RETAINS ORIGINAL IDENTITY.
Merged Railroad AmenabIe to Laws of
State 1t Was INCORPORATED In,

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Oct. 1O.-An opin-
Ssere today in which it is held that a rail-
boad incorporated in one state and after
wards merged or consolidated with rail-
roads incorporated in other states, retains
purposes, its citizenship adheres in the
state which granted the original charter
!. Under this ruling, a case removed by
the railroad company from the state
court to the federal, on the ground of
diverse citizenship, may be remanded to
the state court on the plea of jurisdiction.
The opinion is given by Amos NJ Thayer,
circuit Judge; Elmer B. Adams and John
F. Philips, district judges.
The decision was given in a suit against
the Wabash by live stock firm that lost
some hogs as the result of a wreck near
Carrollton,, Mo. The railroad company
removed the case to the federal court.
