Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
NORFOLK, Va. October 4.-Exactly at
II o'clock today, the hour set for meeting
at the s. A. L. railway general offices here,
by which the majority stockholders Of the
Seaboard and Roanoke railroad, parent line
of the present Seaboard system, were to
vote to merge said Seaboard and Roanoka
properties fully and completely with the
Seaboard Air Line properties, destroying
the corporate existence of the smaller road,
D. A. Kelsey. special court agent, served
upon President James A. Barr and General
Counsel Leigh r. Watts of the s. A. L. sys-
tenn an Injunction granted by Federal
Judge Waddill stopping the stockholders
meeting called for today and enjoining any
acts that might result in the formal merger
of the Seaboard and Roanoke railroad with
the Seaboard Air Line and the destruction
of the corporate existence of the Seaboard
and Roanoke.
The case which is brought by Charles
Chauncey of Montgomery county, Pa, IS
to block plans on foot by the Blair inter-
ests in New York, which recently secured
the holdings of John Shelton Williams, for
mer president, and ]. William Middendorf
of Baltimore, former vice president and
director of the Seaboard Air Line system.
Complainant c .auncey claims to be the
holder of $1,000 in Certificates of indebt-
edness" issued by the Seaboard and Roa-
noke railroad May 4, 1886 to the amount OF
$690O00 with $2S5,0O outstanding at pres
ent, and says that these certificates being
unsecured by deed of trust or mortgage,
there is nothing left to secure the holders
but the assets of the Seaboard and Roanoke
railroad, which remains entirely solvent,
but the property of which it is sought to
merge with the Seaboard Air Line, the
latter system having already given a mort
gage on all of it's properties owned at pres
ent and to be acquired in the future, the
said mortgage being for $62, 500 600 of per
cent bonds, with additional Indebtedness
of $4,000, 600 in collateral trust obligations.
1t is claimed that the said per cent
bonds are now selling for more than 50 per
cent of their face value. The complainant
refuses to accept compromise of any kind
with the Seaboard merger, and the case is
set for hearing here November at noon,
though the Seaboard Air Line, with five
days notice, can move for an earlier hear
ing if it sees fit to do so.

Man-Hunt in Connecticut.

A dispatch from Hartford Conn, last
night says: The biggest man-hunt that
has ever taken placeIin Connecticut is on
in East Glastonbury. The state police force.
headed by Chief Egah, and many of the
residents, heavily armed. are searching
for John c. whipple, who two weeks ago
shot and seriously wounded neighbor,
James starmer, and last week shot State
Policeman Louks, who was attempting to
arrest him for the crime
1t is suspected also that Whipple has
burned two barns, and consequently all
barns stocked with the seasons crops are
guarded night and day by armed farm
hands. 1t is believed that Whipple is hid
ing in a cave in Mott hill, one of a range
of mountains several miles in length.
If todays search is unsuccessful blood
hounds will be employed. Farmers driving
along the country roads with loads of pro-
duce go armed, and the same is true of the
men in the fields, who do not care to risk,
unarmed an encounter with Whipple, owing
to his reputation as a desperate character.

The Congressional Delegation.

New JERSEYS present delegation in Con-
gress is composed of seven republicans and
three democrats. The next delegation will,
in all probability, be made up OF eight re-
publicans and two democrats, with the pos
sibility of one of these two not being rep
resentative.
The sixth district is represented by VIII
liam Hughes, a democrat, who defeated
William Barbour two years ago. Barbour
was one of those men who thought that
money brought everything, and Hughes
took the democratic nomination after two
others had declined to run and won by
nearly 1900 majority. The republicans THIS
time, however, have nominated as Hughes
opponent a popular young lawyer of Pater-
son by the name of Henry c. Allen, who
will probably represent that district in the
next Congress.
The following republican representatives
will be returned without doubt:
First, Henry c. Loudenslager; second,
John ]. Gardner; third. Benjamin F.
Howell; fourth, Ira w. Wood; fifth, Charles
n. Fowler; seventh, Richard w. Parker;
eighth. William II. Wiley. The tenth dis
trict will return Allan L. McDermot, demo-
crat.
In the ninth district Representative Allan
Benny, who is serving his first term. and
whose majority was only 800 two years ago.
is being opposed by Marshall Van Wrinkle
the popular assistant district attorney of
Jersey City, and II is toss of a copper as
TO which one will win.
OF the seven state senators to be elected
the republicans will probably elect five and
the democrats two, which will make the
senate stand: republicans, ID: democrats, s.
The present house of assembly is composed
of thirty-eight republicans and twenty-five
democrats, and the next assembly will be
hardly changed from this condition.
There are some petty fights in two or
three of the counties, owing to the manner
in which some of the candidates secured
their nominations, but this will have no eff
feet upon the general result.
The legislature which will be elected will
without a doubt return John Kean to the
United States Senate for the six years be-
ginning March l.
