this time set up the defense that
the Ohio courts had no jurisdiction
in the case and the road was sus-
tanned. This now leaves holders

Cincinnati, Ohio, July - By a
decision in the United States court
Of appeals today, the Wabash rail
way will be compelled to pay
5000 900, which is the amount of
the principal and compound inter
est on 81 50, 900 bonds issued by the
road in 1879, and bought by Henry
l.. Compton Of Toledo, Ohio
The bonds We're part of an issue
of 5000 900 equipment bonds made
by the old Toledo and Wabash
Railroad Company in lSoa.
Compton has been dead several
years, and his widow, Mrs, Ellchcn
Compton, has continued the suit
although it is said that the real
owners Of the bonds at present is a
firm Of Wall street brokers'
Compton recovered judgment
against the road in the Ohio SUI
preme court. The road took the
case to the supreme court Of the
United States, which held that
Compton had the right to sell prop
crty of the road in Ohio to compel
payment Of his judgment. The
road has since been fighting ON the
theory that the profits of the Ohio
portion Of the road at the time the
original suit was filed were not
sufficient to meet the payment OF
this bond issue.
The holders of the remainder of
the one million dollar issue of bonds
will not be able TO collect a cent, It
