No Moral Fraud Involved.

When Boyd found the property in the
same hands after the reorganization as
before. he had right to get the prop
erty for the payment of the debt, even
though there had been judicial SALE de-
clared Justice Lamar. He held that al
though there had been no moral fraud yet
the decree of sale of the property from
the railroad company TO the railway com
pany was void as to a non-consenting
creditor. He added this was true. al
though the reorganization occurred years
ago.
Justice Lurton in dissenting held that
the reorganization was not a mere trans
fer of the property of the Northern Pa
cific railroad stockholders to themselves
as stockholders of the Northern Pacific
Railway Company. but was an effort OF
the stockholders to save the property in
a situation where the property had gone
into the hands Of receiver and where
conditions were steadily growing worse.
Therefore, he added, the sale should
stand as valid against any one who. years
after the sale, came forward to attack
the act to save the property.
