Judge Woolley that the railroad
company should not be taxed with
any portion of the fees, as bond
holder, as had been ordered by Judge
Dickinson
Object to Counsel Fee
'The Appellate Court. through
Judge Woolley's opinion, ordered
that the counsel fee of 100000
awarded to Thomas Raeburn White
and other attorneys for the bond
holders, should be reduced to at least
100000.
1T ordered also that the lower
court. in modifying it's decree as 1t
directed. should cut to $4,000 the
original fee of $4,000 allowed to
David Wallerstein, as special master
in the case.
Litigation between the railroad
and the bondholders of the canal
company has been in the court Tor
years. 1t grew out of the failure
of the railroad to maintain a sink
ing fund to meet the bonds of the
canal company at maturity, as re-
quired by a mortgage.
What Railroads Claim
after Judge Dickinson had order
ed it to create fund of 1928, ,40S.16
which was now increased to more
than S2,00O,O0O through interest &C
cumulating, the railroad presented
claim for $2,590,S54.0 in interest
coupons of the bonds of the canal
company. 1t made the contention
that the coupons were entitled to
priority and should be paid before
the principal of the bends.
Judge Dickinson disallowed the
claim, holding that actions by the
railroad company were responsible
for the maintenance of the fund to
pay the bonds. In this ruling he is
upheld by Judge Nvoolley. In his
decree in favor of the bondholders,
Judge Dickinson directed that $780,
600 be paid out of the fund to coun-
sci for their services, and a fee of
$4,000 to Mr.. Wallerstein, for ar
ranging for the distribution of the
fund, as special master appointed by
the court.
"The enormity of the fees aroused
the interest of the court when the
appeal was argued. In ordering q
reduction, Judge Woolley comment
ed that they exceed fair compen-
sation.'
1.-The masters services said
Judge Woolley, is mainly to be
found in a few brief meetings held
at intervals during a period of less
than three months.
