TIIE C, H. & D. LITIGATION

Judge Vandever Appoints James E. Campbell Receiver of the Property, Bat & Restraining Order Is at Once Obtained from JnJge Cox, and the Whole Matter Will Be lousht Over in the Circuit Court. Hamilton, O., Oct 26. Judge Vanderver, of he Bntler eoantv Common Pleas, greeted the tpplication of George K. Duckworth, a stoeVlolder of ths Cincinnati, Hamilton & Daytoa railroad, for the appointment of a receiver, and who also asked fr an injunction against the 1 1 rectors and officers of tha company restraining Ihem from issuing, through Julius Dexter and Vm. M. Ramsey, directors.ao? more obligations f tha company to take up obligations of Ives to Staynor, tba dethroned president and vicepresident. The decision was a complete triumph or Duekworth. In nineteen findings of fact the eonrt decided tbat substantially all of the allegations made by Duckworth were true. The assets of the road were found to be about $8,000,900 and the liabilities about $17,000,000. It was also found that there is practically no money on hand to meet the liabilities, and that the road is insolvent. It is found thac the management was bad. The Judge appointed Hon. James E. Campbell, of Hamilton, member of Congress, to be receiver. This does not end the ease. On tho way down to Cincinnati the defendants stopped at Glendale, fifteen miles north of Cincinnati, and obtained a hearioe In chambers by Judge Joseph Cox, of the Circuit Court. Between 10 and 11 o'clock to-night Jndee Cox issued an order staying and superseding the order of the court at Hamilton, whereby a receiver was appointed. A bond of $5,000 was required of the defendants, and it was given. The ease will come before the three judges of the Ohio Circuit Court at 9 o'clock to-morrow for a bearing on its merits, under exceptions taken at Hamilton. The action of Judge Cox completely expunges, annuls, and wipes out all proceedings of Judge Vandever's Common Pleas Conrt at Hamilton. The case will start to morrow from the very beginning in the Ohio State Circuit Court at Cincinnati, and will be tried over, as if there had never been a hearing of it The Hon. Jas. E. Campbell will cot serve one moment as a receiver of that road. A Novel Proposition. Hardly a day passes that some novel feature does not present'itself in solving the problem how to make general passenger agents maintain rates, or their representatives at outside offices, for it is at outside offices that all the rate-cutting is now done. The latest proposition is that all the strong lines withdraw entirely from second-class business and leave it wholly with the weak roads, or those which are allowed differentials. The Inside of the movement is, of course, to accommodate the passenger business to the interstate law-pools dow cutting do figure in adjusting passenger-rate wars. In commenting on the movement the Cleveland Leader says: During the past six months the strong lines, wbich include the New York Central and the Pennsylvania, have carried about 90 per cent of the first-class business, besides a share of the see-end-class busiuess. This is more than the weak lines are willing to concede, and the prol lem with tnem is to gain a larger business without reducing rates. The proposition submitted to the strong lines is the solution offered. It embodies a serious sacrifice, for the emigrant business is included in the second-class. Perhaps 22 per eent of the west-bound passenger traffic- from New York is second class, and three-fourths of it is emigrant business. With the arrival of every emigrant ship the New York Central and the Penusvlvania each carry Westward car loads if not an entire train of emigrants, and the traffic is very profitable. If the scheme is uccessful with the trunk lines the same plan will probably be tri.id on east-bound 'dustiness from Western citiee, but not until then. There will be a question of differentials to adjudicate at most estern points, and at many of them it may result in the abandonment of second-class business by the strong lines. The lines carrying this business would probably suffer somewhat in popular esteem, but if tbey get the business tbey would doubtless be content Second-class business is often more profitable than first-class because the expense is much lighter. There are no heavy, half-filled sleepers to drag along at a burdensome rate, and the coaches are not so ornately appointed.. The Western Kate War. The efforts making to bring about a reconciliation between the roads running west, northwest and southwest out of Chicago thus far have proved unavailing, and, in fact, the situation is dow more desperate than at any time previous. The trouble all lies in the fact that there are six roads to every important point, and not business enough to give twe first-clas lines employment As a result all are hungry for business, and anxious to keep out of the hands of a receiver, and are willing to take freight at most any rate they can get At present there is do probability of a harmonizing of matters and the bringing about of a maintenance of rates, unless the old and strong lines absorb or subsidize the weak ones. The demoralization of rates out of Chicago, more especially passenger rates, is seriously affecting rates from Indianapolis and other Western railroad centers. A correspondent of the New York Post writes from Chicago regarding the situation there that "the position is made worse by the constantly growing disposition of the public to demand a further reduction in rates by Legislative enactments. As an initance of the increasing disposition to demand class legislation, it is only necessary to note the threats of the so-called jobbers at Lincoln, Neb., who met here a few days since with the managers of the Missouri River roads, and definitely demanded that tbey be given the same rates to Lincoln that were paid to Omaha, although the haul to Lincoln is much longer. When their demand was refused, they informed the managers they would ask the Governor of Nebraska to convene an extra session of the Legislature, and secure the passage of a law compelling the roads to make such rates." Reports to the Interstate Commission. Washington. Oct 20 -The Interstate Commission to day cave a hearing to the representatives of a great many railroads npon the subject of the annual reports to be required from sarriers under Section 20 of the act to regulate commerce. The auditors or other officials of the leading railroads of the country to the number of more than thirty were in attendance and gave their opinions colloquially upon the subject in hand. The first question was with regard to the date at whicn it wonld be best to require the reports to be made, in respect to which there was found to be a preponderance iu favor of ending the railroad rear on June 30, giving the roads catil Sept 30 to make their reports, and still leaving the commission two months in which to frame its report to Congress. In respect to the matters to be reported upon and the form ot the report, the wish was generally eonenrred in that the commission shall in its requirements conform as nearly as possible to the present practices of the railroads and the requirements ot State commissions, though in the further discussion it was found that these differed in a hundred essential details. Difficulties were suggested by almost all the roads represented in th matter of compliance with somn of the exnected requirements. The commission stated that before any form was adopted all the parties interested would be given an opportunity express their views. Changes on the L. E. & W. New York, Oct 26. At the meeting of the directors of the Lake Erie & Western railroad, to-day, C. R. Cnmmings resigned bis office of president, and Calvin S. Briee was elected in liis place, and Nelson Robinson was elected vicepresident in place of Brice. Kir. Cummings still remains In the directory. No action was taken n the dividend, but a resolution was passed that the fiscal year should begin on Jan. 1, and uarterly dividends on the preferred stock were practically decided on at the rate of 4 per cent, per annum, payment to becin at the end of the Srst quarter of the fiscal year. Chicago and St. Laniit Kate Troobles; Chicago, Oct 26. Efforts are still being made to bring about a peaceful solution of the passenger rate troubles between Chicago and t Louis. To-day, to order te orovide farther

safeguards, the arbitrators proposed several amendments to the existing agreement, the roost pertinent of which was that in case any ot the interested lines procured business by unfair means, and the arbitrators are satisfied that such is the ease, they may award the whole or a part of the revenue derived to the aggrieved lines. The Wabash makes it a condition of its acceptance of the amendments that the Alton pay over to it the $350 received from the transportation of a certain theatrical troupe. There is a probabilitv that the Alton will refuse this, and a possibility tbat a fight may not be averted.

Local and State Notes. Tne station on the Cambridge City branch of the J., M. & I-, heretofore known as St Johns, will hereafter be called Fenns. Edward Webb, passenger conductor on the J., M. & I., on Tuesday evening was married to Miss Marietta Hilton at Jefferson ville, Ind. Harry Kelaey succeeds H. A. Laeey as assistant to J. A. Granger, passenger agent of the Wabash road, bis headquarters to be Toledo. Cattierine Herron has been appointed agent of the Pennsylvania company at Port Pitt on the P., C & St L. division, vice Michael Herron, deceased. The L.. N. A. & C. received from the Rogers locomotive-works, on Tuesday, a first-class mogul engine, which fills the order for twelve engines placed with these works some months ago. Tbe I. B. & W. earned the second week in September $61,SC9, an increase over earnings corresponding period of 1836. $6,275. The Ohio & Mississippi earned $97,618; increase this year, $2,722. Receiver McNulta, of the Wabash, has issued an order to the effect tbat notwithstanding tbe fact that tbe road is in the hands of a receiver, employes will be compelled to pay their just debts. At most of the shops on the Pennsylvania system the employes are working thirteen hours daily. Owing to the heavy traffic on the road, and the great demand for cars, repair work is pushed. The understanding in freight circles is that navigation will not close before the 15th of next montn. However, after the first of the month no insurance can be effected on freights carried by lake vessels. Chief Engineer Morris, of the C, I., St L & C, yesterday commenced on the plans for a new freight denot at Lawrenceburg and a passenger dnpot. as well. The freight depot is to cost $2,500, the passenger depot $3,000. On Monday next the L,, N. A. & C. people will change the gauge of the branch of tbe road leading from the main line to the Bedford stone quarries from narrow to standard width, and in the early spring the entire line from Bloomington to Switz City will be converted into a standard-gange road. Tbe interchange of traffic between the I. & St. L. and the C., I., St, L. & C, it is stated, is reaching thirty-five to forty car loads of freight per dav, and the I. & St. L. management and that of the G, L, St. L. & C. are feeling cicely over the success of their traffic relatione in passenger business, as well. One passenger for St Locis, Peoria or Chicaso yields to the road carrying him more than three passengers do who go to tbe Pacific coast on the prevailing rates, yetthe passenger agents will work harder to secure the California passenger than a passenger on the local rate to a point on their own line. The Pennsylvania company will establish la the Claypool block a new telegraph office in which messages will be sent and received over the same wire at tbe same time. W. G. Kelley, who is an expert in operating the Duplex system of telegraphing, who is now in Columbus, is to be placed in charge of tbe wires at this point dating from Nov. 1. Leslie P. Farmer, general passenger agent of th Erie lines, accompanied by associate officials in the passenger department, is making a Western trip taking soundings. He confirms the report that W. C. Rienerason will, on Nov. 1, assume the duties of assistant-general passenger ngentwith headquarters at Cincinnati. This promotion is eertaiuly a deserved one. The J., M. & I. is making extensive improvements in the way of bridges and stone arches along its line. The new bridge at Columbus, wbich is construeted with four spans, 150 feet in length each, is completed, and three other bridge, varying in length from 150 feet te 300 feet, and eleven wooden structures over smaller streams, have given place to stone arches of sufficient capacity to let any volume of water through wbich they will be required to. The impression prevails in railroad circles tbat the proposed advance on export rates on the first of tbe month will be short lived, if it occurs at alL Western shippers, should an attempt be made to enforce the advance, will simply bill their stuff to the seaboard on what is known as a domestic way-bill, and the steamer agents will take them up and then forward tbe business on any rate they may see fit Rather than leave port with half a cargo they will drop tbe rate to a figure which will make the combined domestic and ocean rate no higher than the present rates. There has been much complaint of late over the delay of freights at St Louis, both east and west-bound. For some weeks past there has been a blockade at the bridge. This has been eaused by passenger business interfering with freight trade. First, the Grand Army of the Republic gathered at St. Louis; the next week tbe President was there on exhibition, and the third week the State fair, and tbe passenger business was so heavy during the three weeks tbat the bridge was crowded with passenger trains. Freight traffic has reached such a tonnage over the roads leading to the Southwest that it seems imperative that another bridge should be constructed over the river. The New York Mail and Express says: 'There is a seeming contradiction in tbe statement regarding Ives & Staynor's note to President Wade, of tbe Cincinnati, Wabash & Michigan, for $800,000 balance due for controlling interest in tbe road. By the terms of tbe contract it is stated that President Wade proposes bringing suit to recover the balance of the payment One would suppose that if he had $400,000 in cash and his stock, as well, that he would prefer retaining both than suing for the privilege of delivering the stock for two-thirds as much as be originally agreed to sell it for. So he does. Mr. Wade will not resort to litigation only to free tbe stock from any assumed claims of Ive & Stavnor, or to secure a judicial recognition of the ownership of the Block, which the contract gives him. Tbe new engines building at the Panhandle shops are all of a new class of unusually heavy engines, eacb weighing 107.000 pounds. Previously the heaviest engines in nse on the Pennsylvania svstem weighed but 105.000, but within the last year quite a number of heavier ones have been put in service. The ordinary class of freight engines in use on the Panhandle weigh from 80.000 to 90.000 pounds, and the handling capacity of the new class of locomotives is about 8 per cent greater than these. In order to permit the introduction of the heavier locomotives the trestles and bridges on tbe Panhandle have been strengthened the past season, and tbe extra wear and tear on the track and road-bed has been taken into account Bv building heavy engines much is gained in saving expense and facilitating tbe movement of freight A few mornings since M. E. In calls, president of the C, L, St L. & C, dropped into the city at 4 A. M. , coming in from Chicago without posting the boys that he would be here on that morning. At the time the clerical force and in fact persons holding more important positions than tbat of a clerk should be at work, Mr. Ingalls happened around. A half hour passed and one or two made their appearance. Eight o'clock came and more men appeared at their respective det-k, and by half past S each man was at his post President Ingalls being there was much of a surprise, but the manner he laid the rules down to the boys was more of a surprise, and before he got through his general talk, without exception, the boys came to the conclusion that if they were to work for the "Big Four" road the coming year they wonld need to earn their salaries. Good judges of road-beds who have recently passed over the Vandalia system entire state that the track is in fine shape to go into winter. The traffic over the lines has been so heavy that the earnings justified tbe management in putting everything in perfect order. Since the Ives party let go their hold the number of section men has been increased, additional work-trains put on, and, as a consequence, the road-bed is now in better condition than at any time in its history. All the power and cars that the company can command are in constant service, and indications are that they will be for some months to come. In all departments everything is reported to be moving along with the former smoothness, and were it not alluded to occasionally by the press the temporary troubles which resulted from what was known as the Ives-Staynor deal would be forgotten. Mrs. Lizzie Baldwin, of Brazil, Ind., has been, granted letters patent on an improvement in coal cars, the invention of A. O. Baldwin, deceased. The improvement consists in a roof, side and end inelosnres to coal ears, or flats, as a protection from exposure to the weather, thievery and other dangers. The ends of tbe car are similar to those of the ordinary box-car, serving as attachments for the roof, whieh is constructed on the self-supporting principal, by means of longitudinal and transverse beams, diagonal and transversa braces and truss-rods. The side of the ear is a continuous door, made of longitudinal slate, bound by metallic braces, and adjusted to the car body by a series of hinees exteriorlv attached. Through the longitudinal center of the ear, near the roof, passes a Shalt, cno eul exteniiag outside tbo end of the

ear. where a cog-wheel attachment is operated Vjr a crank for tbe lowering and raising of tha door, or side of the car.
