The cirguit court of ap- peals also further holds that the contract which the telegraph compa- ny has with the Great Northern was and is for perpetual right-of-way and not to be disrupted, but it is allowed that the railway company is entitled to the cost of transporting any and all material which the telegraph com- pany uses in the constructoin of its lines. The litigation involved 825 miles of lines built prior to 1892 and now valued at $2,500,000, The court adds that should the- two companies in dispute fail to agree to the amount of compensation for transporting construction materials, the court will appoint a master in chancery and two commissioners to take testimony and report, and the court will then pass on the matter, The decision is regarded as very important, in view of the litigation of a somewhat simi- lar character now pending in the, east.
