It appears frow tho court rocords here that tho partios holding tho bonds, who arescattered all over the country, aléo hold two trust doods of the prop- erty of the Company, ouc for $1,000,000 and the othior for $600,000. ~ 1t sppears to bo tho provail- ing opmion that the bondholders Lave taken Ppotuession TO SAVE THEMSELVES AGAINST LOSS, which right is guaranteed thom in tho doods tho morment the intorest ou tho bonds is duo and un- pud.
