A motion was mado by Orendorff and by Gapen & :Ewing to have Mr. Hinokley, tho Recelver, removed, and for the Court to appoint the proe- ent Directors of the road, nine in number, to manago tho road, undor tho dircotion of the Court, thoy giving the, necossary bonds for the faithful performance of their duty.

It waa ovidont that, if the foro-~ clonura took place, the road would' pass into the handa of the Illinois Central Railrond Company, and all the stock and liens on the read would be cutout, Tho objoct of tho founders of the road was to provide a competing line for trafic going Eaatward, WITHOUT PABSING TIIOUGH ONICAGO, and this motion was an offort to preserve that outlet, running cast from Gilman, ~ Naw, if the Ponnsylvania Compauy can have the road undor the control of persons who ars favorable to tuiy routo, which runs into the lines under their mnnl!fomonz. they will como forward nnd lift the Gilman Ioad out of its presont difliculty, but thoy will not do it whilo ¢ho road is under tho management of an interest unfriendly to them, Tho rond, under_tho cantomplated- chango of | managers, would still be under the guardianship of the conrt, with all the ocurity that could bo domanded for its proper admiufstration.

THE OPPOSITION TO TILE MOTION, Douglas & Willlame, ropresenting a Iatge numbor of thio bondholdors, and the ouly bond- Loldors who aro reprosonted in tho case, ro- sisted tho application, They saw no nocessity for a change, and, even if thoro was to bo a chiange, of all peoplo in the world thoy. did not want tho old Directors to have the rond sgnin. Those Diroctors said thoy - would makeo arraugemonts for- paying tho intorost. Very well ; that waa all that was wanted. Thoy (the counsol) would assist them in doiug so ail they could, but there was no assurando that, by put- tiug tho road lnto tho hands of tho Dircctors, they would place it on a paying basis, whien: they ‘liad control of it for threo yoars and did not pay a cent of intorest. ¢ s NOT REFRESENTING THE ILLINOIS OENTRAL, Tho counsel denied that thoy represented the interests of tho Illinois Contral Knilrond Come flu:f in this cose, but only such of the .bond- oldors in tho majority as hiad omployed them, Mr. Williama etated that ho had: just boon in- formod that judgmontsbad boeu takenagainet the Gilman, Clitton & Springfiold Railroad Compauy, Dy default in tho United States Conre, at Spring- fiold, within & fow,days, to the amount of nearly $800,000.
