This proposition bas been uniformly insisted on by the plaintiff, and to deny {t now would bea gross breuch of faith towards the Corporation. Second. If the foregoing p'opositinn be correct, this Court bas no authori*y to inquire into the reasons tor the exeretse of this power. Those reasons ai 1, The gross Drach of trust by which the grant was effected origizally. 2. The want o: authority in the Corporation to make the grant, as acjudged by the Supreme ond Superior Courss. 3, The contempt of the process ot the Superior Court, which was committed in maxing the grant. 4, Toe clear inability of the Common Cva: ita authority over the streets. 5.

Jedges Strong, Roosevelt and Cierke, Apillos R, Wemere and Others vs, Miner C. Story and Others.—The szgument in this caze was then commenced, the plaintiffs appealing from the decision of Judge Co vies, alirming the right of the defendants to constrac: and use the Ninth Avenue Railroad through G-eeawieh and » Washington atreets. Ex Judge Beardsity, John Vaa Buren and Heary Hnl- ton appear for the piaiotrffs, and the deendants are re- presented by their counsel, Cuarles O’Coaor, Esq., and Mr. Monell. ‘Mr. Van Buren argued that the plaintiffs ile this com- plaint to obtala re.ief against the contemplated acts of the defendante, which, »2 is claimed, trreaven serious fojury to their rights.’ Those rights are:— ‘lat: As taxpayers and corporatora, to restzain any un- lawful disposition of the corporate propertr. 24, As nol¢ers and occupants ot property on the line of Greensica and Washington streets, to restrain aoy acts in esid etr:ets which would interrnpt the passage or interfere with their legal esjoyment of thelr property The plaintifis claim to do the acte which they are atout to perfurm under the authority of ox alleged reso Jution of the Com non Cour cil. It this is a valid antaor- ity, it constitutes a defence to the action: ad whether it is valid or not, the plaintiffa have an odvious right to irqui.e. No question can ibly arise in this case as to the nectrsity of making the Attorney General a prose- cutirg party, This not being an astion to restrain a corporation from exerciing a franchie, or ‘o forfeit ita «barter, or in tact a cuit against the corp roti at all, It isan action by certain private individals against cer- tain other private individuals to restratu an apprehended violation of private rights. Nor will this Court now hear an argument on the qaeation of the nght of one axpayerin penslfof hineelf and such others as ebr0se to becme parties to tue action; to restraia = ilegai d'sposition of the coporate property, even by the corp) ration itself, And when an illegtt interference with & public street is ‘threatened, an owner of pro- perty upon the stree: hes uniformly bean adjadged by this Court entitlei to restrain suob intacf-reace, the evidence shows thet the piainwifs, in the year 1853, paid exceeding $1:3,000 for taxes on their property in ths city; also, that they seve:a'ly own and occupy property upen the Jine of Greenwich or Washington streets, an: hare so owned and occupied for many years past. Also, that toe construction of tha proposed road would injace the premices of the plaintiffs ia a Cegree, aad to an ex- tent which thisCourt at special term atanding in place of & jury—found end Getermined—weuld ba ‘‘a private nuisance as respects these plaintiffs.” Als», that re- sponsible indiviousle offered to coustruct the propose i road, and pay to the Corporation $100 license tee on each car, and charge but three cents fare, instead of the license fee of $20 per car, and the five cents fare charzet anc permitted in the alleged grant to the de‘endants. Other testimony was offered at the trial by the pasiatits, showing bad faith in the making of the alleged grant to the ceferdante, but objested to, excluded by ths Court, and exception tak®h. No testimony was off-red on the part of the defencants, showiog why the alleged grant was made to them, or why more advantageous offers were rejected, o: why no competition aas allowed. Notwithstancing, it appeared from the ve‘o of the Masor that their attention was directed to these promtneat op Jecions to the alleged grant. The grant in question was originally paceed in the Board of Aldermen on November 22, 1862, a4 a gzant to Kipp & Brown. It was amended @ Board of Asristania, oy substitutiog the names of the defendants, and ia several other important particu- lars, and pas-ed December 6, 1862. The terms of oflice of the members of this Board of Assistant Aldermen expired by Jaw on the first Monday of January, 1852. On January 5, 1863, the resolution ‘thus amended was pacsed by the Board of Aldermen On January 12, 1853, it was returned to the Board ot Aldermen by Mayor Westervelt, with his otjestions, On November 14, 18::;, it was agai paseed by the Board of Aldermen, ani notwithstancing such objections. On De- cember 28, 1854, it was concurred In by the then Board of Assistant Aldermen, notwithstandi:g said Mayor's objectivns. The offer heretofore referred to was present- €q to the Board of Assistant Aldermen by the President thereof, on November 23, 1863. On November 29, 1853, petition numerously signed by owners and occupants on Greenwich and ‘ashicgton streets, was presented to eaid Bourd of Assistant Aldermen, requesting hearing cn the subject of thie grant. Such hear- ing was pi but never granted. The proat value ot the privileges sought to be ovntorrei on the defendants is shown by the fact that the proposed railroad will be the only one extending to the southerly extremity of the city of New York, and the right of way for ite entire length, (exseeding twelve miles,) ‘s grant- ¢d without any compensation whatever, unless the license fee of $20 o per cer be called such compenss ion. he cans was tried before Justics Cowles, com nencing Jane 15, 1866, and the testimony was closed on the 26th of name month. The cause was summed up on July 17, 19 and 20, 1965. On Angust 14, 1855, the Justice de- cided the cause. The judgment ordered was, that the prelimira:y injanction, previously granted, shoutd be made perpetual, so as to restraia the construction of the rroposed railroad, intermediate the southerly line of Coxtlsndt and the northerly line of Reade streets, oa the ground found by the Court, that ‘intermediate Reade and Cortlandt street, the construction of the road would be a private nuisance, as respects these plaintiffs.” The preliminary injunction was “in all otber respects diseolved.’’ Subseauentiy to this decisicn Justice Cowes ordered @ re-argumsn% upon two propositions stated by jum. The first of thore questions was thus atated py Justice Cowles :—" Assuwirg that the effec: of running railroad cars through Warhington and Greenwich etre sts, intermediate Reade and Cortinndt streets, would operate to obstruct the plaintiffs in approaching their atores and piaces of business, as stated in the opinion read t> counsel in the case.” Have the plaintiffs a right to an injunction? After such re-argument, and cn september 27, 1855 his Honor the Judge delivered the opinion, oraering judgment to be entered dissolving the pralici nary injunction, and dismissing the compiaint.
