THE COURTS. Mandamusing the Toledo, Wabash and Great Western Railway Company. FIGHT OVER CONVERTIBLE BONDS. Delving the Depths of the Emma Mine Speculation. RALLWAYS AND PRIVATE PROPERTY, Legal Battledoor and Shut- tlecock. On the application of Mr. Henry 8. Bennett, coun- sel for the equipment bondholders of the old Toledo and Wabash Railroad, Judge Brady yesterday granted an ex parte order directing the directors of the To- ledo, Wabash and Westera Railway Company to show cause in Supreme Court, Chambers, on the 20th inst. why a mandamus should not issue against them, From the petition on which the order was made it ap- pears that Benjamin A. Ham, John W. Sullivan and Gustavas A, Rollms have been appointed a committee to prosecuto on behalf of themselves and other hold- ers of the equipment bends of the old Toledo and Wabash road, That road became subsequently merged with other roads into the Toledv, Wavash and Western Raijway Company, and ander the articles of consolidation that company assumed all the obligations and bonds for which each of the component roads were liable at the time of and before the consolidation. This aggregat indebtedness amounted to somewhere in the neighbor- hood of $15,000,009, which included the bonds and lia- bilities of eight different railroads, including those of the Toledo and Wabash. After this consolidation went into effect the President and directors of the pew com- pany concluded to tund this immense debt, issue new bonds of the consolidated company and retire and can- cel all the floating bonds of the various smatler com- panies which were merged jn it, So they created a grand consolidated mortgago of their entire property situated in different States, whereby, in consideration of $20,000,000, they conveyed tne property to two truste aud, upon this as security, they were to issue consolidated bonds to the amount of $20,000,000, which they were to offer in exchange for like amounts of the floating bonds of the smaller roads which bad been merged. ‘the equipment bondnolders of the old Toledo and Wabash road, hold- ing $600,000 of indebtedness, were omitted in the dis- Iribution of these consolidated bouds, and though they ciaimeu their right to the exenange, which the new company never denied, yet, under one pretext or al other, the exchange was put off from time to time, the equipment boudholders meanwhile patiently waiting tse action of the directors. Shortly ulter this consoli- dated mortgage was executed the company concluded to puta second mortgage of $5,000,000 on their prop erty, und, to tempt buyers, they’ made the bonds issued = thercon payable im gold. About a year ago the company defaulted in pay- ing interest on these gold. bonds, and fore- closure proceedings were institufed, under which the entire roud was gold, subject to the lien of the grand consolidated mortgage, It then became the interost of the purchasers under the foreclosure proceeding to prevent the equipment bondholders from obtaining tho consolidated bonds im exchange for their equipment bonds, for without that exchange the equipment bor holders would have no lien ou the property, but iu &: of an exchange their lien would be prior to tho goid bondholders’. While these foreclosure proceedings were pending a committee of the stockholders aud equipmont bondholders, styling themselves a “‘pro- tection committee,” Organized to oppose » these foreclosure procecdings, on the ground that they would haye the eflect of é@xtinguisbing their rights. A Mr. Ashley, who subsequently became and now is a director of the Board, acted as chairman of that committee, and he first most violently zealously advocated the interests which he was elected to protect; but through some mysterious arrangement his zeal abated, and to tho astonishmert and chagrin of the equipment donaholders, as plaintiffs claim, he went over to the enemy and consented to the sale of the road under the foreclosure proceedings and was elected a directur of the newly organized compauy. The equipment bondholders in this condition o: affairs organized « new committee, with a new chwirman, and through their counsel both in this State and Ohio tre now seeking by a mandamus and @ bill in equity to maintain and enforce their rights. Thi petition, whictris signed and verified by Messrs, Hi sullivan & Rolling, first sets forth the incorporation of the old Toledo and Wabasn roi which originally twaued these equipmes id its su G hore mergement into the Toledo, bash and Western Railway Company, which assumed the psymeat of thoge bonds; second, the making of*the consolidated morigaxe aud the appointinent of trussees to define and carry out the provisions which authorized and permitted the exchange of the equipment bonds for the new copsolidated bonds; third, the oMcial report ot the directors announcing to th ipment bond- holders when and how the exchange coulc bo made; ‘ourth, the fact that the directors and officers have ~wiused to make the exchange, nd = tne frequent application which the equipm bond. dolders have made to them for r Afth, that the directors of the company made a new gold bond mortgage, which was inferior to the consolidated mortgage; sixth, itavers that the company defiuited on that mortgage, and that, im consequence, 1t was foreciosea; seventh, it then avers the organization of this Protection Committee, under the leadership of O. D. Ashley a8 chairman, to oppose those foreclesuro roceedings, and recites at length the manifesto which fie put forth on that occasion; eighth, it recites the {act that Mr, Ashley went over to the exemy and lett the cquipment bondholders in the lurch; ninth, it recites the sale under the foreclosure proceedings with the connivaueo of Mr. Ashley, and the eflort made to extinguish the rights of those men whom be was pledged to protect; tenth, it sets forth the election of the new Board of Trustees, giving their names and residences, and the fact that they wave in their possession nsigned blank forms of the con- vertible bonus Which they retuse to siga aad wo the equipment bondholders, It also names and residences of the trustees whose duty it to idorse said bonds. It then sets forth in conclu- sion tue fact that there is a new arrangement of Ash- Jey and his associates to go into effect by which tue equipment vonds are to be extinguished and tbat the equipment bondholders are utterly remedyiess unless the Court interposes by the summary remedy of mandamus to compel tho directors and trustees to 5.gn and issue the bonds. Tne order granted by Judge Brady is directed to the Toledo, Wabash and Wostern Railway Company, to James A, Roosevelt, its Preside and io O. D, Asbley, [. M. Adama, . Field and number of others, its directors, and orders them to show cause why a mandainus should not issue to com- pel them to signiand iver the convertiblo bonds to the equipment bondholders represented by the plain- tuff ‘The whole «mount represented is about $600,000. THE GREAT EMMA MINE BUBBLE. The suit of the Emma Silver Mining Company (lim- ited) of England against Trenor W. Park, Henry H. Baxter and William M, Stewart was continued yester- day, before Judge Wallace, in the United States c cuit Court, E. W. Stoughton, for the plaintiffs, con- tinued his argument, which was opened tue day be- fore, occupying the whole of the morning session, Mr. Stoughton said that on the previous day he had come to that stage where arrangements had been con. cluded with Baron Albert Grant looking to the organization of the company, and was abou, to show under what circumstances the direc- tors were brought ip. Before going farther, ho would say that Stowart was a party to the arrangement and subscribed to the agreement by which Grant undertook, for £100,000, to Inanch the matter on England. Under the arrangement Grant & Co. were to have $500,000 for procaring $5,000,000 of sab- scriptions, and the amount was to be paid to Park & Co. after deducting the £100,000 spoken of. Had it been Known that a certain hidden party was to receive one-fifth of the total subscription the concern would have been looked upou with distrust and would not havo realized a dollar, The English law framed to prevent such (rauds requires that all contra of this character should be detuiled on the prospectus. Such a tajlure, ander the English law, was a [taud, and not long simce a verdict to this effect was given against «Baron = Grant. Mr. Stonghton then showed how the Board of Directors was formed and said the evideneo would show for what yeasuos prominent men were tnducod to lend their names tothe enterprise, Ono of these reasons was the lact that the American Minister was to be one of the directors, Mr. Scbenck’s intluence was secured by the promise of 10,000 shares and a guarantee of two per cent a month on each sbaro or their par v: ae he should desire. This $50,000 of stock out $9,000 por nnnum to Mr. Schenck, who certainly made a mistake by going into the concern on any fi notations. Colone: turt, of the British Guards, and a member of Parliament atthe time, was induced by Baron Grant to secure the names ol Mr. Anderson, member of Parliament for G w; Ke Bridge Willams, M, P.; B, Leigh-Pemberton, MP. and John ©, Staniey, a fellow officor of Colonel Stuart's, as directors, All these gentie- me with =the Mr. Willams, counsel said believed in Park's representations, After the money was ob! , feeling thatin cnse Park's representations should prove untrue that they would be able to hold him criminally, required a statutory statement from him, He objected, but it was inade, and would be produced at the proper time.

This suit 18 brought in the name of the company and tor tho benetit of the shareholders—a changing body, it is true, but it is necossury to bring it im that way. fn te tall of 1872 Mr. Anderson, chairman of the company, came to this country to defend the suitin regard to the tule of the land, contested by the Illinois Mining Com pany, which, however, was compromiged by the pay- ment of $100,000, The notes ior the payment of this money caine into the hunds of Mr. Park, and the mine has been sold under an attachment taken out by him- solt—probhbly sold in his interest, All the company got was eleven or twelve dividends, and it is for you Jo seo justice done in this matter, Baron Albert Grant's testimony, taken in London, was tuen read. Mr. Grant testified that in the year 1871, a short time previous to the organization of the company, he met Trenor W. Park, who was to pay the | witness a certain percentage jor certain services there was a written and supplementary contract; should say that he thude much lees from the transac: tion than he expected; Colonel Stewart was paid to pro- cure directors; among the payments were some to Colonel Stewart ani Park: 5,000 shares were bought | im and taken by Park; the outlines of the first prospec: tus were given by Mr, Coates, but he did not know who prepared them; it was afterward discussed by the witness, Park and Stewart, and alterations were made by Mr. Park; Mr. Stewart was always pres- ent at any interviews belore he returned to the United States; Professor Blake's report was not sens out with the prospectus, but that of Professor Silliman was; witness did not know bow much was patd Professor Silliman; witness’ profits under the secontl contract were between £30,000 and £40,000. (Objected to and allowed) Witness aid not think that be was paid more than £200,000 by Park at Jillerent times; ho paid Coates £10,000; Jay Cooke & Co, received a sum of money, it boing represented to Mr. Park that they haa ® prior right to negotiate the galo of the mine. On Mr. Grant’s cross-examination be testified that he beheved 10 the prospectus issued, and that the mine was worth thrce times the amount stated. This closed the proceedings of the session and the Court adjourned, GRAND CENTRAL SMOKE HOUSES. From the time when the Grand Central Depot and its appurtenances were propcsed to be erected much dissatisfaction at its location was frecly expressed by the property owners in the vieinity., Some slight legal opposition was made, but it soon fell to the ground, and m due course of time the magnificent proportions of the depot o’ersvadowed all around it, while the smoky walls of its engine houses and workshops fringed tho streets for blocks in {ts vicinity. Among the property owners to whom these changes were un- acceptable wos Mrs, Elizabeth R, Cogswell, who owns a house at the point where the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad Company in- tersects Forty-sixth street, Dircctly im rear of her house, ana on Forty-seventh street, 1s an engine house of this company, which has been scattering its dust and emoke around, irrespective of persons or occ. sions. Having stood the personal annoyance and de- reciation of her property as long as she cogld, Mrs. logswell determined to take the bull by thé horns. Through her counsel, Messra, Lewis Johnson and ‘nne, she kas commenced a suit against in which she seeks a judgment that the in the rear of her building be ubated ag a | buisance. Her assertions, on which the suit 1 based, + are ‘o the effect that the building of which she com- plains is Oited with engines and tenders, that at ail hours of the day and might they are re )gan and Out, so that she apprebends great danger at they may run through the Wall into her prem..es; that | these engines let off steam in and about the butidings; that coal dust therefrom is scattered in every direc- tion tn and about the premises; that soot, cinders and smoke Oli her premises at all times and seasons; that disagreeable and odor of soot con- but engine nous eciation of the valu her property in { this condition of aflairs, she atates that Tatiroad buildings were erected 1n 1871 her house was worth $32,000, and routed jurnished for $4,500; that now she could not sell it for more than $15,000, and ig unablo to get a tenant to remain in it any length of time, although reating it furnished at $1,200 a year, This whole state of affaira she claimsto be a violation of her rights on the part of the railroad company; thal impairs her right to the enjoyment of her property and lie, an “real nuts- ance,”’ and she wants the Cours to so declare, FROM FRYING PAN INTO FIRE. A number of indictments were found in the United States Circuit Court against Phillip Ronzone, charging him with undervaluing imported goods. Ex-Jndge A. J. Dittenhoefer, defendant's counsel, moved to quash the indictments, which motion was granted. The United States District Attorney then filed an information, a proceeding which in some cases takes the place of an indictment. A motion to quasb this intormation was denied, and yesterday the defendant presented bimeelt in court, surrendered himselt on bis own bonds and asked thatthe bonds be cancelled. The request was granted and the lendant then, by advice of bis counsel, left the court room, thus virtually becoming a fugitive trom justice, On mo- tion of District Attorney Foster Judge Benedict issued w Woch warrant, and the defendant diately after rearrested. He was then plead, but apon advice of bis counsel ueciined to do 80, ground of want of jurisdiction in the court.

In yesteruay’s Henatp was published the purport of the affidavit and allegations of Mre. Christine Brenon, who is secking a divorce, with alimony, from her bus- band. Her story was a piti/ul one and was likely to cause the public generally to look upon Mr. Brenon as anything buta loving spouse, Yestoraay afternoon Mr. Brenon told his side of the story, which was sub- stantially as follows :— He claims that this {s Mrs. Brenon’s second appear. ance in public print in au endeavor to rob him of his good name and ruin his charucter, after having ruined him financtally. He says that the statements made are direct perversions of facts, and necessarily con- traaict themselves; that she claims ‘ill usage and blows,” when a blow from him would have been pre- cious ¢2 her if accompanied as 1t recessarily must bave been, with a bruise to parade as a banner, anem- biem of cruelty; but sho sought a blow in vain, not- withstanding sbe doluged him with cold water while in bed, opened windows, &e. He ridicules tho idea of ‘jumping on her,” woigh- he says he does, 199 pounds, and thinks if he had it would @ been beyond ber power to supply the slunder which sho did, except through some m djum of tho spirit land, Mr. Bronon says be astrictly honorable man, as some of his Irtenda claim, His bemg credited of possessing $40,000 worth of real and personal estate ho wishes bo could make a fact. Mr. Brevon furth 8 that when he first became acquainted with his wife she was in the dressmaking business ou Fulton strect, Ho had hired a hall room im the same house, adjoining ber apartments, which bedroom; they got into a bowing 90g on the stairs morning and e¢en- ing. One evening, he states, sbe knocked un bis door, and, with tears in- ber cyes, begged the loun of $20, which he, in his usual cruel menner, granted, A low atter he loaned bi $10 ~more. After ahe considered herself privileged to his room and knock whenever advice or a: was wanted. Claiming ber business was leading her into debt she desired to leave the city, and borrowed again from him, this time the sum of $100, to pay her debts and, subsequently, money to pay her board in the country, On hor return to the city she persecuted him to marry her, ho says, and threatened to drown herself in case he refusod. ’ Again he, mn his cruelty, saved her from hereelt, and consented to marty her, At this time sho was totally destitute, not’ even possessing a robe. Again he gave her $100 to buy a dress necessary forthe wedding. She then ywod gratitude by informing her friends that sho married tho old mantor his money, and would make him ‘toe the mark;’’ and he says she nas con- tinued tn that spirtt—tho more be would do for her the more determined was she to rain him. Notwithstand- ‘ug a liberal allowance of halt iis income, he being, at the time, in the omployment of com- mission, merchanis in Broad street (with whom ho had been for over twenty years) a salary of $1,500 year—icss woek, paid tho ront, coal, wood, gas, servant, and supplied apples, potatoes, onions by the barrel, cheeso and all wholesalo provisions, kegs of buttor, &e, yet ry opportunity she would steal frum his pockets sums of money from p tv $20 him in debt among all people of tho neighborhood, Notwithstanding that he kept the house supplied with wines and brandy, he found on bis rewwrn from by 55 Goepp,—Nos. 7313, 7166, 7153, 569, 4531, ‘6751, 5513, ‘262, a business trip a bill of over $23 for beer used by hor, Sho speaks of drink, whose whole conduct in ber fits and frenzies and fits of pas- sion, be charitably attributed to her intemperate havits, Trusting her violent temper would cure itself he purchased a house in Latayetto avenue, costin; 1, Tariber states that alte at times threatened to take his life, and assured him he should die ber hands, He solemnly asserts that he nover inid bh: bands on her to assanlt ber. Sho left bis home, ho states, because be rebuked her for cruelty to ber sick child. He firmly erts that he can disprove the fabulous statements made by his wile, IMPORTANT TO PROFESSIONAL MEN, In the Goneral Term of the Kings County Supreme Court yesterday, the appeal in the action of Francis B.
