IMPORTANT DECISION.
Certain Railroad Bond* Most bn Delivered
to the Construction Company.
important Charleston, S. C., June 36.—A very
cided railroad case has just been de¬
here. Some years ago the legisla¬
ture passed an act authorizing certain
townships in the bonds upper section of the
state to issue to aid in the con¬
struction of what is now known as the
Charleston, road. The Cincinnati and Chicago townships rail¬
act constituted the
a bonds body corporate, with power to issue
to the amount of tne subscription
to the railroad. The railroad was built,
and a demand made for bonds, but was
refused. An attempt was made to pass
an act validating the bonds, but failed.
The bonds are deposited with the Boston
Trust company, and this suit was brought
to Construction compel their delivery to the Southern
company, of New York,
which h building the road. The court
decides that the bonds must be delivered.
This case involves a dozen or more simi¬
lar cases in the various upper counties,
bonds amounting, perhaps, to a (quarter
of a million dollars" being cor the
construction of various railroads.
