Southern New England Ry.—An application was made to a court at Boston, Mass., recently for the appointment of a receiver for the company. The applicant, J. Marsch, of Chicago, Ill., stated that he had expended $1,500,000 on carrying out his construction contract, on account of which he had received $500,000. A considerable portion of the balance had accumulated through the stoppage of the work. The question of the court's jurisdiction was raised, among other points, and the hearing of the application was adjourned.
