nendfld riffhtlv th .v.tikm it Pnnnavl vHnlt airm-
iatlon on ihn object, and IU bearing upon the
iUfstlons that are presented In the discussion of
this cnee.lt is to make local roads parts of one
'Teat Ui rough route. It is to provide not only that
these local roads may be made very valuable to"
Jhelr own districts, but tbat they may be also feed
rrs to or form part of a continuous route. It was
'9 accomplish this that they were allowed to con
feot. You have this magnificent section of conn
ry, considered agriculturally or In regard to it
nineral wealth, opened in this way, and by means
i'vf these connections forming apart of this great
brough route. . ,
Where Is the harm in all this? Yet it Is charged
Jgalost this company as a crime tbat It has picked
lip a few local charters and made connections.
,-Vhy Uiat is just what the Legislature has been
oiling the oommnnliy ever since 1847 tbat they
wanted it to do. We want not a few small roads,
icting without co-operation, but wrangling with
sen other and cutting each other's throats. We
want you to unite, and wherever you touch to
orm one continuous road, and In doing that do two
hings develop your local trafflo and Interests,
md also feed the great seaboard city of Phlladel.
hia on one side, and the great manufacturing city
f Pittsburg on the other, each on a navigable
lver, the terrainous of continuous routes. This is
i great policy, and It rather remarkable tbat we
dould be called upon here to answer a charge
Stiade direotly against us, and indirectly against
ibe Legislature of Y ennsylvnla, for devising this
ystem.
, We answer this charge that we bave need, and
intend to use, these local roads where they are
Adapted to the purpose of connecting, and by con
necting form tins through, route, l cannot imagine
mything more belittling as well as absurd, than
bat you are to fly in the tace of the settled policy
if the State begun in 1817, and steadily pursued
lown to the present hour, their Idea being to aboU
Kb private roads and form great arteries of con
nection throughout the whole commonwealth and
jwith other States. I cannot imagine anything
nore absurd than to charge this as a sin against
he Atlantic and Great Western Railway Corn.
iiany. And why do they do It! uecause tne com
plainants in the corporation bill tear that their in
terests may be bnrt. The great feature of the ar
i'ument is, and it amonnts to just this, that the rest
Ait Pennsylvania must be shut up, hermetically
aied, in order mat tne 1'ennsyivania iiaiiroau
ftuay reap better harvests. I am not afraid of raeet-
ng tbat argument in any place, nor am i airaiu oi
neeting it because the city of Philadelphia is a
arge stockholder in tbat company.
X do not fear tbat the city ol rniiaaeipiiia wu
utter because, by means of this central Pennsyl-
vania route, inurmedtauj between the Philadel
phia and Erie on the north, and the Pennsylvania
(tail road on the south, she is to have poured Into
lerlapall the treasures of the great west by a
hrough connection with it.
What is the Atlantic ana threat western iiiu-
ay't It Is peculiar in its geographical position.
It is not an east and west road, it is not a north
,ind south road; it unites the advantages of both,
lor It is northeastern and southwestern, and,
'herefore, you must see at a glance that It strikes
ill the roads of the west seventeen of thera, as I
im told, and greatroads all of them. And It Is be
cause the Philadelphia and Ueading Railroad
Uompany wants to bring to Philadelphia, in the
way 1 have shown you, bv this great route, all the
traificof tbat road and all the united business of
. those seventeen roads that feed it, carrying it out
I to the Mississippi river it is because they want to
do this that the Pennsylvania Railroad comes here
into Court and says you shall be preveuted from
entering into tbib contract.
This is the argument, and this is the tlatut of the
Pennsylvania Railroad. But who made the Penn
sylvania Railroad the keeper of the policy of the
iState of Pennsylvania! Who authorised that
Icompany to set its face against the policy ot bring,
ling to the city of Philadelphia all the trafUc from
the west, because it Is done by means or a contin
uous route, established, as I show you, so as to
bring Immediately and directly all this great
business to Philadelphia, although without the
consent of the Pennsylvania Railroad I Have
they so zealously contended for the interests of
Philadelphia as to be entitled to place them
selves to-day here upon a pedestal, and from that
eminence dictate what shall be the policy of other
(companies? Have they so carefully discriminated
in favor ot jriiuadptpnia against new xora ana
other seaboard points in their rates of freight, as
to be the arbiters or this policy ! xou win
be surprised, sir, to learn that where they have
discriminated, it has been in favor of the
tcity of New York. You will be as surprised, as I
was wben 1 learned, a few days ago, that in vio
lation, not only of their alleged policy, but in vio
lation of the very contract made with the Legisla.
tnre in 1801, when, by its grace and favor, they
procured the abolition of the tonnage duties, and
uromised that they never would discriminate
againBt Philadelphia, they had, by their scale of
charges, discriminated against this city. Your
f.Honor may well be surprised to learn that at this
(Dl J Uaj tin J vll. J v. "..go .uo riiiuu nil vu.i.
freight from points in the west to Philadelphia
that they do to New York, though the distance Is
ninety miles greater. In some cases they charge
actually less to the city of New York than they
do to the city of Philadelphia. How is It then,
jealons guardians of the interests of the city of
Philadelphia, that in order to show your zeal for
the city of Philadelphia, you charge as much and
even more lor the carriage oi goods to the city of
Philadelphia than you charge for goods from the
same point in the west to the city of New York.
They have wilfully disregarded the plainest dic
tates of what the policy of our State was, and the
plainest provisions ot direct law as asserted by the
act of 1861, and yet they pretend to say that the
Philadelphia and Reading Railroad bag endea.
vored to deceive the citizens of this community,
and bane attempted to dellect trade from Philadel
phia, wben we bave shown that it is the earnest
desire ot this company, in entering npon the con
tract of the loth of January, lbtifl, to make Phila
delphia the gaining point, by giving it the advan
tage of its greater proximity to the great west and
Its trade, an advantage which it must ever preserve
over the city of New York. Mr. Ouyler did ill,
when he apostrophized one of my colleagues, re
cently at the head of the government of tbls city,
who, be said, bad been untrue to Philadelphia, and
who, be said, made his appearance for the first
time in a court of justice, after a long professional
absence, In a case against 'the interests of the city
of Philadelphia.
I say, sir, that if that gentleman had earnestly
tried how he could best show his devotion to this
city, he could not bave done It in a more thorough
and complete way than by standing on this Hour
and advocating before this Court the great value
of the contract made between the Philadelphia and
Reading, the East Pennsylvania and the Atlantic
and Great Western Railway, by which all this
enormous trallla is brought to our doors. Unless
we set our faces resolutely against what is ottered
to us by tbese contracting parties, and Bay that we
will not receive it, his action needs no vindication.

Now, sir, I may say here, Philadelphia may pur
sue one of two policies. She may either liberally
take and freely avail herself of the great advanta
ges ottered to ber by this connection; or she may sit
perfectly still, wib her arms folded, waiting for
Providence to help her. I would like to know
which course will prove the most prohtdble. She
may take advantage of the great privileges award
ed to ber by this enterprise, or she may sit idle and
Indifferent, with this six feet gauge road as an es
tablished route to New York by way of Salamanca,
Tunning, as your Honor knows, from St. Louis to
Mew York, and lose all the traffic these connecting
roads have ottered to her in this way. So much
for tbe Pennsylvania Railroad Company and its
moral position in this place.-
Hut what legal right bave they to raise their
TOlce in this case except to pay tbat the provisions
of tbe contract, make in lt-tto, between the Phila
delphia and Erie (which is the Pennsylvania Rail
road now) and tne Catawissa, ought not to be ex
tended to the Atlantic and Qreat Western Rail
wav i They Ihave no more right to open their
mouths, except npon this question, than the roost
indifferent person in the community. On that
question they have a right, at some time, to be
heard, bat that question does not arise now. If it
be us they ray, that tbe alliance of tbe Catawissa
Railroad and tbe Atlantic and Qreat Western
Railway, thus enabling tbls magnificent con
tlnuous route to be formed, does not carry with it
the right to the otriract of lnno with the Sunbury
and Erie UBjapany, we taae u suojeci wj ou
leutmn. If we cannot use this contract let it be so,
out it does not Interfere with tbe connection of tbe
roads, and the Pennsylvania Railroad Company
hri therefore no right to interfere in the matter.
Tbey, tbemelves, have given ns their own opinion
as to this; for while they filed their bill on Decem
ber 7, le5, in tbe interval between tbat day and
Decunber 25 they came to think tbat tbey had no

the Stockholders' Bill, as It is called, and depend

some features in this stockholders' bill to which 1
THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH. PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY,
will refer briefly, andfthen apply the law to It, In
tbe first place it is presented and tiled by the same
counsel wbo filed Ue Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pnny's bill, Mr. Onyler and Mr. (lihuons. It Is
Hied against the Atlantic nnd Oreat Western Rail
rosd Company, of Ohio, New York and Pennsyl
vania, which company the plaintiff says he is
a stockholder, and that la a second point.
It says that the Atlantic and Oreat Western Rs.il
road Company, the Western Central and Cata
wissa Railroad Companies, with a view of form
ing a line of road to be a great through line, and
therefore in opposition to the Philadelphia aud
Erie, by which it will deflect the trade of tbe
western Suites from Philadelphia to New York,
bave entered Into this contract, an averment Iden
tical In terms with the corporation bill. It goes
on to say tbat by reason of this contract the charter
of tbe Atlantic and Oreat Western Railroad Com
pany has become Imperiled, and, Anally, tbat Ibe
Atlantic and Oreat Western Railroad Company,
being tbe proprietor of a six feet gauge road, can
not make a connection with the Philadelphia and
Erie or a road connecting with the Catawissa,
w here the roads are all ot a tour feet eight-and-a
hall-inch gauge. It is, as my friend Mr. Cuvler
said, ibe same bill; but, unfortunately for their
argument, Mr. Scott cannot occupy tbe same po
sition as the Pennsylvania Railroad or Philadel
phia and Erie Railroad In this controversy
I would like to ask my friends, wben tbey In the
outset of tbls case called the attention of the Atlan
tic and Oreat Western RallroadCompany to the faot
that ibey were going to argue that that company
had no right to act as a corporation, whether they
made tbat assertion as tbe counsel of tbe Pennsyl
vania Railroad Company or as tbe counsel of
Andrew Scott Such a position would be a little
anomalous, a little extraordinary In gentlemen re
presenting, as tbey say, a stockholder, not in the
old company; because tbe momeut it was suggest,
ed that it was the old company they brought forth
certificates to prove tbat be bad the right to be In
the new company. It is certainly extraordinary
that a stockholder in the consolidated company
should come into this Court and ask it to say that
this company bnsno existence. Now, is it as tbe
coui'ff 1 of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company,
or as the counsel of Mr. Scott, that they makrf the
argument) No doubt there will be a plausible ar
gument to show that the two positions are per
fectly consistent; but I hardly think that a party
really interested In the Atlantic and Oreat Western
Railway Company would get np here and gravely
contend that tbe company had no existence what
ever as a consolidated company.
Then they use an argument still more extraordi
nary. They say that the Atlantic aud Oreat
Western Company, in order to be a great through
lire in opposition to the Philadelphia and Erie,
will deflect trade from this city. Now, 1 would
like to know, 1 feel curious to know, how U is a
stockholder In tbe Atlantic and Oreat Western
Consolidated Company is to be injured by the run
ning of a great through rival line deflecting trade
from the Philadelphia and Erie and Pennsy lvtmla
Railroads or from this city I I always had sup
posed, looking to the language of the decisions of
the Courts both in England and this country, that
the claim of a stockholder, and the sole claim that
could give him a right to be heard In a Court, was
a rigbtto get as high dividends ss possible. I sup
posed that by the establishment of a continuous
line of road by which the trnfllo would be Im
proved on that road of which he Is a part, and by
which greater dividends could be pat in his
pocket, be would be benefited and not Injured. I
leave the counsel to explain how this would be
Injurious to the interests of Andrew Scott! They
will find it dlllicult to answer. I would like It to
lie shown by tbe counsel of Andrew Scott if, by
a connection between this four lee' eight uud a
bait inch gauge road and tills six feet gauge road,
all this traflic could be brought over his road,
and the result put into bis pocket in the shape of
dividends, how he would be injured! I shall,
therefore, and without much tear ot successful con
traiiicton, alflrm that Mr. Andrew Scott's bill is
utliam; that it Is simply auxiliary to the bill of
the Pennsylvania Railroad; that he cannot have
any independent status In this Court. 1 am per
fectly aware that it is the right of a stockholder,
w hen he comes into Court bona fide asserting that
a corporation in which heowns stock has onfoota
scheme that is ultra vires, and avers that he may
be injured thereby, to have the matter adjudicated.
Hut I contend that the moment the Court sees that
he is not upon this independent footing, and that
his bill is tiled by him in aid of a rival company,
bis mouth is closed, and the Court will not listen
to turn.
I will take the very latest decisions of the highest
conrtB of judicature, and 1 say, If your Honor
thinks, as I do not believe you can fail to
think, that this man has a greater interest or a dif
ferent interest in a rival company than he has in
the Atlantic and Oreat Western Railway Com
pany, in which be claims to be a stockholder, then
the law is settled against his bill. Prom the incon
sistent averments of this bill, as compared with
the averments of the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany, your Honor's decision will b mi ined. And
the moment yon urn convinced that this man,
owr.ing thirty or twelve shares In the Atlantic and
tl rent Western Railway Company I don't know
which, lor In his affidavit he says he has twelve
shares, and In his printed bill thirty share but
whether having a greater or lens number ot shares,
that he has a greater or different interest In a
rival company, the moment you are convinced of
this, 1 submit he cannot have a bearing here.
I In ten) to refer to a lew decisions lu support ot
this position, lint nrst i will notice, in a rapid
way, the decisions cited on the othef side. My col
leagues and I have looked Into thcin all, and we
agree that they do not sustaiu the positions set up
by the plaintiffs. The first was River nam navi
gation Company vs. the North Midland Rail way
Company 1 English Railway Cases, pae 114.
It bus nothing to do with the cae of a stockholder's
bill. It was a bill riled by the River Navigation
Company to prevent a trespass alleged to be caused
by the other party. The next citation Is waiford
on Railways. It is in court now, and It sustains
the general position, undoubteuly, but Is inappli
cable to tbe present case.
Tbe next case is Bagshaw vs. Eastern Railway
Company, 6 English Railway Ctises, page ll'J, to
the same ellecl. 1 be next case Is Ware vs. Orand
Junction Water Works, 2 Russ. and Myln., page
401, and it is rather in our favor, certainly not
againBt us, because the Injunction was not granted
at the suit of a shareholder, who tiled a bill to pre
vent tbe company from applying tor an act of
parliament to procure an increase of power. The
Chancellor there says: "I can see nothing in the
nature of a corporate body of this description to
prevent that body from so dealing with Itself, and
asking for such an extension or variation of its
constitution."
The two cases of Munt vs. Shrewsbury and
Chester Railway Company, 3 Law and Eq. Rep.,
p. 144, and Coleman vs. Eastern Counties Railway
Company, 4 Eng. Railway cases, p. 3H2, seem to
sustain the right of a stockholder to file such a
bill; but these cases are at variance with later cases
in tbts same Courts, and more thoroughly consid
ered, one of them, decided by the' late Lord Chan
cellor in a uourtoi the last resort. The sain re
mark may be applid to Beamun vs. Ruit'ord, 0 Law
and rJq. iep., p, no.
The case of the Columbus and Peqna Railroad
Company vs. Indiana and Iielletoute Railroad
Company, 5 McLean's Rep., p. 450, is altogether
different. These two companies entered into a
contract by which they agreed to haveacoutlnu
ous line formed by each company, by means of
roads of exactly tne same gauge, line ot tbe com
paries departed from the agreement, and tried to
change Its gauge. A bill was tiled against it to
prevent this being done, and It was ruled that tbe
true construction ot the contract prevented such a
cbange of gauge. You will flud that is the sole
point decided. I speak now from having read tbe
case last night. On the construction of charters
and acts of Assembly our learned opponents have
cited a number of cases. The Charles River
Bridge Company case, In 11 Peters, doesfnot come
witnm a mile o: tnis case.
There was an old bridge over the Charles river,
and another company obtained a charter to build a
bridge over the same river. The old company
thought there could be but one bridge over tbe
Charles river, and filed a bill in equity to prevent
tne new company constructing a secona. i nn case
was argued before the Supreme Court of tbe United
states, ana uniei j ustice Taney delivered the opi
nion of the Court, in which It was decided that
there was no prescriptive right by which the
Charles river was assigned for all time to the
Charles River Bridge Com nan v. nhat tbeconve
ulence of the public might demand that another
bridge should be ouut,) and tbat it could be built.
Judge Story dissented, but I am justified in say
ing mat tne, opinion oi me prolusion has always
been against Judge Story, aud with Chief Justice
Taney. ,
The next case, and thre are several from Penn
sy I van la, is upon the construction of powers of
corporations, i neea not say, as iney ao not touch
this question, mat undoubtedly a corporation can
not act unless it Is authorized to act. That is all
that can be said about these cases. Moll vi (as 1'enn.
lytvania Kailroad Company, 6 Casey, page 9, is Ira
portaut, and Is decisive of this application for a
preliminary injunction in the stockholders' bill.
It is there held tbat while Mr. Mott did well in
buying shares in the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany, making himself a shareholder to test the
question, yet that, as a dissenting stockholder, the
whole court was ox opinion that he was not en
titled to a preliminary injunction.
Mr. Scott, under the last section of that act of
consolidation of the 24 111 of lYlarvh, l-(i?, if tie was
not pleHsed with the consolidation of the dimpa
nies and the protect to form continuous routes
1 through other Stales as well as Pennsylvania,
tied his right of fpM within thirty days, to a
uonri oi common fleas in urawrord nr Erie coun
ties. By Ibis proceeding bis stock wonld have been
ppralsed by disinterested parties, and redeemed
by the company, and the remedy aQorded by the
act Is fnll and complete. His case Is precisely
analogous to Dir. Aloti's in this respeot. He could
bave got par for bis Bbaree the moment he asked
for it, but be did not choose to take it. He cannot,
therefore, succeed In his preliminary application.
i ne case oi jnonawa unoge uompany vs. Utlca
nd Schenectady Railroad, il Am. Railway Cases.
fi7l), has no relevancy to this case at all.
So much for the authorities presented by onr op
ponents. 1 wish now to refer to some cases we
bave collected on this vital point, which will es
tablish whether we are right or not in the view we
take of Mr. Scott's bill. Tbey are all Interesting,
and bear directly on the facts of this case.
The first case I shall cite Is that of Flocks vs.
Southwestern Railway Comnanv. 1st Smale and
Oiflard, 102, decided In IBM by V. O. Stuart, and
reported also in 19 Law and Equity Rep., p. 7.
i us juogmrm oi toe uourt in tnis case contains
very elaborate view of the dill'erence between
private corporations and corporations for pub
ic undertakings involving rubllo inierests and
public duties; and it Is there said that the principle
lhat the majority cannot bind the minority as to
acts not wlililn the common contraot has not been
applied to corporations for public undertakings,
Involving publio Interests, for which 13 Beavan,
4H, is cited. This was aleo Lord Cottenham's judg
ment when he was Chancellor.
But I wish lo refer vou lo tbat part of the casein
which it is held that where a bill is tiled by a stock
holder in the Interests of a rival comnanv, the
Court will r)ot interfere. You will find this laid
own on pages 107 aud 163 of the report.
The next case I cite is Roeers vs. Oxford. Wol
verhampton and Worcester Company, it He Oex fc
tones, on?, decided In lb58, by L.ords Justices
Knight lirnce and Tnrner, assisted bv Mr. Justice
Erie. On page 674 of the report, you will find the
mphatic wonts ot Lord Justice Knight Bruce
against the duty of a court of equity to assist a
tockboider who is playing into tbe hands of a
Ival company. Next Is'the case of Hare vs. Lon
don and Northwestern Rnilway Company, 2 .Tohn-
on ec lieitiin, p. mi, ilecidd by Sir W. Pace Wood
in June, IWI1. The main point decided is that two
companies may agree to divide their profits, con
firming Lord Cottouham's view on this subject. It
is an Interesting case, and I will read a little
from It.
Alter considering that Interesting point with
which your Honor is famtlar, and which had been
previously decided by Lord Cottenbam, as to the
dlilereuce between tne rights of a private and a
public corporation, going over all the decisions,
pud showing bow common law judges agreed with
Lord Cottenham, and how the weight of decisions
was in his favor, on pages 111, 112, ho considers
the position of a shareholder, and shows tbat bis
inteiest is to gain the largest possible amdunt of
profit. He then expresses his inclination (on page
Hit) 'o act upon tbe views expressed by Lord Jus-
tics Knight Bruce, in the case above cited, in re
gard to a etockhloder filing a bill In the interest of
a rival company, and proceeds to decide tbe cause.
still later, in tne case or orrest vs. Manchester
Railway Company, 3(1 Beavnn, 40, the decree of
he master of tne Rolls was amrmed by the Lord
Chancellor, in July. 1WS1, on the grounds that the
aintill, a stockholder, did not bona fide represent
he slinrt holders of the railway company, but was
he pnppet of the rival packet company. See note
on paire 48 of the report.
How sirougiy does this apply to Mr. Scott's bill.
He contends, poor, Injured man, thut he Is dam
nge d by tho increase of the traffic of the road of
wnicn ne is u stockholder, and seeks to restrain
the completion of a contract which will produce
such a result.
Now, here yon have, as late ns July, the
decision of the late learned Lord Chancellor on
this ground alone, that courts will not counte
nance any such attempt as this made here to-day,
where a man who does not, bona fide, file his hill us
a stockholder, or who could go out of a company
without being hurt at all, comes into Court with a
statement, which on its face shows that it is n
thum, complaining of what Sir Wm. Page Wood
says is not ordinarily the complaint of sharehold
ers, the probable increase ol trartlc ou the road in
which he says he is interested. He is manifestly
but a puppet in the hands of others who are com
petitors of th road.
l do not think tne court win be able to reconcile
the statements put forth by tho gentlemen on the
other side, who say to us, "You are a company
under the stockholders' bill, nnd not a company
under the company's bill. I do not think yon will
he able to reconcile the statements of the two bills,
in which, on the one band, n stockholder complains
cf what Is manifestly beneficial to him, in aid of a
complaint set up on tbe other hand, In the bill
tiled by the compunies, of injury caused to them
by the self same acts. I do not think the wit of
man can reconcile such inconsistencies, and it
only proves bow bald and destitute of merit must
tbls case tie wben it cannot even be presented lu a
court of justice with a decent covering npon it,
and when its nakedness and grotesque deformities
peep out through the lll-n'ting garments with
which it is attempted to conceal them. I have now,
sir, just as I am about closing my remarks, bad
handed to me a printed circular of a prominent
business firm of this city, which I will hereafter
present in the shape of an allidavit.
Mr. Biddle here read the business circular ot
Miller & Co.
What a commentary upon the position of the
companies w ho set themselves up as parties com
plainant in this case, wben we find our own citi
zens leaving Philadelphia to transfer tboir busi
ness to New York, alleging us one of the reasons for
the charge that freights are cheaper to 'he west from
New York viu the Pennsylvania Railroad than
they are from the city of Philadelphia. And yet
tins is the company which comes into Court to ask
to real rain the compaction of the contraot between
the catawissa Railroad Company and tne Atlantic
and Great Western Railway Company, under the
pretence tnat by means tnereot trade will be de
llecttd from the city of Philadelphia.
1 bnve now presented to the Court tne united
views ol my colleagues and myself upon the vari
ous points raised upon the bills and allidaviu, and
I trust made It apparent tliat no preliminary in
junction, as asked lor, can be granted to the com.
piuinants in eitner bill: ana that tnere is not tne
least ground to ask the interference of a Court of
Equity in the manner in which it is sought to be
obtained in the cases now bPfore the Court.
Thanking your Honor for the attention with
which vou have listened to me in a somewhat pro
tracted discussion of the case, I leave it, so far as
the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad Company
and tbe East Pennsylvania Railroad Company are
concerned, in your hands.
