Mr. duller Onr rlew t that the word ludlelal
t doea sot apply to the word transfer at all. bat aim
ply to tbe word sale. I suppose thnt there ia no
I UDctuation In tbe record, tbat there ia no comma
at all. Bat we believe that tbe road can be Judi
cially sold. A transfer ia ancther thing. i
Mr. Glbbora I think IVIr. Cuyler ia mistaken. I
think there ia In one of the copies a punctuation,
end ibe genllt-men have punctuated It as A was In
their copy. 1 suppose that the only way to read
ibis is to read It like an act of Assembly, without
ary pnnctuatlon at all.
Air. Porter It Is said on tbe other aide tbat there
la a rnnma between tbe word sale and transfer,
and tbey propose to dissert It and read It a judicial
sale, but not a judicial transfer. Tbey wish to say,
1st, an assignment for tbe benefit of creditors; ad, a
judicial sale; 3d, or a transfer of any kind. To do
this tbey must put in another word, an article.
Their object is to dissect it, to dissever It, to disin
tegrate It. We read it a Judicial aale or transfer:
that la, tbe word judicial connected with the word
asle and connected with the word transfer. Can
there be any doubt about HI Does not a party
wben he comes Into court and asks yon to put In
another word which la not in the paper, done he
nol show yon the weakness of bis mode of Interpre
tation We rend It a it is, a judicial sale of trans
fer. Are ) on to say that it means an assignment
lor the benefit of creditors, or a judicial sale, or a
transfer of some kind I This is to make another
contract. This Is to butcher tbe thing. This is to
tear it to pieces, to tear the very bowels ont of it.
Where is this mode of construc'ion to end f Is It
necessary for us to do as some of tbe old transla
tors have done, to interpolate a word, a fact which
fnqnently causes commentators and readers so
much trouble l We read It as It was written when
tbe contract was made, the word transfer not torn
eft from tbe other words And taken by itself, bat
connected with the previous members of the sen
tence as the parties wrote It.
What was the use of tbe word judicial at all, if
It means a sale or transfer I W hat is the meaning
of the word judicial in tbat connection I Why not
have left it out altogetbert
But It Is no sale at all. It is no transfer. It is a
lease. Yon are not to say, if I lease my house,
that I tell It, that 1 have lost the control over my
property altogether. I have merely given my
right away for a certain time. Surely you must
apply that doctrine here, and say that where a
company has made a lease of its property it ia no
aale of It.
Under thla contract wbat were tbey to do? The
Sunbnry k Erie agreed to furnish sufficient motive
power to haul over their own road between Mil
ton and Wllliamsport, all the passenger, express
and baggage cars of the Catawisea Kaiiroad Com
pany, or that might be presented by them. Does
that pass as an incident of this lease! Look at the
authorities which have been so skilfully presented
by my colleague, Mr. Drayton, on this suoiect and
cay whether thia does not pass.
One company having made a beneficial contract
with another company in regard to traffic, may,
with a lease of Itself transfer the benefit of the
contract, (London k S. W. K. W. Co. vs. S. E. K.
W. Co , 20 Eng. L. k Eq. 417, Kedfleld p. 418.)
A contract by two railway companies that each
shall run upon tbe track of a portion of the
other'a line, la of a permanent character, and
cannot be determined without the assent of both
parties, although in terms It did not specify " suc
cessor." And If the line of one company be leased its lessee
may nse tbe line. (Great North. K. W. Co. vs.
Manch. Shef. k London. R W. Co., 10 Eng. L. k
Eq. It, p. 11)
The West London Railway Company entered
into an agreement with the Great Western Kail
way Company, under which the latter company
bound themselves to stop certain of their trains at
a point where their railway Intersected the West
London Railway, for the purpose of transferring
passengers, Ac, from one railway to the other, and
to atop their trains tor tbe purpose of meeting cor
responding trains, kc. Subsequently tbe West
London Railway Company was authorized to
make a lease to the London and Birm. Railway
Company. It was held inter alia that the lessees
could, it they pleased, claim the benefit of tbe con
tract between the West London Rail way Company
and tbe Great Western Railway. (West London
R. W. Co. va. L. k N. W. R. Co , lb Eng. L. k Eq.
R. 4fl )
Do yonr Honors want any better or stronger
authorities than these! Says Mr. Parsons: "So
much did tbe ancient law abbor litigation, that the
transfer of a chose in action was wholly prohibited
But we apprehend that the stronger and better
reason was, that no debtor shall have a new cre
ditor substituted for the original one without bis
consent. Courts ol Equity have long disregarded
this rule." (Parsons on Contracts, vol. 1, p. 'Hi
and 224, and cases there cited.)
I have one or two other topics on which I wish
to tonch sliirhtlv. As to this matter of the idma
which baa been dragged into this case, I do not
wish to enter into thut or to discuss it. Hut you
have in this case what you had not intheomer
case conclusively established by proof, as we
think It that this certificate did remain in the
office of tbe Secretary of the Commonwealth forty
daya. It this is to be done In one cose where Is to
be tbe limit! It I hand my friend Col. Snowden
here a declaration, and it is received and kept forty
days, aud tben banded back to me, where is to be
tbe limit! . If I go before the Master in Equity In
thia Court, Mr. Mallerv, and I tile something with
him and be keeps it lor weeks, and then sends It
bark to me, where ia to be the limit!
The paper ia sent to the Secretary and be returns
it in a letter saying, where is your authority ( Judge
Church replies by tbe next mail, saying, here is
your authority and here la the page. Six or seven
weeks elapse before any answer Is received. What
was the duty of the Secretary 1 A law had recently
been passed requiring the filing of tbe paper, and
wben tbe Seeretary asked tor authority be was re
ferred to the authority, ana forty days passed be
tore anything was heard from bim to indicate that
the paper was not mea. . 11 mis is to oe aone, not
one of us can say where It will end.
It is said on the other side that these bonds were
dated when tbe paper was not in tbe otlice of the
Secretary. Governor Walker ia here with the
knowledge in bis breast that these bonds were not
Issued until the 15th. These bonds were issued to
an extent of whlcu yon caunoi conceive. Look at
it aa practical men. These things conld not be
written They had to be lithographed and some
date bad to be nxea. i ne Dona mat were lasuea
weighed over three thousand pounds. After the
Ink waa pat upon them and dried. It added a
weight of 700 pounds. We are not dealing with
petty matters here. We are dealing with large
matters. Some date had to be put In, but although
thev were dated, nothing practical waa done with
them until nearly two weeks after the date of the
bond, but Interest was made io run irom tue day
on which thev were dated.
How, when ten or eleven days pass witnont
bearing from the Secretary, what must we con. ,
elude! Why, that he waa satisfied. After all these
transactions bad been aone, and all this immense
amonnt of money bad been expended on thia thing, (
roost the Secretary not be prevented from saying
that thia was not placed on file I Are you going to
commit all this power io one mar. I A vast num.
Der of men showed their faith in this enterprise by
Investing in Its bonds; and then, after week bad,
passed, tbe Secretary returned the paper and re
QGrd. tC flllW IX to remain in his office. Certainly,
vour Honor! Will tot aay that this act destroyed
the immense interests which bad thus been staked
on tbe good faith of tbe State.
I observed in the opposing argument one great
mistake which ran through the whole of It. This
office of the Secretary of State is an office of record
for certain purposes, not for ail purposes. It cer
tainly cannot be a place of record for a copy of a
paper. In this case the original waa not to be sent
tbere. A copy waa to be sent there, and a oopy of
' the papers sent to be verified could not be sent
there and be called a reoord. i
May It please your Honors, bad the act stated
. tbat the Harrlsbnrg Bank Is a corporation created
" by tbe State of Pennsylvania, In which copies of
agreement of consolidation may be deposited,
, could tbere be a plea of nui tiel record In that cojis'I
Suppose the act had said let it be deposited with
the Treasurer, and be kept with the records of
bis office, could there be a plea of nut tiel record
' there I .
' Chief Justice Woodward Does not thia agree,
rnent become a law of the corporation by virtue of
' the accompanying legislation! ' Is not this agree
ment Inwritten in tbe legislation of the company
by tbe act of incorporation, and therefore does
not the Roll Office become a perfect place of re
cordf - . ".. , . I .
Mr. Porter No, air, you can never rive an act
drawn by private parties the effect of an act of
Assembly, ii nui iv iue agreement neea
.- - fcot be tiled at all. Can a mere copy of a private
i rreemeot be equivalent In authority and clothed
. ail the rower of an act of Assembtvl i t
Chief Justice Woodward Dow not this paper
h ome Dart of the act of Assembly 1
Jklr, Porter No, never. I do suppose that the
moment you say that a copy executed bymysel'
and my f rlei.d, Mr. Blddle, l to bave tbe etwt ot'
anytlin.fi within gnns bot range of an act of Assem
bly you do that which ha never been doue- before
by any court' An act of Assembly is the most
solemn thing you can eoncelveof. Now I can con.
ceive that tbat office can be a place of record for
one purpose and not for another parpoee. It is
not a place or record for coat and hats, altnougn
they may be lawfully hung up tbere. It is a place
of record for acts of Aseembly. When a mm la
allowed to transact a piece of business, of cor
poration business, the Legislature may say, "After
yon are through with these things you are to leave
i copy oi mem in tue Harrlsbnrg Hank, or in
be tM CTctaiy'e office, or In any other place where
pre pie may look at therd." W hy, this is as widely
different ftom an act ot Assembly a (lay if differ
ent frcm night. You cannot give to cornorn.lona
more power In this, rpect than you can to lodivl-
t'uniB, j i nm io triune an agreement wim my
friend, Mr. Walker, and am to deposit that or a co
py of it somewhere, the officers of the law are to do
nothing at all, but a copy of the lnstrumnt is sim
ply r quired to be filed. To give that paper the dig
nity oi an act ol Assembly, or anything approacn
ing It, would be fraught with consequences the
most disastrous. There may be some advantages
n considering this to be an act of Aseembly, but I
must put it on tbe ground which I believe to be the
true ground, tbat no act of an individual can be
clothed with tbe authority of an act of Assembly.
l nere are many paper" required j on ueposiu-u
which are not records. Take tbe case of tbe bonds
given by the Cusiom-house officers of the city of
Philadelphia: they go to the office of the Solicitor
of the Treasury, who Is one of tbe Assistants of the
Attorney General. They may be made evidence,
nnd copies ol them may be made evidence. Hut I
should be very sorry to think, as a ci'lzen of Penn
sylvania, tbat any oiher citizen of Pennsylvania,
or of any other State, should be able to make an act
of Assembly for me. 1 would rather have our acts
passed by tue persons we seua to inrrisDurg, no
matter what their characters may be, than to nave
wo persona a thousand miles off make an act for
me.
I want to say a few words ebout these Ohio and
Pennsylvania laws, and then I shall have conclu
ded wbnt I have to say In this case I shall say
nothing about this 1st section of the act of Penn-
ylvatiin. 1 here is not the lenst difneul y In un
derstanding It or in showing you how it operates:
not at all. It simply says, that wben any tall road
company In this State which connects with a rail
road in another State, by doing certain things thse
companies may be made one. Hut tben there Is a
proviso "that nothing in this act contained sbull
be taken to authorize the consolidation of any com
pany or corporation In thia common wealth with
that of any other State whose laws shall not also
authorize a like consolidation.' "Like consolida
tion!" What does tbat mean? It does not mean
like legislation.
Suppose the State of Pennsylvania had ald to
the State of New York it could not to the State of
Ohio, because Its law was passed nine years be.
lore but to tbe State of New York, "We require
yon to pass a law in just the words of tbe act
which we have passed." Would thai be tolerated
between one State and another! Would not New
Yora say, "We will pass it in the way we want it
done." Suppose I say to your Honors, "I want
you to write an opinion in this case which will be
just lour pages of paper in lengin." w nat wouia
your Honors think of mel Suppose I go to a gen-
tiemrn ana say, ir, nere is a letter commencing
Dear Sir, nnd ending Yours, Respectfully: sign
his letter." that would be an indignity, ana it
would have been the most Indecorous thing, it
seems to me, on the face of the earth to sty that
New Y'ork sbonld be required to pass a law just
in the words of our law.
Tbe Pennsylvania law does not require similar
legislation on the part of New York. Car law
gays, "whose laws shall not also authorize a like
consolidation." Then in the commencement of the
next section follows that word "said" said con
solidation and it is contained in the three acts of
Ohio, New Yo'k and Pennsylvania. It is the fact
tbat tne consolidation la to take place in tne par
ticular way pointed out in the succeeding sections
of this act that is kept prominent. I can readily
understand this policy. The Legislature simply
intended to say to these corporations we have au
thorized tnis consolidation, nut now take care. uo
nothing that will clash with the laws of other
States. Do nothing tbat will interfere with tbe
laws of other States, for that would not be conr.
teous in vb We have given you thit authority,
but we mean that you eball do nothing under it
until yon get the like authority from the State of
New x ork. now is it to b aone I
What Is consolidation I What does that mean l
It means the union of certain municipalities of
certain corporate bodies into one, so as to make it
a solid compact whole. We consolidated munici
palities, lourteen of them, in the city of Philadel
phia. In this consolidation the mode is to be the
came in the three States. In authorizing this con
solidation the design of Pennsylvania was not to
interfere with the laws of the State of New York
In New York the stock of the company might be
attached for debts Tbey might have laws regard
ing the mode in which dividends must be paid
not more than once a year and they might have
dineient rates oi toll.
Here tbe certificates of stock are all personal
property and go to the executor. New York might
make a ditterent law about that Tbe laws on
taxation mipht be different in New York and Penn
s lvanin. We did not want to interfere with that.
Taxes might be payable tbeie at tbe office of tbe
company. They migbt be payable here by tbe man
wro gets the dividend. The law of New York
migbt require that every car running on that road
should have a conductor, that each car should
bave two braketmen but the general power to
consolidate, to unite these three corporate bodies
Into one, must be given in a similar manner.
Otherwise the thing could not be done at all. It
would not be consolidation, and therefore Penn
sylvania waa careful to say that the fact of the con
solidation must be authorized by the act of New
York, before there shall be any authority under
tbe act of Pennsylvania.
One thing is so plain to my mind that I do not
see bow there can be any reasonable don bt about
it. Can you require that New York shall autho
rize this consolidation by a general and not a spe
cial law! Can you say to New York, "You must
do it by a general law!" New York would say,
"No, we will not do it in that way. - You choose
to do it by a general law, we will do It in eaoh par
ticular case. We have given you authority now.
When you want authority in any other case, say
so, and you shall bave it." That would, without
any unnecessary clashing or interference between
tbe two States, perfect tbe consolidation.
As to tbe powers given to this new company, all
that Is required to understand them is a plain and
simple reading of these several sections. The
complainants' counsel read one clause, that upon
filing a copy of the act of consolidation the corpo
ration shall possess within this commonwealth
tbe rights and privileges and be subject to the re
strictions and disabilities of each ot the consoli
dated companies. Tbere they stopped, but when
you go to the fifth section yon read that tbe rights
of each corporation and the property, real, per.
sonal and mixed, and all debts due, on whatever
account, and all property, rights of way, etc, shall
be enjoyed by It.
Tbe Ohio and Pennsylvania laws re the same
In this respect. There can be no doubt that th
consolidation under tbe laws of Ohio and Penn.
sylvania was perfect. Here is Pennsylvania sur
rounded by six States; suppose five of them pass
consolidation laws oud one does not, and consoll
! datlon takes place under tbe laws of five States;
because one State does not assent is the consolida
tion In all the others to be blown upl Suppose the
consolidation has taken place under the authority
of the lawa of Pennsylvania and Ohio, and
tbat the law of New York is not strong
enough. The Ohio law is right, PennsyivJ
nla and Ohio come together and agree perfectly.
Tbere are several hundred miles of tue
road running through these States, aud there 1b but
a small portion of it running Into New York, and
Pennsylvania and Ohio come together in entire le
gality; laltalltobe lost because tbe New York
law is detecti ve7 If a man goes into an office ot a
railway company with a certificate In his hand of
ISO shares oi hock, ana asas lor nis aiviaena, ana
they any, "Sir, yon are wrong. It is a mi:ake
of the clerk. You are entitled to only one hun
dred sbarea of stock." Nobody would say
that he would not be entitled to any dividend
whatever. If I bring an action of ejectment lor
ten bouses and prove my title to six of them, mint
I lose all because my deed calls for ten ! The case
of an indictment Is a stronger case, ten counts bid
and one count good. A case of a declaration,
ten counts bad and one count goo a. ii me otam
grant me a patent for five tract of land and I
am found entitled to one, my right to that one is
good. If a man ha an invention for a plane and a
saw, and the latter Is bad because somebody has
invented it before him, the patentee' right to the
plane Is good. 1
If I, by will, devise my house to A for life, then
to B tor lite, then to O for life, and then to some
one else to be called Into existence 60 year after
ward, tbe latter Is void by the law against perpe
tuities, but will that afreet like previous life estates.
Take tbat wonderful case which oocurred many
year ago. I wa not called professionally to take
any part In It, but I listened with a great deal of
Interest to tbe argument of that case In which the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company bought our pub
lie works. She was authorized to buy tbe works
for a certain sum. In that very act of Assembly
It was provided that she wa to pay a certain ad
ditional sum and be exempted from taxation. Thia

Debtbcctive Finn We aveb & Fitler's
Rope Manufactory Dkstroyed Loss about One
Hundred and Thirtt Thousand Dollars.
About half-past 9 o'clock on Saturday evening a
most destructive tre broke out at the extensive
rope manufactory ot Fitler, Weaver & Co., situ
ated on the ra6t side ot Germuntown road,
between Mnth and Tenth streets, in the Nine
teenth Ward. All the spacious main buildings
connected with the establishment were entirely
desito.ved, together with a vaat amount oi mate
rial, making a total loss of about $130,000, on
which there is an insurance of about $80,000.
The principal build ng was a three story brick
edifice, situated on (iermantowu road. This
builaitg was 120 feet in length by 40 feet in
oepth. It ws here that the main operations o!
the hrm, consibt-ng ot spinning an1 preparing
hemp, took place," and ti clinically termed the
"ienuv hous." East of this was a long one
story brick building, used lor preparing Ame
rican hemp. Extending Irom the main building
was a large two sti'iy briek structure called the
machine shop. The one-story brick built inar
was the engine and bolter-bouse. Extending
aciossa field the distance ot 1:100 feet, all the
way lo the Kensington Water Basin, were two
parallel one-story frame rope-walks. 1
The firemen of the vicinity were in a distant
part of the city on a parade. Chief Lylc, who
was with tbcm, detached the portion belonging
to the district, and despatched ihem to tbe
spot. Circumstances seemed to conspire to pre
vent the saving .f the property.
Tbe f it men who were hrbt upon theg-ound
stated that there were but two lcet of water in
the Kensington basin, and they were unable
to accomplish any edeciive service, not being
able to obtain a sufficient supply to force througD
along line of ho-e. The watchman who hr.-it
ci-covered the lire states that r. originated in
the second story of the spinuing-roDai, aud w is
ol litile consequence at first, but a want of water
preverted its extinguishment.
With the single exception of the engine house,
which had only the roof destroyed, a'l of tne
above buildings were entirely consume! by the
flames, but it is believed that the boiler aud
engine are In tolerably good condition.
The extensive ropewalks and their valuable
contents were saved by cutting away their con
nection with the main building.
A range ol frame stables in the rear of the
establishment were aved, together with a num
ber oi horses located in them.
A trame two-and-a-half story dwelling, situated
near the factory at the south end, and occupied
by Andrew Wingate, one of the principal work
men ot the destroyed establishment, was en
tirely consumed by the tire, but the bulk of the
furi.iiure, etc.. was saved.
The fire originated in the "jenny house" in
the main building, second story, at the soutb
end, where manilla hemp was spun, and was
ent'Tely accidental.
The destroyed establishment was one of the
largest of its kind in the United States, at.d
employed 250 hands.
The insurance is principally la the following
companies: Franklin, State of Pennsylvania,
North American. Delaware Mutual. Pennsyl
