The Contest Between a Kentucky
Town and New York Bankers." ;
Elizabethtown, Ky., at a vote
taken in 1SGS, decided to issue j
bonds to. the amount of 75,000
in aid of the construction of the
ErizabclMov.n ' and ? Paducah
Ilailroad. This -vote --was-' ob
tained by. -the . representations
of those most prominent in Ihc
enterprise,1 that the principal
machine shops ... of ...the -road
should be located there. The
bonds were issued to the road
and all sold by, the corporation,
andlitock in the road to the a-
mount ot 75,000 was issued to
the town. On these. bonds the
interest at seven, per, cent. ', per
annum was paid, tip ; to 1S74,
when the CeciUan branch of the
Paducah road : t was completed
and the traiiis - ran through to
Louisville." Of " necessity, the
machine shoj3, such as they
were, were built in that city,
none having' ever been: ejected
at-Eiizabc t li town Then t was
that the people' of Elizabcili
town refused tQ 'longer pay thd
interest on the bonds,: claiming
that' the management of the road.
had violated their contract in c
recti ng the principal; shops in
anotlier place. urexet, iMorgan
& Co., -and - Ilallgurten 11 ' Co.,
which firms " had-' become 1 lie
possessors ( of'-' about. ' ' 70,500
worth' - of the - bonds,1 :then
brought suit against the trustee
of the, town on the unpaid cpu
pons, and after a liardly fotiirht
legal battlo, Judge1 U;dhird 'de
cided the case in,t!ieirfavor,nud
rendered-' judgment-' agtdilsi '
the trustees, for about $17,500.
!AVhcn this judginent was ren
de red the t f u si ees rci-igncd, ah d
the town ' was -witiipm- a city
government' a'nd,v.Uv3gh' .sue-'
censors have been elected . each
year,'lhey liavQ repeatedly 'refused-
to otialifyv After their
resignation the bondholders be
gan a series of efforts to compel
levy of tax to pay their judg
ment, and, to t ins end, procured
a mandamus tci.be issued by the
Federal -Court -com pelting the
tnisiCes'lo levy the tax.' ' 1 lie
trustees were-summoned before
the court and responded. Judge
iJalJuid lielil that' their, resigna
tion -was not good," and. thai
they were trustee!? ; until their
sucecHsors 'were elected and
qualified... They were put ' un
der bonds of 1,000. each ami a-
gni n-ordered' to make the levy.
Upon their ' return' homo they
met, appointed tin assessor, and
decided 6ii a levy of sik and
one-half j)er cent., or six dollars
and a half to the hundred doI
leu's- worth of property, to pay
the rjridgment.'- .Vhcn the levy
was completed they ' appoint
ed several collectors, but each
one in turn refused to qualify or
give bond. : They even went so
far as to advertise for a" collec
tor, but no ouq rcsppnded to the
call.1 "When the rnlc; against
them was returnable 'they ' aj)
pcarcd. heforc Judge . Pallard,
reported their iiction 'and he
very promptly 'discharged them.
The bondholders then .advertis
ed for a co 1 ! e el o i-, ofl er i u g t e n
t' per cent.,' bat no one' would
u ndert ake : the gob.1 '.In d e.pai r
of ever getting any thing, hy this
plan, the bondholders hit upon
another scheme They based
their plea on the ground that
the-execulion against tliC trus
tees having been returned," Vo
property found, and ' that'.they
had made a levy of a certain
sum, those levied; on were' in
debled to tire ' trustees , in '.the
sum levied, and they were sued
by wayl of ;. garhishrn'ciiti'i'and
prayed that 1 the ' garnishees '.be
compelled to pay into court the
amount of their indebtedness to
the trustees in discharge of 'the
bondholders' debt. About fifty
or sixty of the largest tax-pay
ers were made defendants .and
irai nishecs. and allwno were
levied upon . ' were., included,
though not specially named
..This plan scared the- people.
The question, whether they, are
liable, under this new proceed
iusr is . still pending;, On -the
call of the case, demurrers ;were
s " ' j .
hied, 10 uic -aciion, on. ine
ground that the face of the bond
stutesjhat the town ; of Eliza
etht own will pay such and
such a sum, when the trustees
were sued for the debt.; Other
matter, is set up in the demur
rers to virtually the same effect.
Judge Ballard has not yet ren
dered, a- decision, but, it is
thought, and even , intimated,
from what he has been heard to
say in regard to other, similar
matters, that his decision will
lh rendered shortly tothcclfect
that the action bt the bondhold
ers is well taken in making the
iudividual . tax-payers -' garni
shees. . ' . . . ' .'
The debt now amounts to a-
bout 120,00(), including princi-
pal, unpaid interest, the judg
ment rendered and the costs.
Various meetings have been
held at different times to con
sider the question of compro
mise, but no settled and dclnulc
plan could be agreed on and al
ter a feeble agitation, - the mat
ter was dropped. The trouble
always was that. there were too
many to lead in lho diffeicnt
plans, and too ? few to follow.
Some favored the issue of-ncw-bonds,
others the -immediate
and unconditional payment of
the' debt at a sum not to exceed
?15,000. : It Yim been an uiider-
stood thing that the bondhold
ers would accept'45,000 in fall
payment, but, there ..was .never
enough genuine backbone man
ifested inr aising the" sitm, Iicnce
nothin'r was done. The meet
ing was for 'thc'""ptirfo"so"''6f 'a-'
gain consulting alwnit the 'mat
ter. The people, have become
tired of repeated litigation, and
especially as every -point of de
fence Iras been invariably deci
ded against them and in favor
of the bondholders. , - - '
The lion'.. James "VV. . Hays
urged the people to make the
bondholders a proposition ol
15,000 in payment of the debt
in full. Mr. AVilliam Wilson
spoke" to ihesanie eirect. Judge
