I'

This morning there was an unusual
buzz and burr among the fra.’ 'ty of
the law in the primitive once. of the
Court House. The occasion was the
examination of Mr. David Young before
Mr. Leggo, master in Equity. In re
Young rt the Manitoba. and South-
wester Railway. The examination was
held in judge's chambers. At a. low
minutes after ten fi.|1I. Mr. Young was
sworn.

rnsrxnoxr.

To Mr. I-Zillam :—l was one of the
- original directors of the Southwestern
Railway : Mr. Scln tr. and Mr. Mc—
Gregor were also among the first direc-
tors and have been so ever since : I re-
mained a. director up to last April : I
originally took 100 shares at $100 each :
my next subscription was in the neigh-
borhood of 9:20.000. or 200 shares : the
second purchase was occasioned by

the necessity of issuing bonds:
under the direction of the

board, I issued stock certificates for the
whole $250,000 ; the stock I held at the
time was increased by 50 per cent. ; 1
made arrangements with one Madison.
who was to negotiate the bonds : I had
to show Madison that there was enough
paid up to legally allow us to negotiate
the bonds: the president of the road
and myseli as secretary took an oath
to that effect : I sent a certificate that
ten per cent h_.d been paid up mnl the
law complied with ; the bonds Were to
bear s-ix 1 - '3 cent. interest : ho otlorod
to buy bonds which have a Certain
amount of interest. My next negotia-
sions were with Sir Richard Cartwright,
but nothing was accomplished by it;
there was an informal document. a sort
of interim bond. which was to be used
by Sir Richard in floating the scheme
in the interim: was drawn up by Dr.
Schultz ; it might have been drawn up
by Mr. McIar, of Kingston ', there might
have been two documents; I don't know
the document produced ; I took no fur-
ther steps to negotiate the bonds ; we
were unsuccessful in our efforts in New
York: there was 8:25.000 paid up on
the stock and we told the New Yorkers
this; I had heard that other negotia-
tions had taken place at the \Veliand ;
I heard it on the street : on demanding
an explanation Mr. Kemp. then secre-
tary, offered me a cheque which I re-
fused : hcngztin tendered me the cheque
later on and I told him that I could not
accept it until I knew what it was for
and had a. copy of the whole
particulars of the case ; the amount of
the cheque was $4,900 ; I had then 381
shares; .lh'. Kemp wanted me to trans-
fer the whole of my stock to one Mr.
Pew; )lr. Pew was there to rc-trztnsfer
mc four-fifths. retaining one-fifth as a
commission : I was present. when JIr.
Kemp was elected a director, but I did
not know at the time that he \"U-n not
qualified; I base my objection to him on
the general ground that he had not
signed an acceptance of shares ; I know
that Dr. Schultz was purchasing sup-
phes from the Northwest Trading Co.
through heresay, and I swear to it to
the best of my knowledge and belief ;
my knowledge of Mr. Bowen‘s purchas-
ing supplies was obtained in precisely
the same manner; I have no personal
knowledge of supplies being ordered, de-
livered or paid for; Mr. Ashdown and
Mr. Sutherland are the men who told
me that Robt. L. lIcGregor was hiter
ested in the Southwestern Ry; I learned
first from Bobt. L. McGregor himself
that he was not qualified to act as the
director of the railwa r ; I knew this
some time before I resigned my pesition
as director; I was told that Mr. McGrcg-
or was interested and accepted profits
on goods sold to the company by Leish-
man Ii: Co; 1 have sworn that I believe
the directors are diverting the course of
the line of the railway so that it. will
run nearztheir personal property. thus
enhancing its value. I withdraw
this as far as the New York directors,
but I stick to it in so far as Dr.

Shultz, Mr. Pew and Mr. McGrc-
gor are concerned. General llam-
mond , the secretary of the com-

pany told. me that the line had been
lengthened 51x or seven miles more
than was necessary. I don‘t know
whether this land was purchased before
or alter the location of the road. Gen.
Hammond told me that the‘fiortion of
the road north of the Assinaboine
should not have gone so far west: he
also said that the line had been twisted
about uunLL-cssarily in the region of
Nelsonville.

Mr. Leggo reminded Mr. Killam that
the court would in all probability pay
no attention to the evidence being
taken.

Mr. Killam persisted and Mr. Young
continued: A number of us pooled to
buy land on the Assinaboine where the
railway was expected to cross. Among
the number of gentlemen were myself,
Dr. Schultz, 311'. )IcGregor, Mr. Pew.
and others. Ihave since learned that
Dr. Schultz, Pew and McGregor were
interested in land where the road is
now fixed to cross the Assinnbine. They
purchased the property from John Tay-
lor; Mr. Pew informed me personally
that he purchased the property in his
name; I distinctly swear this. I never
heard that this was held in trust for the
Southwestern Co.

I mocnxnnsr.
At- :his stage an adjournment was

I (passion was stopped by Mr. Imago “- he
said he would take no more evidence a.-

Mr. Iiillstu insisted.

I - n
a take any more evidence-
; Mr. lullam said that Mr. Young in

his atlidavit charges Dr. Schultz wi:h

its use and applying it to his own
pocket. and he wanted to cross examine
Mr. Young on this statement.

Mr. Leggo refused to take it down.

Dr. Schnlt: arose to say that he
wished to disprove Mr. Young's state-
ments over his own signature.

.\Ir. Leg-:0 said that be thoroughly

understood the natural anxiety of Dr.
Schultz. but he could not help it. Dr.

Schultz had a chance of clearing his
skirts by counter affidavits.

Mr. Kilhun made a spirited attempt
to hold his ouud but was repeatedly
overruled.

Mr. Leggo advised him to appeal he-
foro a judge in chambers.

hit. Blanchard arose to say that the
injunction “‘ILS not against the Soutlr
western Ily.. but against certain of the
directors. '

Mr. Biggs corrected him undheld the:

been enjoined.

Mr. chgo ruled with Mr Riggs.
