The railroads' attorneys and several ?,fi ficiuls were in court during the for nialities Incident to the "surrender." I hat the railroads are sore is frank ly admitted. They declare that tlioy have been baill.v used, and that in ef feet they were clubbed into beeoini.ix a party to the agreement effected at Kaleigh. The petition presented to Judge Pritcard covers about ill typewritten pages wherein the inci dents of the past several days are reel ted, including the correspondence between (Jovernor CJlenu and Solici tor Brown. One railroad attorney declared tat never before in the United State* bad such a disorderly proceeding taken place, under the forms of law as the compelling of the railroads 10 relinquish their legal rights under threat of more serious things hap pening 1o them. i he railroads declare, is effect that the\ were cluhhcd into becoming par ly to the agreement effected nT lial eigh; that the public mind has been inflamed by the newspapers and the utterances of politicians and that the agreement wrs only assented to un der duress^ because of threats of an extra session of the Legislature for he purpose of adopting legislation hostile to the railroads. The request to make changes indi cated in the petition was granted lw Judge Pritehard, who in makin<r the revised order said: "lhe applications now made (.) modify the injunctions heretofoie glinted in these causes present a eon (btioTh-nf affairs unprecedented in the judiciay'annals of this countrv. ? ! a m"' complete hear ing of I the ma Items raised by the pleading in thesd pauses, injunctions, ponding Nj houri/ig of the <pies|ions involved in original suits, were granted.

"The defendants could have ap pealed from my order grant in" a temporary injunction, hut thev Tail ed to do SO. Instead of appealing in these cases, they filed an answer, and the causes were then and there re ferred fo a master in order that tho evidence might be taken. "It is unjust to say that the ques tion of States' rights is involved in this controversy. It is equally un just to insist that uhat the court has done m the premises was an interfer ence on the iMu-t of the Federal Court with tho State courts However, mi the other hand there has been a mani fest disposition on the part of tie! State officials to interfere with the fedcrlil Court in its procedure to do equal justice between the complain ants and tho defendants ami in tho exerciso of those powers necessarily incident tg the protection of its jurii diction. "If tli is kind of obstruction'should prevail and the citizens are thus to he denied the rights guaranteed them by the. constitution of the United States, then those provisions of iho constitution would become a dead let ter as there would be no means enforcing them." After referring to the interlocu-r tory injunction, the argument and opinion in the habeas corpus proceed* inn the judge Mid! "I feel no doubtto the sound bom of these views as to th# jurisdic tion of this court or its right and duty to enter the interlocutory' de cree or, in order to protect the jum dietioh of this court, to discharge 01 habeas corpus the *|*rsona who had been arrested by tbe authorities f<*r with the order* w iiiw court.
