Judgment has been delivered in tho Judicial Committee of tho Privy Council —tho Supreme Tribunal of Empire—in an important appeal in connection with the winding-up of a Canadian railway.

This sum had been transferred to tho Standard Trust Company, tho respondents in the appeal ease, by a syndicato to whom tho South Shore Railway Company owed that amount. The appeal, which was upheld by the Judieial Committee, was from a derision of (he Supremo Court of Canada upholding the claim.
