PERSONAL POINTS. THAT WILL EE OF INTEREST TO LAWYERS GENERALLY. in the opinion on last appeal, established a lien on the road ad sold in favor of Shirlev for the full amount of has claim, viz: Thf trial court charged the jury in effect that they should find for plaintiff, if the sale was "made with fraudulent in tent on the part of the Waco and Northwestern Railroad company, and if said intent to defraud Shirley "was known by the officers of the Houston and Texas Central Railroad company, or might have been so known by the exercise of ordinary diligence on their part." In order to invalidate the sale on the ground of fraud, it was necessary for plaintiffs To setabHsh two facts. (0 Fraud on the part of the vendor in making the sale. 2 Notice thereof on the part of the vendee.

tR. art. 24io Such notice might have ibeen established by proof, of actual knowledge of the fraud on the part of the vendee, or of actual knowledge on its part of circum-, stances sufficient to put a reasonably prudent person upon inquiry, in which event it would have been its duty to exercise reasonable diligence to ascertain whetner fraud fact existed, and a THE SENATORS GOT HOME YESTERDAY FROM THEIR NORTHERN SERIES.

Proceedings of the supreme court yesterday: I Affirmed ami remanded 'Houston and .1 Texas Central Railway company et al. rs.

Shirley, from McLennan. In Warner Elevator Manufacturing company vs. Maverick et from Bexar, motion for rehearing is granted, former judgment is set aside, and the cause is affirmed in part and re-versed end re manded in part, with instructions. Rehearing submitted Howell vs. Han-rick, from Travis.

Cause set Wiehila Valley Railway company vs. Peery, from Knox, for June 17. Cause submitted Wilson Co. vs. Daggett et from Archer.

Former submission of motions for rehearing in North Side Railway company vs. Worthington et from Tarrant is set aside and motions are reset for 13th inst. OFINIONS. Following are the opinions delivered by the supreme court yet-terday: The State ex Wm. Eckhardt vs.

J. W. Hoff et contested election case, from De Witt county, First district. In 1S71 the town of Yoakum was incorporated by an act of the legislature. This act provided that a.

mayor, board of aldermen and other municipal officers should be appointed for said town by the governor; that from and after the next general election said municipal officers should become elective and that the first election should be held under the direction of the presiding justice of De Witt county, after having given ten days notice thereof, and annually afterwards under the direction of the mayor, at least ten days before the expiration of his term of office. The governor appointed the officers in accord ance with the provisions ot tne act, ami in November, is.z an election was new at which officers were elected. On tne Nth day of December, 1S72, the council by ordinance established the first Mon day in tne year and in eacn suc ceeding year as the day for election of officers. Elections were regularly held un der this ordinance until l.SSO, since which time the elections have been held on the lay fixed in the general law for elections cities and towns organized under said general Jaw. Respondents were elected 1SS3 nad again in 1SU4, at elections new April of those years.

It is claimed hat these elections were void not held on the proper date. 1 We think that the effect of the provisions in the special act quoted above was to nx tne date 01 tne general eiecuoiis a the time each succeeding year for the lection of the municipal officers. The law force at the time tne act was passeo lixed the first Tuesday after the erst Mondav in November of 1Si2 as tne time for holding the general elections. Hence bat day in each year would, under tnis barter, tie tne proper date lor noiuuis he municipal election. f2i Rut we are of the further opinion that the judgment of the courts below in favor of resnondents should be affirmed even though it be admitted that they have iio legal title to the offices.

xne oaie ior iioiumg uv cicvimu hanged in good faith under a mistaken ontrr-tifn of the law. Respondents are de facto officers of the town, and if they should lie removed there would te no officers for the town, and no law under arhieh another election could be held un til th TtHmlnr fixed by the charter. Relator claims no right to hold either of offices, his action being purely in the interest of the public. Under this -state of tacts tne uistnc-fnrlL'c had the rieht to deny leave to file tha information on the ground that its -mccessful prosecution would be a public Injury, iltt N. J.

145; 4 High on Ex. Leg. p. 4iJ.) Lnder he facts tne case was eorrecuy uecmeo iK-low, although the reason given was not he correct one. The judgment is affirmed.

The law does not impose upon the vendee -the duty of exercising 9uy diligence, unless and until he has knowledge of some imLt-ul, ju i the jury, to put a reanably prudent per-' son upon 1nm'ry.

In the absence of sum bum utr uas nitr iiiii iij ac- sume good faith on the part of the vendor. The charge quoted is at variance with these principles. It required the juryi it "might have known" of the fraudulent' intent of the vendor "by the exercise of ordinary diligence," although they niay have 'believed that it had no knowledge of such fraud, nor of any circumstance' nuuinfui, in uini vymiou, tu jjul a amal.1(r TvlMilonT nri.Ti irwvniif I (2) Alrtioug'h Jthe instruments relied on by defendants, as showing its title. were assailed by plaintiff for fraud in their execution, it 'Was the duty of the court to construe tucm ami to instruct me jury as to their legal effect, subject to their finding on the issue of fraud. The error of the court in submitting these instruments to the jury without inform-l ing them as to their legal effect nees- sarily tended to conifer and lead tneir minds away from the real issue; and the special charge asked for in this connection by defendants should have been given.

(3) The sole issue in this case was as to fraud in the conveyance of the rail road property, it having been previously decided that the claims of ShirWy against the land conveyed was barred by limita- tion. The defendant was therefore en titled to an instruction that fraud in the land transfer, if any, could only be looked to as a circumstance throwing light upon! the intent with which the railroad prop- erty was conveyed; and that fraud alone in the conveyance of the land could not affect defendant's title to the railroad, property. (4) are of the opinion that the evidence of plaintiff tending to show that there was no necessity for the sale; and that the bonds of the Waco and North western Railroad company could have been old for a sum sufficient to pay off its indebtedness to the Houston and Texas Central Railroad campany, was properly admitted; and in this connection it was not error to allow Shirley to testify as to the probable market value of such bonds, had they been In order to show such probable market value. every circumstance reasonably tending to foreshadow the destiny of the aco and Northwestern Railroad company as' business venture was admissible in evi dent-.
