reasons given in his opinion by the learned judge at special term were sufficient as a ground for denying the motion. A similar motion for an injunction and receiver was made in August, 1878, by plaintiff and entertained, and a reference ordered to take proof of disputed questions of fact. The reference and the motion were abandoned by plaintiffs after several meetings had been had and defendant subjected to a long, adverse examination. The cause was then referred, on December 9, 1878, to the late Mr. Bloomfield, and upon his death the Uon. E. L. Fancher was appointed referee by consent, and the trial of the issues proceeded before him from February to June, 1879, and was adjourned to October. A determination of all the questions of law and fact can be speedily had if plaintiffs desire it, and under such circumstances the court should not favor a second application for an injunction pendente lite and a receivership), based up)on grounds of the same nature as those originally presented and abandoned as the foundation of the earlier motion. The newly discovered facts alleged as a ground for renewing this motion are either immaterial or insufficiently proved. Of the former kind is the transfer of defendant Silsby’s own shares of stock, being his individual property; and of the latter, the allegation of an agreement to pay away all the proceeds of the company’s mine being mere hearsay. The allegation that the referee has ordered an accounting is a mere expression of opinion by Mr. Gardiner as to the legal effect of rulings, and required no denial as a fact.
