Sale of tlie Denver and Kin Grande Western will Ik protested by Harold I Palmer of New York City, one of the original i liter venors, wlm sought to prevent the purchase of the road by the Missouri Pacific and the Western Paeific. Palmers attorneys last Tuesday at Denver, Colo., began tin; steps in United States district court necessary to prosecution of an apicul. His objections to tlie sale, consuniated last Oetolier. were overruled by Federal Judge Syraes, and it is from this decision be is preMiri!ig to apical.
