Summary

Stanley Matthews Milwaukee Railway Company v. Brooks Locomotive Works…

If the fund in the hands of the garnishees Stewart and Abbot, belongs to the Milwaukee & Northern Railway Company, the plaintiff is entitled to subject it to the payment of his judgment; otherwise not. Hoyt's claim is that Stewart and Abbot, as trustees of the Wisconsin Central Railroad Company, were in possession of the Milwaukee & Northern Railway under a lease of that road to the Wisconsin Central Railroad Company, and are indebted to him, as trustee under that lease and as assignee of the lease, for the rent accruing under it, represented by the fund in their hands.
