ARK.] 597 creating a temporary right, as to enjoin the owner of land from preventing a lumber company from laying a tramway across his land. Appeal from Howard Chancery Court; James D. Shaver, Chancellor ; temporary injunction denied. J. W. Bishop, for appellant. SaM & Sain and W. P. Feazel, for appellee. PER CURIAM. This is a motion for an injunction pending appeal. The chancery court refused to enjoin Corbell and wife from preventing the lumber company from laying a tram-way across their homestead, on the ground that the conveyance under which the lumber company claimed was void because the wife bad not joined therein, and dissolved a temporary injunction which had been granted. Injunctions and writs of supersedeas are issued by this court to preserve the status quo pending an appeal, where the justice of the case requires it, but not for the purpose of creating a temporary right. This case is the converse of Union Sawmill Co. v. Felsenthal Land & Townsite Company, ante p. 494. For the reasons there given, this application is denied.
