Supreme Court—Special ‘Term, Before Judge Rosevelt, STOCK OPERATIONS- THE SCHUYLER FRAUDS. Mar 7.— Wm. S. Miller vs, RB. & G. L. Schuyler and the Illinois Central Railroad Company —There are, asid the Judge, two entirely opposite theories in this case, As the Sshuylers represent it, the transaction was a loan of money, and nothing else, secured dy Iinois Railroad scrip as collateral—the losn, with i\s interest, and more, being subsequently repaid to the lender, and the scrip, except as otherwise arranged, returned to the borrower.

On the 3d of An 1852, when the aote became due, the interest was paid and # new uote given for the same amount, at the same rate, for the same period, and with the same collateral. the 6th of October the lcan was again renewed precisely in the came manner, except in the substitution “a six months; Ra the expiratio or rather, some peo a ‘produced, dated 2hd Decora ABS, whole ‘ode and interest, p Berens 6 $7,106 * was finally paid. It now appears, however, that on the asme day with the loan as ori ly made, the Schuylers mot only deposited with Miller the scrap before mentioned as collateral, but indorsed on it also an absolute assign- ment to him of the right to take to his own use 160 of the shares when issued; and that on the 2d of April sree pelo when the renewed note fell due, another gnment wa ‘was endorsed of the right to 160 addi- nk shares; making together 300, or two-fifths of the whola.

Miller, with this construction of is rights, complains that ‘although the stock of the company, without bis knowledge, was increased by the directors, of whom one of the Schuylers was pent to. ssventeen millions, and sltheugh a large number of sbares of the new issue were even expressly allotted to the holder of the Ludlow scrip before mentioned, yet 4 ainelaees who had received from him the scrip for uurpore of f taking ‘out the more formal stock cartidenes which Cel gen respectively was enti- tled, while giving Miller 300 shares, took all the rest to themeelves—making a difference in faver of the Schuy, Jers, and to the jadice of pte on this one transac- tion, of nearly $20,000; that being the iam at 35 cent, the tl n value, on "a propor: Renal number of the new shares.
