Caer ee S$ Stock Operations and the Simultaneous Loans, | -_ One Firm Borrows Four Hun- dred Thousand Dollars, Irwin and the Subsidy Bill at Washington. in th Vice-Preaident Bellows o: 2 Wit- nees Stand. In March, 1872, application was made on behalf | of L. C. Challis, @ stockholder im the Pacific Mai) Steamship Company, vefore Judge Gilbert, io the Supreme Court of King’s county, for ap in- junction to restrain A. B. Stockwell, the Presi- dent, and the other directors of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company from using or applying the | funds of that corporation in any other manner | than autnorized by the law and their cnarter. It Was charged in the complaint that the defendants had been in the habit of loaning their reserve and other funds upon their own stock, discounting | bilis and conducting otner banking business jor their own ends and to the detriment of the Welfare of the stockholders aud their rigut in the property of the company. An order to show cause was granted and testimony ordered to be taken beiore Mr. J. S. Lawrence, the referee ap- pointed for the purpose, The following is the testimony taken before that gentieman on March 16, 18, 19 and 20, 1872:— MR. STOCKWELL ON THE STAND. Mr. A. B. Stockwell testified as follows:—I am President of the Pacific Mati Steamship Company; was elected to office on November 15, 1871; about | the time of my election I made an examination of | tne financial affuirs of the company and found them to be in adont the same condition as men- tioned in the statement furoished by the old Board on their retiring from ollice; in this statement mention 1s made of $242,100 time loans, which are sul running; tais tem means a mortgage upon | certain real estate, but I have never examined she mortgage; William M. ‘tweed pays the 1uterest on it, but it grew out of some other transac. tion; the assets are represented by bonds and mortgages upon realestate, but I do nut know upon what real estate; loans have been made of the company’s money since that date; I cannot tei! the exact amount, ncitner can I approximate it; they are made generally every da: iS near as | 1 can teil they are about $1,500,000; they vary every day, sometimes more and sometimes Jess; this amount is exciusive of perma | nent loans; the securities on which the loans are made are stocks in good standing, but this bnsiness is generally dope by the Vice President | of the company under my direction, but it is left | very much to him; the time for which such loans are made is mostly on call, and they run generally Irom sixty vo ninety days; we always take a mar- giu of from ten to twenty per cent; the borrower gives no ovligation in writing, but a memorandum 1s made on the outside ot the envelope containing | oe collaterals; the surplus at the time I went into office was about $3,000,000; { never made @ loan personally; | have directed Mr. Bellows, the Vice President, to joan suck a house so much money; the surpius has increased since I became President from $390,000 to $500,000—that Ia, taking into consideration the money paid on suips now building and for coal on haud; the surplas now 1@ Irom $3,000,000 to $3,500,000; I cannot tell how much has been paid on ships nor how much on coal, but I think about $400,000 on ships; [ cannot Spproximate on coal. ACCUMULATION OF SURPLUS. The surplus bas accumulated from the legitimate business of the company, the earnings of the steamers; it, however, in part is derived irom interest on these loans; I should have said that it comes trom the earnings of the steamsnips, tne | interest on the loans and the coupons on tbe bonds; I never knew of the company getting more than seven per cent interest on ihe money loaned: In the report made by the old Board, just previous to my election, it is stated that there was on haod among the assets $895,000 United States five- twenty bonds, whieh cost $981,067 35; I cannot tell whether the same bonds are stili on hand, for | We have sold some bonds since then; there are other bonds among the assets; I do not know | which were sold; if the flve-twenty bonds were | sold 1t Was uudoubtediy under my direction, but I Go not remember how often or for what amount; igave instructions for bonds to be sold, but I think it would amo int to about one half of what Was op band on my election.” air. Stockwell, on being pressed, admitted that at the time he went tuto office taere were $895,000 of the five-twenties, $775,000 of ten-lorties and $100,009 of the five per cent uew. he Was assed 10 nis judgment whether he had not ordered to be sold, aud li aore than one-nall oad pot been solu. He replied that be thougnt so, buc could uot teil how much more. Mr. Stock weil, coutinuing, said:—I cannot tell what the least surplus in cash is that the compaay has bad ou hand since | became president irrespective of the pro- ceeds of the sales, put I think it has not been less than $696,410 25. The earnings of the company have nor at all times been equal to the emergen- cles lor the payment of money in the transaction 01 the ousiness of the company, but { cannot state to what exten the assets of the company were Called upun over and above the current earnings. WHY BONDS WERE SOLD, The bonds were sold vecause 1 thought it a good time to sell, and because the contracts authorized so meet these claims conds or otuer property since these were sold, but have coutracted for @ steamship. I auve bought no stocks on account of the company I became president, bur have the means of olpagcy Leen increased directly or indirectiy oy the purchase and sale of stocks. The tunds of ue compauy have never been loaned to any per+ son Or persons with che understanding that the stock of the company should be purchased with it, Tam positive of this, although 1 did pot make the loans personally. The increase in the assets, which [ uentioned sx being from $300,000 to $500,000, grew out of tae revenue of the slips aud | potuing eise. TRE WAY MONEY WAS LENT AND WiI¥.
