Center! charges that William J. Dingee, pre: dent of the corporati with the as. sistance of the other directors, has mi: appropriated $295,000 of the company's funds. By her attorneys, Baggett, Jones & Sheridan, she yesterday filed an action for the recovery of that sum {in damages for all of the owners of shares. { The basis of the suit is found in a| resolution’ of the directors of the com- | pany on Abpril 1903, - declaring that questions had arisen as to the validity of the title of the Contra Costa Com- | pany to its realty and many suits were | | threatened, therefore $300,000 should be | | put aside and placed in Dingee's hands | | and expended, all or in part, for thej purchase of adverse titles and the com- | promise of prospective litigation. On the same date another resolution was | adopted approving the report of Presi- | dent Dingee that he had already ex: pended $295,000 for the purposes men- | tioned. | The plaintiff alleges, on her informa- | tion and belief, that no question what- | ever had arisen as to the validity of the | titles of the Contra Costa Water Com pany to any of its realty or other hold ings and that no suits were ever threat- ened, and she believes that no part of | the $295,000 was ever paid out for the| purposes enumerated. | She declares that she demanded of| the secretary of the corporation that he exhibit vouchers for the expendi-| tures, but he told her that he had none —that the only authority for the pay- ment of the money was contained in| the resolution of the directors. For thirty days prior_to the beginning of | |this action, she s: , she has demand- ed of the board of directors that they | institute the suit, but the board re- fused. The défendants named in the action besides the company are the directors— “William J. Dingee, Charles C. Bemis, | Thomas H. Pheby. H. G. Stevenson, A. | H. Winn and A. W. Rose.
