LEASE ATTACKED, Minority Holder of Company Says Stock Transfer Was a “Squeeze,” and He Will Push Suit Begun. ‘The sult brought by Henry D. Laugh- Nn,-a minority stockholder, attacking the validity of the lease between the Chicago & Alton Rallroad and the Chi- cago & Alton Raflway in April, 1900, is taken by Wall street to mean a vigor- ous attack along the linés of the North- ern Securities contest. When Edward H. Harriman, J. Gould, Mortimer F. Schiff, James Stillman and thelr associates acquiref a majority of shares in the ©. & A. road they promptly formed a holding company, called the Chicago & Alton Railway Company, and turned the rail- road over to It for ninety-nine yeats. They placed its capital stock at $0,- 000,000 and gave it a bond isee of $%,- 000,000. Then they transferred to it as the holding company $21,000,000 stock in the C, & O, and that part of the rail- road of the St, Louls, Peorla and North- ern Company lying between Springdeld and Peoria, In payment, Stockholder Laughin avers, they took $22,000,000 of the momt- gage bonds of the Chicago & Alton Rallway Company and $39,000,000 of its common and preferred stock. As in all these deals, they were on both sides, Laughlin asserts that the Harriman-Gould-Schiff-Stillman combi- ation did something ike this: They made the railroads and other properties of the Chicago & Alton Ratl- road Company stand for 322,000,000 in oor porate bonds, and $40,000,000 In corporate capital stock~all through the guise of & “holding” company. “This process," says Mr. Laughlin, “We vulgarly known as a squeese.” He an- nounces that the sult will be vigorously pressed.
