The Houston & Texas Centr Railroad


We have received printed circular, signed ga
stakeholder" and addressed to the stockholders Of
the above road, from which learn that suit has
been brought in the District court of Harris county
to enjon aud annu hecontract recently entered into
with II. p. Adams, of New York, for the construc-
ton of 50 1-2 miles Of the road, commencing at a
po mt 81 1-2 miles from Houston, where Bremond's
contract ends. This suit is broughtiby ]. W. Hen
deraon, Us stakeholder, in behalf of himself and
such others as may see proper to join plaintiffs,
aIainst Groesbeck Baldwin, Allen and others, ma
jority Of the Directors and H. p Adams the contrac-
tor. The petition charges substantially, that the
contract was made with Adams privately at e1hor-
bitaut price, without giving public notice and inv-
ting 2roposals-without making estimates Of the
costs, that 900 per mile would have been rea-
sonable price for the work. Whereas Adams is to get
taken the contract at from Sl5-to-lS000 per mile,
had public notice been given urged by two Of the
Directors, ". A. Van Alstyne and F. A. Rice, and
that the contractor will realize clear profit on his
contract Of 495000 It also charges, that it is be-
eycd that Grocsbeck and Baker, two Of the Directors
the president and secretary, ore interested with
Adams, and that it is the intention and object Of
0rsesbcck and Baker to acquire all the stock and
the road themselves, in conjunction with others Of
the directors, who can be controlled py them. The
above are only part of the material allegations Of the
petition. It is charged that Baker made the arrange
ment with Adams whilst at the North some time ago.
and that the latter boosted while in New Orleans on
his way to Houston, that he had contract for &c
miles Of the Central road We have not space to
tce the further charges in the petition, and have nc
comment to make until further developments. GA
