Suit About Railroad stock.

A very interesting and important suit has
been brought by some OF the holders OF
guaranteed stock Of the Richmond, Frcde-
ricksburg aud Potomac Railroad Company
against the company, claiming that they ere
entitled 10 demand "dividcnd obligations
from the company, Of the character allowed
10 holders OF common stock under the resO-
luton Of the Board 81 Directors OF the sth
day Of December, 1881, together with the
cash dividend declared In this resolution on
said obligations. and in such proportions
rs will make equal the rate of diyi-
dend on the guaranteed stock with the
dividend declared in said resolution on
the common stock Of the company.
This claim Is based upon resolutions Of
the stockholders passed in 1856 and 1866,
which provide substantially that any rate
Of dividend at any time paid t0 holders OF
common stock greater than is required 10
he paid on the guaranteed stock by the
resolutions under which the guaranteed
stock was issued shall at all times be
equally paid on said guaranteed stock. II
j. contended that these dividend Obliea-
tions. which were issued 30 holders Of COM
mon stock 20 the amount of 20 per cent. Of
their shares. constitute a dividend. and
being much greater than the dividend paid
on guaranteed stock Qhe highest rate not
exceeding ! per cent. per annum). the
guaranteed stockholders claim that they
must be made equal with the holders Of
common stock. This would require, ac-
cording TO their view, IN additional issue
Of over $500. 900 OF dividend obligations.
This suit is ready for argument, and will
be heard at the June term OF the ChanceTy
Court. before which time holders Of the
preferred stock can make themselves par
ties to this suit. Messrs. John 4. Coke and
James y. Dunlop represent the preferred
stockholders. and W. W. Henry appears
for the company.
The foregoing facts appear from the re-
cord in the ChanceTy Court Of Richmond.
