that he is better prepared for the

ing of the stockholders OF the Philadelphia
& Reading railroad to vote upon the ques-
tion Of dividend, was held this afternoon at
the compauy's generaloifics Ex.presdent
Gowen stated that IL had been expected
that something would be said or done
now with regard to the collateral trust
loan but the sole object of the meeting was
to vote upon the desirability Of declar-
ing dividend after certain obligations had
been disposed Of. He said that "tho loan
had not been offered to anybody, and that
1t was not wise to attempt to place II in
the present disturbed condition Of the
stock market, but he had no doubt Of the
ability of tho company TO get the money.
The papers for the loan have not even been
drawn, and the matter will not be acted
upon by the directors for two or three
weeks. II was the object at present TO
know whether or not stockholders desire
to have dividend after the loan shall be
negotiated"
The following resolution, which was
offered at the annual meeting, was then
voted upon
i" ResolUed That it is the opinion of tho
shareholders that upon a successful issue
oi tho collateral trust loan, referred to in
tho report of the managers, aud tho reai
cation of tho proceeds thereof by mauG-
gers for tho purpose of retiring the out
standing income mortgage bonds and
paying the floating debt of the company
and paying tho balance of the purchase

81 per cent. representing arrears due, be
made in cash upon preferred stock and of

The county commissioners to-day
brought suit against Squire John L.
Frank and Constable Frederick Struck OF
Columbia before Alderman Fordnoy,
charging them with conspiracy to defraud
tho county Of money during tho month Of
December 1t Is alleged that these men
ut different times drew money that they
were not entitled to, but they are said to
have been especially crooked in the case
Of tho men who were sent to Jail, where
they were afterwards robbed. These men
were committed as drunk and disorderly
persons when they had been guilty of no
wrong. They were not tramps, for they
all had money and George Fisher one of
the party is said to be the owner Of 40
acres of land in the state Of Missouri. II
is claimed that Struck has been drawing
too much money for car fares of prisoners
between this city and Columbia, by clever
arrangement Of his bills.
Geo. Fisher, Carl Peterson and Joseph
Hauck, the three men who were placed in
Jail innocently, have brought suit against
the justice aud constable before the above
alderman, charging them with conspiracy
to arrest and imprison thom. The COM
misaiOners are determined to push this
matter and thorough investigation will
be the result.
