for the purpose Of ascertaining the neces-
sity or advisability OF allowing the issue
OF stocks and bonds, would show the un-
questionable ilegaity OF such proposed
issue
The Board OF Gas and Electric Light
Commissioners. learning OF the illegal IS
sue OF this stock and the bold infringe
ment OF constituted authority, notified
the Massachusetts, Pipe Line Company
that il had not only issued It's stock IL
legally, but that IFS officers and directors
had committed a miSdemeanor punish
able by fine and imprisonment. Then
and not until then did the Massachusetts
Pipe Line Company ask the Board OF
Gas and Electric Light Commissioners
to ratiiy their illegal action, and the hear
ing on February 18th is the result.
If it is possible for the Massachusetts,
Pipe Line Company to do what 1t has
done, and it and its officials are allowed
to go unpunished. unquestionably the
precedent they have established will be
quickly followed by scores OF wildcat
schemes, until the name Massachusetts
attached to a gas and electric light Sc
curlty will mean no more than the name
OF those states where nothing is required
for the issuance OF stocks and bonds but
the payment Of small fee to the local
attorneys, and the millions of securities
already created under the conservative
supervision OF the Board OF Gas and
Electric Light Commissioners will
quickly change from first-class invest
ments to speculative footballs.
1t is clearly the duty OF the three
classes above mentioned to aid the Board
OF Gas and Electric Light Commissioners
with all the information in their power, to
the end that they will make this, the first
attempt at high-handed infringement of
the corporation laws OF the Common
wealth OF Massachusetts, so expensive an
infringement of the laws that it will never
be attempted again, for probably never
again will such an opportunity arise for
teaching schemers that it is disastrous to
attempt to evadc the well-establshed
policy OF Massachusetts, represented by
Commission which has justly earned
reputation for conservatism, intelligence
and courage; for if the Board Of Gas and
Electric Light Commissioners stamp the
stock Of the Massachusetts Pipe Line
Company as illegal, the corporation itself
does not legally exist, and the 50-year
contracts which it has made with the
seven Boston companies fall to the
ground, and thereby destroy the entire
structure OF the New England Gas &
Coke Company, which, in its turn, will
release the unfortunate underwriters who
have purchased $14,O00,00O Of worthless
bonds, and the tremendous loss now inn
pending will have to be borne by the for
eign spectators who are responsible for
the creation of this chimerical creature Of
modern finance, instead of New England
investors, as was intended when the
scheme was first created.
