against Alexander Anderson ct ais, al
leging that the respondents had been
guilty of fraud in securing to them
selves a controlling interest in the con-
Germ and attempting to Dust the mi
nority faction, and asking the courts
for the appointment of receiver, and
the formal winding up of the affairs of
the company, SO that the accounting
between the parties in question might
be made
one or the most important features
of the report is the finding for the pc
titioners that the stock in the co-opera-
tive concern, which they claimed had
been bought in by the respondents for
the company at $23 was worth $6241
This was one of the principal claims of
the petitioners. BY buying in stock the
respondents secured possession of l7G
