Shareholders of New York Associa-

New York, Feb 2.-The Times says:
A motion viii be made in the supreme
court Of Brooklyn today for the transfer
Of s.. .00O. 900 in real estate owned by the
Anglo-American Loan and Savings as
sociation, now in receivers hands. to the
newly formed Empire State Realty COM
pany.
The many shareholders will vigorously
antagonize the motion. They viii as
sert that the officers of the Empire COM
pany are identical with those Of the
Anglo-American and that it would be
folly to return the real estate to the
hands Of the men under whose man
agement the Anglo-American came to
grief. One of the main points Of the
opposing shareholders is that the pro-
posed transfer would relieve the Anglo
American directors of liability. They
claim that personal liability Of the di-
rectors should make up q great part OF
the company'S s losses.

The Ore Rate Case.

Word has been received to the effect
that the opinion of Attorney General
Douglas upon the issues involved in
the ore rate case, which will decide
whether the action is to be litigated
or dropped, was filed yesterday with
the railroad and warehouse commits
sioners, but that, pending it's review
before the full board, its contents are
not announced.
The impression is general, although
authoritative statements are lacking,
that the attorney general takes the
view that the states position is suf-
ficiently secure to warrant contest.
With the attorney generals opinion
are opinions from Senator Moses E.
Clapp. special counsel, and II. w.
Childs, former attorney general. re-
tanned by the commission. The case
comes up for hearing Tuesday,
The states contention is that ore
traffic is not interstate, and that rates
charged from the mines to the docks
are subject to state supervision. The
opinions filed discuss these issues.
