OFFICERS NOT LOSERS, IT is SAID
So Shareholder of New-York Building Loan
and Banking Company Charges.

A circular letter has been addressed by John T.
FITZGERALD of No 367 Fulton-st. Brooklyn, share
holder Of the New-York Building Loan and Bank
ing Company TO his fellow shareholders. urging
them TO meet with him TO form protective league
and consider their attitude toward the Othcers-
He said the officers had duped the shareholders and
should be punished and that many OF them were
supposed TO have private fortunes Although the
company was insolvent, he declared. and was in
the hands Of a receiver. thu officers lost nothing
through the common misfortune OF the sharehold-
ers while it was possible that many of the latter
might find themselves without homes after all the
years of privatlOn they had endured TO pay dues
10 the company. The important proposition he
urged was TO consider what action the sharehold-
ers should take make the officers suffer for the
manner in which they had handled the funds.
The letter continues:
If our officers have unlawfully made money while
handling funds, and the referee says they
have. why should not into the courts and
II they be permitted to retain their fort
unes? As things stand now, we must simply wait
for year before the receiver is through with
work, and then get what is left OF our savings
Meantime, anybody who may have been guilty
would have ample time to cover his tracks
The time to act is right now, and the only way
act is by getting together, and not by wait
ing until find ourselves turned out OF the homes
have paid dearly for.

dav TO consider the action Of the Stonecutters'

Prince, chairman Of the press committee sad
We found this afternoon that the stonecutters
had decided to put their hack on of the
buildings where they had called off their men, In
the question OF the other and only remaining
bulIdlng where the men have struck, the matter
Is still IN allegiance. But the men have been given
only a week to decide If they will come back. That
VIII be until the next meeting of the board of gov
errors. The question this second building is
trade matter, and the bosses are in conference
with the men, The board of governors cannot act
until the bosses have made report to them of
their conference with the stonecutters. The matter
will likely be settled before the next meeting of
the governors. Everything else is in lovely shape
Another union has signed the arbitration plan.
It is the Steam Filters and the Steam Filters
Helpers. 1t IS said that the only Important union
that has not signed the plan is the House
