Trouble for the State Line and
Sullivan Railroad Company.

Indications now point to an amiable
settlement of the State Line d Sulli-
van railroad difficulties, outcome of
which was an equity suit brought in
common pleas court at Philadelphia
some weeks ago by james CT. Leiper
a stakeholder, to restrain the presi.
dent and directors of the company
from selling its coal lands to Bos-
ton syndicate. So far Mr.. Leiper APP
pears to havn won Il decided victory.
He was not only successful in stop.
ping the sale of the coal property,
but the directors of the company APP
pear disposed to court his OPT nion
rs to the future operations of the
property. The annual meeting will
take place at Dushore, Pa, on We'd
nesday, May Is, and there are sew
eral interesting matters which will
come up for discussion.
AS the company leases both its
railroads and coal lands the former
to the Lehigh Valley for annual rem
tai of $40, 900 and the later to the
Connell Coal Co., for Il minimum an
nual rental of 50, 800 and has sur
plus of. over Sl00,0 900 cash in its trea-
sury number of the stock holders a.
mong whom Mr.. Leiper is said to be
included argue that this surplus or Il
goodly portion of it, should be dis
tributed among the stockholders.
The company has never paid a
dividend on its 900 shares of stock
and several holders argue that it is
high time they should be recognized
in view of the corporations success.
The directors and officers of the
company, however, contend that
| this sum should remain in the treas
ury for use in the event of any abro-
| CATION of the lease of the coal lands.
| If the present lease should be termi-
mated suddenly, the company would
be compelled to undergo considerable
expense to operate the properties
itself.
There are several other matters to
be threshed over at the annual meet
ing, such as an exhibition of the
books to the stockholders, and the
explfhation of certain accounts in
the annual report.

w. ID. koIIock was up from Wau-
sau Wednesday IN the interest Of the
Sta4dard Oil Co. The price of oil is
expected to take a jump in a SHIRT
time. owing no doubt to some chsri-
table donation made by the oil mag
mates, and for which the people pays
for.
The leap year dance Friday night
proved to be most social affair.
The crowd wasn't as large as was ex-
pected. owing no doubt to the bad
weather. The music was furnished
by Brusso Bros. of Rhinelsnder, and
as usual. was of the highest order Of
perfection. and was enjoyed by all.
Ice cream, cake and sandwiches was
served on the stage during the eve
ming. The ladies proved themselves
to be royal entertainers when the oc-
casion demands it, and the ladies' of
the Royal Neighbor lodge are to be
congratulated for the manner in which
b. dance was conducted. The gen
tlemen in attendance are now giving
forth their praise Tor the way the Ia
dies footed the bills.
