To Minority Stockholders.

Copies of this letter were sent to over
thirty of the forty minority stockholders OF
the railroad. The committee reported that
not a single reply has been received from
any of the persons addressed or from their
attorneys. L. II. Patterson stated to the
meeting. however, that, in conversation
with one of the minority stockholders he
learned that this one was willing to accede
to the request of this letter 1t was pointed
out that the object of this letter originally
was to get the minority stockholders to pc
tition the court for a reconsideration of the
former order, instead of the citizens max
ing the request, believing that it would
have a greater effect. In view of the legal
steps already taken by the lexington asso-
citation, which will be supported by the
joint committee. this will be an additional
move in the fight, and if the minority stock
holders accede to the request II Will make
the petition of the citizens associations all
the stronger, as having the backing of the
minority stockholders, who originally re-
quested the order which has proved so OBJ
jectionable.
A motion of President Lawson of the
Langdon association, that this committee
combine with the North Capitol and Eek
ington association in the steps which they
have taken in hiring counsel to take up a
legal fight, resulted in a discussing of the
best means to be used in the fight. Pres:-
dent Kinnan of the Brookland association
favored the motion He stated that it was
a lawyers opinion that the court did not
have all the law on the subject before 1t
on the former hearing; particularly il did
not consider the laws of Congress Of 1894
and 1896, requiring all connecting lines to
give transfers and requiring the Capital
and Metropolitan traction companies to
give transfers to each other. Judge Ander-
son has expressed a willingness TO graEc
rehearing petition of the proper par
ties. To gain such a rehearng is what the
lexington association is trying to do. and
so It was proper, he thought that their eff
forts should be supported by this commit
tee. Capt Bartlett of Brentwood spoke In
favor of the motion. and it was then voted
upon and carried unanimously. The passage
of that motion means that there Will be
entire harmony in the fight among the citi-
zens affected by the order.
The subject of the wherewithall to carry
on the fight was considered and 1t was
understood that the joint committee and the
associations it represents would cooperate
with the lexington association financially
az well as otherwise. Mayor Wells stated
that he would start q subscription list in
HyattSVlle this morning to raise the neces-
sary portion of the expense. 1t was recon-
mended that each citizen interested should
give 81, as is to be done In the Ellington
ISOLATION. The joint funds will be placed
in the hands of A. o. Tingley, 10 Quincy
street northeast, treasurer of the lexington
association.

COTTON DECLARED CoNTRABAND.
decision of Russian Admiralty Court
May Be Combat

In cabling the State Department that the
high court Of the admiralty at St Peters.
burg has reversed the decision OF the Vladi-
vostok prize court and ordered the liberia.
ton of the steamer Calchas and most of
her cargo, Ambassador Meyer SAYS that
the articles Of her cargo were liberated
all being American goOds-5O0o sacks OF
flour belonging to Harrington. $500 belong
ing to Findley Richardson. 1900 belonging
10 Samuel Samuels. The court confiscated
80 bales OF cotton and 90 pieces OF wood,
and held a pieces of electrical machinery
awaiting the decision OF the Vladivostok
prize court.
1t Is probable that the Department OF
State Will contest the decision that cotton
Is contraband. The officials here express
the opinion that II was declared contra
band on the ground that 1t might be made
into guncotton, war supply, while the
real reason, they suggest, was a desire 10
prevent the Japanese cotton mills from re-
ceiving supplies OF the raw material which
might be made up into clothing for the
Japanese army.
The Calchas is English steamer Of tho
Alfred Fl. Holt line. plying between Ta-
coma, Wash and Liverpool. touching at
japanese and Chinese ports She was seiz.
ed last August by a Russian cruiser.

able, to the detriment of your property.
Many former patrons of the b. & O. now
use your road. A considerable percentage
OF these Will return to the steam road If
their daily travelling expenses are doubled.
as VIII often be the case. Others Will
patronize other electric railways which do
give transfers. where they can do so by
walking a little farther than at present.
Much of the mere ride for pleasure traffic
Will fall off. But most important OF ALL
jewellers in the city will be prevented from
seeking homes along your line. Already
several navy yard employees have Cancelled
contracts for suburban homes on the rumor
of a change. The bureau of engraving is
likewise cut off and we can look for no
more suburban settlers from that quarter
The families of those in the departments
and places of business Immediately along
your lines are more or less interested In
transfer privileges, and even those will
hesitate to recommend their friends to
move in our direction.
while recognize your right to re-
ceive a fair return for the money invested
in this stock. we believe the present move,
which will seriously injure the communities
through which your railway passes, viii
in the long run react on the stockholders
and make their stock of less value than
would a continuance of the present liberal
policy of transfers.
I'VE therefore respectfully ask stock
holders moving in this matter to reconsider
their former action and unite in a request
to the court to do likewise.
