Suit to Rec0Uer Losses.

F. Augustus Heinze. David Lamar and NJ. Roth

per Company stock, which recently advanced the
price to above SS a SHARE have been served with
papers in a suit TO recover S.750 brought against
them in the Supren Court by the New York Stock
Exchange house Of c. I. Hudson & Co. The action
is the outgrowth of transaction the curb in-
volving FIVE hundred shares Of Ohio Copper stock
which the firm alleges il sold to a representative
Of the pool at or near IS q share, and which he
refused to take up when 1t rendered to him.
The stock subsequently broke 70 IS 90 share and
the amount named IN the suit is what the Arm
claims have lost through having TO sell the nve
hundred shares at the lower figure following the
alleged failure OF the pools curb representative to
live UP to his contract.
The price OF Ohio Copper stock was advanced 70
above IS, but when support was withdrawn the
price broke to under s6 90 around which figure It
has since remained A number of buying orders,
ostensibly for the pool were traced to ons OF the
individual members. These orders were repudisted
when settlement time arrived by the other MEM
bers OF the pool who declared that their names
had been used irregulariy by those conducting the
campaign in the stock
Mr. Heinze has steadfastiy maintatsed that he
had absolutely nothing do with the recent ad-
vance in the stock.
