"The provisions in the Idaho ad-
mission bill, 10 which / refer, read
as follows;
"Sec. Z. That 5 per cent of the

proportion of monies which should
rightfully be included in this 5 per

land sales, but which has not yet
been turned over to the state, is in
the neighborhood of $4,000. This

Governor Brady yesterday adj
dressed a letter to Idaho's repre-
sentatives in congress calling at
tention to a provision of the enabl-
ing act, or the admission bill, pro-
Siding that 5 per cent of the pro-
ceeds of the sales OF public lands
lying within the state shall be paid
to the state for the support of COM
mon schools. The chief executive
declares that such amounts have
not been turned over and that Ida
no is being deprived unjustly of a
large sum of money to which it is
rightfully entitled. From the ad-
mission of the state into the union
In 1890 up to the year 1899, not
one cent was received from this
source, be states, and not includ-
ing payments made since that time
approximately $4,000 is still due.
The letter was written in relation
to a bill pending In congress and
which provides for settlement of
accounts between the United States
and the several states.
MONIES PAID STATE
a Governor Brady's letter is, in
part, as follows:
II presume, of courss, that you
are familiar with the provisions OF
the bill and the interests which
the people of Idaho have in the
matter. Not having been connected
with the administration of affairs
in the state in an official capacity
except during my present term,
am unable to state of my own
knowledge just what the facts are
with reference to the proportion
which Idaho can claim under the
provisions OF this act.
81 have, however, discussed the
matter with a number of the Of
ficers of the administration, and
4 have caused some little investiga,
ton to be made, and l find thai
the record in the state treasures
Office discloses the fact that the
first monies were received on &C,
count of this 5 per cent of the net
proceeds of the sale of public lano
in the state on November 6, 1899
in the amount OF $173851; or
April IL, 1900, the state received
$3054.46; on May Is, of the same
year, $3.50; in 1901, April II
$5233.l2; and the record further
discloses that a further amount, al
legged to>represent 5 per cent, has
been received each year by the
treasurer. 1t is therefore to be sup.
posed that $1738.51 represents al.

DISSATISFIED WITH MERGER.
Minority stockholders of Morton Trust
Company May Raise Objections.

Some of the minority stockholders of the
Morton Trust Company. 1t is reported, are
dissatisfied with the terms of the merger of
that institution with the Guaranty and Fifth
Avenue trust companies, and may raise
objection at the special meeting to be held
on January %. They are asking. 1t is said.
why the stockholders Of the Guaranty Trust
Company to have the privilege of sub
scribing for 81 900 900 new stock before the
merger, at par, the value of which prvi-
lege. based upon the price of 1915 a share,
at which the present stock has recently
sold, is figured at about $3.50 a share.
They point out that their company with
$40, 1000 less deposits than the Guaranty,
pays like the latter, % per cent dividends
on 81 100000 capital stock, and that the sur
plus and undivided profits are very little
smaller in amount than those of the Guar
anty, and they intimate that they, too.
would like distribution prior to the carry
ing into execution of the merger plan. 1t
is not believed in well informed quarters
however, that this opposition will be effec-
tive in changing the plan already an
nounced.

DELAY COPPER UNION,
Injunction flinders Utah and
Boston Com D0nies Mercer.

Because of an injunction obtained by
Colonel T.. A. Wall. former owner of the
Utah Copper Company. from Judge Scott.
of the United States Circuit Court. at Tren-
ton. the special meeting of the stock
holders of that company. which was to
have been held yesterday at Jersey City,
was adjourned until January %.
The purpose of the meeting was to have
the stockholders ratify the merger of the
Boston Consolidated Copper Company and
the Utah Copper Company, and also to
vote on the proposition to increase the
capital of the latter concern from 10000
shares to 100000 shares. The proposed
increase in the stock is for the purpose of
exchanging the additional shares for the
shares of the Nevada Consolidated Copper
Company on the basis OF one share of
Utah for two and one-quarter shares of
the latter
The order is returnable Monday at Tren-
ton. but it is understood that efforts will
be made to have the hearing in Newark.
In his petition to the court Colonel Wall,
who says he IL acting for the best inter
ests of the stockholders. although it is
said that he and his associates do not con-
troll more than Thousand shares, charges
that the proposed combination is in viola
tion of the Sherman antitrust law, and
that the basis of consolidation is unfair
to the Utah shareholders. inasmuch as the
Utah property, it is alleged, is worth much
more than indicated by the exchange basis
proposed.
The reason given by Colonel Wall for
his opposition to the merger-that the
Utah is paying too much for the Nevada
Consodated-is the direct opposite to that
advanced by the minority holders of the
Io{t tbn
merger on the ground that the Nevada
stockholders are receiving too little for
their property.
After the adjournment of the meeting 1t
was announced that the management OF the
Utah company was prepared to vote prox-
les aggregating about 81 per cent of the
outstanding stock of the company.
