AGREED UPON A PLAN.
Lehigh Valley to Divide Six Millions
Among the Stockholders.

Philadelphia, Jan. l2.-At separate
meetings in this city yesterday of the
directorates of the Lehigh Valley Rail
road company and the Lehigh Valley
Coal company, plan to divorce the
concern in the mining and selling of coal
was agreed upon and as a result $500
800 will be divided among the preferred
and common stockholders of the rail
road company.
To carry out the plan of the directors
the coal company decided to form new
company to be known as the Lehigh
Valley Coal Sales company to be in
corporated under the laws of New Jer-
sey, with an authorized capital of $l0,-
100000.
The action of the concern is in con-
formity with a decision by the United
States court in this city which held in
the famous commodities case that it was
unlawful for any railroad company to
transport any article or commodity, 9th
er than lumber, mined or manufactured
by any concern which it controlled. The
Lehigh Valley Railroad company con-
trolls the Lehigh Valley Coal company.
