Counsel for the Union Pacific Railroad
Company received notice yesterday of
the suit 20 be filed by the Equitable Life
Assurance Society asking for an injunc-
ton against the proposed distribution
Of its Baltimore & Ohio stock TO the COM
mon stockholders Of the Union Pacific.
Il is expected the complaint in the action
will he filed to-day In the state courts.
As holder of 1912 shares Of Union Pacific
preferred stock. the Equitable Society
claims the right 10 enjoin the distribu-
ton
Judge william A Day. president Of the
Equitable as we'll as counsel FOR the
company. declined yesterday 10 discuss
the suit. but It was understood that II
was essentially in the nature OF friend
" action. The holders OF the Union IA
cifc preferred stock contend that the
baltimore & Ohio stock became part
~ tho fixed assets and capital investment
Of the Union Pacific company at the time
the latter corporation acquired It, and
therefore. they have a right TO share In
tho distribution. The company, on the
other hind. contends that the stock must
be figured as part Of the surplus.
II. W. Clark, counsel for the Union
Pacific. said yesterday that the complaint
in the action had not yet been served on
the company. lie declined TO discuss the
contemplated action further, but IT was
learned that notice Of the suit had been
received and formal filing OF the COM
nlaint in the state courts expected TO-
day.
The executive committee OF the Union
Pacific recommended on January o. l'lf'
tho distribution to its common Stockholm
ers of the company's holdings OF Balu-
more & Ohio stock, together with 20 a
share in cash. The directors approved
the recommendation two days later. The
transaction involves over 100000, the
Union Paclfc's holdings OF Baltimore q
Ohio stock being (par value s-s'4so"o
nreferred and $50 6o7.so0 common. The eX-
ecutive committee recommended at the
same time that IL the distribution was
carried into effect the regula ar annual
dividend be correspondingly reduced from
10 per cent TO per cent per annum.
