JUDGE LOVETT DEFENDS
DISTRIBUTION OF STOCK
Says Protest Of Union Pacific
BOnlhOlders Must BE
Ignored.

Robert ;. Lovett. chairman Of the board
OF directors OF the Union Pacific. said
yesterday that the company would not
change the terms OF the special dividend
IN which approximately SS2.O0O,000 in
Baltimore and Ohio stock is to he dis
tributcd to the holders OF the common
stock together with n cash payment The
convertible bond holders have protested
against the distribution asking that suf-
hcient Baltimore and Ohio stock be set
aside for holders of tho bonds who con-
vert In the future.
Tho present dividend Is limited TO
stockholders OF record March =. though
the convertible privilege extends to July
l. 1917. Bondholders feel that with the
payment Of the SO per cent. dividend to
the common stock and the reduction OF
the dividend rate from ~ to 5 per cent.
the conversion privilege is greatly reduced
In value II exercised after March ..
Judge Lovett said:
The distribution IL OF accumulated
surplus profits, plainly applicable as divi-
bends only on common stock and is
chargeabe TO surplus and not capital.
There Is nothing In the convertible bonds
Or in the ind.nture under which they
were issued that impairs the ordinary
right of stockholders 10 n distribution at
any time of the entire profits. or that
limits the power of the company with
respect to rate OF dividends. increase of
stock. reduction OF surplus or otherwise.
The company promised to pay the princi-
pal and the interest ard TO convert the
bonds at a certain rate during II certain
period at the option OF the holder and
that was absolutely all Il promised.
The suggestions that have been made
TO- reduction OF the convertible rate
or for setting aside securities for the
benefit OF the convertible bondhold.rs
whenever they choose TO convert were
carefully considered. but are impossible
because Illegal and In plain violation OF
the rights OF the common stockholders.
such action would be annulled BY the
courts or If effected would render the d.
rcctors personally liable"
