ARGUE SUIT FOR $1O2, ,OOO, 900.

Boston, Aug. 17.--In the state Su- preme Court today arguments are be- ing heard on the suit for S102, 2,000,000 brought by the minority stockholders in the New Haven railroad against the former directors, in which it is sought to have the former directors held iiaGle for the expenditure of the vast amounts for street railway and steamship lines. The minority stock holders seek tC have the money paid back to the corporation, claiming 1t was spent wrongfully. Specific ale gation is made that $112,0 2,000,000 was spent on street railways in New Eng land that are worth only $56,000,000 that $28,000,000 went for steam rail roads the actual value of which was S12,0OO,000, that $32,000,000 was paid for Boston and Maine stock worth not over $10,000000 and that $37, ,500,00 was used up on the Westchester road for property that did not exceed S19,- 100000 in value.
 The Supreme court has already turned down the suit, but an amended action has been filed and is now the subject of argument between the law years for the minority stockholders and the railroad attorneys. The court has decided that stockholder has no personal right to action against di- rectors who have defrauded corpo- ration and thus affected the value of his stock. Such wrongs, it is decreed, are against the corporation itself, and except through that, have no relation to the stockholders.

ANTHRACITE COAL OUTPUT,
 1914.

Pennsylvania produced 81,092,63l long tons (90,821 ,507 short tons) of anthracite in 1914, according to fig ures made public by the United States Geological Survey, the value of the output at the mines being $1sS,1S1,- 399. This represents but slight de- crease as compared with the previous year, in which the record output of aI i.r7cite was attained. Anthracite is lsed almost, exclusively as a domes- c, f9tl. and fuactuatiors in the de- ..nd depend almost entirely upon the temperature during the winter. The main influence on supply is amount of labor and the time lost by strikes. Labor was abundant in the anthracite regions in 1914, and almost 1SO,OO0
