I. c. DUPONT'S STOCK
COMPANY States
continued from First page.


dupont Common stock will be paid
on December Is. While the declara-
ton of that dividend is questioned in
the suit. Judge Bradford made the sub
poena returnable December 2S. which
is thirteen days beyond the date for
payment Of the dividend. At the Of
fee OF William G. Mahaffy, clerk Of
the court. the statement was made,
in response to a query, that no order
had been issued in the suit that would
hold up payment of the dividend on
December 10. Any action to stop
payment OF that dividend would have
20 be in addition to the present SUIT.
William S. Hilles and John =. Laffey
are counsel for the DUPONT Company
and its directors. Just who will he
associated with them in combating
the suit has not been determined.
An interesting report was going
the rounds today regarding the suit
attacking the DUPONT Securities Com
pany, which in financial circles is
referred to as the pool" holding
stock formerly held and sold by Cen
eral T. Coleman dupont According
TO the report shortly after General
DUPONT sold his stock to Pierre S.
dupont and his associates and the
dupont Securities Company was
formed. agents Of the Federal Depart
ment OF Justice were assigned to in
vestigate the Securities Company to
determine whether it contlicted with
he Sherman law prohibiting restraint
of trade It is said the Federal in
vestigators were given full Oppor-
tunity by the dupont officials to in
quire into every phase OF the DUPONT
Securities Company, and satished
themselves that it did not conflict
with the Sherman law. The govern
ment does not appear as party in
the Philip +. DUPONT suit.
According to allegations in the
complaint filed by Philip f. dupont,
General +. Coleman DUPONT offered
to sell 10000 shares of common stock
10 the DUPONT Company at $3.50 a
share. That stock was not bought by
the company, however, and later on
Pierre S. DUPONT bought from General
DUPONT $4,000 shares of dupont COM
mon at 5000 a share, or $12,600,000,
and 1870 shares OF preferred stock
at $S5 a share, or S1,272 ,450. In addi-
ton, General DUPONT also sold $500
shares of stock, on which he had an
option, for S1320. 900. This makes "a
total Of S15,192,4 ,450 paid by Pierre S.
DUPONT for General duPont's stock
which later passed into the dupont
Securities Company. The common
stock since then has increased in mar
ket value to equivalent to $500 a
share, or four and one-half times
what p. S. DUPONT paid for it. In
other words, the stock has increased
in market value from S150O0.000, in
round figures, TO 65,00O,OOO or more
On the stock at time Of purchase, il
was alleged in the complaint, $780,
900 was paid in cash by p. S. DUPONT
and the remainder was TO be paid in
'nstallments.
