N. H. MINORITY WINS RULING

Boston, Jan. %. The Supreme court
virtually empowered minority stock
holders Of the New York. New Haven
& Hartford Railroad to-day 70 proceed
in the name Of the corporation IN their
suit to recover from former directors
Of the road SlO2. 100000 alleged 20 have

Judge Bradley, IN allowing two
amendments 70 this effect. which were
filed recently by minority interests. al
lowed the respondents thirty days IN
which 20 demur or plead.
Counsel for the respondents in
formed the court that they probably
would demur 20 the amendments, as
they had 20 the original bill. The de-
murr,r against the bill was sustained
by the full bench on the ground that
the uii! did not set forth a sufficient
cause Of action.
The amendments contend that. the
railroad corporation having refused 70
proceed against its former officers. the
minority interests should be given the
right to sue in the name Of the road
