available for bonus distribution for
the year 1916 is represented by 1890

dupont COmpany's Statement.
The DUPONT Company through its
publicity bureau today issued the fol-
lowing statement:
"This suit brought by Mrs. Perot,
who was associated with Alfred 1.
dupont in the suit brought year ago
and still undecided-to invalidate
the purchase of stock formerly owned
by T. Coleman DUPONT is regarded
as an attack on the company's bonus
plan. This plan is much the same
as that in operation in other large
corporations and has been in oper-
alton in the DUPONT Company since
1905. Under it certain percentage
of the company's annual earnings
since 1911. seven per cent-has been
set aside out of which to make the
distributions.
Last year the amount was unusu-
ally large. because the company's
earnings reached a total of more than
sS7 100000. which gave about $1,000
000 for bonus purposes. officials of
the company have no detailed answer
TO make TO this suit i'm advance oi
the formal answer to be filed I'm the
United States Court.
THE bonus plan, however. has beer
commented on in successive annual
reports. In the last report the pres.
ident discussed il most enthusiastic.
ally. After reviewing the company's
remarkable record for a year, he gave
some interesting figures on the dis
tribution. In this section Of his re
port he said

uation is the bonus plan of the com.

by said scheme, amounted to a mere
gift of the companys property at a
time and under circumstances when
no legal or moral obligation to make
said gift or TO deliver shares was
incumbent upon IT,"
Mrs. Perot AYERS that 14349 shares
or common stock of the new DUPONT
company and at cost OF S5.452.6 $50
0O3f shares OF common stock of the
old company at cost of $500, 700 were
acquired prior TO February, 1916. and
that lO,26O shares OF common stock
OF the new company at a cost of
N.3lS,S00 and 14,0S3 shares OF the de-
benture stock Of the new company al
a cost of S1,492,000 were acquired be-
tween February, 1916, and February
1917. She AYERS the price paid was
approximately $3.50 a share for COM
mon stock and $3.50 a share for the
other stocks.
Mrs. PerOt further alleges:
THAT the said Pierre S. dupont and
the other directors herein averred Il
have participated in the conspiracy OF

33,609 shares OF the common stock
and said 14.92S shares OF the de-

edge or means of knowing. with au-
thority to vote said shares Of stock

of said person or persons in order that
said scheme may be carried ont with
the intent that said person or persons
shall, at some future time. deliver the
said certificates 10 defendants or to
some of them and TO other persons
whose names the complainant has no
accurate knowledge or means of
knowing; the persons 10 whom said
delivery is TO be made. including the

"That the directors who partici-
pated in said scheme and who are
still acting as directors OF the said
corporation defendant constitute a
majority OF the board OF directors
thereof, and any effort to persuade
said board OF directors to remedy the
wrong done to said company by said
majority would be futile and unayail-
ing.
."All OF which acts, wrongs and
pretences OF the said defendants are
contrary to equity and good. con
science. and tend to the manifest
wrong, injury and oppression OF the
complainant in the premises" Mrs
Perot in the bill asks;

the defendants to state an account OF

chase OF the said $500 shares OF
