Securities Company, of New Jersey,
can now be voted at the annual meet
ing In this city March 25.
The decision contains ten thousand
words. It states thai no act prejudi
i ml lu the Illinois Central or its stock
holders has been shown to have been
doue unless the mere fact that the
rnlon Pacific Railroad and Securi
ties Company owns 29 per cent of the
stock of the lllihois Central be con
sidered so
davits of well-known and reputable
uien may be considered true,
i The court declared that corpora
tions are not barred from buying and
holding stuck v in other corporations,
and the fact that a purchaser might
he a foreign corporation and the
stock that of a domestic corporation
could not change the rule of law.
Attorneys for Fish agreed that the
opinion could not be appealed from.
"The merits of the case," said At
torney Karrar, "must now be tried
and a decree entered, and then we
will be able to take an appeal."
The matter will be takon up as
soon as possible.
President llurahaii. of the Illinois
Cnetral, is overjoyed because of the
decision.
