Hew He Get Caught In a Turn en North
ern Pacific.
New Yerk World.
The suit pending for an injunction te
straiuitix the issue of $18,000,000 of reserv
ed stock by the Northern Pacific railroad
company, has brought te mind, and gives
importance again te the career, chiefly en
paper aud in the halls of Congress, of the
Northern Pacific company since its char
ter was granted in 18(54. The following
statement, obtained from a gentleman
thoroughly conversant with the history
aud affairs of the company, contains many
facts net contained or hinted at in the
papers en which the preliminary injunc
tion was issued, and also some information
as te the way iu which a great enterprise
which has something of a national charac
ter and has secured national grants hatH
been managed for the benefit of a very
few persons, at least euc of whom new
holds a high and responsible position in
the government.
The charter of the Northern Pacific rail
road company was granted July 2, 1864,
and provided that the persons named
therein should be a beard of commissioners
and should meet at Bosten te organize and
te open books for subscriptions for the
stack and it was provided that as seen as
subscriptions were made iu geed faith for
20,000 shares and $10 per share had been
actually paid in, the subscribers wcre te
elect directors and officers te succed te all
the rights aud duties of the original com
missioners whose duties were then te ter
minate. The charter provided that the
beard of directors should require pay
ment of a 10 per cent, cash assessment
upon all subscriptions received el" all sub
scribers," and the remainder should be
paid as needed te complete the read. The
amount of stock authorized was $100,000,
000, se that when all was subscribed for
there should be iu the treasury at least
$10,000,000 with which te begin the enter
prise. On September 1, 1804, the com
missioners met at Bosten and organized,
and books of subscription were opened.
According te a report made in the fall of
18G4 mere than 20,000 shares of this capi
tal stock wcie actually subset ibed for and
$10 per share actually paid up. On De
cember 6, 18G4 at a meeting of these sub
scribers, there appealed te be 20,073
shares subscribed ler, se that the compa
ny's treasury should have held $200,750 ;
and at this meeting these subscribers pro
ceeded te elect thirteen directors of the
company, who completed the organization
by the election of officers.
Netice of the acceptance was shortly
afterwards served en the president of the
United States, and this great corporation
swui'g out upon its career with an author
ized capital of $100,000,000, a gilt of pub
lic lands of mere that 50,000,000 acres,
' extending in a biead belt from Wiscon
sin through the richest portions of Minne
sota, Dakota, Mentana, Idaho, Oregon
and AVashingten territory te Puget
Sound," a domain larger than all the New
England states with Maryland added, with
a prospective power of levying tells, and
taxes upon millions of the people of this
country for gcneiatiens. Shortly after
wards theie was added the light te issue
mortgage bends te the extent of $125,000,
900. In 180G the company appeared be be
1'eic Cengiess aud obtained an extension
of two years for "commencing" and com
pleting its toads. In 1803 it obtained a
scceud act granting te the company all its
rights, privileges and lands en condition
" that the said c(tpany shall commence
the work en said read within two years."
Iu 18C9 the right te issue mortgage bends
was granted, and a further right te
meitgagc was granted iu 1870. Thus for
six years prier te 1S70 it appears that the
company was net building its read, and it
might be supposed that it was engaged in
obtaining subset iptiens for its stock and
preparing te build, for by the charter un
less the company " shall obtain bona fide
subscriptions of the stock te the amount
of $2,000,000, with 10 per centum paid
within two years " after the passage of
the act, then the chaitr was te be void.
This time by the act of 1808 was extended
only te 1870.
The injunction litigation has brought te
light the hitherto concealed transactions
of persons who from the beginning have
mauaged the property and the great
grants of power, and will disclose the pri
vate contracts and agreements which will
show the manner in which this important
trust and enterprise has. been manipulated
le the advantage of a few men, Secretary
Wuidem being one of them, and hew the
manifest puipose of Cengiess has been
diverted from its national character te
that of a private enterprise.
It is te be remembered that $100,000,000
capital was te be opened te subscriptions,
and upon subscriptions up'en any p.nt of it
10 per cent, was te be paid in money, and
as the needs of the company should re
quire, the subscribers were te pay ether
assessments in money up te the par value
of their subscriptions. Ne ether modeot
issuing or acquiring this capital stock was
contemplated, and this souice of funds,
with the lauds estimated by the charter te
be worth at least $123,000,000, was te be
employed for building and equipping this
national railroad. In addition te this, the
power was subsequently granted te issue
mortgage bends te the extent of $123,000,
000, as the building of. the read went en.
The litigation above referred te involves
the issue of about one hundred and eighty
thousand shares' of stock of the par
value of $18,000,000, the market price of
which at the time of the alleged issue was
about $9,000,000. It new appears that
one certificate for the whole of the 180,000
shares was placed by the company with
the transfer agent about the 18th of March,
the time the issue was authorized by the
executive committee, and immediately
divided up by transfers upon the books
among a small number f persons, by far
the greater part eeing directly te the offi
cers and some of the directors of the com
pany ; the president of the company re
ceiving at least 17,000 shares, the treas
urer mere than G,000 shares and Secretary
Windem 2,146. Ne pretense is made that
the company received anything ler this
$9,000,000 worth of property. It is ex
plained that these shares were distributed
te these persons as holders of " old pro
prietary interests." "This is a conve
nient expression," remarked the World's
informant at this point, "and has a real
meaning, as we shall see by looking into
these injunction papers, where the secret
agreements we have spoken of first liud
publicity."
On January 10. 1867, au agreement was
entered into by some twelve persons
among whom are four of the defendants
in this suit, whieh after describing the
character of the Northern Pacific com
pany, says that " the control of said char
ter and franchise is new in the hands of
J. Gregery Smith, of St. Alban's, Vt.,
and his associates, and said Smith and his
associates have paid for the procurement
of the charter aud ether expenses (the
procuring of congressional aid) the sum of
$102,000 in cash exclusive of any compen
sation for himself and his associates, aud
hare issued the certificate of indebted
ness of the company bearing interest from
March, 1866, for $100,000 additional, and
have agreed te recognize the stock of the
company issued by Jesiah Perham, late
president of the company, te the amount
of $600,000." It then proposes " te divide
the said enterprise into twelve shares,- t
be valued at the rate of $8,500 per share,
and agrees that each of the twelve persons
subscribers hereto shall pay en demand
of said Smith the sum of $3,500 for
each .one-twelfth part or share in
said enterprise,' and upon payment shall
'become jointly interested with said Smith
and bis associates according te the number
of shares or parts et shares se subscribed
for by him in the charter and franchise of
the Northern Pacific railroad, with all its
rights, powers, privileges and immuni
ties.' " It then provides for a combined
attempt te get further aid and legislation
from Congress, and that "each share in
the enterprise shall be entitled te one di
rector in the company " te be thereafter
elected. On July 3, 1867, another agree
ment was made between the same persons
te" use" further effort te obtain aid from
Congress, that assessments net te exceed
$12,500 might be made upon any of the
twelve parts or -shares as 'contribution for
expenses in obtaining legislation. On May
20, 18G9, an agreement was made between
J. Gregery Smith as president and six of
the directors of the company acting as exr
ecutive committee, en the one part, and
Jay Coeke & Company en the ether part.
This agreement recites the division of
interest into the twelve parts or
shares, and creates six (afterwards
increased te twelve) mere parts te
be held and enjoyed by Jay Coeke & Ce.,
subject te the two agreements of 18G7,
giveu above. It then provides that " the
capital stock of said company, $100,000,
000, shall be appropriated as fol fel
lows, that is te say, $80,001,000 thereof
shall be subscribed for by the representa
tives of the eighteen (afterwards twenty
four) shares above described in equal pro
portions by each share, and shall be issued
in full paid up stock te each of said eigh
teen shares," $2,241,000 of which was te
be issued at once, aud the remainder from
time te time ; and " the residue of said
capital stock, $19,999,000, shall be deliv
ered te Jay Coeke & Ce., iu fully paid up
stock of equal value with the rest of said
stock " in such amounts that Jay Coeke &
Ce. shall have $200 of stock (afterwards
increased te $400) for every $1,000 of the
bends of the company sold by them. The
agreement then provided for the issue by
the company of one hundred millions of
bends te be negotiated by Jay Coeke &
Ce. The thirteenth section of this agree-
in ant provides for tbe payment te all the
holders of these eighteen (afterwards
twenty-four) parts or shares for all
amounts paid by them or expenses in
curred, with interest, and for their per
sonal services, by giving them these bends
of the company at the rate of 88 cents en
the dollar. Se that new J. Gregery Smith
and his associates, including secretary
Windem, and the twelve shareholders who
occame liable te pay for legislation, &c,
get back their money with interest in
marketable bends at 12 per ceut. below
par. The $GOO,000 worth of stock said te
have been "issued by Jesiah Perham, late
president of the company," was also by
the agreement te be taken up and retired
with these bends at the rate of GO cents en
the dollar of said stock.
But the most remarkable exposure
made by this agreement is its recital of the
fact that thu 20,000 shares originally sub
scribed for, and upon which the company
was organized at Bosten, had been " for
feited fcr non-payment of assessment."
It is therefore known new out of the
mouths of the persons attgpresent
claiming this $18,000,000 of new stock
that all the originally subscribed
stock had been extinguished; that the
G,000 shares of Perham stock, however
created, was te be extinguished ; that J.
Gregery Smith " and his associates" and
the persons afterwards joining him in the
enterprise for getting congressional aid
that is, these present payments wcre te be
paid for all advances " and compensation
for personal services and expei.ses" out of
company bends at an extravagant shave.
The agreement shows mere, by implica
tieu that at this time, excepting the G, 000
Perham stock te be immediately extin
guished, there wiiK no stock of this com
pany of any kind in existence ; nene had
been ever subscribed for as contemplated
by the charter except, the 20,000 shares
already forfeited. But the parties te these
agreements calling themselves the North
ern Pacific railroad company, without sub
scription or payment of 10 per cent, as re
quired by the charter, without considera
tion te the company from them of any
kind, because all their expenses, advances
and personal services weie paid for in bends
te peiseus, without the payment of a
dollar, agreed te issue te themselves and
Jay Coeke & Ce., $80,000,000 of stock, and
besides this te issue te J. Coeke & Ce., a
further $19,999,000 at the rate of $400 for
every $1,000 bend the latter should sell.
A large part of the $80,000,000 was te be
divided at once ameug these persons, and
the remainder te be issued, but always te
them, as the read was built. This is, then
the "old proprietary interests," aud these
persons and their "assigns" are the
" proprietors" who upon this state of facts
claimed the ownership of and have receiv
ed from themselves, as the company, the
$18,000,000 stock just issued. t
But a word need be said as te the effect
of the foreclosure by the bondholders in
1875. Under this foreclosure all the
prepeity and franchises of the company
were sold te thu bondholders, reprcsente 1
by a committee of which Secretary Win Win
eom was a member, and a " plan " of re
organization was agreed te by which pre
ferred stock was issued in exchange for
bends, and new common stock in substitu
tion of old common stock.
The original twelve "proprietors" were
J. Gregery Smith, W. B. Ogden, R. II.
Burdcll, D. N. Barney, K. H. Barney, B.
P. Cheney, W. G. Farge, G. W. Cass, J.
Edgar, Thomsen and Edward Rcilley.
When Jay Coeke became the financial
aent of the cempiuy and the number of
proprietors" was increased te twenty
four, Mr. Secretary Windem appears in
official connection with the company. The
ConaretStenal Recerd shows that Secretary
IWindem's connection with the scheme
was most intimate during all the time he
was Senater. In the last Congress he ran
a bill further extending the time of the
Northern Pacific read, and giving it
even greater privileges than it be bo be
fere possessed, through, the Senate railroad
committce, of which he was a member,
and then by persistent pushing get it
passed through the Senate. The agree
ment of these "proprietors" was that of
the $80,001,000 left after Jay Coeke had
been granted $19,999,000 for selling bends,
$2,241,000 was te be issued te them di
rectly and the remainder, $77,760,000, was
te be issued "$i0,000 te each of said twenty-four
shares whenever and se often as
twenty-five miles of said read is completed
se as te be run ever by cars." The com
pany has new completed about six hun
dred and fifty miles of read and according
te this agreement but about one third of
this $77,760,000 should new be issued and
the executive committee have again vio
lated the agreement in issuing this last
$18,000,000 of "reserve" stock. These pay
ments were se arranged that the last should
be made when the read should be completed
but the stock has all been issued, and
there are between 1,200 and 1,500 miles of
read yet te be built. In short it appears
that net only the $18,000,000 recently is
sued but all the stoek of the read has beeb
issued in contravention of the cherter, net
one cent being paid in for it, and that it
was divided up among Secretary Win
dem, Jay Coeke and the ethers who call
themselves owners of " proprietary inter
ests." Mr. Secretary Windem get his full
share of the $18,000,000 as was his due
as a " proprietor," about 1-90 of the whole,
aud he was one of the first after the issue
was authorized en March 18 te rush te the
Trust company with his stock. He sold it,
but under the ruling of the Stock Exchange
no Northern Pacific stock bearing a date
subsequent te March 18 was considered a
geed delivery, and se Mr. Secretary Win Win
eom had te go into the market and buy it
back at 42 and 43, which was mere than
he had sold it for.
