A BIG B.&L. FINDING.
That Defunct Merchants and Mechan
ics' Association is Revived.
BOfiROWIXG SHAREHOLDERS HELD
As losers, Together With Those Who Could
Rot Desert the Ship.
. JfO LIABILITI FOE PEEMID31S BI THEM
John Bodgers, assignee of the Merchants
fend Mechanics' Building and Loan Asso
ciation of Allegheny, vs Henry Brooks et
'al., is the title of a suit which has been
lieard at great length before the Master,
John H. Kerr, Esq., and Mr. Kerr has com
pleted his report in the case. It is of en
grossing interest to all members of such as
sociations who have any suspicion that their
affairs are not wisely conducted. The asso
ciation was incorporated July 16, 1869,
under the law ot 1859, and continued to do
business for seven years. The par
value of the shares was 5200, and
it was expected to run its
course in eight years. But it stranded, and on
Jclj-21, 1SSI. an assignment for the benefit of
creditors was made to "William Walton, who
was subsequently relieved of tic trust, and
fJohn Rogers was appointed by court assignee
Instead, August 12 1SS2.
Now on Jnne 23, 1S75, a resolution was passed
by the Board of Directors, and assented to by
tome stockholders, and dissented from by
others, by which borrowing stockholders were
allowed to anticipate payment of their loans,
nnd non-borrowing stockholders to withdraw
and receive half of their accumulated profits,
earned or supposed to be. A large number of
borrowers and stockholders did so, and the as
sociation surrendered securities and paid out
funds until it was discovered that it had lost
about $12,000.
LIABLE WITH THE OTHERS.
Prior to making the deed of assignmentmany
of the stockholders had given notice of with
drawal, and, as the association at the date of
many of such notices had ceased to hold meet
ings or keep records, no record was kept of
euch withdrawals. Some seceders had been
paid, and thus had prior to the assignment
brought suit. ,
It is held that as a matter of law all losses
should be Dorne proportionately by all stock
holders, and that the amounts due the associa
tion by withdrawers, as ell as what was due
Xrom borrowers, are dependent npon the pres
ent value of the stock. There was a snarl.
T5ome who were non-borrowers denied
that they were present or assented to the reso
lution of June, 1876, or were responsible for the
results. Some non-borrowing defendants
neither admitted nor denied, but virtually ad
mitted all the other averments in the plaintiff's
bill, and joined in the prayer to have the mat
ter adjudicated by a court of equity.
As is frequently the case, the association
Fold loans and the borrowers paid premiums
thereon. The master cites much law and many
Xulings on similar cases, and decides that It
wonld not be equity to compel these borrowers
to pay the premiums, as the association did not
'perform its part of the contract, and in brief
Lis finding is that all should share equally in
profits and losses, and some, who ought to be
made contribute, cannot be made do so, as the
statute of limitations would intervene,
i William Walton filed his account July 15,
I1SS2, which shows that all the large creditors
'were paid, and a balance of 1,325 40 was paid
over to his successor, Rodgers.
GOVERNED BY CIRCUMSTANCES.
As the association practically ceased to do bus-
fness after January 7, 1S7S, the question arises
Vhether withdrawn stockholders, nnpaid at the
date of the assignment, be treated as general
creditors, and be paid the value of their stock
at time of withdrawal, or have any prior
ity of claim over stockholders who
Etuck to the ship. The withdrawals
were made at a time when the association was
in the throes of dissolution and withdrawers
should not be allowed any preference, and it is
lield that non-borrowers are uot entitled to any
thing more than borrowers, although, as con
tended, the borrowers were in the majority
and had control. The ground taken is that the
Board of Directors represented all the members
vt the association, and beside, the assignee is a
non-borroer, and his acceptance of the trust,
if not a ratification, is at least a sanction of the
validity of the assignment.
Stripped of the premium question, etc, the
balances due from borrowers will meet non
borrowers' claims and still leave a profit, or
surplus, of SI 91 per share to each of the 298
Beautiful Engraving Free.
"Will They Consent?" is a magnifi
cent engraving, 19x21 inches. It is an
exact copy of an original painting by Kwall,
which was sold for $5,000.
This elegant engraving represents a young
lady standing in a beautiful room, sur
rounded by all that is luxurious, near a
half-open door, while the young man, her
lover, is seen in an adjoining room asking
the consent of her parents for their daughter
in marriage. It must be seen to be appreciated.
This costly engraving -will be given awar
free, to every person purchasing a small
box of Wax Starch.
This starch is something entirely new,and
is without a doubt the greatest starch in
vention of the nineteenth century (at least
everybody says so that has used it). It
supersedes everything heretofore used or
known to science in the laundry art. Un
like any other starch, as it is made with
pure white wax. It is the first and only
starch in the world that makes ironing
easy and restores old summer dresses and
skirts to their natural whiteness, and im
parts to linen a beautiful and lasting finish
as wnen new.
Try it and be convinced of the whole
truth.

Our customers will please observe that owing to an increased de
mand for space, we have been obliged to remove our Kid Glove Depart
ment from the Fifth avenue store to the first counter on the left aisle of
our Market street store. Our Art Department is now in the Fifth avenue
annex, while our Embroidery and White Goods Departments are still in
the Market street store, but both greatly enlarged.
