CLASS W SHAREHOLDERS FIGHT. Anxious to Maintain Preferred Right in New York Building Loan Banking Company. There was a meeting of the New York Building Loan Banking Company's creditors yesterday in the office of Referee Walter S. Logan. Alfred L. Becker, representing Attorney General Mayer, said he believed that the company had sufficient assets to justify a dividend, not of 15, but probably of 20 per cent. This was in answer to Receiver George W. Breston's demand that a dividend of 15 per cent be declared. Attorneys representing disallowed claims, especially those of the Class W shareholders, opposed Mr. Breston's request on the ground that were such a dividend declared the assets would not permit the payment of claims now disallowed, but which might subsequently be established. The meeting adjourned until next Tuesday. F. B. Woodruff, Oscar B. Bergstrom and Charles C. Cormany represented the disallowed claimants. Charles W. Dayton represented the receiver. Referee Logan disallowed the opposition's contentions, the question, however, being renewable by the Supreme Court. The holders of Class W stock maintain that either the issue of their class of stock was invalid, or else it was valid and their claims as "creditors" should take precedence over other claims. The other side maintains that as "guarantors" Class W stockholders should not have recognition until all other claims shall have been satisfied.

COURT ASKED FOR DIVIDEND GRANT. New York Building Loan Banking Company Settlement Expected on May 1. The hopes of about two hundred investors in the New York Building Loan Banking Company. which went to the wall some years ago, were dashed to the ground by the announcement by Charles W. Dayton, counsel for the receiver, in the County Court, before Justice Dowling, that it would be impossible to make a settlement before May 1 next. The presence of the people was accounted for by notices of the decision of Charles M. Preston, the receiver, to apply to Justice Dowling for permission to pay a 15 per cent dividend. In asking the court to approve the request, Mr. Preston said that nearly a year ago the receiver had applied for permission to do the same thing. but that opposition among the larger stockholders developed, and a new referee was appointed. Continuing, he said that the receiver now had on hand $600,000 in cash, and assets valued at half that amount. Mr. Dayton believed the receiver would be able to distribute the money by May 1 next. Alfred L. Becker, representing the Attorney General, suggested that instead of the 15 per cent dividend, one of 20 per cent be allowed. He argued for the speedy closing of the receivership. Justice Dowling took the papers and reserved decision, but he told counsel that they could look for an early decision.

# TIRED STOCKHOLDERS SELL OUT. Preferred Shares of New York Building Loan Banking Company Go Cheap. Many holders of stock of the defunct New York Building Loan Banking Company were selling their shares yesterday to the Corporation Liquidating Company and W. N. Coler & Co., receiving 10, 12 or 15 cents on the dollar of face value, according to the class of shares they had to dispose of. The buyers would offer nothing for shares of the class corresponding to common stock. The company has been in the hands of Charles M. Preston, as receiver, for several years. Mr. Preston only a few days ago asked permission of the court to pay a dividend of 15 per cent on shares of the preferred classes, but the motion was opposed by the holders of Class W shares. Some of the shareholders have begun to fear that they never will receive any dividends. Mr. Hole, of W. N. Coler & Co., said yesterday that his firm was simply buying the company shares on the order of a customer. Mr. Preston has been answering all inquiries by saying that he hopes to pay 50 cents on the dollar to most shareholders as soon as the affairs of the wrecked company can be settled. The receiver has been involved in much litigation on account of claims against the company and is unable to say when the court will permit him to make a final report.
