Big Four Cash Not Held in Ohio Vaults
A complaint in a suit for ouster against the Big Four Railroad seeks to prove charter violations by nonresident directors and funds deposited in New York. Attorney Sawyer says eight directors are not Cincinnati residents, and that Ohio taxes may be evaded by keeping assets out of the state. He promises to file a sworn statement and cooperate with the attorney general, arguing the charter requires local treasurer residency and Cincinnati deposits.
