Charlea Thompson, a stockholder, sues in common pleas against the Toledo Western Railway Co alleging a conspiracy by directors to strip the company. He claims the road was sold via court process to enrich insiders and harms stockholders, seeking an injunction to block bonding or sale of the new company’s assets. The suit cites pre July 1 1906 bond interest, purchases of supplies to create an apparent shortage, and a resulting transfer to the Toledo & Western Railroad Co that ruined $1,100,000 in stock value.
