The suit alleges that the defendants have controlled the North American Hotel company and have exercised this control to practice plaintiffs ask for an accountlnRrncI' for injunctions to restrain transier of nssets or removal of present directors of the plaintiff company. They charge that the Bankers Realty company is Insolvent.

An unusual feature of the litina-tlon is that the directors who hrlni; the suit hold office by grace of Kl-vad's control, his voting power having; elected them. The- havo now turned against him and nsk that he and the Bankers Realty company he restrained ousting them, al leging that they are seeking to preserve the interests of preferred stockholders and that such a move would be for the purpose of perpetuating fraud. WW Not Commtnt "tTho Bankers Realty company has 1100,000 of common stock issued and the North American J200.00O.

Peter Elvad I now living? in Chicago. The North American company.

Says Elvad Control! Both procurement of control Is thkracterlzed as "without considera-tfclr nntfV'a fraud" upon the-moe holders, both common and preferred." Since that time, It Is allegre, Khrnd, who controlled the Bankers Realty company, has dominated and controlled both companies "in the Interests of said conspirators and contrary to the Interests and advantage yf the stockholders of the plaintiff corporation," Most of the alleged fraud consists the plaintiffs nssert, in the sisrning Of contracts whereby the North American company agreed to pay tha Bnnkers Realty company certain sums of money for hotels In various cities.
