(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, July 11. (Special.) The
secretary of stale ut Iowa, under Iowa
luuu, Is collecting annually more than
$100,000 In fees ou filing of articles of In
corporation. It was predicted that when
tho uow law went Into effect Increasing
tho fees and basing them ou tho capital
stock of thu companies Incorporated, there
would be a great decrease In thu number
of corporations doing business In Iowa,
but, on tho contrary, tho number of new
corporations Is Increasing rapidly. Never
before In the history of the state havo thero
been so many new companies. Tho secrc- I
tary of stato has pending beforu the sit- I
promo court a cose which Involves tho
fco business. A company capitalized for a
large sum had expired by limitation of the
charter ond afterwards applied for con
tinuance by filing nn amendment to tho
old charter extending the time. The secre
tary of (.tate took tho ground that a dead
company could not thus resuscitate Itself
and demanded over $600 In fees. The com
pany refused to pay nnd has taken the
coso to the supreme court. The secretary
of state holds that tho reincorporation of a
company or extending Its time is the -untile
as organizing a new company. Tho at
torney general of tho state today ren
dered a dechlon on another phase of the
question. The American Grain Ihirlfler
Conutructltig company, Incorporated at
Pierre, S. D., sought to do business In
Iowa, but refused to pay the $260 fee do
matidod for legalizing It as an Iowa com
pany. Tho attorney general was appealed
to and has decided that outolde. corpora
tions seeking to do business In Iowa as
Iowa companies must pay the samo filing
foe as Iowa companies.. The company Is
capitalized for $250,000, henco tho fco de
manded was $250.
