““This statute was construed in Allen v. Walsh, 25 Minn. 543 , as prescribing an action in the nature of an equitable suit, in which all persons interested in the subject of the action should be joined or properly represented. It was further held in that case, as one of the grounds of the decision, that the remedy so provided by statute was the exclusive remedy for enforcing the statutory liability of stockholders.””
