They Hold Balance of Power in
Illinois Central
Contest.
HAVE WHIPPED HIM ONCE
Fih Sure of All Dutch Proxies and
May Get All Other Europeans,
llarrlman Driven From
Kansas City Southern.
NEW YORK. Oct. 7. (Special.) Upon
the votes of hundreds of small Dutch
Investors may depend the outcome of
one of the (treatest battles In the cam
paign the many enemies of H H. Har
rlman are waging to depose him from
the dictatorship of the railroads covering
onc-tlilrd of the area of the United
States. In the contest of Stuyvesant
Fish against Mr. Harrlman for control
of the Illinois Central Kallroad the
. Dutch have sent to Mr. Fish, tt was
learned today, proxies for 40,000 shares
of stock.
About 20 per cent of Illinois Central
stock Is held in Kurope, the greater part
of It In Holland, and. If Mr. Fish gets
all the European stock, those shares
probably will swing the railway elec
tion In his favor. With the Dutch
shareholders actively at work for
Mr. Fish. as was disclosed to
day, he has a good chance to get all
the European proxies. It Is also learned
that New Orleans and Galveston holders
are swinging to the Fish side.
Parallel Case Quoted.'
It Is an Interesting coincidence that
the position of the Illinois Central Is
similar, in one Important respect at
least, to that of the Kansas City South
ern a few years ago. Mr. Harrlman took
hold of the Kansas City Southern In MOO
for the announced purpose of rehabili
tating the property. The stockholders
were overjoyed to get a man of his abil
ity to take charge of the road and, when
he told them he would serve without pay,
their delight was unbounded. For two
years Mr. Harrlman did serve as chair
man of the board without pay. then de
cided he was entitled to a salary of J25.O0O
a year, but made the salary retroactive
to cover the two years during which he
had drawn no pay.
It is even charged, and Mr. llarrlman
never has denied the accusation, that,
when he decided In 1903 he should have
a salary, he called a meeting; at which
there wore present only Otto H. Kahn,
his bnnker. and himself, and voted him
self not only that year's salary, but two
years' back pay, making 175,000 In all.
Subsequently, It Is true, the directors
ratitled his action. All the directors were
his friends.
Had Wrecked the Road.
rosslbly the Dutch stockholders would
not have objected to Mr. Harirman vot
ing himself g. sa'Ary If he had built up
the road. buV hept going from bad to
worse. ArticP- appeared In- Dutch news
papers containing attacks upon Mr. Har
rlman far more hitter than anytiung
rver printed In this country. The Dutch
sent a party of engineers to examine the
property and their report Bhowed It was
run down to an extent the shareholders
considered almost criminal. Bridges and
other parts of the property upon which
the safety of passengers depended were
in such bad condition that "the railway
men were amaxed at the facts disclosed.
Under the leadership of Herman
Rtlcken the Dutch stockholders began
a fight to oust Mr. Harrlman. They
engaged Sanuiel Untermler as counsel
and made things so hot for Mr. Harrl
man that at the last moment he with
drew from the contest. Under Dutch
control the road has prospered.
MAKE RAILROAD TRAVEL SAFE
Roosevelt AVill Vrgo New Reform
and Give Horrible Examples.
WASHINGTON", Oct 7. (Special.) It is
reported that one of the important pieces
of new legislation along progressive lines
which President Roosevelt will urge In
Ms forthcoming message to Congress will
be a measure giving the Interstate Com
merce Commission power to deal with
the physical construction of railroads to
t he extent of assuring safe roadbeds,
flawless trackage und generally to look
after conditions that Involve the lives and
llmhs of passengers.
The necessity for the conferring of
some such powers on li.e Fe'deral au
thority In connection with the regulation
of Interstate commerce appeared to mem
bers of the Commission several months
ago, when some sensational testimony
was given by steel manufacturers rela
tive to the inferior quality of rails pur
chased by certain railroads, which run the
fastest of fast passenger trains over
their lines. Since then a quiet Investiga
tion has been conducted. Photographs
have been taken of portions of the track
of the big roads In the West, which
show conditions calculated to excite agi
tation for reform.
One photograph, for example, shows
where a man has thrust his cane Into a
rotten tie with as much ease as if the
tie was made of paper. The scenes de
picted in the Commission's art gallery
are tracks upon which the very fastest
trains are run every hour In the day.
Possibly the photographs may be repro
duced and made yxrt of the Commission's
annual report and the road held up as a
horrible example.
ANOTHER WAIL FROM RIPLEY
fcnnta Fe Stops Improvements Till
Attacks on Railroads Cease.
CHICAGO. Oct. 7. (Special.) In the
twelfth annual report of the Santa Fe
Road, which was made public today,
President E. P. Ripley makes an official
announcement that all extensions and
new work have been suspended until pub
lic confidence In the railroads shall have
been restored.
Mr. Ripley also declares that it will be
Impossible for the railroads of the coun
try to obtain the hundreds of millions of
dollars which they must expend, if they
keep pace with growing demands for
transportation, unless the public begins
soon to realise that it has made a mis
take in vigorously attacking the rail
roads. To show that railroad investments have
not proved as fruitful as others. Mr. Rip
ley states that during 1907. the most pros
perous year in the history of the com
pany, the net earnings averaged only 4.5
per rent upon the entire capitalization,
"which is believed not to exceed the cost
of reproducing the company's properties
at the present time." He proceeds:
"Interest and dividend payments of the
year averuged less than 4.8 per cent on
the bonds and stocks and for the last ten
years the net earnings have averaged less
than 4.SJ per cent on the entire capitali
zation and the average dividend and In
terest payments less than 3.71 per cent,
lu order even to accomplish these results.
HARR MAN
it was necessary for the company to ex
pend for improvements, additional equip
ment and new construction during the
last ten years a total of JllO.OOO.OOO. Dur
ing the same period the total sum paid
to stockholders was less than $75,000,000.
AY ALL STREET- STOPS WORK
Stringency of Money Market. Hin
ders Colorado Extension.
DENVER, Colo., Oct. 7. (Special.)
There are to be no important extensions
by the Colorado railroads during the com
ing year on account of tightness in the
money market in Wall street. Several
big enterprises which have been under
contemplation will not be pushed through
to completion at this time and none of
the companies will attempt to market its
securities In Wall street.
The Colorado & Southern has completed
its surveys, made estimates of cost and
figured out all of the details for building
a 300-mile extension on Its northern lines
from Orin Junction in Wyoming to the
Canadian border but the plans are being
held in abeyance awaiting the recovery
of the depressed money market.
The Denver & Rio Grande will not do
any broad guaglng. the coming year and
will postpone the double tracking of its
line from Denver to Pueblo as had been
planned.
The enterprises which do not have to
depend upon Wall street for their finances
will probably be the only ones undertaken.
The Denver, Laramie & Northern, which
is to be constructed by the people who
subscribe for stock in small blocks, will
not be interfered with as it has not gone
to Wall street for assistance. The Moffat
Road will probably be continued without
interruption.
TWO
MORE
INDICTMENTS
Jury Returns Charges Against
Southern Pacific, Paclfio Mall.
SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 7. The United
States grand Jury today presented two
supplementary indictments, one against
the Southern Pacific Company, and the
other against the Pacific Mail Steam
ship Company, charging them with
violations of the interstate commerce
law. Each indictment contains eight
counts, which relate to shipments of
matting from Kobe, Japan, to various
points in the United States at rates
lower than those mentioned in the
schedule furnished the Interstate Com
merce Commission.
The Southern Paclfio and the Pacific
Mail Steamship Company were allowed
until October 21 to plead to the former
indictments charging them with having
violated the Interstate commerce laws
by carrying consignments of matting
and mats at lower rates than in the
schedule furnished to the Interstate
Commerce Commission.
BUYER PAID THE FREIGHT
Lime and Cement Company's New
Scheme for Dodging Law.
LOS ANGELES, Cel., Oct. 7. Donald
Fragner, secretary of the Grand Canyon
Lime & Cement Company, whose dealings
with the Santa Fe Railroad are allega
tions in the trial of the railroad on a
charge of rebating in the Federal court,
was on the witness stand today. Mr.
Fragner was able to point out that in
every instance carloads of lime and
cement were shipped' to purchasers f. o.
b. at the point- of delivery. Then, ac
cording to the witness, the purchasers
paid the freight and sent the bill to the
cement company, when they were credited
with the amount of the freight bill.
It Is the Government's contention that
the cement company asked and ijecelved
a rebate on all these shipments, alleging
loss of cement on the road, its statements
of the lass being accepted without ques
tion by the railroad company, although
allowing the purchasers to pay the full
charge of freight.
Great NorthernwExtra Dividend.
NEW YORK, Oct. 7. Announce
ment of an extra dividend of 14 per
cent by the Great Northern Railway
Company was made today. It was an
nounced that the funds for the dividend
are derived from the Lake Superior
Company, and come not from the ore
lands leased to the United States Steel
Corporation, but from other of its hold
ings, such as coal lands and express
companies.

cer declared that Felice had tried to
carry the woman away right in front of
the officers, but had been prevented.
The wife declared that Felice is her
affinity and said she did not love her
husband. The court asseeeed a fine of
ISO and costs against the dark-skinned
Lochinvar on the disorderly conduct
charge.,
DISEASE IS SPREADING
Tacoma Physicians Handicapped
Without City Bacteriologist.
TACChviA. Wash., Oct. 7. (Special.)
Diphtheria is said by the physicians to
be spreading since the Council refused to
nav a salary to retain a Dacterloiogist.
The situation is declared to be most
serious and a menace to the public
health.
Dr. Quevll says that diphtheria was
pretty well stamped out before Dr. Bebb,
the bacteriologist, was allowed to go.
Since then numerous cases have appeared
and the contagion is spreading. Dr.
Quevll has six cases.
Dr. Green, the city health officer. Is
credited with doing all he can under the
circumstances, but he is handicapped
without the services of a regular public
bacteriologist.

Customs Service Claims Dues on
Cargo Arriving at Bremerton,
but Ship Claims hnmunily.
Cargo Can't Be Seized.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 7. A conference
was held at the Navy Department to
day by Secretary Metcalf, Commissioner
of Navigation Chamberlain and the So
licitor of the Department of Commerce
and Labor, regarding the status of
the British tramp steamer Netherlee.
which took a cargo of coal for the
Navy Department to the Bremerton
Navy-yard and was held up there for
tonnage, dues and light taxes. Advices
were that the vessel is discharging her
cargo. A thorough search was made
of the records today to ascertain
whether any immunity from these
charges had been promised to the
owners or agents of the vessel, Mr.
Metcalf declaring that, so far as he
was aware, such promise had not been
made.
The contention of the Naval offi
cials is that the old law Imposing ton
nage and light dues was supersceded
by the statute which forfeits to the
Government cargoes carried by for
eign vessels In the American coastwise
trade in violation of the law. The
Attorney-General in his recent opinion
replied in the negative, when asked by
Mr. Metcalf whether the prohibition
contained in the law extended to mer
chandise which constitutes "property
owned by the Government."
This being the caee, and the cargo
of the vessel belonging to the Navy,
the officials of the letter Department
fall to see any reason for the detention
of the vessel. A dozen or more other
foreign vessels chartered by the Equip
ment Bureau to carry coal to the Pa
cific Coast will be affected by the final
disposition of the present case.
Pays Duty on Government Coal..
.PORT TOWSTSEND. Wash., Oct. 7.
The sum of 3274f, customs duties was
paid under protest by the British
steamship Netherlee on her arrival
with a cargo of coal from the Atlantic
Coast. The consignment is the first of
a series of coal shipments to arrive
from the East for the United States
Navy-yard at Bremerton, to be used to
supply vessels of the United States
Navy with fuel and prevent any re
occurrence of the coal famine of last
Winter. On the Netherlee's arrival
Captain Ranklne, -believing that he
would pass in duty free, was thunder
struck when the customs officials In
formed him that customs charges
amounting to $2746 must be paid be
fore he could proceed. He argued that
his cargo belonged to the United States
Government, but the anomaly was al
lowed to stand and the duty was
paid under protest.

NO DANGZR OF COLLISION
Flttsburgers Sa. Suspension of
Hartweg's Pilot' Unjust.
PITTSBURG. Pa., Oct. 7. The mem
bers of the Pittsburg delegation to the
Deep-Waterways Convention at Memphis
do not agree with President Roosevelt
that during the trip to Memphis there
was any danger of collision between the
steamboat Mississippi, on which the
Presidential party was riding, and the
Fred Hartweg, on which was the Pitts
burg delegation. They believe an Injus
tice was done Pilot Nichols, of the Hart
weg, whose license was suspended for
six months on order from the Presi
dent. The pilot had a hearing in Mem
phis behind closed doors.
Captain John Moren, who was on the
Mississippi, says he was close to the
President when the Hartweg came near,
and at no time were the steamers closer
than 100 feet, and there was not the
slightest danger of collision.
'I was on the Hartweg," said Captain
W. B. Rodgers, "and I never saw a fleet
handled better. There wis no accident
and at no time was there the least dan
ger of any accident or collision."

with that at Manila. The best previous
record for distance by wireless was 4000
miles between Savannah, Ga., and a war

SEEK TO ESCAPE TRIAL
Insurance Men Move to Dismiss, but
Delay Is Not Granted.
NEW YORK, Oct. 7. Efforts of counsel
for five insurance officials, indicted as
the result of ths legislative Insurance in
vestigation to secure further uelay of

ance Company; George W. Perkins and'
Charles S. Falrchild, formerly of the

Motions were made by attorneys for
the defendants asking that the indict
ments against their clients be dismissed.

prepared to argue such motions and
asked that a further delay of two or
three weeks be granted In which to pre
pare their cases.
Mr. Jerome insisted that the motions
should be argued by next Monday. He
said that the attorneys had had from
three to four months in which to prepare
their arguments and every consideration
had been shown them. He said the mo
tions practically call for the dismissal of
the indictments on the ground that they
were not found in accordance with pro
cedure, or that they were found on il
legal evidence.

that he tie permitted to answer oral ar
guments In brief form.

former vice-president of the New York
Life, was called, a plea of not guilty
which had been entered was withdrawn.
