AFTER SMOKE NUISANCE
Illinois Central Afraid It May Be
Hit Too Hard.
CHICAGO, pril 0,-. "In. view of
the fact that the Illinois Central is
making an honest effort toward elec
trification. I think that the attempt
to get a bill passed such as the Gard
ner bill in the State Senate, is ill
advised and unfair."
This statement was made by J. T.
Harahan, president of the Illinois
Central Railroad, when aiked his
views upon the latest phase of the
crusade against smoke, giving cities
the right to prescribe the railroad mo
tive power within their corporate
limits.
"If Mayor Russe is hack of the
move," he continued "( am very much
surprized, because in all our confer
ences he has seemed to he satisfied
with the position taken by the road
we satisfied him, at least, that we are
making an honest investigation of the
subject."
It was suggested that possibly the
statement by Edward II llarrimail
that electrification was a good deal of
a luxury and that it might cripple the
road financially had influenced the
legislative move
"Possibly so, " replied Mr. Harahan
"Flut I think that a too serious import
was placed upon his statements just
before makiiiK them he had been
given an estimate of the cost 'of elec
trifying the lines and I guess he was
somewhat staggered by it."
One figure which startled Mr-, liar
riman was $8,000,000 which is the
estimate of the cost of electrification
of the passenger tracks alone-
THAT SPECIAL PROVIDENCE
NEW YORK April 9. -Although
she fell through the tics of the' elevat
ed railroad yesterday and landed on
the top of a trolley car forty feet be
low, Ruth Strictlaml, a two year old
child, is little the worse for her ex-1
perience. An examination by phy
sicians showed that she was scarcely
injured. Ruth was shopping in
Brooklyn, accompanied by her aunt,
when she was pushed from the
platform by the crowd and in a mo
ment more disappeared through an

for the Rev. Dr. Warren, explaining
the situation and saying that they
had gone to New York, The pastor
lost no time in dispatching a tele
gram to detectives here and the girls
were stopped when they left their
train at the Grand Central station.
"Hello, Dora," said one of the de
tectives. "We don't know you," an
swered one of the girls and they
started to brush past the officer.
"But" said the detectives, "we know
you," and they called them by name,
The girls only had $2.50 between
them. They will go home today.
