of 1892-99, and. which are essential

FISH CHARGES
CORRUPTION
(By Leased Wire to The Times.)
New York, Sept. 21. In a state
ment sent to the stockholders of the
Illinois Central Railroad, Stuyvesaut
Fish makes the direct charge that
tho reports of tlte road have been
doctored, and sets forth figures to
prove his accusation. Here is what.
Mr. Fish has to say :
"It-, appeals 'from the annual re
port of the Illinois Central Company
for the year ending June r.0, 1907,
that there was an extraordinary in
crease in the net receipts of the cor
poration during the last four months
which increase is wholly inexplica
ble and obviously inconsistent with
the fac.t3 upon any proper accounting
and clearly made for the purpose of
producing a favorable hut. fictitious
showing. . . . v,
"The first third of the year shewed
nn. Increase; In net receipts of $l!(ifi,
070 then cnine the change in the
presidency and in the next third of
the year the net receipts decrease,
by f 572.7SG. -
"Finally, in the last four months,
they were suddenly increased by
1.2::!,SX!, of which increase $604,
751 is reported as made in the sin
gle .'.'month' of June. This palpable
misstatement, was further empha
sized by he fact that although neither
the mileage nor the operating condi
tions had changed in the slightest,
degree, the succeeding month of July
showed a falling off of $:!5,098 in
net revenue as against the reported
gain of $('.04,751 in June;"
Mr.' Fish declares that the Vnion
Pacific Railroad is fighting to get
control of the Illinois Central. This
fight, he says, is being waged by E.
II. Harrlman.
In his charge ho says:
"How important the control of
the Illinois Central by the Union Pa
cific seemed to those interested may
be understood when I say that at the
next directors' meeting, Mr. Robert
Walton Goeiet, a Union Pacific di
rector and also a director of your
company, came expressly from Eu
rope to New York at Mr. Harrlman's
behest to join with others in unseat
ing me as president of the Illinois
Central, which done,, ho returned to
Europe the following day.

. Montgomery, Ala., fiept. ' ' 24. There
has been much ncrld talk of the ac
tion of the Louisville & Nashville gi--ing
coupons In the Fnle of tickets at
tlirce cents. There is not any 'con
cession on the part of the road, an
officer says, but simply a protection
against fraudulent claims. The -.coupon
will represent the. claim of any passen
ger paying three cents, if in the end,
the act making tho fare two and a
half cents, is held to be good. With
out the coupon the person who rides
cannot get his money back, while
with It, bo can.
There Is much talk of the action
of the Montgomery freight bureau In
advising shippers to route freight over

and thus deprive those not yet ac
cepting the rates of business.

search by federal accountants in the
Broadway headquarters of the trust
have failed to bring a trace of them.
Now, It is hinted by the Standard of
ficials, that perhaps they are gone.
In order to show the present
Standard Oil Company has the same
old membership which the supreme
court of Ohio ordered dissolved in
1892, masquerading under, a new
face, Inquisitor Kellogg must have
the books. They are vital to tho
government's case. It was remarked
clearly enough today that Jail terms
were waiting for some well-known oil
men if the books were not produced.
"We shall get those books," Mr.
Kellogg said. "We mean to have
them."

Charges Hearing is Used For
IN RALEIGH NEXT WEEK
AH t!ie State's Witnesses Will P.e
Examined in Tills City In Con
ference This Afternoon in Regard
to Method to He Pursued in Ex
Wniining Hooks.
(By Leased Wire to The Times.)
Washington, Sept. 24. By - iati
mating that the Southern Railway
rate tangle in North Carolina is to
lie ''tried politically" and is being
used, to "boom some -personal inter
ests there," A. p. Thorn, genera!
counsel of the Southern, created a
sensation today in the hearing on
the. case here.
During the argument about how
tho state shall secure access to the
Southern's books, Mr. Thoin declared
with great emphasis: .'''.' ?,
"To say that 'this road's books are
public, property is to show an entire
misconception of the true state; of
affairs. These hooks are no more
public property than are the books
of a merchant by due process of law.
If wo can hasten and aid to 'secure'
the. equities in -tills case, we are only
too glad to do so by the use of our
hooks. '. . -
"But if this case is to be tried po
litically, if it is to be used to boom
somebody's iijerests in the state, we
have "a right to try every means pos
sible to prevent such a course."
Hearing to Be Resumed in Raleigh
Next Week.
This afternoon, it is thought, some
agreement will be reached on . the
method to be pursued by the state's
expert accountant in securing the
evidence from the books desired by
the state. When an adjournment is
taken,- It will ho to moet in Raleigh,
N. C, the first part of next week
when the state will submit further
evidence.

seeking the proxies. - Indications are
that, the llarriiiian crowd aro scour

and are sparing no expense to attain
that end.
This California end of the bitter

tral, may, in the opinion of local
bankers, and railroad, officials famil
iar with the Harrlman quest for
proxies out herei indicate one of two
things. In their opinion it may mean
that the Harriman people are in

He Granted the Immunity Bath to

The Ordered a Seclal Grand
Jury to Indict President of Stand
ard Oil t Jo. of Indiana It is lle
iieved He Intends to Prosecute
Him for Contempt.
(Hy Leased Wire to The Times.)
Chicago, Ills., Sept. 24. A startling
sensation was sprung today by Judge
Laiidis in granting an expected im
munity bath to the Chicago Alton
Knilroad when he ordered a special
grand Jury to summon President
James A." Moffett of the Standard Oil
Company of Indiana before them with
the -.apparent anticipation of prosecut
ing him for contempt of court.
President 'Moffett is believed by
Judge Lnndis to be responsible for the
publication of a pamphlet criticising
Lnndis 'for the heavy fine imposed on
the Standard Oil company and for
impugning the motives of the Jurist.
A second sensation was sprung when
tlte court, in dismissing the rebating
charges against the 'Alton, asserted
that the penitentiary Is filled with
men -who-"have done nothing more nor
less than have the officers of this com
pany. In his censure of the Alton Rail
road officials. Judge Landis gave
reason for belief that he was reluct
ant to dismiss tho charges.
. "Today there are many men In
the penitentiary, serving sentences
for making false entries such as this
railroad company compel its agents
to make," said Judge Iindis.
"That seemed to me to be of such
a character 'and such a Btate, of
criminality that the order for your
appearance was entered. Then It
developed that previous to this or
der some one representing the gov
ernment had made some agreement
with the prosecution by which the
ailroad company would be exempt
from prosecution, the purpose being
to find out by whom, when and un
der what, conditions, the published
rates ; were reduced,"
Tlte court then made clear the
fact that it was at the request of tho
attorney general that the motion of
District Attorney Sims was granted
for the dismissal of the rebating
charg.'s.
