Their Game.

PITTsBURG, Nov. 5.-An attempt was
made last night to wreck a Pittsburg, Vir-

TOPEKA, Nov. Sin the Santa Fe case
to-day Judge Foster decided not only that
the cumulative system of voting does not
apply to the election of directors for the
Santa Fe, but that the company has a

grant of Incorporation issued by the Ter
ritorial Legislature in 1889. The pro-
tective committee is overwhelmingly de-
feated on every point. 1t is the opinion of
counsel for directors that the whole mat
ter has been finally settled.
The adjourned meeting of the share
holders this afternoon was without result,
although Henry Woolman put the directors
to the trouble of voting dow several series
of resolutions offered in behalf of the pro-
;ectives. TIE first of these commanded
the board of directors to report by what
authority the income bonds of the COM
panY were converted into second mortgage
bonds, and asked how much interest was
paid on these bonds and where the money
came from. This set of resolutions was
simply referred TO the board of directors.
When the election came up the majority
voted for Edward j. Berwin of New York,
James A. Blair of New York, w. i. Bull
of New York. B. p. Cheney of Boston,
Thomas p. Fowler of New York, c. S.
