AT LEAST THE TURKS ARE

The dogs are great feature OF Con-
stantinople, and, indeed, OF all TURKISH
towns. They lie about in amiable heaps

" treated by the Turks, though OCCASION
ally they suffer at the hands OF Greeks
or Armenians. One constantly sees a
slumberlng group, over which the passers-
ny carefully step. monopolizing the very
centre OF a busy, crowded street. Each
road has its own pack, which protests We

Some OF the dogs are handsome. and

Hartman Succeeds In Winning Con-
troll of illinois Central.
New York, Nov. 6.-Backed by the
power Of the Standard OIL group of
capitalists and supported by the repre-
sentatlves of the Belmont, Aston and
Vanderbilt holdings in the board Of di-
rectors, Edward FL. Hartman has sue
ceeded at last, after long fight, in
wrestling control Of the Illinois Central
railroad from Stuyvesant Fish, who
has been its president for almost TWEEN
ty years.
One Of Harriman's associates said
the Hartman party was in absolute
control, both as to a majority of d.
rectors and as to stock holdings. but it
had not been decided whether it would
be good policy to depose Fish at once.
There were rumors in the financial
district that Fish would resign when
he found Hartman controlled a ma
jority of the directorate. 1t was said
by friends Of Fish that he would fight
to the last moment to prevent the
absorption of the Illinois Central by
Hartman and his Union Pacific rail-
road, which Fish believes would be
detrimental to the interests Of the
Illinois Central stockholders.
Friends Of Hartman said he was
moved by no personal animosity to-
ward President Fish, but entirely By
the best interests Of the stockholders
OF both the Illinois Central and Union
Pacific. Hartman is ambitious to con-
troll transcontlnental railroad

NEWS OF THE WEEK.

Herbert L. Brldgman Of Brooklyn,
secretary of the Peary Arctic club, re-
cefved advices from Commander Rob
eft e. Peary showing that the explorer
has failed reach the north pole, but
that he has made the farthest record
north, 81 degrees g minutes. He has
gone within about 203 miles OF the
pole. The intrepid explorer has pene-
trated about thirty-fiye miles nearer
to the pole than the italian Duke Of
Abruzzi, who held the former record
of SO degrees "a minutes north. Peary's
failure to reach thespole Is attributed
by him to gales which disrupted the
ice, destroyed his caches of food and
cut off his communications. He gives
much of the credit for the partial sue
cess of his expedition to his specially
constructed ship, the Roosevelt. He is
now on his way home and will prob
ably try again to reach the pole. 2
