Chicago Men Doubt Story Of

Special to The Journal.
Chicago, Oct. 26.-Efforts to confirm
or disprove the story that Captain
George j. Grammer is to succeed Presi-
dent Stuyvesant Fish as head of the
Illinois Central road have proved fu-
tile. While it is easy enough to. find
many who doubt the story, none Of
them is in possession of any inf formation
which would enable them to speak au-
thoritatively. ! &z.5t

the logical successor Of Mr.. Fish, re-
nothing Of the proposed change. He
had, however, received mo official In
formation from New York. 81 =s.5s.S.
j. G. Stubs, traffic director Of the
Hartman lines, refused to express an
opinion OH the subject. The same posi-
tion was taken by President S. M. Fle-
ton Of the Alton, who is close per-
sonal friend Of the Union Pacific man.
In the New York Central family all
was confusion. Captain Grammer was
out Of the city, having left Wednes-
day, ostensibly to go to Pittsburg, and
all efforts to communicate with him
his associates into his confidence about
the Illinois Central proposition, and
none Of them knew whether he had re-
ceived an offer. -.
w. C. Brown, senior vice president
Of the New York Central lines, was
loath to believe that Captain Grammer
would leave the system and become
president Of the Illinois Central. -
IT have not seen Captain Grammer
for two weeks,' said Mr.. Brown, "and
do not know whether there is any truth
in the report that it is proposed to
make him president Of the Illinois Cen
trail. MY personal opinion is that there
is no truth in the story.'

CASE OF AFFINITY
Remarkable Attachment Be-

Both Are With the Gentry Aui-

THEY WERE UNRULY.
Not Until Met Did Both Become
Traetable.

Early Tomorrow.
THEY WERE UNRULY.

Is there such thing as affinity be-
tween a monkey and an elephant Is
is possible that way back in the
jungles,' before either ever dreamed of
a civilized land. that two comrades of
the wilderness We're separated only to
be reunited under a circus tent in Amer

story of the monkey and elephant shown
in the accompanying illustration is told.

streets.
Bull" and monkey were purchased
from the same animal importer several
years ago, but arrived at different pc
RODS. The elephant. who is now the
famous paehyderm comedian, Toby.was
the first to become a trooper. He came
very highly recommended as a beast of
rare intelligence, and his new owners
were greatly disappointed shortly after
his arrival by the sad discovery that
Toby was far from being satisfactory
as an actor. He proved to be ill-temper-
ed and no amount of coaxing, hard
work or the usual persuasion could get
him out of the dumps. After trying all
the tricks of old animal trainers and a
lot of new ones to get Toby to perform
like decent elephant should, the Cen
trys were seriously thinking of giving
up the task and sending Toby back to
Network stamped no good, - when Big
Jack, a babboon almost as large as a
man, arrived by express.
Accompanying Jack was a letter from
the same importer which said: This
monkey is the nearest approach to civil
lization which the ape world has pro-
duced"
Being deeply interested in the future
of the new wonder Toby was for a time
forgotten. Big Jack occupied the center
of the stage in winter quarters. Every

In disgust the Gentrys decided to return
both to New York, and arrangements
were made for their departure. When
the express van called for the dead
actors a remarkable scene took place.
Toby began TO cut up something aw
