AN INTERuRsAN THEORY.
Same Capitalists Probably Backing
Both Deals Affecting Des Moines.

Both Deals Affecting Des MONIES.
Special TO Times Republican.
Des Moines. Oct 19.-Des Moines
people who are keeping in touch with
the interurban situation, are coming
to believe that the interurban from
Fort Dodge to Des Moines is backed
by the capitalists that are or have
been dickering to buy the Des Moines
street railway. After the suit had
been started to determine the validity
of the company's franchise, the COM
pany turned up at the city council
meeting, one night with franchise
which was read the first time. A few
days later 1t was discovered that the
reason for the asking of the franchise
was the desire OF the Des Moines peo-
pie to sell out, and that the move
had been engineered with Chicago
capitalists, represented, by Harris, to
sell, except the franchise, and that 1t
would be accessory to have the fran
chise before the sale could be closed
The interurban coming down from
Fort Dodge has no contract for enter
ing the, city, and no means whatever
for entering, unless 1t enters over the
tracks Of the Des Moines street rail-
way, aad has not asked for any fran
chise to build it's own tracks. Yet the
work Of construction is under way
and the company would not be con-
structillg the line unless 1t was salts
fled 1t could get access to the city.

BIG FIGHT is NOW CERTAIN
Wall Street Crowd Is Determined to
Get the Illinois Central Road for
Speculation - Suggestion That Fish
Is About to Back Down, Indignantly
contradioted by His Friends.

Chicago, Oct 10.--J. T. Harahan,
second vice president Of the Illinois
Central railroad, and lifelong friend OF
Stuyvesant Fish. its president, refused
yesterday to commit himself to the
Hartman interests which have been
trying to seze the road for Wall street
purposes of speculation, and asserted
he had not yet made up his mind as to
whom he would vote for at the coming
directors meeting, when u president OF

The suggestion that Mr.. Fish is
about to back down after having won
his brilliant victory over the Wall
street interests as represented by Mr.
Hartman was Indignantly contradict
ed by his friends yesterday. 1t was
declared in high railroad circles that
Mr.. Fish would not only repudiate his
attitude as announced at the stock
holders meeting but that he would
still have some cogent facts to prom
ulgate in regard to the methods Of the
Hartman crowd should the matter be
made one of further controversy.

The Illinois Central which has al

road, will be managed along the same
lines in thu. future, according to the
announcement of persons high in pow

will be no change in policy because Of
the financial hierarchy which has made
an unsuccessful attempt to seize the
lines for purposes Of speculation.
