that is being projected by New York

that is being projected by New York
and Mayfeld capitalists. The Illi-
nois Central never seriously consid-
cred the building of a railroad from
Paducah to Cairo until II became ev-
ident that others were going TO build
the road. II then put its men in the
field and built the road before the
others could get even a start. II
Is believed by many that this is what
the l.. & n. is now going to do be-
tween Mayfield and Cairo.
The Mayfield Mirror says of the
railroad projects affecting Mayfield:
I'VE feel safe in stating that no
man in Mayfield has been notified OF
the genuineness of the intention of
the above cited incorporators of the
l.. & n. railroad officials to spend
500. 900 for the purpose of connect
ing Mayfield, Murray and Cairo with
the l.. & n. system. But we clearly
realize. that since the |. C. has alb
sorbed the Tennessee Central rail-
road and invaded the territory so
long held sacred by the l.. & ~, II
cannot be reckoned as a surprise IL
the community of interests" 'twixt
the l.. & n. and l. c. finds either in
very loving frame of mind. We
welcome the l.. & n. to Mayfield, and
promise. should it graviate towards
us that it shall have its full share
of the good things awaiting distribu-
ton. The spirit is willing and the
bridegroom says "came."

STRANuEK DEPARTED
And With Him Went Watch and
Five Dollars.

Mrs. NJ. A. Byrd. who resides on
Kentucky avenue between Third and

$50 watch and IS in cash to the po-
lice last night.
She had strange man named
Murphy who roomed one night in
her house. Yesterday afternoon he
was in the front room and saw Mrs.
Byrd place some money under the
feather bed. When Mrs. Byrd went
to answer the telephone he went to
the bed, she thinks, took the watch
and money and skipped out.
The police have a good description
of him and are after the fugitive.
He was headed for Memphis and 1t is
presumed left on the o'clock train.

ArOuses Interest.
More Concerning the l.. n Ms Pro-
posed Entrance Into the Cairo
Territory.
SOME OTHER RAILROAD NOTES

New York, Feb. 2s.-All Wall
street is feverlshly watching the bat
tie for control of the great Illinois
Central railroad.
Standard OILS railroad general"
is leading the fight on Stuyvesant
Fish, for many years president of
that road. Fish is fighting desper-
ately. but there is danger that he
will lose.
The war is for revenge because
Fish, an investigator of Mutual Life,
baked at 1.-THE plans of the Standard
Oil party, headed by II. II. Rogers,
to gobble up the insurance concern.
II is claimed by some of Harri-
mans lieutenants that he really now
controls the Illinois Central through
holding a majority of the capital
stock. as well as a majority of the
board of directors.
1t is learned however. that Harri-
man and his associates really hold
but 1000 shares of Illinois Cen
rral, which is one-third of the out
standing capital. The Illinois Cen
trail has always been a Fish family
railroad. and its stock has been very
largely distributed. principally in
the Middle West, among small hold
ers.
Fish's friends declare that his
fighting capacity had been very
much underestimated. w. II.
Truesdale. president OF the Lacka-
wanna railroad. is lined up against
Fish. Though 1t is said that great
influence was brought to bear upon
Thomas f. Ryan. he declined to take
part in the railroad war.
The suggestion is made that II. II.
Rogers interest in the warfare has
something to do with his antagonism
for his arch-enemy. Thos. Lawson,
OF Boston. Lawson. as the holder
OF large number of insurance policy
holders proxies, has made strenuous
efforts to get Stuyvesant Fish to ac-
cept the Craftsmanship of a proxy
holding committee. Fish refused on
a number OF occasions, but he made
II clear that he was favorably dis
posed to Lawson's cause.
II Hartman succeeds in wrestling
control of the Illinois Central from
Fish, the great Union Pacific line
from the Pacific to Omaha would be
carried into Chicago, and a connect
ing link could be given north and
south with Chicago and New Orleans
connecting the Southern Pacific.
The storey that a merger between
the Union Pacific and Illinois Central
with Hartman as president, was
contemplated. was denied some
weeks ago.
The Illinois Central railroad oper-
ates through the states OF Illinois,
Indiana. Wisconsin. Iowa, Minnesota,
South Dakota, Kentucky. Tennessee,
Louisiana. Mississippi and Alabama,
and has total mileage OF 1874.
Its outstanding capital is s95,00O,-
600.
