OF the last and slowest had been a
tremendous one. Sparing neither
themselves nor their horses, they had
raced down the perilous way. Some
OF them had gone over the cliffs to in
slant destruction; others had been
heavily thrown by the stumbling
horses. Some of the horses had given
out under the awful gallop and had
fallen exhausted, but when the riders
were unhurt they had joined the foot

that more people are killed every

Mr.. Stanley has very little hope

Hartman IL Now Said to BE the
Greatest Railway Magnate I'm
the Whole World.
LATE DEAL ABOUT CONFIRMED

Chicago, H., Feb. Edward II.
Hartman, with many millions of
dollars at his command, has taken
in the Illinois Central railroad with
its subsidiary lines. Hereafter the
Hartman, Union Pacific and other
interests are in control of approxi=
mately 22,276 miles of railroad
Ines with terminal stations on both
coasts OF the United States and in
many cities between the Pacific and
the Gulf of Mexico. II has been an
open secret that the Hartman
clique has been picking up Illinois
Central stock in the market for
months. At the present time it is
said to own at least 100000 shares,
the par value of which is $4,000
600.
While 1t is admitted in high finan-
clal circles that the deal is all but
completed. John T. Harahan, sec
ond vice-presldent in charge OF the
operating department OF the Illinois
Central system. said that he had not
been advised of the transaction.
IF the merger has been COM
pleted. as rumored. then the place
to get the facts is in the Office OF
Stuyyesant Fish. president of our
company" said Mr.. Harahan. "for
there Is no reason why we should
know anything about the subject, at
present at least"
With the close of the Illinois
Central merger with the Union Pa
clfc system. Hartman steps to the
front as the greatest railway mag
nate in the world. AS Chicago is
the terminal of the Illinois Central,
the roads tributary to the main line
affected by the merger are more or
less dependent upon Chicago for \
large share of business. These
lines. with their mileage, are Blue
Island. $50; Conton. Aberdeen and
Nashville. $500; Chicago. st. Louis
and New Orleans. 1.277S1; Du-
buque and Sioux City, 757.52;
Peoria. Decatur and Mattoon.
1876: South Chicago. 4.76; Peo-
ria and Pekln Union (trackage
rights, 1897. and Eastern Illinois

Therefore the total mileage of
the Illinois Central system, inelud-
ing the "Yazoo" road. is 5,549.1S.

Louisville, KY, Feb. THE Lou
isville union labor delegates who
withdrew from the convention of the
Kentucky State Federation of La
Dor, which was held in Covington

that they have been upheld in their
course to the extent of a victory.
The decision of Edgar Perkins,
the international organizer, who
was appointed arbiter of the differ
ences between the Louisville dele
gates and President James d. Wood
and the other members of the state
federation, was received in Louis
Vile by John Young, president Of
the Louisville Federation of Labor,
and who, as secretary and treasurer
of the State Federation of Labor,
left the convention with funds and
records belonging to the federation.
After the Louisville delegates
withdrew from the convention, Jas.
d. Wood was reelected president,
and other officers were elected. John
W. Naples, of Covington, was elect
ed secretary and treasurer, and the
headquarters of the state federation
were changed from Louisville to
Covington by order of the executive
committee. The Louisville dele
gates appealed to Samuel Gompers,
president of the American Fedora
ton Of Labor, asking that some one
be appointed to investigate and pass
on the validity of the proceedings in
'the state convention.
In the meantime, John Young
continued to keep the headquarters
of the state federation open in this
city.
The convention of the State Fed
Grafton of Labor was adjourned at
Covington to meet December G,
1907. in Henderson. In his decis-

convention, and he asks for another
convention to meet in Louisville De-
cember G, 1906. He demands that
the executive committee call this
convention and that they shall notify
President Gompers of the call, so
that he can designate a person out
side of Kentucky to preside over the
deliberations of the body. The state
federation must pay the expenses of
this presiding officer. Mr.. Perkins
also says that Mr.. Young must sur
render the belongings of the state
federation which he now has in his
possession. but he must be reim-
bursed for money expended for rent
pending the investigation.
