RAILROAD NOTES
Fish Active in 1. G..

The immediate purpose which
Stuyvesant Fish has in reopenng his
contest with f. n. Hartman for
control OF the Illinois Central rail-
road is TO secure the election OF 4
friendly director for the vacancy on
the board caused by the death OF
John c. yelling, says Chicago papers.
1t is for this purpose that the meet
ing Of directors in New York on
Wednesday has been called. u was
TO have been held last Wednesday.
but was postponed a week. and may
be postponed again.
It is not known who Mr.. Fish S
candidate is, but seemingly he be
ieves he has a chance to place him,
particularly if the Hartman mem
bers Of the board are not all lu al
tendance Mr.. yelling was counted
on 10 stand with Mr. Fish. ana when
he was unable on account of the liz
ness preceding his death to be pres
ent at the meeting which elected ].
IT. Harahan president, and when
John Jacob Aston Joined Mr. Harri-
man, Mr.. Fish had only -four votes
against eight.
Seemingly Mr.. Fish feels that he
.still has reason to count on the
friendship Of Mr.. Aston, ana further
more, has the right to have he direc-
tor elected 10 fill the vacancy as
friendly towards his as was Mr. Well
ing.
with this director secured. Mr..
Fish would have a healthy minority
on the board. and with Mr.. Astor. a
dangerous one. lacking only one vote
sufficient to control again and ready
TO take advantage OF any event tina;
weakened Mr.. Harriman's supremacy
In the Illinois Central.
He has taken sufficient interest n
the affair TO supplement the formal
notices Of the meeting with per
sonal request to the directors friend
ly to him to be present al the meet
ing
This activity is taken to indicate
thar Mr.. Fish proposes 90 carry the
issue with Mr. Hartman into the am
.nual meeting of the stockholders IN
Chicago and to make ties,
of strength with him again.

SEEK MEN WHO
GOT DYNAMITE

Detectives of the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad Company were in this city
to-day trying to learn who bought the
dynamite with which an attempt was
made to blow up the railroad bridge
at Darby on Monday morning.
Captain Gross. of the railroad detec-
tives. intimates that the arrest of one
or more persons may be expected
either to-day or tomorrow.
AS soon as several Of the sticks Of
dynamite were found not exploded it
seemed to the detectives that it would
be an easy matter to get hold of the
perpetrators. as they knew the make
of the dynamite. and Immediately
went to Wilmington where it was pur-
chased. to learn the identity of the
buvers. Just how well they succeed
ed Captain Gross refused to say, but
the intimation that he is going TO
make an arrest or two would seem tn
argue that he found out something.

Royal Italian Marine Band which is play
ing at Brandywlne Springs Park. was
arrested last night on a writ and up to
early This afternoon he had not been re-
leased from the police station Gatt was

ing room. lie changed his band uniform

ing the sheriff to the police station.

satisfaciondum, which is said to be the
second such writ issued out of Super or
Court since 1851 The writ was taken out
at the instance Of John A. Davis and Dom
mick r. Davis, as administrators Of the
estate OF James Davis now deceased.
They alleee that their father had a judg
ment of $500 against Gatu in Superior
Court, and that Gatu has never satisfied
the judgment. They now ask that he
makes good the amount Of the judgment
Legal Points involved.
There are some interesting legal ques-
tions involved in the arrest Of Gatu 1t
being contended by the Davses that Gatti
must be detained until he makes good tho
amount of the judgment, and cannot be
admitted to bail J. Frank Ball and James
Salisbury represent the Davlses. Gatti

though Robert H. Richards had been in
consultation with him. and Mrs Gatti was
hunting for John L. Lynn % engage

Gatti's arrest at this time is the result
OF an old suit entered against him three
years ago by Michael Palese. Davis fur
nlshed $500 bail for Gath then. but the
bail was forfeited and Davis took judg-
ment against Gatu. Now DAVIS sons seek
to recover the amount of the judgment.
