FISH SENDS FOR DENEEN.
Aeks the Governor to Attend the Illinois
Central Meeting Here This week

ASAu Nut NnOVtTm0E 70 AttCttu OtC hthtuukn
Central Meeting Here This Week.
CHICAGO, July l~a.-stuyvesant Fish. ex-
president Of the Illinois Central Railroad
Company. put out Of ONCE by Y. H.. Harri-
man. has asked Gov. Deneen to attend a
meeting Of the directors Of the road In
New York on next Wednesday. The Gov
ernor. who OK officio is a member OF the
board. has been informed that his services
and his vote will be important to the di-
reotors who opposed the efforts Of Harri-
man TO secure control Of the road.
What Mr.. Fish has In mind 10 not known,
but it is evident he has not given up his
fight against Hartman or his hope Of de-
posing President James T. Harahan, whom
Hartman put in to succeed him. The
Governor Of Illinois ordinarily does not
attend directors meetings unless a decision
OF Importance 10 to be reached. Gov.
Deneen in the fight against Hartman
stood with Fish, and in view Of the litigation
in which the Hartman directors are en-
gagged with the State over the claims for
back compensation can be depended on to
remain against Hartman.
MIR. Fish has asked the Governor to be
ready for a quick trip. the plain inference
being that the ex-president has something
on the fire. There has been considerable
railroad gossip to the effect that an effort
was to be made to retire President Harahan.
and this is one thing which MIR. Fish may
have in mind to try. whether he contem-
plates getting back into the position him
self or not.
1t Is not regarded as reasonable that
the ex-president has been able to convert
a majority Of the board to his way of think
ing. and without that majority an attempt
to disturb Mr.. Harriman's control would
be useless, but Mr.. Fish at any time can
make more trouble by an attack on the
makeup Of the board.

OAK GROVE SEMINARY.
Trustees Add Two Weeks to School
Year-SchooI Increasing Rapidly.

Vassalboro, Me, March 21.-(Spec-
tees Of Oak Grove Seminary was held
today at the school building. COnsiI-
ering the severe weather of yesterday.
a large number were present, especial
" of members from a distance. The
following We're present. George l..
Crosman of Saco, Lindley NJ. Binford
Of Saco, Mr.. and Mrs. Melvin NJ. Bailey
of Portland, A. Herbert Bailey of Win
throp, Charles y. Chace of Swansea,
Mass, Rev. Charles NJ. WOodman of
Portland, Mr.. and Mrs. John ]. Frye
of Portland. Timothy Il. Husscy of
North Berwick, Eli Jepson of Lynn,
Mass, John &. Taylor Of Oakland.
1t was voted that the length of the
school year should be So weeks instead
of SO, as at present; also that after
the expiration Of this year the rate of
board should be $3.50 week, instead
of 49,
The most important action Of the
trustees was the appointment Of q
committee to take into immediate con-
Sideration the matter OF providing
larger accommodations 1Or tne ScuOol,
and to arrange if possible for the erec-
ton of a gymnasium. In the last few
years the school has rapidly increased
in numbers, especially in the boarding
department. The number Of those
coming from outside the town and
State is constantly increaSing-in fact,
this past year il has been necessary
to refuse quite number of applicants.
The need of a suitable gymnasium has
long been felt, and the trustees hope
to be able to supply this need. The
following We're appointed to take these
matters into further and more definite
consideration: John j. Frye, Charles
NJ. Wo0dman, Lindley NJ. Bnford, and
the principal, George l.. Jones. An adj
journed meeting of the trustees will be
held in April, to receive the report of
this special committee.
An interesting feature of the meet
ing was the fact that, owing to the
heavily drifted roads, it was impossible
to meet the trains with SleighS. AS
quite n number of the students at the
school have SnOw-ShOeS, several pairs
We're sent down, and the members of
the committee tried their luck with
this method of locomotion, some with
better success than others 1t was q
novel experience for all. but seemingly
enjoyablc-at. least one that will long
be remembered
