FINAL STRUGGLE
 BY FISH'S ENEMIES
ATTORNEYS WILL APPEAR IN JUDGE BALLS COURT TO ASK DATE FOR HEARING THE IN JUNCTION.

Chicago, December 7.-(Special)-E. H. Hartman Monday morning will begin the court struggle for possession of the llli- nois Central railroad. The czar of rail- ways and his opponent, Stuyvesant Fish, through their attorneys, will appear pe- fore Judge Farlin Ball, and Hartman 5 attorney, Ralph M. Shaw, will ask the court to set the earliest possible date to hear arguments on the injunction by which Fish baked Harriman's coup in the Illinois Central election by prevent ing Hartman from voting the 2S1 ,231 shares of stock of the Illinois Central which is held by the Union Pacific rail- road. The control of the Illinois Gen. tral depends upon the shares which the court temporarily restrained Hartman from voting. Without them, Hartman apparently cannot control the election of the Illinois Central and if they are voted for Hartman, Fish has not enough votes to overcome them.
 The decision to fight the injunction was reached today and arrangements were made between Henry ". Lehman, Fish's Chicago attorney and Hartman S attorneys with the court whereby it is believed Wednesday will be set for the hearing of the motion of the Hartman forces to dissolve the injunction.
 The delayed action of the Hartman forces, coming as it does, with the ad- journed meeting so near-December 1S- indicates that both sides are in despar of finding enough proxies to control and that Hartman is in desperate need of the Union Pacific forces to overcome big gains made by Fish during the in- terim

INVESTIGATING DEATH. Some Peculiar Circumstances Cause Womans Relatives To Act.

Memphis, December 7.-Rigid inves- tigation of all circumstances leading to the death, October 8, of Mrs. Lulu Fisher, wife of Dr. J. B. Fisher, is be- ing made by Earl Brewer, unsuccessful candidate for the democratic nomina- ton for governor of Mississippi, and the grand jury at the direction of At torney General Walsh has taken up the case.
 Mrs. Fisher died October 8, follow ing an alleged injury she is reported to have received on a street car the Sun day evening previous. Two accident insurance policies. one for $15OOO and the other for $10,OO0, were paid to the husband. The street car company re- gently reported they had no accident on the date mentioned and this, with statements of the dead woman's rela- tives in Clarksdale, Miss, that she had not lived happily with her husband and had once been separated from him started the investigation.

 MOVEMENT AGAINST NEGROES.
Killing of Policeman Causes Special
 Meeting of Grand Jury.

Atlanta, December Especial "A special meeting of the grand jury was called today to meet next Monday to take action on the murder of Patrol man James A. Manier. by the negro An drew Johnson alias Black Sport" who is now in the county jail. The criminal court will be in session next week and the case will be at once taken up.
 If convicted and sentenced the negro may be legally hanged at the expiration of 20 days after sentence. Any fear of race trouble has been calmed by this prompt action and it is source of pride among the negro population that 1t was a negro who captured Johnson and turned him over to the officers.
 There is a move on foot, however, to close all the negro saloons at once as 1t is feared some of the vicious negroes, realizing that prohibition will be in force after January 1. will make the most of the short time remaining. in drunken debauchery and cause serious trouble.

BRYAN DELIVERS
 SPEECH AT OMAHA
NEBRASkAN IS THE RECIPIENT OF DISTINGUISHED HoNoRs AT THE HANDS OF DEMOCRATIC LEADERS,.

Omaha, Neb., December 7.-William J. Bryan was the chief guest at "dol- lar dinner' given at the Auditorium to- night by the Dahlmann Democratic club, at which about 1900 persons were present. Following the banquet the galleries were thrown open to the pub lie and about 5000 persons availed themselves of the opportunity to hear the speeches of the evening.
 The reception accorded the dis tinguished Nebraskan was one of the greatest he ever received in Omaha.
 The gathering was representative of Omaha s. democracy, and when Mr. Bry- an appared he was greeted with ap- plause which lasted several minutes. He spoke of the spirit of hope that pervaded the party, and said that the democratic party would enter into the next campaign with an army of volun- teers and that the volunteers were lighting because their hearts were in the work and that they would be more than a match for any troops that migh t be marshalled for the defense of mo- nopolists and special privileges.
 References had been made during the evening to Mr. Bryan's candidacy for the democratic nomination, and to this suggestion the speaker gave little encoura cement, except to state that his position remained the same as in dicated in the pronunciamento given out by him some time ago. He reit- erated that his position was unchanged and that his acceptance of the nomi- nation would be forthcoming if he was
