G0ULD-FISH VS.. HARTMAN.
Illinois Central Route to New Orleans
to Be Fought.

TO be fOught.
New ,York.-Wall street was made
cognizant of a realignment of railroad
interests yesterday when the announce
ment was made that Stuyvesant Fish,
until recently president of the Illinois
Central Railroad Company, had cast
his fortunes with the Gould interests
and had been elected a director in the
Missouri Pacific board.
He will Immediately become men,
ber of the executive committee and one
of the chief advisers of George j. Gould
in the development of the Missouri Pa
citic system, especially the low grade
line from St. Louis to New Orleans,
which, under the direction of Mr.. Fish
is expected to develop into formidable
rival of the Illinois Central.
Mr.. Fish's close association with Mr..
Gould is regarded in railroad and finan-
cial circles as a direct reply to the re-
cent rumors that +. H. Hartman had
admitted Mr.. Gould to the community
of railroad interests in the West.
Reports Of peace between the Gould
Hartman interests continue to be cir
culated extensively, nevertheless. The
fact that the bitterness between MessrS.
Fish and Hartman has only been in
tensified by recent events is taken as
an indication that Mr.. Fish's identifi-
cation with the Missouri Pacific prop
erty means that the Gould and Rock
Island interests have formed an often
sive and defensive alliance against the
Harriman- Union Pacific CrOup.
