New York, N. ~ Nov. Is. Stuy- n
vesant Fish has addressed letter ito \
the stockholders Of the Illinois Cen
trail railway regarding the adjourned
meeting set for Dec. is. After res
viewing the contest at the last meet
! ing, Mr.. Fish says in part:
''It is significant that up to this
date no effort has been made by the
Union Pacific to dissolvce the injnnc-
ton as to its holding or that of the
railway securities company although
the Mutual Life Insurance company,
| with a relative unimp ortant holding
| of only fifty-fYe hundred shares, has
asked osbe relieved of restraint. This
mention does not involve the main
issue, as the case of the Mutual Life
| turns upon fundamentally different
4 questions of law and of fact from
| those involved in the cases of the
