Statement Declared Untrue.

THE statement in the circular letter is
sued by Mr.. Fish to the stockholders and
published today that the Illinois Central
accounts have been padded oT in any way
manipulated IS absolutely untrue He
knows that there has been no change
whatever in the relations of the Illinois
Central with the Union Pacific and South
ern Pacific. The resolutions presented
by him some weeks ago to the board of
directors making these charges. We're re-
ferred to the accounting. traffic and op-
Grating officers, and the reports which
were transmitted by me to the board of
directors show that the charges were ut
terly groundless and that the accounts
have been kept precisely as they were I'M
der Mr.. Fish's administration and that
the relations with all connecting lines
are the same as before his retirement
His reference TO alleged domination by
the Union Pacific is merely an effort

Could Not Give Security.

Mr.. Fish being unable to pay the loan
or to satisfactorily secure it, there were
various consultations among his friends
on the board Of directors and negOtia-
tons designed for the payment of the
Indebtedness and the protection of the
credit of the company as well as Mr.
t1sh's reputation. After it was demon
Strated that Mr.. Fish was unable to re-
lm6urSe the company director individ
ually loaned him the money necessary 20
repay the company. In order to secure
this loan Mr.. Fish pledged not only the
unmarketable collateral above mentioned
but also conveyed his residence I'm New
York and his undivided interest in the
estate of the late Hamilton Fish Out of
consideration for Mr.. Fish such convey
ances were not placed on record. The
director making the loan carried it for
several years, until Mr. Fish was able to
iquidate it.

Charge Against Fish.

The attack made by Mr.. Fish
upon the character of his fellow directors
and upon the operating accounting and
traffic officers of the company warrants
full statement to the stockholders of
the reasons why Mr.. Fish was not en-
trusted with the continued management
of the property. l enclose herewith a copy
of a letter addressed by eight directors
OF the company to Mr. Fish under date
of Nov. Z, 1896, setting forth specifically
some of the reasons why they would not
vote for his reelection as president There
were other reasons Of a controlling char
acter which were referred to in general
terms, but out of consideration for Mr.
Fish were not specially mentioned in that
letter. The most conspicuous of these Is
that while Mr.. Fish was president Of
your company, and as such the virtual
custodian Of its treasury, he loaned to
himself as an individual, about 81 500. OTj
from the treasury of the company upon
security of his own selection. which

Pins in Letters.

IF people must stick pins in their

that systematic folk use to hold their

make out, anyway, why so many let
tiers need to be finished off with pin.
"Of course, understand that about
half Of those written by women have
postscript in the shape Of samples
Of dress goods or newspaper clippings
which perhaps require pin or two to

"TilIy Olson

A new aud novel comedy drama
announced for presentation at
The Armory, Monday, Feb. 4, is
the Anglo scandinavian play
Chilly Olson.' The playwright
has made the leading role a young
Swedish girl, forced to serve in
a mental capacity with a family
of country people on a Minnesota
farm. She had been robbed of
of her Inheritance in early life
and unknown to her, the place
where she lives rightfuIly belongs
to her. She is prosecuted and
generally badly treated but despite
all, manages to enjoy life as she
finds it and extracts considerable
humor from her honely lot.
Things look up after awhile for
lilly and she becomes almost a
lady of quality at the end of the
play, having regained her lost
inheritance and marries a man of
her choice. The author has taken
pains TO sketch carefully the char
acteristic traits of the fair daugh-
tiers of Scandinavia and lilly is a
type never before exploited on
the stage. The piece is extremely
amusing and contains some very
clever comedy situations. 1t will
be played by an excellent company
and will be surrounded by an ade-
quate scenic equipment. Miss
Adelaide Harland is cast for the
role of "Tilly" and her work as
all eccentric Coincidence is said
to be very good indeed. There
are four acts and eight SCIENCES in
the play, two acts laid in the
country and two in the city of
Minneapolis.
