New York, Aug 30-James J. Hill,
in an interview here last night said:
What We need most just now is
clear head in charge of the nations af-
fairs and a steady hand at the helm
do you believe, Mr. Hill was asked,
that a clear head and a steady hand
are guiding the countrys policy at
present?' "Oh, yes, to be sure" re-
piled the builder of the Great North
ern railroad But in order to get
those who have the power to make
investments to regard good securities
with more favor it will be necessary
to restore confidence. How can that
be done? l can't say how. Every
man probably has his own opinion of
that subject. l don't view the situa-
ton with any alarm. l should think
prices are at about the lowest l
don't see how they can go much
lower"

dinner guests at the Hotel Astor saw
everything worth seeing and visited

day night The prince declared that
he had not had SO much fun for long
while. In the princes party at Coney
Island were the Swedish minister and
Nine. Lagercrantz; Huntington Will
son, third assistant secretary of state;
John B. Jackson, the United States
minister to Persia; Commodore Lind

cruiser Fylgia; Capt. Klercker, A.

The first news that the prince re-
ceived on arising Thursday was that
John Person, one of the sailors of the
Fylgia, had fallen overheard from a
landing at the foot of Seventy-seventh
street in the Hudson river, but was
rescued and taken to a hospital. The
prince said he wanted to visit the
sailor and it was arranged that he
should do so at two p. M. After call
ng at the hospital the prince planned
to visit the points of interest in the
financial district.
Chauffeur Is Arrested.
A somewhat untoward incident hap
pened shortly after the princes party
had returned from Oyster Bay Wednes-
day. A bicycle policeman halted an
automobile containing the Swedish
minister, Swedish naval officer, a Sc
cret service detective and a chauffeur,
on Broadway, on the ground that the
chauffeur was exceeding the speed
limit. Notwithstanding the protests
of the detective, the chauffeur was
arrested by the policeman, which
necessitated a trip of Baron Lager
crantz to the station house to explain
to the police lieutenant that the chauf
feur meant no harm. The prisoner
was released out of courtesy to the
minister.

friendship between the two men Mr..
Harahan's frequent promotions were
due to the influence of Mr.. Fish and
that the former was the latter's most
steadfast support In the management
OF the road
Mr.. Harahan Is said to have stuck
with his friend and chief until the
victory of Hartman was certain.
When Hartman finally achieved the
deposition OF Fish from the presi-
dency, Harahan was on the winning
side of the directorate and his subse-
quent election to the presidency was
clearly understood to have been the
will of Hartman.
Harahan Is Criticised.
A great deal of criticism was aimed
at Harahan for deserting the fortunes
of his friend, during the excitement
OF the fight and the sympathy for Mr..
Fish after his downfall. Friends of
Harahan made the assertion at once
that he had not sold out" to Harri-
man, but that even against his judg-
ment Harahan had remained loyal to
the former president until the retire
ment of the latter became inevitable.
1t is said that many of the stock
holders and directors believed the
choice OF new president a wise one
because of Harahan's experience in
the operation of the road as vice pres
ident.

Statement Made by Harahan.
On his election to the presidency
Harahan gave out the following state
ment:
Il need no introduction, I hope, to
the Illinois Central. For over 16 years
I have been in active charge of the
operations of the railroad, Of both
the operating department and the traf-
fic department, which together COM

tions of the company with its en-
ployes and with the public. Conse-
quently neither Of these great classes
will meet any strange face merely be-
cause there has been a change in the
presidency of the company, and our
relations will continue just the same.
The board Of directors, upon which
the law imposes the responsibility.

ed the position, and with the loyal
support which I'm sure I'll have of

long standing friendship and good will
of the people along the lines and of
our patrons generally, the command
ing position of the company and the
efficiency Of it's service will be more
than maintained"

ARMED POSSES IN
PURSUIT OF CONVICTS
BATTLE WITH DESPERADOES
WHO ESCAPED FROM PENITEN-
TIARY BELIEVED NEAR.
SAW IRON BARS AND
SCALE PRISON WALL
Fuqitives Relieved to Be in Hiding
Make Rope Out of Sheets and Es-
cape After Fight with Guards
Twenty Detectives in Search.

Joliet, Ill.,, Aug. 30-Two desperate
and notorious Chicago safe blowers es-
capped late Wednesday night from the
Joliet penitentiary. Edward Quinn
and Harry Harmon, serving long SEN
tences, sawed their way to freedom
in what the police consider one Of
the cleverest exploits of the kind ever
effected in Illinois. Armed posses of
prison guards and deputy sheriffs,
headed by Warden Murphy, are scour-
ing the country surrounding Joliet for
traces of the criminals, while 40 Chi
cago detectives are lying in wait at
railroad yards in that city or are
searching for the desperate pair in
their old haunts.
Pursuers Ready for Battle.
Reports that the men had barricad-
ed themselves in an abandoned box
car at Brander's bridge, two miles
from Joliet, caused a band of deter
mined purSuers, armed with repeating
rifles and an abundance of ammuni-
ton, to hurry to the scene, and bat
tie is expected if the desperadoes are
brought to bay.
Rumors that Quinn and Harmon
had outside aid in their flight to free
dom were brought to the attention of
Chief McMasters of the Joliet police
department. The police official
thought that friends met the fugitives
and supplied them with clothes and
arms. The fact that suits of clothing
had been stolen at farmhouse near
the Santa Fe railroad tracks led the
police to believe that Quinn and Har-
mon had escaped detection by secur-
ing the clothes and wearing them.
Quinn, who is known as one of the
cleverest safe blowers in the coun-
try, together with Harmon, also promi-
nent in criminal annals, escaped from
the penitentiary,a midnight by bend
ing back bars which they had pre-
viously sawed in the hospital build
ing of the prison, where both men
were employed as nurses.
Use Rope of Sheeting.
BY means of a rope made of linen
bed sheeting and hook imprOvised
from an iron bar, the men dropped to
the grounds of the prison and scaled
the high penitentiary wall. Guards
were changing at midnight watch and
they gained their liberty before the
alarm was sounded. Their bold flight
was witnessed by George Peary, a
watchman for the Joliet street rail
road, who hurriedly notified the prison
officials of the daring delivery.
Both Acted as Nurses.
Quinn, who was serving a 2O-year
sentence for safe blowing, had been
employed as day nurse in the three
story hospital for three years. Har.
mon, who was sent to the penitentiary
in June, 1902, was given the position
of night nurse. An average of IA con
vict patients occupy the hospital,
which is guarded day and night.

VIOLENCE IN TELEGRAPH TlE-UP.
Operator at Waukegan Said to Have
Been AssaIed by Strikers.

Chicago, Aug. 30.-The first appear
ance of concerted violence in the tele-
graphers' strike against the Western
Union and the Postal Telegraph COM
panies came late Wednesday, accord
ing to reports from Waukegan. A non
union operator employed by the Postal
company there was assailed by a
crowd of sympathizers with the strik-
ing telegraphers who had attended a
boat excursion from Chicago.
When the strike order was issued
the Waukegan operator, John Laux,
refused to leave the office. He was
visited Tuesday by committee of the
strikers from Chicago and urged to
join in the fight against the compares,
but he refused. Wednesday, 1t is said,
a large crowd entered his office and at
tackled him. He escaped, however,
without being handled roughly.
