ARE IN DOUBT ABOUT LAW

UMENTS FOR INJUNcTIONS
SHOULD BE UPHELD.

CHICAGO, Nov. 1.-Stuyvesant Fish
and f. H. Hartman may settle their
war over the Illinois Central control
out of court 1t is said that financial
Interests of magnitude fear the adju-
dication of the Fish contention and
that corporation cannot own and
vote the stock of another in Illinois.
The fact that the Hartman interests
have not evinced any haste in asking G
a dissolution of the Fish injunction is
one of the grounds upon which the
rumor of the coming compromise
among the magnates is based, but it
is asserted that the principal pressure
for compromise comes from outside
interests whose position would be seri-
ously compromised if cOurts/ should
uphold the Fish management. Mr.. Har-
riman is quoted as recently stating
that if the allegations in the Fish COM
plaint are correct practically every
corporation of any size in the United
States would have to reorganize.

AS the number of saints increase it be-
came impossible to dedicate feast
