THE ILLINOIS CENTRAL
CONTEST AGAIN

Editorial comment upon a directorial
contest In corporations sifairs would
not be In most cases just or eXpedient.
But in the case OF the affairs OF tho iii
nois Central railroad. the Evening Post
believes. as il has said on n previous oc-
caslon. that comment Is fitting, since that
corporation is a public institution, legally
recognized by special relations 10 the
state and by the ex-off.cio presence os tho
governor In its directorate.
In an adjoining column the Evening

the latest facts i'm the so-called Fish-Har-
ahan controversy.
These facts. which are fully avthenti-
Gated. are or ought to be conclusive upon
the only issue between the two factions
I'm which the public and the stockholders
of the railroad have any concern-the ef-
ficiency of the present management of
the property.
Mr. Fish has sought to show that the
railroad was not as we'll managed under
Mr.. Harahan IA IL should be and as II
would be under Mr.. Fish He gave forth
dramatic prophecies that the railroad was
TO be sacrificed to other interests.
The facts in Mr.. Killen's article should
put an end to these claims. Mr.. Hara-
hans management speaks for itself in
terms of profit. IL need not fall back
upon charges or predictions.
Mr.. Harahan himself has grown up In
this property and won his way by sheer
ability TO his proper place at its head.
Surrounded by tried organization, which
has worked with him and works with
him today. he has only TO offer the result
as his champion. He needs no other

and that cause vital one to the welfare
of this property. IL has been proved that
he violated his trust by involving the
funds of the company in an external en-
terprise. This is the unpardonable sin OF
corporate morality.

troll of the Illinois Central Railroad Com

Worcester, Mass, July 12.-Frank w.
Phipps, proprietor OF the Lily Pond house
in Shrewsbury near which the body OF
Charles L. Burnap. was found on Mon
day night, was arrested this afternoon on
the charge OF having murdered Burnar,
and was locked up In the jail In this city.
The state police previous to his arrest
had been actively at work on the case
following out various theories that had
been suggested.
Worcester, Mass, July 12.-The state
police. who for the past three days have
been investigating the murder OF Charles
L. Burnap. in Shrewsbury, Monday night,
today were following two conflicting
theories developed by witnesses who have
thus far been examined in connection
with the case
one OF the theories is that Burnap was
killed by someone who had been with him
at the Lily Pond house, near which the
mans body was found. and who had fol-
lowed him from the place to shoot him.
The other theory is that the man was
shot at some remote place. possibly while
in a boat on Lake Quinsigamond. and the
body was brought to the spot where II
was found on Monday night. The police
admit that they are having difficulty In
getting at the facts because OF the re-
iuctance of persons who may have been
at the Lily Pond house during Monday
night 10 say anything about IL.
