ARE COUNTING
The PROXIES
NO ELECTION OF DIRECTORS UNI
TIL REPORT IS MADE.
(By Associated Press.)

Chicago, Oct. 17.-Until three men,
who are now locked in a room count
ing proxies, are able to report to the
stockholders of the Illinois Central
railroad, there will be no election of
directors. Twice today the stock
holders assembled only to be told
that the proxy examiners were not
ready to report. An adjournment was
taken at 3 o'clock this afternoon and
carried the meeting over till tomor-
row afternoon at o'clock.
The attorneys for Mr.. Hartman,
who have all along been trying to
push matters to a speedy conclusion,
chafed sorely under the delays im-
posed by the proxy inspectors. When
1t was evident that the committee
would not be able to report, Mr..
Cromwell went to Judge Edgar Far
rar, who represents Mr.. Fish, with a
proposition that all the proxies be
thrown upon a. table in the general
meeting and that conflicting proxies
should be thrown on. This would
have killed all revocations that have
been made and the proposition was
promptly refused BY Judge Farrar.
Offers a Solution.
While the meeting was waiting for
some word from the committee to de-
termine the time until which adjourn
ment should be taken, Mr.. Hartman
picked up his chair, and carrying it to
the end of the press table, sat down
with the remark, 4 think you gentle
men can do more to settle this rail-
road situation than anyone else"
When asked for an explanation, he
said, "You can do it by refusing to
print one side of the proposition until
you have seen the men on the other
side and let him have his say at the
same time. am sick and most other
men are sick of the continued at,
tacks made against the railroads
When charges are made against the
railroad, the proper thing to do is tn
refrain from publishing them until the
party bringing the charges and the
representatives of the railroads have
had conference with the representa-
tives of the press present"

BANKER MAGlLL
TELLS HIS STORY
DECLARES HE FOUND HIS WIFE
DEAD IN THE MORNING.
(By Associated Press.)

Decatur, ILL.,, Oct. 17The early
part of todays session Of the trial of
Fred and Fay Magill, charged with
the death of Magill's first wife, Mrs.
"Pet" Magill, was occupied with the
reading of the seven letters identified
by Magill's daughter, Marguerite,
when she was on the stand yesterday,
as having been written by her mother,
while the latter was sitting UP in bed
previous to her death.
After the reading of the letters Ma
gill himself was placed upon the stand.
He told of his first wife's desponden-
cy and said that he saw her propped
up in bed writing letters. He said
that when veterinary surgeon was
called to the house to chloroform a
horse, Mrs. Magill had said she wished
the chloroform was for her and not
the horse. He said that Postmaster
Dawson of Clayton told him that
Mrs. Magill told the postmaster that
she was taking chloroforn, and that
Dawson told the witness that he had
said to her, You had better get a
gun and kill yourself instead Of TAX
ing chloroform.''
Found Her Dead.
He added that on the night Mrs.
Magill had died he had requested
Marguerite to telephone to Fay Ora
ham not to forget the promise Fay
had made Mrs. Magi1l. Just before he
retired that night his wife requested
him to get her 8 bottle OF beer. He
got her bottle from the ice chest
and then retired. IN the morning he
saw that his wife was not in the
room. He made search In the house
and found her lying In the spare
room. He spoke to her and got no
reply, and on examination found that
she was dead, and detected the odor
of chloroform.
