earth. The whole state is roaring
like young earthquake with evcite
ment. Every body is either rich or
going to be day otter tomorrow. nc
one ever saw such confidence The
cold is not minded. Tie blizzard is
not considered. All kinds of hardships
are laughed out of existence. The

OPEN PROOF OF
DIRECT PLUMBER.
CHICAGO & ALTON
INVESTIGATION
BROUGHT ABOUT PUBLIC STORM
WITH REGARD TO RAIL
WAYS IN GENERAL.

What has aroused this public storm
Is the open proof which the Chicago
and Alton investigation gave that
there had been direct plumber under
the forms OF law. Mr. Hartman and
his three associates bought this rail
road outright. II needed new equip
ment. This could have been provided
by Issuing two-thirds of the bonds put
out; but the public would buy all
three-thirds. SO the directors sold
the bonds to themselves at 65. to
the public at 81. and made the diff
ference. Out of $94.OOO.OOO of new
securities. both bonds and shares. is
sued part for cash and part as bonds.
only S22.00O,OOO were actually spent
in improving the road.
The criminal law was violated. The
intent of the laws of Illinois was dis
obeyed, but these directors were all
advised. No criminal punishment and
no legal remedy exist.
But this was none the less immor-
al. These directors were trustees of
public interests. They had no moral
right to use their official power to
issue bonds to put money in their
pockets. Morally. their gains were
taken out of the Chicago and Al
ton treasury, as much as If they had
taken it in bills.
Mr.. Hartman forgets all this. He
has done these things so long that he
Is no longer conscious that they are
wrong. The public knows better. Il
judges his act by a code more search
ing than any statute, and so judging.
1t holds him and men like him re-
sponsible 1t refuses them conf
dence. 1t demands laws which will
end this use of fduciary powers for
private profit under forms OF law

Hughes made the startling announce
ment that The number of people
killed or wounded in the various in
dustries OF The United states amounts
to 100000 every year, And vet. If
we bear IN mind what a large num-
Der of people fan victims annually
to the carelessness with which our

OF our industrial activity the total
number OF accidents should reach the
stupendous figure of half a million.

STICKNEY THINKS RAILROADS.
SHOULD GET MORE
MONEY.

Washington, March President
Stickney, OF the Chicago and Great
Western Railway, tonight sent the
following telegram TO the Chicago
kecord-Herald i'm response to a re-
quest for his views on the financial
situation as affecting railroads:
The present railway situation is
such that the average dividends have
been substantially extinguished by
the increased wages of the last six
months, amounting to about 10 per
cent In my opinion the lining up
or rates preventing discrimination
and an increase in rates of about 10
per cent 10 cover the increased cost
OF operation would do more TO re
store confidence than any possible
aith cure of cooperation.
