the superior court his report on the death
of Elisha $. Arnold. aged lS years, who
on Nov. 81, was run down by an automo-
bile and killed. The coroner finds that
Edward j. 'McCabe was. at the time Ar
mold was struck. operating the automo-
bile and that McCabe and he alone is re-
sponsible for the death Of the 13-year-old
lad.
This case has created good deal OF
comment. McCabe had the reputation OF
having on occasions proven himself a fast
operator and the unfortunate accident
that the report deals-with took place IN
the presence of good many people.
There was a fremen's parade at the time
and young Arnold was following II and
did not soc the automobile until he was
knocked down.
McCabe was placed under arrest soon
after the boy was run down. He had
private hearing before Judge Palmer and
gave bail I'm the sum OF 5000 on warrant
charging manslaughter. There will be

New York. Dec. 9.-The Illinois Central
fight grows daily more strenuous. Mr..
Fish's latest proclsmations and his free
use OF epithets betokens n raw spot dis
closed by a majority of the directors In
their statement regarding Fish manage
ment. That this statement was disturbing
there can be no doubt and latest returns
Indicate detection among the Fish ad-
herents in New England and in Europe
both hitherto Fish strongholds.
One OF the weakest points in the Fiah
position is In connection with the derelct
Trust Company or the Republic Direct
accusations are made by the directors
that Fish bolstered up the Trust company
with Illinois Central funds-at times To
tide them over a necessitous perlod-at
times for window dressing purposes when
banking statements were due-and at
times with large deposits which once In
could not be made available for n check
ing account owing To the weakness OF the
institution. Illinois Central money was
tmperilled, charge Mr.. Fish's fellow di-
rectors. and so seriously that only by
compromise and long delay was the rail-
road company able To secure the return
OF its funds.
Yet Mr. Fish defends this and his per-
sonal loans from the railroad by saying
that both were amply secured and fur
ther that his reputation and personal for
tune were back OF them.
WHY ALL THE MYSTERY.
If secured so fully. why all the mystery
about the collateral? Were the implication
false. II ought to be easy to refute IL with
n public announcement as to what the Sc
curities were. AS to personal fortune be-
Ing behind the loans TO Fish IL Is specif-
cally charged by Mr.. Fish's co-trustee
that he could not Of himself repay when
called upon to do so but was compelled 10

Hartman money paid Fishs indebted
ness to Illinois Central
The facts OF the case are now so we'll

unanswered. Were not disastrous results
