SuSpends Mining Operations.

The Southern Lead & Zinc Co. ,
Louisville corporation, lessees Of the
Columbia mine, has suspended pay
ment temporarily. 1t is currently
rumored and generally believed that
the suspension was brought about By
friction in the company and not on
account of the output not being sat
isfactory. We are informed that
the finest mineral was being taken
out in paying quantities up to the
last day.
General Manager Drescher is un-
able just at this time to state how
long it will be before the mines will

The Control Of the Illinois Central,

A vigorous conteat for the control
Of the Illinois Central railroad is
being waged between Stuyyesant
Fish and T. II Hartman. Once
these two men were warm riends and
allies. But something more than a
year ago Hartman obtained possess
ion of 100, 600 shares of the ILLINOIS
Central, which be sold to the UniCn
Pacific, But as he was in absolute
control of the latter road, he was
after the sale quite in as much pos
session of tee shares as he had been
before the transfer. At all events
he used the shares to turn Fish out
OF the presidency Of the road, which
place Fish had held for twenty years.
He did more. He substituted for
Fish a subordinate offcer-Harrahan
who, a short time ago at a meeting,
was knocked down by Fish for APP
plying a short and ugly word to some
statement Of the latter.
At the present stage Of the contest

from the effects Of which he died
about thirty minutes later.
The unfortunate little fellow, to-
gether with Paul Sigler, a cousin,
and one or two other small boys, was
playing about the depot when the
north bound freight train pulled out
As the train started off Register

box cars aud then back to the ground

times, the last time his foot hung
and he was thrown under the wheels

His left leg was horribly crushed
and almost severed from the body
and the toes and heel on the right
foot were crushed off.

little fellow had been hurt several

it looks as if Fish would regain con-
troll Proxies which some time ago
were gwen to Harrahan are being
concealed in the interest of Fish.
Thursday at a meeting Of local stock
holders In the Illinois Central road
in Hartford, the proxies Of more than
5000 shares we're turned over to
Fish. 1t does not, Of course, affect
the fual result, but it is Of record
that this was done as the choice Of
the lesser Of two evils. 10 short,
Hartford is against Hartman.
But If there was a Fish victory 10
the Connecticut capital, Hartman
had a triumph IN Massachusetts,, The
latter scored in Worcester and vein
ity in getting about 5000 proxies.
So as between the Nutmeg and the
Bay state, Fish is ahead by about
5, 600 proxies. 1t is reported that
the agents Of both forces are securing
New England, picking up even the
proxies Of single shares. Thus it
appears that New England will de.
termine the interesting contest. Also
that the vote will be close since such
extraordinary methods are taken to
obtain the voting power -Evans-
