SALOON MURDER TRIAL.
Result Of Street Fight Being Inves-
tiQated by Court

Waukesha, Wis, Sept 24-Charles
P. Ralph of this city, charged with the
killing of Frank Hewes, an itinerant
printer, was placed on trial for muir
der, the case being taken up immedi-
ately upon the retiring of the jury In
the McNaughton will case.
Ralph is being defended by former
District Attorney T. w. Parkinson.
His wife and small children were by
his side in court. 1t is not thought
probable that District Attorney Muck
lesion will ask a conviction of murder
in the first degree. Hewes met his
death as the result of street fight
in front of Kob's saloon on Broadway
on the night of June 20. 1t Is charged
that Ralph, without provocation struck
HeWes and knocked him to the pave
ment. Hewes lay unconscious at a
hospital eleven days, dying without
regaining consciousness. Ralph has
since been in jail, having been unable
to secure bail.

FISH APPEALS TO STOCKHOLDERS
OF ILLINOIS CENTRAL TO RALLY
AROUND HIM AGAINST HARTMAN
Deposed Railroad President Opens Fight
for Recovery Of Power
Shows How Game Is to Practically MERGE
With Pacific Lines
Pleads for Proxies to Use at the Ann ia
Meeting Next Month

of which increase 1904, 751 is reported
as made in the single month OF June.
This palpable misstatement," con
tinues Fish, was further emphasized
by the fact that although neither
mileage or operating conditions had
changed in the slightest degree, the
succeeding month of July showed a
falling off of~$35,09S in net revenue
as against a reported gain of $604,-
751 in June. Yet my resolution OF
inquiry was referred for report to
the president, the very officer who
had brought the accounting directly
under his own control, and of course
its whole purpose was defeated"
Fish then gives as the reason for
his effort to secure proxies the "ex-
traordinary efforts the management Is
putting forth with the evident inten-
ton of electing b. H. hartman and
such persons as he may select,
backed by the holdings of the Union
Pacific, which constitute the practical
balance of power" He then puts IL
up to the stockholders to determine
whether those holding about 30 per
cent. of the stock are to name the
directors of the Illinois Central rail-
road company without the consent and
to the detriment of the remaining 20
per cent.

TWO-CENT LAW
TO Be TESTED
GREEN BAY G. WESTERN WILL
ENJOlN STATE FROM ENFORCE
MENT OF STATUTE.
Madison, Sept. "a.

Madison, Sept. "a.
Suit is to be begun by the Green
Bay e Western railway to test the
2-cent passenger law passed by the
last legislature.
Announcement to this effect has
been quietly made ~ officers of the
road. but they VIII not openly con-
firm the fact until ,Ae papers in the
suit are served.
1t is understood that the law firm
of Green, Fairchild, Parker e North
of Green Bay will represent the road
in the proceeding and that the pa
pers in the case are being prepared
The action will, c is said, be
brought by the road itself and will
enjoin the state from further enforce
ment of the law.
The grounds for the action will be
the claim that the 2-cent passenger
fare rate is not compensatory for the
service.
As near as can be learned, the &C
ton will be brought alone by the
-Ireen Bay & Western road, but as
the injunction proceeding is an
equity case other roads can, under
the claim of being in like interest.
participate in the proceeding if they
desire to o so.
