as follows:

HARTMAN
Wins Out Over Fish for Con-
troll Of the Illinois
Central
Court Holds That u. 2. and
|. c. Are Not Compel
ing Lines
So Hartman Can Nov Vote
|. c. Stock Held BY
the u. |.

Chicago, Feb. 20 Judge Ball of the
superior court, today dissolved the in
junction secured last October by Stuy-
vesant Fish by virtue Of which the
Hartman interests were restraiped
from voting 2S1, 231 shares Of the CAPT
tai stock of the company.
The theory on which counsel for
MIR. Fish based their arguments in
support of the injunction- that il was
contrary to the laws and public poll
ICY of Illinois to allow foreign corpora
stions to own and vote stock Of domes-
tic corporations was denied by the
court.
Under the ruling of the court the
previously enjoined stock, which is
held by the Union Pacific Railroad
company and by the Railroad Securi
ties company of New Jersey, can be
voted at the annual meeting of the
Illinois Central in this city, March
End.
There As no appeal from the decE-
]sion handed down today by Judge
Ball, but 1t is considered probable that
Mr.. Fish will take further legal steps
to regain possession Of the Illinois
Central \
] Judge F. B. Farrar of New Orleans,
who has acted as leading counsel for
Mr.. Fish nthe controversy, said to-
day after the rendering of the deci-
sion, that the case will now be tried
on it's merits, but declined to say how
quickly new proceedings will be in
/ stituted
| None of the principals in the case
were in court, both Mr.. Fish and Mr..
Hartman being in New York.
| The court declared that Mr.. Fish
had not been able to prove any of his
contentious; that the domination of
] the Illinois Central by Mr.. Hartman
would be to its injury and had also
failed to show that the interest of the
stockholders would be injured there
by. The Union Pacific and Illinois
| Central, he sid, were not competing
but are connecting lines and one could
not be a commercial rival of the 9th
er in such sense as to fall within the
scope of legal decisions against an
alliance between competing railroads
The two roads, the court declared,
were not operating so as to make il
possible that they could combine IT,
n.onopolize traffic in any section OF
| the country.
| The court further declared that Mr..
| Fish had failed to substantiate many
of the declarations made against Mr.
Hartman.

,poror.. a full pardon.
Even Sfpessel,s former enemies,
the Japs, have come forward to say
that he did not deserve this treat
ment at the hands Of his country,
and Stoessel himself argued before
the court martial that he had justi-
hcation for his action. In his last
words before the court, Gen. Stoessel
accepted the full responsibility for
the surrender Of Port Arthur and
pleaded for death sentence if the
court should decide that crime had
been committed.

Grand Duke Nick

ST. Petersburg, Feb. 2O-Attempts
that had been planned against the
lives of exalted personages were frus-
trated by the police tonight by sue.
cession of arrests in various parts of
the city, aggregating fifty men and
women.
This is the greatest number of ter
orists ever taken by the police in the
capital. A majority of them were
heavily armed, some of them with
bombs, and they made desperate re-
sistance against the police. During
the course of the arrests three police
men were wounded and one was kill
ed.
The operations centered around the
palace of Grand Duke Nicholas Mich
olaevich, who, it is surmised, was the
immediate object of the plot.

QUESTION Of DIVISION OF
NARDCOl1NFYl lNIOIHREE
Judge TempeOn viii Issue Writ Ordering Proposition Of
Creating MOntrail County Placed on General Elec.
ton BalIot---Big Fights Now in Sight

Minot, N. D., Feb. 20-News has
reached the citys today that Judge
Templeton will issue a mandatory
writ compelling the Ward county com.
missioners to place the proposition of
dividing Ward county and the creation
of Montreal on the general election
ballot next November.
The issue involved in the manda
mus proceedings against the commits
sioners is well known. The commits
sioners contended that under the law
only one proposition could be sub.
mitted at time, and further that the
proposed division was unconstitution-
al for the reason that the proposed
county of Montrail included a part
of the 14th and part of the 10Th
legislative districts, in conflict with
