Causes All Kinds of Com
ment Yesterday.
PRESS CALLS HIM SASSY
fAmerican News Service)


Liverpool, March 1.-THE mobbing
of James A. Patten, the Chicago wheat
multimillionaire by the brokers on the
Manchester cotton exchange has arous.
ed storm of condemnation throughout
England. Every effort to wipe out
the effect of the Manchester incident
has been made.
One of the most prominent mer-
chants of Liverpool today received this
is the report of the treatment of Pat
ten at Manchester true: England
pretends to friendship with America
but would heathenish China be guilty
o fthis? Patten is one of Americas
purest men,
The Liverpool merchant replied
Report is substantially correct. Liv
erpool resents Manchester's treatment
of Patten and the best Manchester mer
are ashamed and personally feel the
discourtesy strongly"
1t is understood here that the Man
chester exchange will order an inves
tigation.
The comments in the English pres:
| in London and elsewhere on the Man
! chester incident. however. show NJ
sympathy for Patten. The Westmin
! ster Gazette of London, calls his visi
to the Manchester exchange ''impu
dence'' and the Pail Mall Gazette de
nounces his operations in America
The business men generally deprecat
the mob action, however.

Waged by Hartman

WANT TO GUST HARAHAN
PREPARATIONS FOR THE BIG
STRUGGLE HAVE BEEN IN PRO-
GREss FOR OVER A MONTH,
WALL STREET HEARS.
american News Service)

New York, March IA fight for
the control of the Illinois Central as
bitter as that between the late f. H.
Hartman and Stuyvesant Fish, is i'm
minent, it was learned today in Wall
street. The opponents of the Harri-
man interests are laying their plans to
GUST J. r. Harahan, who was made
president of the road when Hartman
defeated Fish in the first contest, and
ex-Judge Robert S. Lovett, successor of
Hartman in the leadership of the lat
ter's projects, will shortly be forced to
struggle for continued ascendancy in
the Illinois Central Preparations for
the fight have been under way for a
month. A corps of experts has been
going over the books of the company
at the offices in Chicago. The object
of this is to show in dollars and cents
the results of the Hartman Harahan
regime.
The move for an examination of the
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1910-03-13

accounts was taken by committee of
the directors.
The result, it is believed, will be
vigorous attempt within short time
after the experts report is complete,
to put out of office some of the highest
officers, including President Harahan.
Could Draw Pension.
Mr. Harahan would be entitled to a
pension of $4,000 year if he held Of
flee till 1913, when he will be 20 years
old, but his retirement now would
leave him without 4 pension. His
salary is $4,000. He took office in
1906.
The opponents of the Hartman in
terests hope to show that the manage
ment of the road has not been finan-
| cialiy successful under Harahan. The
Yazoo and Mississippi Valley road, a
subsidiary, for the first tine in its his
tory, failed to earn full interest on the
$50, 100000 bonds in the fiscal year
| ending June 80. 1908 In 1909 its
| profit and loss account showed debit
balance though when Fish left office
it had a credit balance of 100000.
| Another subsidiary, the Louisville
New Orleans and Texas, has been bur
dened with S2S,174 ,J33 bonds. The
debt from subsidiary companies to the
Illinois Central has grown In two years
81 .9OS,3JS. reaching $3,41o, 422.
1t is claimed by Harahan's opponents
that the main road shows up no better
though the system of bookkeeping has
been so radically changed that compar
ison with former years is difficult
They also say its physical condition
has deteriOrated.
