BIG BUGS IN TOLLS
ILLINOIS CENTRAL SCANDAL
COMES TO CLIMAX BY ARREST
OF THREE Ex.oFFlcERs.
Frauds That Aggregate Millions
Charged Against the Accused by
President Harahan.

Chicago.-Three former officials of
the Illinois Central Railroad company
were arrested Friday in connections
with the alleged huge frauds by
means Of which the railroad asserts
1t was defrauded out of $1,500,O00.
The men arrested were.
Frank B. Hartman. former general
manager of the road. a
Charles l.. Ewing, former manager
OF lines north of the Ohio.
John X. Taylor, formerly general
storekeeper of the road.
The warrants were sworn to by
President Harahan of the railroad
concerned. They charge the three
men with conspiracy to cheat and de.
fraud the railroad by false rrotenses
and with operating a confidence game
Hartman and Ewing were taken to
the Harrison street police station.
Their bonds of $4,000 each were
signed by professional bondsmen.
The allegations in the so-called
graft case are among the most sensa-
tional In which high officials of a
great corporation have ever been
named. The investigation began over
a year ago. 1t reached crisis last
spring, when President Harahan be-
gan actions to recover sums said to
aggregate more than s1,OO0,OOO alleg-
ed to have been secured by car repair
companies in connivance with high Of
ficials of the road. Hartman. Ewing,
Taylor and a large number of others
of lesser magnitude resigned their po-
sitions
Much of the money is said to have
been repaid privately. The name OF
Ira G. Rawn, vice-president Of the
road, who resigned to become presi-
dent OF the Monon, and who was
found dead recently at his home with
bullet wound in his breast, was
brought into the scandal. Murray Mel
son, Jr., attorney for the Illinois Cen
trail, stated that Rawn's death headed
off warrants which would have been
issued for him.

himself as a progressive, so far as
the New York situation goes.
Colonel Roosevelt issued the follow
ing statement:
TO the various persons who asked
me whether l would accept the posi-,

state convention, l said that l would
do so only If they were sure, knowing
my attitude, that they desired me, be.

character that ] might help If the com

on clear cut, progressive platform;
but that it would hurt If neither the
right kind of a man were nominated
nor the right kind of platform
adopted"
1t was his most pointed political
statement since his return, and those
who saw him were convinced that he
had determined to begin an open fight
on the "old guard"

there he invested in a number Of boxes
Of fancy Strawberries, and brought them
home with him, as a treat for himself
and the home folks. When he reached
Kingman Monday night, he was deeply
engrossed in conversation with a travel
ling companion relative to the approac h
Of Halley's comet, and when it came
time for him to get off the train at King
man he forgot his package Of berries, and
they were carried out to Pratt the same
night The Judge remembered the ber-
ries shortly after the train had pulled out
but not in time to stop the train, so he
deferred his feast Of strawberries and
cream until the train should return in the
morning. Next morning the Judge was
down at the train bright and early in
search Of the berries, his mouth water
ing" in anticipation Of the feast he and
the family were to enjoy. When the
train pulled in he smilingly enquired Of
the train crew in reference to the missing
fruit when they coldIy and cruelty in

CIaud Catlin's Preliminary Today

The preliminary trial of State
VS.. Claud Catlin will be held be-
fore Justice Collins in this city to
day. Mr.. Catlin is the young man
whose arrest was recited in these
columns last week. He failed to
give bail and has been detained in
Jail since his arrest on Tuesday of
last week. He is charged with
having taken up a note held
against him by the Peoples State
Bank, by giving a bogus check on
the Nashville Bank, but since his
arrest it has developed that he has
also been in other questionable
work. 1t is stated on good author
ity that he has mortgaged proper
ty two and three times and also
has listed property which he did
not possess. 1t appears that she is
involved close to $4,000 with only
about $500 worth of property
available.
Mr.. Catlin is not what could be
said to be a very bad man but ne
has certainly been very reckless and
daring in his business transactions.

it is near the time when our gro
cermen set their vegetables out on

there are many tall dogs in town
and it operates as though they had
drunk from some of our mineral
springs.
Now, Mr.. Editor, you know
what mean to say and if you will
help me out you will do the public
a great favor. What we wan! is
the vegetables in boxes, and above
high water mark. For the good
of woman and mankind the gro
GERS will please attend it. Those
wire screens, too, they sometimes
use on their baskets and boxes are
not water tight. This, l repeat, is
a delicate matter but, you know
when a lady goes shopping for

don't like to be obliged to get
peas. Also please put this in shape
so as to offend nobody and greatly
