FRAUD CHARGE STIRS
STOCKHOLDERS OF |. C..
Maxwell Edgar Alleges Mismanage.
mcnt and Seeks to Start Probe
Voted Down, Starts Suit.

Chicago, Oct. 2O.-With the annual
meeting of stockholders of the Illinois
Central Railroad company invaded by
half dozen deputy sheriffs armed
with subpoenas for the directors in a
$1O,O0O,OOO damage suit" and Attor-
ney Maxwell Edgar, representing six
stockholders, making sensational
charges of mismanagement, corruption
and graft against the officials of the
| company, the session was thrown into
an uproar.
The praecipe in the suit was filed in
the circuit court in the name Of
Jeanne Edgar, the wife of Attorney
Edgar, who owns two shares of Illinois
Central stock.
President Harahan was in the chair
when Attorney Edgar started the rum
pus by presenting resolution charg-
ing Encouragement in connection with
the recent car repair fraud disclosures.
He also declared that the road had vio-
lated the interstate commerce law In
giving rebates.
The resolution provided for COM
mittee to investigate the books of the
company and with power to engage
experts and report on the financial
methods and physical standing of the
road. In conclusion Edgar moved for
an adjournment for 80 days to await
the report of the committee.
Blewett Lee, general solicitor for
the road, replied to charges by fatty
denying that there had been any viola
ton of the interstate commerce law.
He said the only irregularity had been
in the car repair frauds, in which
few of the officials Of the road had
been involved, but that none of these
were now holding any official position.
The Edgar resolution and motion
was lost overwhelmingly.

DAVID B. HILL DEAD
AFTER BRIEF ILLNESS
Democratic Chieftain, Former United
States Senator and Governor Of
New York, Expires.

Albany, N. Y, Oct. 21.-David Ben.
nett Hill, ex-United States senator and
! former governor of New York, died
suddenly at Wolferts Roost, his coun-
try home. He was sixty-seven years
old.
About two weeks ago Mr.. Hill was
seized with a bilious attack while at
his law Office in this city, and although
his condition was not considered seri.
| GUS at the time his physician advised
him to remain at home for few days
until he recovered.
A cold developed, and a few days
later alarming reports of his condition
were circulated. These reports, how.
ever, were denied by friends; in fact,
the patient appeared to be on the road
to recovery until Wednesday night,
when he suffered a sinking spell,
which resulted in his death.
In 1882 he was elected lieutenant
governor on the same ticket with
Grover Cleveland and following Cleve-
lands election to the presidency of the
United States Mr.. Hill became gov
ernor, subsequently being elected for
two terms. He was governor for
| seven years.
In 1891 Mr.. Hill was elected United
States senator. In 1894 he was once
more the candidate Of the Democratic
party for governor, but was defeated
by Levi p. Morton, his Republican op-
ponent.
Mr.. Hill was the candidate of the
New York Democrats for the nomina-
ton for president in 1892, but Mr..
Cleveland was renominated for that
office.
In 1904 Mr. Hill was credited with
being the political sponsor of Alton
/ B. Parker, who was nominated for the
presidency by the Democratic national
convention at st. Louis.
Following that election Mr. Hill an
nOunced his permanent retirement
from politics, and since that time he
has devoted himself solely to the prac-
| tise of his profession.

TELL STORY OF ADVENTURES
Daring Aviators Fight 80 Miles With
out Food.-BIanckerts and Com
panion Reach Railroad
Almost Dead.

Montreal, Quebec. 1t is t h e
opinion of August Blanckerts, aid of
the balloon Germania, that Allan R.
Hawley and Augustus Post of New
York, pilot and aid respectively of the
America H., which left St. Louis last
Monday and from whom no word has
since been received, are fighting for
their lives through the wilderness of
northern Quebec.
Mr.. Blanckerts arrived here from
La Toque, Quebec, some distance
from the spot where the Germania
landed on Wednesday. He and Cap
tain Hugo Won Abercron had a des-
perate fight for their lives after COM
ing to earth. They were 80 hours
forging to the railway line with only
few crusts of bread for sustenance.
Their clothing was torn to shreds and
they were almost in a state of collapse
when they struck the railroad. There
they met construction gang and from
them learned that large yellow bal
loon had preceded the Germania over
practically the same route by half an
hour. The railroad men told Blanck-
erts that the other balloon was very
high up and maintained the same alti
tude until she passed out of sight to-
ward the Ungava wilderness.
Mr.. BIanckerts Is Positive.
Mr.. Blanckerts expressed the opin.
ion that the balloon was the America
II. The later report of the landing of
the Dusseldorf II. in the same region
explains to the satisfaction of many
the appearance of the first balloon,
but Mr.. Blanckerts has not changed
his opinion.
Colonel Theodore Schaeck, pilot of
the Helvetia, met Blanckerts here Sat-
urday night and after comparing notes
found that.the Germania had gone 100
miles farther than the Helvetia. The
dusseldorf H., according to unofficial
estimates, exceeded the distance rec
ord Of the Germania by about 70 miles,
The Germania came to earth at
11:15 a. m. Wednesday. At that time
there was still considerable ballast on
board, and the big balloon could have
kept in the air for several hours
longer, but Captain Won Abercron
feared that they were passing entirely
beyond the lines of civilization and it
was this that prompted him to land
Balloon May Be in Forest.
Colonel Schaeck of the Helvetia
came down for the same reason. He
had enough ballast to continue for 4S
hours, he said. 1t had been generally
believed that the balloons could not
have kept afloat later than Wednesday
night, but the evidence of Won Aber-
cron and Schaeck has exploded this
theory and if the America II. kept
them company on the journey into the
far North, her crew may still be strug-
Cling through the almost impossible
forests of the Ungava district, many
