w. A. HARTMAN MAY
STAY ON ONE BOARD
With Vanderbilt and Armour
Allowed by L. c. G. to
Select Road.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-W. Averill
Hartman was required by to-days order
OF the Interstate Commerce Commission
to resign his place as director of the
Illinois Central Railroad and subsidiary
lines or of the Baltimore and Ohio. Mr..
Hartman might retain. the commission
said, all OF his places as director and
officer of the Union Pacific system and
its affiliated corporations, but could not
hold similar authority In the corporate
organization of the other two railroad
systems named.
Cornelius Vanderbilt tho commission
also held to-day. might retain his
directorate in the Delaware and Hudson
but must resign from the board of the
Illinois Central or from the board of
the Missouri Pacific.
Both men were given thirty days in
which to make the selection of the places
which they wish to hold.
| The commission last week issued a
\ blanket order allowing holders Of more
than one directorate to continue in their
places until further orders of the COM
mission. which general permission was
modified to-day so far as Mr.. Hartman
and Mr.. Vanderbilt. were concerned by
]. Ogden Armour, head Of the Chicago
Meat Packing Corporation. also was
| denied by another order of the Inter-
state Commerce Commission authority
to hold places on the board OF directors
of the Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Paul
Railroad and on the Illinois Central and
Its subsidiary corporations. The COM
mission ruled that Mr.. Armour must
signify in thirty days which roads he
would prefer.
George F. Baker. Sr., will continue a
director of the Erie Railroad under an
amended order of the Interstate Com
merce Commission, 1t was stated yester-
day at the offices of the company.
The original order of the commission
dealing with his railroad directorships
allowed him to remain as chairman Of
the Central Railroad of New Jersey and
in addition to be a director of one of the
following roads: New York Central and
it's subsidiaries, Delaware. Lackawanna
and Western, Erie and Lehigh Valley
railroads.
He responded by going further than
the commission required by resigning
from the directorates of all the afore-
mentioned companies except the New
York Central and its subsidiaries. AT the
request of the Erie Railroad the COM
mission reheard the case last week with
the result that, under second ruling,
Mr.. Baker is allowed to remain a direc-
tor of that road, in addition to the New
York Central and the Jersey Central, If
he desires.
