Minority stockholders of the Chesa-
peake & Ohio Railroad. organized as a
committee. with headquarters at Rich

Commerce Commission against the re
cent proposal Of that railroad to COM
plete its contemplated merger with the

Sweringen of Cleveland and their as
sociates. who constitute majority
among stockholders OF several other
railroads in addition to the Chesapeake

The last move of the Van Sweringen
interests was to ask the commission to
allow the Chesapeake g. Ohio to pay
$13333 per share for approximately
I74.000 shares of Pere Marquette COM
mon stock, now owned by the Nickel
Plate Railroad.
The minority protest today said that
this purchase by the Chesapeake &
Ohio would largely add profit to the
Van Sweringen interests which con-
troll the Nickel Plate. The protest also
asserted that the price On Pere Mar
quette stock was in excess Of its real
value" and denied that the transaction

PLAYER; MATCH IS HALTED
Miss Elizabeth CARRIER Badly
Shocked on Columbia
Court.
Four Entrants Wreathed in
Sparks as Lightning Flashes
From Dry Sky.

A bolt of lightning which crashed
down out of dry sky, wreathed four
woman tennis players momentarily in
flaming sparks yesterday afternoon at
the Columbia Country Club and almost
upset the District woman's tournament.
Miss Elizabeth CARRIER, one of the play
ers, was so badly shocked that she was
forced TO postpone play in her match.
The lightning seemed to ground be-
tween two courts at the club and per-
sons standing many yards away felt the
shock Miss Mary Duffy, Miss CARRIER
opponent, declared Miss CARRIER seemed
framed in sparks for an instant. Miss
CARRIER. very pale, left the courts and
received permission from the referee to
hold over the match until today.
Misses Mary Hall and Louise Omwake,
on the next court. also experienced the
same sensation as Miss CARRIER. al
though not in the same degree. Both
declared they felt tingling sensation
from head to foot
The bolt yesterday was the second
which has struck near the club during
the past week Last Saturday a tree
opposite the club grounds was struck,
temporarily putting out the lights and
impairing telephone service.

Seal Hunter Talks Seal"

It requires a great deal of ingenuity
on the part of the Eskimo seal hunter
to get near his quarry. He must get
to the 1eeward so that the seal will
not scent him, and then he must crawl
carefully, and when within few hun
dred feet of the seal he gets fiat on the
ice. The seal takes the Eskimo, who is
able to talk Seal' perfectly, to be one
of its kindred, and indeed there is a
great deal of resemblance between the
two, for seal and hunter are similarly
clothed, and the Eskimo, living largely
upon the flesh and oil of the seal,' is
similarly odorous AS the two lie there
upon the ice most amusing sort of
conversation is kept UP between them.
The seal makes remark and flips
his tail The Eskimo replies and makes
corresponding gesture with his foot.
At the same time he throws himself
a little forward. The seal soon has
something further to say, and again
f1ips his TAIL The Eskimo replies as
before, and still further closes up the
distance between them.
