Harrlrnan has at last realized the fulfillment of 111 plan to eontrr' a railroad " oceans.

Or., from the Or to the Gulf of Mexico and from v to the rarifle again, until witnin a months eastern terminals of the Harrlrt. system were at Kansas City, Omaha nt. New Orleans. The first Important atep In the direction in securing the desired outlet on the At lantic seaboard for the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific railroad la believed to have ben taken by Mr. Harrlrnan aeveral weeks ago. when It- was reported that one of .the roads under his control had taken over the control of the Baltimore & Ohio by the purchase of a block of 400.000 shares of the Baltimoro Ohio company, which was gold by the Pennsylvania Railroad euinpsny. Thl would give Mr. Harrlrnan a rtfute from Chicago and St. .Louis to Bal timore and New York. To complete the ambitious proposition for a continuous line from ocean to ocean It waa necessary only te connect the western terminals of the Baltimore it Ohio with the eastern termi nals of the Southern Faoiftc and I'nlon Pa cific. 'and this purpose the Illinois Central wervea amply. Its line from Omaha to Chi cago ties together the Union Pacific and Baltimore it Ohio, while the Illinois Cen tral blanch from Chicago to New Orleans gives the fiouthorn Faclflo entrance Into Chicago and the seaboard. 'Taken together, this ayatem. If unified, puta under one control more than 23,000 mile of track, cii nil all red at more than i,m.(ino.m. "So Votes Against Harahan. .Tames T.

Directors Explain Action. .Shortly before the meeting the eight di rectors who voted for Mr. Harahan sent h letter to. President Fish giving their rea sons for refusing: to vote for his re-election. The letter declared that In June last with out consulting the other members of the hoard of directors, Mr. Fish issued a circu lar to the stockholders requesting proxies . for the annual election. At the next meet ing of the board it was declared Mr. Fea- body offered a resolution that a committee of directors. Including Messrs. Astor, Auch Incloss,. Goeiet, Luttgen and Vanderbllt. bn appointed to request proxies from stock holders for the annual meeting. It was de clared that Mr. Fish defeuted such action by leaving the room and breaking a qua rum. The board then ad.tourned and during . the following week It was declared Messrs. Fish, Peabody and Harrlrnan signed an agreement that the successor to W.

T3; WEETING 0FCHURCH UNION F.plseaaal Organisation -Will Pretest Against tltra-Llberal Itteraaees af Broad Chorchaoea. BOSTON, Nov. 7. The Clerical X'nlon for the Maintenance and Defense of Catholic Principles, a national organization In the IDplscopal church, at a meeting here today decided not to permit ultra-liberal utter ances of a few of the "broad church-' clergy in various parts of the country to be made from time to time without protest. The sentiment of the union was that there should be more activity against what was termed "error In the pulpit and In the writ lug of arcleslastlcs." It was voted to observe the twentieth an niversary of the union, which falls on Jan uary 30, with a solemn high mass at the Church of St. Mary the Virgin, New York City. Right Rev. Oeorge Franklin Seymour, bishop of Springfield. III., was chosen to preach the anniversary sermon. Before the business session today a sol emu high mass of requiem for the repose of the soul of Bishop Isaac Lea Nicholson of Milwaukee, late president of the union. was sung at the Church of the Advent. I From a Staff Correspondent.) WASHINGTON. Nov. -7. (Special Telegrams-President Roosevelt today accepted the resignation of Secretary K. A. Hitch cock of the Interior department, to tnke effect March 4, 1!I7. He simultaneously announced his purpose to promote Janice It. Outfield of Ohio, now commissioner of corporations, to the office of secretary of the Interior. . Sccrrtary Hitchcock voluntarily tendered his resignation becnuse of falling lieiilth. The president promptly accepted his resig nation, for he himself on several occasions within the last year, observing Mr. Hitch cock's alarming physical condition, had suggested to him the advisability of re linquishing his burdensome cabinet duties. F.ach suggestion of this sort, however, wns nut aside hv the secretary, who was de termined to see the finish of the more Im portant prosecutions of land thieves who had lecn run down under his direction. Mr. Hitchcock's family has been more concerned about his health than the presi dent, and it Is well known that for the lust year his wife and daughters have per sistently urged him to give up the cares and worries of office and take a rest; but even the entreaties of his wife were dis regarded, until now the secretary, who is much more aged than when he entered the cabinet. Is literally compelled to yield, while his every desire is to remain to the end of Mr. Roosevelt's administration. The countless prosecutions and convic tions of land thieves, to say nothing of compelling cattle barons to haul down their fences, which have been brought about in the last two years, bear evidence of Secre tary Hitchcock's hard work. His combats with politicians, his controversies with sub ordinate government officials, and his con tests with sonie of the shrewdest attorneys In the land, have all tended to Impair his health, until today he la on the verge of physical collapse. Richards Follows Chief. Land Commissioner Richards, who will re tire with. Hitchcock, olao resigned volun tarily. Since he succeeded Blnger Her mann, Mr. Richards has ,had Innumerable personal sorrows and afflictions heaped upon him, and It has been known for some time that his duty here has not been pleaa ant. His thorough knowledge of public land matters, his unquestioned integrity. an jai s western nerve, have enabled him to re tt efficient service in salving many per- iHll: plexing problems left over by commissioner Hermann, and he retires from office with much credit. Richards' successor has not yet been chosen. C'aptala Hacker Ordered .orh. Captain Theodore B. Hacker, commissary st Omaha, will proceed to Nellgh and Val entine, Neb., and Strugla. 8. D.. for the pur pose of Inspecting subsistence supplies, re-turnlng-to Omaha upon he completion of this duty. . .-; ' Moody Goes to Supreme Hecch. The president toduy announced .the ap pointment of. Attorney General William Henry Moody of Massachusetts as Justice of the supreme court of the United States to succeed Justice Henry Billings Brown, who retired some time ago. Mr. Moody has filled the office of attorney general since July 1, 1904; previous to that time he had served for more than two years as secretary of the navy. He had rep resented his state In the fifty-rourth, fifty-fifth and fifty-seventh congresses. It Is generally expected that Mr. Moody will retire from the Department of Justice the latter part of December. Refnrna In I'rnctleally All the Irlets af state Are" Meaner. Ula. First District.

SWITCHMEN REJECT PROPOSAL Employes af Railroads , F.nterlaa Chicago Refaae to Accept Offer to Arbitrate. CHICAGO, Nov. 7.-Tho Switchmen's union today declined the proposition made by the managers of the railroads entering Chicago to arbitrate the demands of the men for an Increase In wages of 10 cents an hour. The railroad managers then of fered the men an Increase of i emits an hour and proposed arbitration of the ques tion whether or not the men should re- celve the 10-cent Increase. The men took the proposition of the em ployers under consideration and It is ex pected a reply will be returned tomorrow. The general impression tonight among both the employers snd the switchmen was that a compromise would be reached and that a strike of the 20, (XX) switchmen employed on. the roads Interested In the controversy would be averted.

Nov. 7. Returns are lnconi plete, but sufficient to show the election of the entire republican state, congressional and Judicial tickets and a republican ma Jorly of thirty or more on Joint ballot In the next legislature, which will elect a senator to succeed Thomas M.

Henry A. Butchtel, candidate for governor, and their other nominees for state offices. The democrats concede the election of tne republican ticket, but claim the plurali ties will be under 10.000. The vote In Den ver governor Is: Butchtel (rep.), 23.6X8; Adams (dem.), 11,178; Llndsey (ind.), 4,750; Haywood (soc), 4.3SS. Buchtel's plurality, 12.515. In a lata extra edition the News (dem.) concedes the election ot Buchtel and all olher candidates on the republican state ticket, with the possible exception of Chief Justice William H. Gabbert. Gabbert was scratched In every county, but some of the republicans who cut him voted for William P. Seeds, while others voted for George K. lUrtstcln. and thus the opposition was divided. Hsd It hen possible to concen trate all the antl-Oabbert scratches on one democratic, candidate the chief justice would have been overwhelmed. In the San Juan country, western Colo rado, the socialists made inroads Into the democratic ranks. In northern Colorado the democrats made Important gains, but 1m Aniniajt and Huerfano counties, in which are located the largo southern coal mining camps, gave the customary repub lican majorities of 1,000 and 1,800, respec tively.

Nov. 7 According to the latest returns received throughout the state, Indiana went about Si'.OOo republican In yesterday's election. The democrats gained two congressmen, one from the Eighth and one from the Eleventh district making the delegation nine republican and four democrat. Congressman John C. Chancy (rep.). In the riecond district, hs a plurality of about 3C0. The Twelfth dis trict shows Clarence C. Gllhanis (rep.) elected with a plurality of about 300. The Thirteenth district elected Congressman Abraham L. Brick (rep ) by a plurality of 255. These were the three districts In doubt. The legislature will b republican on joint ballot by about thirty. SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 7. The returns from the Interior of the state are coming In very slowly and It is yet Impossible to give exact figures, except from small pre cincts and cities where voting machines were used. The republican state central committee claims that GUIett has been elected governor by at least 10,000 plurality over Bell, democrat, and considerably more over Lnngdoti, the Independence league candidate. At democratic headquarters this claim Is not admitted and It is as serted that when full returns arc jccolvcd they Will show that Bell has been success ful by a small margin. As an Indication of how the vote Is running, returns from S22 precincts out of 2.174 In the state give Gillctt t2.S2fl; Bell, 37,942, and Langdon 10, 221 votes. In making their estimates the republican managers have counted on iO.iKiO or more plurality for Glllett in Los Angeles county, but If the ratio shown by returns from 13ti out of 24 precincts received hcte Is not changed his plurality there will not exceed 4.5uO. It Is asserted by tho repub lican county committee that these returns are from the smaller precincts and that thoBe yet to be heard from will show high pluralities for Gillctt. That the entire con gressional delegation of eight will lie re publican now seems certain, late returns from the Second district, where Duncan E. McKlnley, republican, was being closely pressed by W, A. Beard, democrat, giving the former a good lead. The legislature will be very strongly re publican In both branches. All the supreme Justices elected are republican, but for pre siding Judge of tho appellate court the nico between Carroll Cook, republican, and James A. Cooper, democrat, is so close that the result cannot be predicted. A number of constitutional amendments were voted on, but their fate Is yet In doubt. SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 7Beven hun dred and ninety-one precincts out of 2,471 In the state, minus Los Angeles and Ala n edn counties, which are usually heavily republican, give Glllett (rep.) for governor, 1.148; Hell (dem.). 4n719; Langdon, Inde pendence league, 17"3. 2iiJ.

Today's returns " ! confirm the estimates made last night that '.a ' Governor Gooding, republican candidate for ,.F ; re-election, has carried the state by a ' ! majority of somewhat more than 7,000. The 'fl . rest of the state ticket has a majority of . F probably 5,000 more, with one exception, tne candidate for secretary of state, who was cut considerably. Deilulle returns show that the republicans have thirteen of the twenty-one members of the state senate and thirty-five of the fifty-one members of the house. This will give a majority of twenty. four on Joint ballot. Several scats are In doubt and are quits as likely to fall to one side as the other, though private dispatches claim that four of the five members from Kootenai county will be republican. SALT LAKE CITY. Nov. 7. A special to tho Herald from Boise, Ida., says that Gov ernor Gooding is re-elctcd by a plurality of from 7,0 to 9,'ioU. The legislature will contain 48 republicans and 24 democrats.
