RIGHT TO HOLD STOCK IS POINT
Cse
la
ItrooaM Before Superior Coort
Chicago Test In Points that
Were Not Before Finally
Determined.
CHICAGO, Feb. 29. Henry W. Lcman,
who was one ot the counsel for Stuyvesant
Fish In the recent Illinois Central case, de
cided by Judge Ball adversely to the con
tentions made by Mr. Fish, filed a bill In
the superior court-today seeking to enjoin
the Vnlon Pacific Railroad company and
-the Railroad Securities company Irom vot
ing 281,231 shares of Illinois Central stock
at the annual meeting to be held here
March 2.
Thirty-seven persons, among them Ed
ward II. Harrlman, In whose names the
2SX231 shares in question stand, are also
mads defendants to the suit,
X r rayer of the Petition.
The bill, which Is quiet lengthy, seeks the
following:
"That the Vnlon Pacific Railroad com
pany may be decreed to have not right,
power or authority to own 2K1.231 shares of
stock of the Illinois Central iKallroad com
pany, or any one or moro of said shares,
and that the claimed or pretended bwner
shlp of said shares or of any one or more
of them by said company, may be decreed
to be illegal, ultra vires and null and Void.
"That the Union PaAfic Railroad com
pany may be decreed to have no right,
power or authority to own all the stock of
said railroad securities or any one or more
shares of the stock of said company,
claimed or I retended ownership of said
shares may be decreed to be Illegal, ultra
vires, null and void.
That the Union Pacific company be de
creed to have no right to vote 281.231 shares
of the stock of the Illinois Central Rail
road company at the meeting of the stork
holders of the railroad company to be held
March 2. or at any adjournment thereof,
or at any other meeting of the stockhold
ers of said company, and that any attempt
to vote the same at said meeting or at
any adjournment thereflf, or at any other
meeting of the stockholders of said com
pany may be declare to be Illegal.
That the Illinois Central Railroad com
pany may be, by the decree of this court,
perpetually enjoined and restrained from
permitting the Union Pacific Railroad com
pany and the Railroad Securities company
to vote any one or more of said 281,431
shares of stock of tho Illinois Central com
pany at the meeting to be held on March 2,
or at any adjournment thereof, either by
any officer of the said Union Pacific Rail
road company or of tne Railroad Securities
company, or by any of Its attorneys, so
licitors, agents, employes or representa
tives, or by its other proxies
That the ownership and holding of the
stock of said Illinois Central Railroad com
pany by the' said Union Pacific Railroad
company or by said Railroad Securities
company or by any other corporation or
corporations, either In Us own name or
names, or In the name or names of any
person orpersons for them or for any of
them, may be decreed to be illegal, ultra
vires and null and void.
That this court may make such orders
and decree herein as to the d!sporUn of
said 21,231 shares of stork of Illinois Cen
tral Railroad company as this court shall
deem proper and as shall be agreeable to
equity.
Mr. Leman was asked the object oi tne
filing of the new bill.
Seeks to Test Ills Views.
"I gave the advice," he said, "on which
"the original bill was filed. When the in
junction was refused Mr. Fish and his as
sociates determined not to continue tne
litigation because It would takd. two or
three years to reach a result. I may have
been wrong in my advice, or I may be
right. I am a stockholder in the Illinois
Central, and a citizen of Illinois, and I
want to find out whether the Illinois Cen
tral and every other railroad In this state
can be dominated by the Union Pacific. I
am backed by no man, although a number
of other stockholders have asked to Join
me In having this question determined. I
do not expect Judge Ball to reverse his
decision denying the injunction, but the
question of voting that stock Is very impor
tant and ought to be determined, ana tne
court of last resort will be given an oppor
tunity to pass upon It. I have money
enough to pay the expense of the litigation
and I am determined to go to the end with
the case and secure an adjudication which
will be final."

WASHINGTON, Feb. 29. A veiled charge
was made by Mr. Mann of Illinois In the
house today during tho consideration of the
army appropriation bill that some govern
ment official or employe had yielded to
the influence of a land syndicate with the
view to selling to tho government a tract
of land near Washington, D. C, for a
target range. An appropriation of $'5O,0C0
for 6.000 acres was provided for, which Mr.
Mann denounced as far beyond Its value.
He thought there had been undue tempta
tion held out to somebody. He at once
aroused the Ire of Mr. Young of Michigan,
who, springing to the defense of the com
mittee on military affairs, Indignantly
denied that any member of It had been ap
proached by a.ny one but the secretary of

was stricken out on a point of order.

By threats of disinheritance, by entreaties
and by a series of plots and counterplots
they were separated, though the marrluge
license had been procured the day before
and all the elopement wedding arrange
ments made.
John W. Eckhart, who was considerably
exercised over the affair, at flrBt professed
Ignorance oT the details. He asserted that
his son was in Chicago, although he and
Mrs. Eckhart went to a railroad station to
see the boy safely started west.

live and young Eckhart at once, renewed
his attentions to her.

herpes, acne, scaly scalp, complexion blem
ishes, Itching feet, plies, etc., which re
quire but a small quantity to cure.
To overcome this, and In response to
