THE TERM "LIAR" V. PASSED AND FISH TOOK POINTED AND

PHYSICAL EXCEPTION TO THE

TERM.

New York, Aug. 20. After a meeting

of the board of directors of the Illinol3

Central railroad had broken up in confusion Wednesday, Stuyvesant Fish, former president of the company, and J. T. Harahan, his successor, engaged In a heated altercation, which terminated in a violent personal encounter between them. Wall street reports circulated late in the afternoon were to the effect that Mr. Fish struck Mr. Harahan with hi3 fist, and that the two men clutched each other, stumbled over a chair and fell to the floor together before they could be separated by their colleagues of the board, who were horrified at the sensational conclusion.

uirctivr uivci nia ci 8iun, ,

One of the directors who attended the meeting said that no actual blows had been struck, no blood had been spilled and no furniture broken. "The-fact is," he said, "that Mr. Fish lost his temper and probably re-gretted-hfa hasty action later. He did not strike Mr. Harahan, but he siezed Mm violently, at the same time abusing him vigorously by word of mouth. The board room was soon cleared and there the incident closed." Mr. Fish is a giant physically ,tHo

stands several Inches more than six

feet in height, tipping the beam probably at 22) pounds without carrying

any superfluous flesh, and prides him

self upon his physical prowess. Mr. Harahan, who succeeded Mr. Fish in the presidency of the Illinois Central when the latter had been ousted after an incumbency of many years' duration, is a somewhat smaller man physically, though he could probably "weigh in" at ino pound3. and his broad shoulders suggest plenty of muscular power and vitality. Turns Guns on Harahan. It was the regular monthly meeting of the directorate of the Illinois Central that brought together nine members of the board. Those who attended besides Mr. Harahan and Mr. Fish, were Cornelius Vanderbllt, Robert W.

Goelet, Charles A. Peabody, Alexander S. Hackstaff, Charles M. Beach, Walter Luttgen and lames De Wolf Cutting. Certain routine business was disposed of summarily and then Mr. Fish rose and. produced a formidable typewritten document which appeared to be in the form of a voluminous preamble and resolution. Mr. Fish proceeded to read a paper which severely criticised the present management of the road. The document arraigned Mr. Harahan in rather severe terms, it is declared and was proceeding to go into a discussion of certain accounts at great length when some of the board members who are In sympathy with the Harriman-Hara-han element became restive and suggested that as several members were obliged to keep oth-jr engagements during the afternoon, Mr. Fish should place his resolution on file anJ suspend its further reading. Protest Made by Fish. Mr. Fish protested against being muzzled and was going on with the reading. Mr. Harahan, who sat at the Lead of the table as the presiding officer, was visibly annoyed and was evidently making an effort to keep cool, as his predecessor in stentorian tones went on to criticise his admin

istration. Mr. Goelet moved to adjourn.

President Harahan hastily the motion carried.

Portland, Me., Aug. 29. An effort to pass a resolution censuring the president of the United States produced a sensation in the final session of the annual meeting of the American Bar Association Wednesday. The Kesolution was introduced by George Whitelock of Baltimore, and criticised the president for commenting upon the trial of the beef cases in Chicago a year ago and adversely criticising

the presiding judge and his rulings

The resolution met with disapprov

few minutes disorder ruled. President Parker repeatedly asked Mr. Whitelock to withdraw his resolution but the latter insisted that it be acted upon. During the attempt to dispose of it Joseph B.

DISCOUNT

Mr. Fish stood glowering at the president of the road and Mr. Haranan half rose as though to leave the room. Pointing to the retreating figures of;Mr. Peabody and others, Mr. Fish turned full upon Mr. Harahan end cried: "They have you in Iteir power and you know it. You are only their miserable tool." Mr. Harahan turned white with anger, rose and faced the towering form of Mr. Fish and retorted: "Any man who says I am the tool of another is a liar." Harahan Seized by Foe. Mr. Harahan's own account of what followed was to the effect that Mr.

Fish leaped across to the head of the board table, seized him aggressively by the neck and shoulders and shook Mm as a terrier shakes a rat. Mr. Harahan made what defense he could and the two men lurched about the board room, clinched, until some of the directors, who had sot gone out managed to separate them.

The event of the convention was the annual address by British Ambassador James Bryce, on "The Influence of National Character and Historical Environment on the Development of the Common Law." Ambassador Bryce and party were given an ovation when they took seats on the platforra. President Parker in a few words complimentary to the ability of the distinguished speaker introduced the ambassador. He was greeted with cheers, the audience of 2.000 people standing for fully a minute while cheering and applauding. . Mr. Bryce's subject was the common law, which he characterized as being the common possession of the United States and England and a bond of sympathy between the two peoples whose value can hardly be overrated. It is the result of events, he said, as well as of the mental and moral qual-

A bulwark of English freedom, he said, had been the right of every citizen to be tried by his peers, but "we in England have no longer that confidence in the wisdom of a jury in certain classes of civil actions which we once had, and the tendency of recent years has been to narrow the sphere of its employment.

any further interest in my property or

my life time. I direct therefore that

any and all money, stocks, bonds or

property of any kind which I have

heretofore or shall hereafter give my

said wife and place the same in her

Mr. Westcott in the will directs that

under the terms of the ante-nuptial

contract shall be paid to her in cash

or in good reliable bonds or securities.

Wants No Controversy.

Speaking of his desire to have the es

tate settled without any controversy,

Mr. Westcott says In the will: "It is my wish and purpose in making this my

will, to avoid any contention or misun

my said wife as to the provisions of

this my will, and we have a satisfactory understanding between us as to the

same and as to the provisions I have made for her, both as to our marriage contract and the additional gifts I have

already made and purpose making her

in the future."

The will provides that any amounts or property Mr. Westcott has advanced his children shall be charged against

them when the estate is settled. In

regard to this the will reads:

"Before any distribution is made

among my children I direct that advancements which I have charged

against them as advancements to equal

trust, to be ascertained by charging against the same the advancements charged against him and also any charges against his children or either

THE THIRD HOUSE.

Legislative Annex of the Special Interests In Congress. The third house, as the lobby Is sometimes called, is the legislative annex of the special Interests. It is the house of epeclal representatives, and its membership Is a curious study in the widely different. Its meeting place is the lobby and committee rooms of the nation's capitol, the hotel rctunda, the lawyer's office, the street, the banquet room, the little back 'room, the bar, the road house, the home, the brothel anywhere the legislator may be found and personally approached. That is the object of a lobby personal contact with the people's representatives and the influence upon legislation worked thereby. If legislators were perfect, there would be no lobby. If they were perfectly wise, there would be no occasion for the lobbyist who desires "to inform" them; if perfectly honest, there would be no occasion for the lobbyist who desires to "make it worth while;" if perfectly patriotic, there would be no occasion for the lobbyist who desires for himself "a little personal favor" at the people's expense. The existence of a lobby is premised on human frailty. It Is present to prey on human weakness, to warp the action of the legislative body by appeal to vanity, ignorance, cupidity or fear.
