Chicago Voters "nvor Ownership. Chicago. April 1 Under the result of the city election held Tuesday, in which the question of municipal own ership of the street railways was ‘he vital issue, the city of Chicago call proceed to acquire and control the railways, but cannot operate them. At the same time, the voters, while declaring that the city shall not pro ce< d to operate the railroads, declare that as a question of public policy P would be desirable for the city to do so. Although president of a railroad and to the tub | with a reputation in American financial circles for twenty years or more, Mr. Fish was an inconspicuous person last month in comparison with what he is now. By withdrawing from the Mu tual Life's self investigating committee because of its failure to investigate ac cording to liis ideas and later by resign ing ids position as trustee and consent ing to head a policy holders’ campaign against the powerfully entrenched ad ministration of the company he has grown to be, for the time at least, the most talked of American. Not only at home are his doings heralded daily. In England, France and Germany the Mutual Life's policy holders are or ganizing for his support. Whether he wins or loses he Is to be the central figure in a contest of direct interest to more than 000,000 men and women holding contracts with the Mutual Life and of interest indirectly to millions of house, there to speud the evening read ing or studying economics or poring over “railroad literature.” But Mr. Fish does not choose the city in any of Its aspects as the best place lor leisure hours. It Is a favorite saying with him that a man must often get “a sight of the hills” and a breath of fresh air in order to thiuk and work as he should. Whenever he lias time or when he is couniug over a specially hard problem of business be likes to go to Garrison, even though he can stay only half a day or through Sunday. The estate at Garrison, covering 500 acres, was acquired by Mr. Fish's fa ther, the late Hamilton Fish, secretary of state in President Grant’s cabinet, on the day Fort Sumter was fired upou. There the present head cf the family raises sheep and chickens, which are his hobbies- that is, next to his dogs. These dogs, a Scotch terrier, a Great Pane, a collie ami a spaniel, are his constant companions when he walks, 000,000 was buried during the war be- | tween Peru and Chile. • Mrs. Hitchcoek has access to a map showing the exact locatiou of the treas ure, but nevertheless there will be some I difficulty in locating it. she says, be cause of a landslide on the island which has covered up mauy of the landmarks. Another difficulty to be overcome is the presence on the Island of a strong guard of soldiers of the Costa Rican 1 govern incut, which claims possession of the island. Mrs. Hitchcock, who was interviewed at the Hotel Cambridge iu New York, is an author and lecturer. She recently returned from a successful mining ven ture in the Klondike. “I first heard of the treasure on the Island of Cocos from Admiral Palliser i of Ui6 Bullish navy,” she said. “In i 1000 he gave mo a farewell dinner on his flagship, the Imperieuse, at Victo ria, B.

They say that when Stuyvesant Fish starts to do anything he is sure to do it well, whether it be in railroading or in some new line. There is a story about him that illustrates his adapta bility, and, though the undertaking in this instance was a trifling one, it fur nished an index to his character. Not many years ago, through *o fault of his own, he was taxed with the duty of administering an estate a little dis tance north of New York. In ihe course of time certain personal prop erties had io be sold, and included place. Outside of bis tramping with the" dogs at Garrison, he likes duck shoot ing best. With parties of friends lie occasionally leaves his work for a hunt. Not long ago he was’ looking for ducks iu company with Judge James R. Pill, who is uow one of his legal advisers in the Mutual Life contro versy. Mr. Fish was liorn in New York city | on June i 24, 1851, and during his boy hood was schooled by the same tutor who taught William Waldorf Astor. The two boys were friends as early as Mr. Fish’s ninth year, an interest ing fact In view of the report Unit Mr. Astor has taken sides against the Pea body administration In the Mutual Life fight.

One of these, to show ids appreciation, produced a map which, la* sgld, had been handed down to him by ids father and showed the location of the treas ure. His father had obtained it from the only survivor of the expedition which buried the treasure. All but two members of the expedition had been killed, and one of these was drowned while leaving the Island in a small boat. The other was tried for his murder, but managed to escape with the map. On his deathbed he gave the map to the father of the ndner, who had befriended him. The possessor of the map is now living in New England and is ready to start with the expedition I am organizing.

After causing the sale to be advertised Mr. Fish journeyed to the scene on the appointed day. A crowd of farmers from the vicinity had gathered around the building. “Where’s the auctioneer?” some one 1 asked. “Here I am,” responded the railroad president. • Jumping on a wagon, he proceeded to sell tools, scrap iron, bellows and a couple of dilapidated vehicles.
