Chicago, 111., July 22.—A system of
graft and corruption in railroad cir-
cles, by means of which the stockhol-
ders were defrauded out of hundreds
of thousands of dollars, may be
brought to light as a result of the
death of I. G. Rawn, president of the
Monon. Repeated statements of men
high in Illinois Central circles are to
the effect that Rawn was seriously
involved, and suicided to escape the
blame, are causing high excitement.
The railroad supply men say that
the railroad business methods need
overhauling in the courts. They say
that they can not sell a.dollar's worth
of goods to the railroads without
making it worth while for the higher
officials.
Rawn's funeral was held this af-
ternoon from Winnet. Rev. Pag<
officiated. Many prominent railroad
ers attended.
