Washington, July 20.—President Hustis of the New Haven railroad, Moorefield Story, general counsel for the system; President Hadley of Yale university and T. DeWitt Cuyler, all directors of the road, conferred to- day with Attorney-General McRey- nolds and Assistant Attorney-General Gregory, in the hope of reaching some agreement for the " dissolution of the New Haven merger without an anti-trust suit.

No intimations have been given of plans the committee would offer which would prevent an anti- trust suit. Attorney-General Mec- Reynolds was ready to accept any proposals in sympathy with the agrec- ment made some time ago for a peace- ful dissolution of the New Haven, but he was not likely to consent to any- thing else. After an hour’s conference the New Haven directors left the department to confer among themselves while the attorney-general took the proposals under advisement. B Position Not Changed. It was understood that the direc- tors had not changed their position in regard to the disposition of the Boston and Maine stock owned by the New Haven, which has proved a stumbling block to a settlement. They were said to have suggested that the question of the Boston and Maine disposition be held in abeyance for the time being, with the idea that the legislature of Massachusetts which has imposed a condition upon the sale of the stock may remove the con- dition at some future session.

The morning hours were ' mostly spent in trips to the shores while in the afternoon the big gathering was on the green. The parade will ! take place tomorrow forenoon, while“ later in the day athletic games will be held at Savin Rock. EXCITING LANDINGS. Balloonists in Race for Grand Prize of French Club Land in England.

His wife and daughter at Samp Mortar Cottage, Fairfield Beach, know of no reason why he should absent himself and fear accident or foul play. . * E were much disgruntled the | WOE 70 DEMOCRATS IF REPUBLICANS WIN Wholcsale Inquiry of Wilson Re- gme, if G. 0. P. Capture House. Washington, July 20.—A wholesale investigation of the democratic ad- ministration is promised by the re- publicans if they secure control of the house of representatives at the elec- tion this fall. While the republicans realize there is a big “if”” in the way, nevertheless they are making their preliminary plans for such an investi- gation, with the idea, of course, of using whatever ammunition they may unearth to their own benefit in the 1916 presidential campaign. In short, they propose to treat the democrats to a dose of their own investigating medicine. | Their plan to conduct a wholesale inquiry into democratic methods ex- plains ‘'why the republicans are so anxious to secure control of the house. They do not expect to do any legis- lating, because they know it would be futile, There are some republi- cans who think control of the next house would be bad strategy; but the bulk of the leaders here want control | because of the opportunity it will af- ford to put the 1916 campaign on its feet, Not Wild Dream. The national republican congres- sional committee, which has been at work in a preliminary way for sev- eral months, looks upon the political outlook through rose-colored glasses. It will require the winning of seventy- four seats now held by democrats to wrest control from them, but the re- publican managers are producing fig- ures to show that it is by no means a wild dream to expect such a change, and they are actually figuring that they will do it. The investigating business was worked to the fullest limit by the democrats when they gained control of the house in the sixty-second con- gress, during the last two years of President Taft. Every one of the standing committees on expenditures in the various government depart- ments was galvanized into life after years of somnolence. Made Things Uncomfortable. Each committee went to work on its particular department investiga- ting anything and everything that promised campaign material. In ad- dition, there were two or three spe- | cial committees at work making things uncomfortable for the repub- lican heads of departments. So far as actual scandals went, the results of the democratic investiga- tions were meagre. But they relied upon the cumulative effects upon the public mind of the wholesale inquiry, the very idea of an investigation be- ing calculated to inspire the suspicion that there was something wrong somewhere. This is exactly what the republicans propose to do, if they can secure con- trol of the committees by winning the house. Shall Publish Results. They will put every executive, from the state department to the labor de- partment, on the grill, and will take particular care that the results shall i be published broadcast. They will delve into democratic appointments ! and democratic patronage, as well as policies, and will make a great noise over democratic extravagance all along the line. e of their chief features, and the easiest, | because government appropriations have increased by leaps every year. The republican congressional man- agers, while not in possession of ple- | thoric funds, claim they have enough to cover the country this fall in an ef- fective manner, and they predict that the job of winning the house will be carried through to success, despit> the apparently Herculean nature of the task. RECEIVER APPOINTED. Fuirfield Building Concern's Books in i a Muddled Conditio | New Haven, Conn., July 20.—Elliott W.

BASEBALL STRIKE Players May Take Drastic 'Action if National Commission Refuses to Accede to Kraft Case. New York, July 20.—Drastic tion, possibly a strike or walkout of baseball players in the American and National leagues is contemplated by the Baseball Players’ fraternity, cording to a statementyby President Fultz, in case the national commis- sion refuses to accede to the terms of an ultimatum sent it by the fra- ternity in the case of Player Kraft of the Newark Internationals.

It was reported that the commis- sion "had been given until July reply to the players' demands.

AVERTING CAR SHORTAGE, Prevent Danger. ¢ Washington, July 20.—Investiga- tions by the department of agricul- | ture’s office of markets indicate that shippers and carriers are ing more closely this.year to avert a car shortage in the movement of the country’s 930,000,000 bushel estimat- | ed wheat crop. While it would take 524,000 cars to move the entire es- timated production, only about fifty- eight per cent. of the crop usually is shipped out of the country where it is grown. On that basis it would require approximately 423,000 cars to carry this season’'s shipments. The sentiment is by no means unanimous among country elevators, says the de- partment, that there will be a car shortage. Expressions from terminal elevator points indicate there will be a shortage in all states, OPERATION PROVES FATAL, Stamford, Conn., July 20.—James McCutcheon, a well known linen merchant of New York city, who was operated upon for appendicitis on Fri- day, died this afternoon as a result of the operation.

Komugata Maru, | was received by government officiale ! last night, The steamer arrived three months ago, with 350 Hindus, who | claimed, as British subjects, the right to land in Canada. The Canadian immigration officials i refused them admission on the ground that they were undesirable pérsons. Several times the Hindus attempted to , reach shore, but were prevented by guard boats which the Canadian au- thorities placed on watch over the ship. Court Upholds Government. The courts sustained the position taken by the government and the | Japanese captain of the steamer was given until 6 o'clock Saturday after- noon to sail for India with his load of Hindus, The report as given out by the im= migration department states: “Shortly after the . captain Komagata Maru reported that oners prevented him from, get- |ting up steam and asked for assis- | tance, 160 policemen and immigration officials responded. They went out 1o the vessel in the largest tug available | but were unable to gain the deck of the Komagata Maru in the face of stubborn resistance offered by the Hindus on board. I'rom all parts of the ship they hurled down on the ofs | ficers, coal, iron bars, pieces of ma= chinery, hatchets and clubs injuring many men and smashing the windows of the tug. | Hindas Open Fire, “Some shots were fired by the Hin- dus, but the officers although armed, in their anxiety to avoid blovdshed, 1 did not return the fire.
