DEMOCRATS ATTACK THE TARIFF BILL Senator Pomerene Threatens to Make ight on Floor of Senate, Washington, Sept. 18.—A settlément lifferences between the senate se over the proposed duties on wheat and flour was reached by the demockatic members of the tariff con- ference committee today. The nature of the agreement was not made pub- lic, but it is understood that the house members finaily accepted the senate amendment almost without change. Under this provision both wheat and flour would go on the free list and a duty of ten cents per bushel would be assessed against wheat imported from a country levying a duty on American wheat and a duty of 45 cents per barrel against flour imported un- der like conditions. The house had put a straight duty of ten cents per bushel on wheat, and had free-listed flour with a countervailing duty of ten per cent. ad valorem Today's agreement established a precedent, which, it is understood, will De followed in other cases in imposing countervailing duties. It is expected that the conference will approve a countervailing duty of ten cents on potatoes which both houses have put on the free list and that the countervailing duty on wood pulp, put in by the house and later stricken out by the senate, may also be adopted The decision of the conferees to drop senate amendments proposing a tax and ho concerning further articles of impeach- - ment against Governor Sulzer. ermitted to 5 | rosecutor and | PRESIDENT HADLEY Ser Brown is a| RAILROAD DIRECTOR. & 25 he did | Elected Yesterday at Meeting of New | n committee’s | Haven Directors. | s s of Senator Wagner.

HEARING “WICKEDLY WASTEFUL” Financial Policy of Mellen Regime so Characterized—No Need of Under- writing Bonds, He Declares. Boston, Sept. 18.—The case_for the New York, New Haven and Hartford rallroad, which is seeking the author- lzation of the Massachusetts public service commission for a 367,000,000 issue of convertible debenture bonds, was closed today. Former Governor Morgan G. Buikeley of Connecticut and his counsel. James F. Jacksen, former chairman of the Massachuseits rafl- road commission, appeared in objection to the proposed issue. To Sell Direct to Stoskholder: Two features of the bond ssue are condemned by the objectors, namely, the underwriting_proposition and the convertibility of the bonds. Mr. Bulke- ley contended that the issue could be s50ld direct to the holders of New Ha- ven stocks and bonds without under- writing. To support this contentlon, he aid that the 1ights on the proposed issue were selling in the market at a premium, and he believed that even though the issue should be offered on a five per cent. instead of a six per cent. basis it could be sold just as readily ‘I am not scared by the suggestion of a receivership—a suggestion which has come principally from New Haven directors,” he said. “The financial af- fairs of the road have been rotten for ten yoars. The road has been con- trolled by the large interests, which have always outvoted the minority stockholders when the latter disap- proved buying trolley and steamship line: New Haven Station an Extravaganc: He added that his experience at stockholders’ meetings had indicated that the small stockholder was given small consideration. During his talk Mr. Bulkeley said that the proposed new $5,000,000 station at New Haven was the “wildest ex- travagance” and should not be per- mitted. The Connecticut trolley prop- erties, he said. should be disposed of, but not under the hammer. He con- sidered inevitable a dividend reduction from six per cent. to four per cent. Mr. Jackson criticized severely the road's affairs under the administration of President Charles S. Mellen. Both Messrs. Bulkelev and Jackson stated emphatically that they did not deny that the company needed money, but ther thought the proposed bond issue was not the best way in which to raise it. Mellen Regime “Wickedly Wasteful.” “Our criticism today,” continued Mr. Jackson, “is not of the ambitious plan for railroad monopoly. but of the foll of the methods employed to bring It about. The Mellen regime was pro- gressive and brilliant but wickedly wasteful, as well as indifferent to pub- e policies and mindless of law. With Morgan to finance the cost, the Mellen idea_was to buy. buy anything that went on wheels, and at any price. But it is idle to mourn. What is wanted is a way out of trouble and not a funeral over it.” Governor Bulkeley protested agalnst a waste of nearly two millions of dol- lars in an underwriting commission. The company, in its original petition, sought to capitalize it. Now it pro- poses to pay it in some other way. No Need of Underwriting. “From the day when the circular announcing the proposed issue first went out—and that was before the meeting of stockholders—to the pres- ent time, the market for these bonds has proved that there was no need of underwriting. Two-thirds of the pro- ceeds were (o be used in taking up old obligations. Can anyone doubt that the holder of these obligations would be more than glad to make the ex- | change But thes, stock. there is another trouble with bonds—their convertibility Our laws require this commis sion to pass upon the price at which stock is issued. These bonds call for an output of stock fi hence. All experts hav greed that what this stock will be worth at that time is mere gue: Can this commission per- form its duty by making that gues today? If vou can, we shall tent, for a convertible bond is wholly from our point of satisfactory No Better Railroad in Country. Asked what he thought of the New Haven as sulkeley s: vailroad In could have financial proposition, Mr. that there was no botler the country, although it been managed betier than it had been durinz the past twelve vears. Connecticut people, he said, cansidered New York, New Haven and Hartford securities a favorite ment. Referring to the Rillard com pany, Mr. Bulkeler claimed that it was organized mainly to permit the shifting about of certaln New Haven holdings which the Massachusetts courts had ordered the company to dispose of. The Billard company had no direct assets. valuable equity in the stock of the New England Navigation company, one of the New Haven's subsidiaries. The need of the 367,000,000 issue was doubted by Mr. Bulkeley, who suggest- ed that the commission approve only enough bonds to ate necesslties, such as outstanding short term notes and the amount necessary for new equipment. Still Control Massachusetts Trolleys, Before the New Haven closed the presentation ef its side K, D, Robbins, general counsel of the road, admitted under questioning that the Massachu-~ setts trolley holdings which the su~ preme court of Massachugetts ardered sold were owned by the Billard cem- pany, e New Huven subsidiary, Referendum on |, O, O.

H., Sept. 18—~“This hag been the most enjoyable day 1 have had in years,' said Harry K. Thaw, as he returned from a long autemo- bile ride in the country today. 'The outing was arranged by Sheriff Drew, who has Thaw in custody pending the outcome of the extradition hearing be- fore Gevernor Felker next Tuesday, companied by the sheriff and his assistant, Police Officer Stevens, news. paper ‘men and photographers, Thatv was about to leave the hotel where he is quartered, when Drew saw that a large crowd had gathered in the square outside. The sheriff suggested that they avoid the gathering by go- ing through a rear entrance and board- ing the automobile In an alley, but this did not suit Thaw. “The Front Door or Nothing. “The front door or nothing for me,” :15» sald, and the sheriff let him have his way. Amid the cheers of the crowd, the party whirled out of the ciiy through the lage of Penacook, twelve miles distant, to Boscawen There the In- viting flelds stretching alongside the state boulevard attracted Thaw, who got down to stretch his legs, with Of- er Stevens as his escort. Thaw was n fine fettle and for over two miles hit up a pace that forced Stevens to do his best to keep up. When they climbed back into the car, Thaw's cheeks had a healthy flush and he was in better condilion apparently as to wind, than s his guardian. Visited St. Paul’s School. Upon the return trip a visit wi made to St. Paul’ school, where Thaw’s cousin, Bepjamin Thaw, Jr., was a_student seven, years ago. “This has made me feel like going to bed early and getting a good sleep,” said Thaw when he got back But before carrying oue that part of the programme he went over with his law- vers the results of their all-day search in the law books of the state library for precedents bearing upon the extra- dition proceedings before Governor against Willlam Travers Jerome and the police sent him out of the city.
