Mr. McReynolds is understood to be loath to take the case into court, but to feel that there is no other solution of the problem of untangling the New Haven. His ears are not closed to further negotiations with railroad of- ficlals but is was the opinion at the | notice of the action of the directors 4n New York yésterday refusing to accept conditions laid down in Massa- chusetts for the sale of its Boston and Maine stock came during the day. There was no intimation of any plan for complying with the government's demand that the Boston and Maine stock be sold and it was the general feeling that only the conference be- tween the president and the attorney general remains before the filing of the bill New Haven Not to Fight Suit. It became known tonight that the New Haven is not expected to offer eny great resistance to the suit. tI| any great resistance to the suit.

This would contribute-to a speedy determination of the case in the dis- Jrict court. S far-as the department s concerned, it is understood that when suit ¥ begun it will be pressed to a conclusion as rapidly as possible. Scope of the Bill. ‘There has been some doubt here as to how far the government’s bill may go in asking for a disintergration of | the New Haven and its subsidiaries. | At one time the bill contained a pro- | vision asking for the separation from the New Haven of the old New Eng- land Railroad which runs from Bos- ton down through Willimantic, Hart- Now Haven “Shore Line” It was as- similated by the New Haven many years ago and is now considered a vital part of the system. Over the road for many years some of the New Haven'’s finest trains were run between Boston and New York. There was some question as to whether the Sherman act will apply to the New England and it is possible that this feature will be iminated from 4he bill. If it'is ret and the government should carry the point, the New Haven would be stripped to its Shore Line and a few feeders pro- Jecting north- into the New England states which it traverses. RESTITUTION SUIT BY MINORITY STOCKHOLDERS. Ask for Restoration of $102,000,000 it legally Used in Building Up the New . Haen System. Boston, July 17—A restitution suit whereby minority stockholders seek to compel former and present directors to restore to the treasur of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Rafl- |road Company approximately $102,- 000,000 alleged to have been allegally used in building up the system, was begun in/ the supreme court today. Judge Braley, before whom the ac- tion was brought, issued an order of notice, returnable next Friday, to show cause why a receiver, special master or other official should not be appoint- ed in acordance with the bill of com- plaint. The plaintiffs, who are trustees of the late Ole Bull Vaughn's estate and own fifty shares of the capital stock, asked for a recelver to take. on of all claims in favor of the defendants, but not to interfere with admin- istratibn of the current of the New Haven company. They asked al- S0 that' shares of capital stock held by the defendsnt- be not disturbed ex- cept by order _of the court -and.that they later Ee ‘applied to the payment of any court decree that might be is- syed.

But, after pointing out that ft has expended millions d dollars upon the Harlem property pursuance - of what it calls a just uld 9rndmx policy, the New York Central conctudes that the demand for forfeiture or termina- tion of the lease is contrary to equity and that no restriction should be put on the exercise of its rights incident to its holding of the capital stock of the Harlem road. A dismissal of the compiaint with costs is asked of the court.

It was in mid-afternoon. SBhe rode around in an automobile and Vi: ited relatives until it was sufficientiy dark to prevent a crowd of curious per- sons from seeing her features as she entered the house where, it is alleged, she shot and killed Mrs. Bailey on the night of June 30 last. Mrs. Carman Shows Strain. ‘When Mrs. Carman was led into the courtroom this afternoon for artaiga: ment she plainly showed the strain she | had been under since her arrest. Her face was wan and pale. When the clerk of the court asked her how she would pie her lips opened to an- swer, but Mr Levy interrupted her. Upon the understanding that his client would have the right to withdraw her plea within two weeks and flle a do- murrer and a motion to quash the in- dictment on the ground of insufficient evidence, her counsel entered a plea of “not guilty.” Accused Woman Collapsed. After the bail bond had been ar- ranged and signed, the physician's wife was led to an anteroom, and there she collapsed. The Jjail physician and her husband administered restorafives and then assisted Mrs. Carman back through an underground passage to the jail. There her two suitcases, which she had packed during the morring, were obtained, and a faw | minutes later, assisted by her husband, one of her bondsmen and her atto:- ney, she came from the jail and enter- | ed a waiting limousine.

He sent detectives to a marsh abeut a mile from the Carman home to dig in & place where an informant said he had | seen a man bury a_revolver the day after the murder.

Zapata, who de- mands agrarian reforms immediately made common cause with the consti- tutionalists and obtained supplies from them with which to fight the Huerta government. It is not known yet, how- ever, whether he will lay down his arms in favor of Carranza. Using Influence with Zapata, The United States is using its in- fluence, through friends of Zapata, to ‘bring him into harmony with the peace e, and an emissary from General Carranza is now on his way - | to_confer with Zapata.
