WREYNOLDS LETTR TO PRESIDENT WILSON On Mis View of the New Haven Road Investigation. ' Mr, McReynolds' letter to the presi- len e oy renigiia me days since I reported to you that the board of directors of the New Haven rafiroad advised me that they would mot Ccarry into effect the approved proposals made by them last winter for bringing the affairs of that company into harmony with the federal statutes. “Following your direction, I wrote to the president of the company on July 9, expressing your views and my own in opposition to the position as- sumed by the.board. “Saturday last, [ receiveq a request to confer with & committee composed of m of the board on yesterday emphasized the position of the government, as out- lined in my letter of July 9, and ener- getically called attention to the re- sults which would necessarily follow adherence to the ition taken by them. They refused, however, to ad- mit any obligation to conform to the Massachusetts enactment and frmiy declineq to carry into effect their own proposals for an adjustment. “During the past year vou have been constantly In touch with my actions in respect of the New Haven road: and you have been good enough to ex- press satisfaction therewith, It seems, however, not inappropriate to again remind You of some aspects of the.gen- eral_situation. “Prior to 1308, the attention of the department of justice was called to the unlawful combinations and mono- polies in which the New Haven rail- road was the principal party; and in May of that year a proceeding under the Sherman law was instituted, wherein the government sought to co rect certain of the existing evils. This uit was dismissed June 26, 1909. Thereafter, the monopoly proceeded to strengthen its hold upon the carriers New England. ly the time your administration began the New Haven and the Bo: ton and Maine railroad had been re- duced to the unfortunate conditions now unhapplly too well known, their securities widely distributed among small investors had shrunken enor- mously in value and the commerce and industries of all New England were under severe strain. “Directly after assuming this of- fice, being convinceq that the situation demanded a thorough investigation by capable counsel, I retained Mr. T. W. Gregory, well known to you, and whose ability, industry and integrity are un- imbeachable. In due time he reported the result of his researches, and I in- structed him to prepare for filing at the earliest possible moment & pro- ceeding in equity to prevent further violations of the law. Before this could be accomplished the ralircad company selected a new chief officer and he earnestly asked to enter upon negotiations with me looking towards an’ adjustment without the mecessity |of suit.
