Pendleton was re-elected auditor. Walter E. Wheeler, Albert N. Cran- dall and Everett A. Kingsley were re- elected assessors. Everett E. Whipple moved the re- clection of the present board of ensi- neers. Richard J. Rooney made motion that the hoard of engineers be composed -as foHeys: Harry S. Covle, chief; Wil- liam H. Greene, George Egger, John Lynch. and Herbert P. Clark, assist- ants. _Robert Duff seconded the motion but Mr. Coyle declared he was not a candidate for chief engineer. On motion, the old board of engi- neers were elected separately and unanimously. Mr. Rooney argued as a reason for a board of five engineers instead of four was to prevent a tie in the tran: action of business. Chief Cottrell said he had been a member of the board 24 years and that there had been no tle. Mr.’ Whipple did not think it well to add another engineer at an expense of 350'a year. Everett Barns said if there was to be a change In number of en- gineers it ought to be reduced to three indtead of increased to five. ‘When the recommendations of the board of engineers was reached there wa's discussion as to increase of salary of ‘the chief engineer, and on motion of Mr. Barns the salary was increased from $300 to 3400, and without opposi tion.

RULING ABSOLVES NEW HAVEN DIRECTORS (Continued from Page One) tation system and to furnish the means for a possible new terminal in New York city and not for interstate purposes. To submit the evidence to the jury would, said the court, “pred- icate the commission of perjury by Mr. Mellen. Government May Submit Further Evi- dence. While the government begged leave and was granted the opportunity to submit further evidence to prove its contention, Judge Hunt made it plain that it would have to be of the strong- est character to upset his ruling which ordered all the Westchester testimony thus far given stricken from the rec- ord. As indicated by R. L. Batts, of federal counsel, in his opening ad: dress, the government purposed not only to show how - the Westchester's 18-mile charter cost the -New Haven $11,000,000, but to delve into political matters connected with the amend- ment of the charter for the alleged benefit of the New Haven. This, how- ever, now remains a closed book. Mr. Batts assoclated the name of Tam- many Hall with some of the trans- actions in which Westchester stock was acquired. End of Case in Sight. With_this subject eliminated, the end of the government's case, now en- tering its eighth week, came in sight. The federal attorneys began the pres- entation of evidence jn the last but even more important phase of its case —the alleged agreement in 1912 be- tween the New Haven and the Grand Trunk railway of Canada, whereby, it is charged, the Grand Trunk aban- doned the construction of a projected line which would have connected its subsidiary, the Central Vermont, with Providence, R. I This alleged agree- ment constitutes the principal unlaw- ful act charged against the defendants s having been committed within the period covered by the statute of lim- itations and counsel consider that the whole case virtually hinges upon its proof. Negotiations for New London Northern Letters. which passed between Mr. Mellen and the late C. M. Hays, vice president of the Grand Trunk, were read and from them it appeared that prior to the alleged agreement, nego- tiations were on foot for the purchase by: the New Haven of the New Lon- don Northern, a leased line of the Cen- tral Vermont. This correspondence was exchanged during 1909 and ap- peared to show that the Grand Trunk was willing to give up the New Lon- Opinion on New London Northern. Then, there came up the question as to whether the transfer of the New London Northern would be a violation of the Sherman law. The American Tobacco case was then pending in the United States supreme court and Ed- ward D. Robbins, one of the defend- ants and the New Haven's general | counsel, was asked to give an opinion. He wrote that the New London Nort ern and the New Haven touched points in common only within the state of Connecticut and if the Sherman law was interpreted as he thought _ it ought to be, the sale was legal. But, he added, no lawyer could give com- petent advice on the Sherman law and should the ruling of the lower court in the American Tobacco case be ad- hered to, “there is not a single rail- road ir the United States that is not beld together in violatioh of the act* Mellen Willing to Drop the Matter. After further correspondence, Mel- len wrote he was willing to drop the matter, but month later he wrote again to H: saying that the late J. P. Morgan had had an interview with Sir Charles Rivers Dilson, then president of the Grand Trunk w London Northern pro nd that Morgan wanted Hay Mellen to get together and rtain traffic matters. Mellen add- od that he didn't know much about wha AMcrgan and Charles had talked about and asked for light. Hays wrote back that he had taken Sir Charles to see Morzan and that Morzan wanted to know why the Grand Trunk president was unwilling to kesp an oid promise to sell the New testified Mr. Mel iestioned on the subject, this 0ld understand- as present at Mr. Morgan, Smithers man of the Grand Trunk) {herlan (Rason.

This cnded for the time being the negotiations with the Grand Trunk and the government got no further in the case today. The defense, however, nsed Mr. Meilen in incidental exam- Ination, fo bring out that the apparent reason for the desire of the New Ha- ven to eliminate the Grand Trunk trom the New England situation was to_give that territory lower rates. Mr. Mellen had testified that the Grand Triunk, on_account of its lonz hanl to points west. had been allowed a differential by the Trunk line asso- clation and it was proposed by Mr. Meller. to the the Trunk line presi- dents to abolish this differential by putting all rates out of New England on the same basis as that of New York. “Grand Trunk People Pirates. The Grand Trunk people were pi- rates.” remarked the witness, “and we always had to give pirates the lower rate.” “You wouldn’t call them pirates, would you?’ interrupted R. V. Lind- abury of the defense. “Well, cutting rates and cutting throats are just the same to me.” Melien Explained Rates. Mr. Mellen then explained that the rates for eastbound freight to Bos- ton were higher than they were to New York and the westbound lower and that his proposal was, with the consent of the Grand Trunk, to put all on an equal basis, which would have cost the New Haven several millions of dollars a year but saved that much to New England manufacturers. The reduction of the eastbound rate would have absorbed the advance in the westbound rate two and a half times over, he said. It was to placate the Grand Trunk, he explained, that he proposed to Hays. joint traffic. ar- rangements with the New Haven as a part of the bargaining for the New London road. arrange | No one would | In Black and VALUES $1.98 TO $2.25 season in both black a colorings. get a hat at from one- now. RUSSIA BANISHES LIQUOR ON TRANS-SIBERIAN RAILWAY. Before the War Vodka Was Sold at Al Stations and on Dining Cars. Harbin, Manchuria, Dec. 1.—(Corres- ce’ of The Associated Press.)— s banishment of _liquor has driven vodka from the trains and sta- tions of the Trans-Siberian railway and in consequence hhs particularly put much of Manchuria into the prohibition ranks. Being the chief artery of bus- iness, the Russian railway is the center of most activities in Central and North- ern Manchuria. In many of the small- or places the railway station cafe and bar are the only social center. Before the war vodka was sold at all stations and in the dining cars. Now the pa- must confine their drinking to non- alcoholic beverages.

The despatching SAGE TEA DARKENS HAIR TO ANY SHADE Don’t stay gray! Here’s a simple recipe that anybody can apply with a hair brush. The use of Sage and Sulphur for re- storing faded, gray hair to its natural color dates beck to grandmother’s time. She used it to keep her hair beautifully dark, glossy and abundant. Whenever her hair fell out or took onthat dull, faded or streaked appearance, this sim- ple mixture was applied with wonder- ful effect. But hfewing at home is mussy and out-or-date. Nowadays, by asking at any drug store for a 50 cent bottle of “Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem- edy,” you will get this famous oid recipe which can be depended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair and is splendid for dandruff, dry, feverish, itchy scalp and falling bair. A well-known downtown druggist says it darkens the hair so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied. You simply dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one strand ata time. By morning the sray hair disappears, an er another ap- plication or two, it becomes beautifully dark, glossy, soft and abundant. Take Care of That Itching!
