Haven and Hartford Railroad, it was understood that the New Haven would Agree to a reorganization to restoro competition in transportetion throughout New England. ‘ No official announcement was made, but Mr, Elliott will remain in Wagh- ington for several days and, it was be- Neved, may settle detalis of the plan. After the conference Mr, Elilott con- ferred with T. W. Gregory and Jesse Adkins, the spgcial assistants who have had charge of the departments investl- Eation. “Things look encouraging,” sald Mr. Eliott to reporters, “I expect to be here several days and possibly before 1 leave may have something to ,tell you.” > 8 $ i cancellation of its agree- | 0 operation ef the Boston & | 3 i Fe? 3 i i i | eouthers MAY SELL HOLDINGS IN TROL- LEY AND SHIP LINES. The recent sem|-official announcement that the New Haven would agree that the Boston and Maine go in the hands of trustees and that its stock be sold at the end of a stated period so that control should pags to other hands, leads to the belief that a similar plan might be adopted in respect to the steamship and trolley lines. One argument that inclines the Attor- ney-General to favor a trusteeship is that the New Haven might have dif- ficulty in dipposing of its holdings at this tine. Under sucn a plan, Mr, McReynoMe could approve or disap- prove the trustees who were selected and pass upon details of the disposition of stock, It was understood to-day that the plan under consideration would not necess!- tate a perfunctory appearance in court such as was first proposed. The plan firat considered would have led to an G) | sareement between the department and the road whereby they would appear in Y| court and ask approval for a decree to )| which both parties consented. It was presumed the agreement would follow thé lines laid down in the case of the American Telephone and Tele- )| sraph Company. If thet were followed no court action would be necessary, Y| but the Department of Justice would reserve the right to file a dissolution nuit ang time if {t found the terme of the agvesment were not being carried out.

By admitting she bad written love letters and signed her husband's name to them, Mrs. Mary L. Decker yeater- day lost her $10,000 guilt againet Mre, Bertha L. Booth for alleged alienation of affection. The case was heard by Sustice Keogh in the Supreme Court in White Plains, Mre, Booth, who is wall to do, keeps & Gummer Doarding howss near Briar- cliffe Maner. Mra. Decker alleged that when Lorenzo Decker wast work- ing on the Booth place Mrs. Booth stole his love, The plaintif® enid her husband was known as “Loanie” by the defendant. Desiring te test her suspicions, Mrs, Decker gald, ahe wrote two letters in which ehe had “Lennie” confess his love for the widew Booth and aok her if she loved him. She received two answers from Mrs. Booth without Decker knowing what was going on. In one letter Mrs. Booth wrote: “Good night, Lonnie dear. Mey God watch over and guard you and keep you in good health is the nightly prayer of one who loved you better than you knew.” In another letter she wrote: “That little blue ailk night shirt has been washed and ironed and in my Gresser drawer. I wish I could talk to you to-night." Justice Keogh, in dismissing the com- plaint, eald there was no proof that Mrs. Booth had stolen Decker's love. ‘When Holmes Jones, representing Mre. Decker, learned the Justice was going to dismiss the action he suddenly called Mrs, Booth to the witness . “Who bought the little Dive silk night ehirt?’ he asked. “I don't know,” the witness replied. “It was left in my house by one of the boarders.” “You provided Decker with the littie blue silk garment?” “Oh, yes; I gave it to him because he @ia@n’t have any to put on,” and eho | Jaughed. “Did you care for him?’ came the! sharp demand. ‘ t “Well, I don't know what you mean | exactly. He was down and out and I) was simply trying to uplift him.” —— TRUSTS MAKEFARCE OF SHERMAN LA, 1 VEN OF UNTERNYER Lawyer Assails Work of ‘“Dis- solution” as Carried On vy . Attorney-General. \ CHICAGO, Jan, @—Samuel Unter-| myer of New York, who was counsel for | the Pujo ‘monty trust” comnuttee, wants the Government to create an in- dustrial commission, charged with the duty of procuring the dissolution of trusts. Mr. Untermyer thinks this work can not be done successfully by the At- torney-General. His views were stated in a speech at the Iilinols Manufec- turers’ Association luncheon here yes- terday, The New York lawyer said the re- sults obtained thus far in attempts to! Gissolve trusta by court order were for the most part “farcical.” He referred specifically to the Standard Oil and other cases, He said: “There has been uo restoration of competition between any of the several parts of the oll trust.
