RAILROAD WAITS
New Haven Company Does Not Regard Talk About Investi-
 gallon as Being Serious
TALK ABOUT MERGER

New Haven, Aug. 24.-In railroad circles here the report that the gov ernment is making an investigation of the alleged illegality of the pro- posed merger of the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad com pany and the Boston & Maine is not regarded as serious except as such investigation might be followed by positive steps to prevent the merger. In that case the result might be grave not only to the New Haven company but to other great railroad interests of the country which have absorbed competitive roads.
 In the meantime the policy of the New Haven corporation is simply suspensive and awaiting new deve- lopments and also awaiting the next meeting of the Massachusetts legisla- ture when the merger is likely, after election, to figure less actively in Massachusetts politics.
 A high railroad authority, referring to the general subject to-day said it had a three-fold aspect as regards the element of competition, bringing the proposed merger under the antitrust law, the factor of competition in the Boston X Maine case is reduced to very low terms. It applies practical ly only to Fitchburg and the Fitchburg line of the Boston X Maine as re- mote and comparatively unimportant competitor with the New Haven or through western traffic. fhe Boston & Maien and the New Haven occupy essentially separate and non-competi. tive territory, exchanging with each other great volume of traffic. For all practical purposes the proposed merger is one of non-competing sys- tens and very different from the acute competition affecred by the Northern Securities decision.
 President Mellen, who is at his home at Stockbridge, Mass, con firmed the attitude of his company as simply awaiting any results of the government investigation, which he said. would disclose nothing of dl lilC6dl Oli tuC pdi VI the New York, New Haven and Hart ford Railroad Co in regard to the merger of railroad, trolley or steam boat transportation lines. He added that in a recent interview with United States District Asa P French he had rendered every facility on the part of the New Haven corpora tion for furthering any federal in vestigation of the acts of the com pany. In regard to the trolleys owned or controlled by the New Ha- ven corporation he stated that noe of them came under the antitrust act or interstate Jurisdiction. The Worcester and Eastern system, the only property owned by the com pany that crosses state line, had no competitor. except the Norwich and Worcester division of the New Haven company itself. and hence does not come under the provisions of the antitrust act with reference to the suppression of competition.
 President Mellen expressed no fears as to the results of any fed eral investigation.
