MELLENs POLICY PRAISED.
Regards Expansion Policy of New
Haven Road Imperative.

The Wall Street Summary pub.
fishes from Hartford correspond.
ent an article reviewing the expan.
sion policy of the New Haven road
After discussing the course of Presi.
dent Mellen in acquiring various
electric and other properties, and
arguing that such policy was the
logical result of the condition, the
correspondent says:
Assuming that the Mellen ex.
penditures for acquiring traction
properties and undermining the rail.
road system are justified, what re-
mains necessary to complete the re-
habiliment of the steam operated
mileage? The New York division
has four tracks, and undoubtedly II
will need one or two more. From
New Haven to Providence an
additional track will be necessary,
and one extra track between New
Haven and Springfield. The COM
pletion of the road from Hartford
to Poughkeepsie is Imperative, as
the traffic between New York state
and Pennsylvania to southern New
England is increasing, and on that
division are some growing manufac-
turing cities, whose future impor-
lance cannot be overlooked. The
Central New England, now controlled
by the New Haven, is of Importance,
as may be seen by the increased
earnings.
Generally speaking the opinion
prevails among the investors In New
Haven that the extension policy was
imperative. The system required
undermining and the requirement OF
traction properties was necessary to
protect New Ravens large passenger
traffic. Business has declined and
the company will probably not re-
quire much new equipment for some
time, and in addition to the con-
struction OF the tracks aforemention-
ed. the company has little need for
borrowing large sums in the near
future. The possibility OF reduc-
ton in the dividend from per cent
to per cent Is discussed. but Is re-
garded as improbable. The average
banker and intelligent investor in
Connecticut has faith In the future
