Against Sherman Law.

Meets New England Repre-.
sentatives - Will Wei /
come Investigation. !

Word was received from Washington
late last night that Attorney General
Wickersham had ordered an investigation
to ascertain the facts relating TO the re-
ported traflc agreement between the
Grand Trunk Railway OF Canada and the
New York, New Haven & Hartford. with
the purpose of determining whether the
proposed agreement would be a violation
Of the Sherman antitrust law.

and will also attempt to get the matter
Of the contemplated agreement between
the two roads before the money trust"

The long awaited conference between
Governor Pothier's representatives and
President Chsmberlin Of the Grand Trunk
Railway with regard TO a final dlsposi-
ton Of the Canadian roads plans for It's
invasion Of New England territory was
held at the Waldorf yesterday forenoon
and resulted in nothing but duel OF
statements between President Chamberlin
and Attorney General Rice. Of Rhode ISL
and. Mr.. Rce's version appeared in the
form OF telegraphed report to Governor
Pothier, following the meeting at the
Waldorf. President Chamberlin's comment

Conference Without Results.

The New England representatives who
came to town on Thursday, armed with
the determination TO get hnal state
ment which would dispose forever OF the
matter OF the Grand Trunk extensions
into New England, went home last night
with nothing 20 show for their trouble.
At Yesterdays conference President
Chamberiin confined himself entirely TO
the matter OF the impending agreement
with the New Haven road-a matter
which, aside from its unmistakaole INFER
ences, has nothing TO do with the extern
zion OF the Canadian lines into New
Haven territory. The differences are that
these extensions never will be MADE.
How this result has come 70 be the only
logical one is a matter which VIII be
investigated by Attorney General WICK
ersham at Washington the coming week.
President Chamberlin said in his apart
ments al the Waldorf last night that the
proposed agreement between his road and
the New Haven was purely working
one. In consideration of certain conces-
sions granted President Mellen's road on
the southern lines Of the Grand Trunk
system the latter road would get the
benefit of trackage and traffic privileges
into Boston and New York. He said that
he considered Attorney General Bliss's
report TO Governor Pothier harsh ana
unfair" and that more care should have
been used in giving a version OF such an
important interview.

Disappointed, Not Disguised.

In answer TO the report Of Attorney
General Rice that the Grand Trunks
president had asserted that he was dis
susted" with the people OF New England
and especially those Of Rhode Island, on
account of the Juror they had raised over
the suspension Of work on the proposed
extensions, Mr. Chamberlin said last
night that he had said that he was dis
appointed" over the action taken In con-
nection with the Southern New England
matter. He denied that the discontinuance
Of work on the Palmer extension had any
thing to do with his roads general cur
tailment Of construction at this time OF
year.
Weather conditions and our board or
directors" were the variable quantities
according to President Chamoerlin, in the
problem OF the Grand Trunk extensions,

berlin. there will be no discrimination
made In regard 10 work on the Southern
New England At my conferences with
the officials OF the New Haven road the
matter OF the abandonment Of the Palmer
extension had not been discussed, ana
viii not be at any future conferences. In
the course OF those talks which | have
had with officials OF the New Haven road
the question OF reimbursement by that
road Tor any expense already incurred in
the construction OF the Palmer extension
was not considered nor discussed, and any
report to the contrary is a lie. / Will
welcome any investigation on this point

New England Aid Not Wanted.

In reply TO Mr.. Bllss's contention that
the State OF Rhode Island and the city
OF Providence had made large harbor i'm
provements on account OF the Southern
New England Railway, President Cham
berlin said that he succeeded in getting
the Rhode Island man to ADMIT that
neither promise nor exclusive use OF the
improved facilities had been given TO the
railroad and that, therefore, the matter
was in all respects beside the issue. He
said TINT in the event OF an extension
the Grand Trunk was amply able, under
normal conditions, 10 finance 1t, and that
New England assistance would not be
considered
Yesterdays conference did little more
than confrm the statement credited 10
David o. Ives, Of the transportation ou-
reau OF the Boston Chamber or COM
merce, who several days ago gave 1t out
az his opinion that the further develop
ment Of the port OF Boston by means Of
the Grand Trunks acquisition OF an East
ern Massachusetts, line was useless con-
sideration. While II is possible that the
Palmer Providence line, which is already
laid out and ditched, will be completed,
IL is practically conceded that the great
dream of the late President Hays Of the
Grand Trunk will never be realized.
A new turn was given yesterday to the
New Haven-Grand Trunk complications.
through the report from Wall Street that
Charles w. Morses hurried departure for
Europe was connected with the deal. 1t
has been commonly understood that Mr.
Morse was planning a steamship line in
conjunction with the Grand Trunk that
would compete with the New Haven's
vessels between New York and New
England. The proposed trafac agreement
between the two roads would necessarily
compel readjustment Of the plans for
this line.
