RAIL HEADS INDICTED
EASTERN PRESIDENTS CHARGED
WITH VIOLATING LAW.
Federal Grand Jury at New York Says
Plan Constituted a Conspiracy
in Restraint of Trade.

New York, Dec. 26.-The federal
grand Jury, under the criminal section
Of the Sherman antitrust law, in
dicted here Monday, Charles S. Mel
len president of the New York, New
Haven & Hartford railway, who by
virtue of that office, is head of all
New Englands transportation facili-
ties.
Indictments were also returned
against Edison ]. Chamberlain, presi-
dent OF the Grand Trunk railroad, and
Alfred M. Smithers.
All three defendants are charged
with conspiring to monopolize and re,
strain interstate and foreign com
merce. The indictment is not based
upon the proposed new traffic and
trackage agreement between the New
Haven and Grand Trunk, copy OF
which was turned over to Attorney
General Wickersham by President
Mellen with the intimation that In
that document was contained the sole
ground upon which the government
thought it could proceed against the
two roads under the drastic Sherman
law. Instead it is based upon secret
documentary evidence obtained from
the office files Of both corporations by
representatives of the department OF
justice.
These documents show that 80 long
ago as last August the chief executive
heads of the two roads had begun to
conspire to bring about hard and
fast working arrangement whereby
the Canadian corporation would com
pletely wiahdraw from New England
and leave the Mellen-Morgan monop
oily in absolute enjoyment of that rich
field
