VeStleatlOn was not into the SOAVency
or the insolvency Of the New Haven
company but rtaher into the char
acter Of its financial operations"
Msllsn's Financial Juggling.
The transactions of President Mellen
In giving his personal notes to his own
company for stock are discussed at
length by Commissioner Prouty.
On transactions in New Haven stock,
bought with such notes. the report
says there were profits Of 100000, but
the New Haven's books do not show
to what use the money was pr1. Com
missioner Prouty says:
"His statement was that the amount
had been used In campaign expendi-
1904 by direction Of his directors and
that they had ratified his act. The
special account shows a payment to
Mr.. Mellen Of $4,000 in cash. which he
passed over to the republican national
campaign committee. It shows a sec
ond payment to Mr.. Buckland, now
vice president Of the company. Of $6.-
500. which was turned over to the re-
publican state committee of Rhode
Island"
Large Sums For Campaigns.
The investigation disclosed that such
stock transactions extended over. a
period and from time to time Mellen
was given large sums for various pur-
poses unstated on the books Of the
company. He explained that the
amounts he received were for cam
paign contributions and for other ex-
penses. including one item Of $4,000
spent in connection with certain
leases Of dock property in New York
City,"
Commissioner Prouty says that the
commission doubts the propriety OF
this laxity in keeping accounts be-
tween Mr.. Mellen and his company.
"1f." says the report, "the president OF
this corporation expends money in
connection with the purchase of a
lease he should take a voucher for the
same. If the expenditure is such that
a voucher can not be taken it ought
not to be made"
It IL pointed out that all Of Mr.
Mellen's notes have been liquidated ex-
cept one for $1,000. but many Of them
involve transactions not disclosed by
the books.
