EXPECT BILLINGS
WILL BE NAMED
President and McAdoo Said to Insist
on Boston Banker for
Collector.

Washington, Sept 2.-Representa-
tive Murray is here this morning doing
all he can at the White House and the
treasury department to prevent the
nomination of Edmund Billings as col
lector of customs at Boston.
Indications yesterday are that Secre-
tary McAdoo will persist in making the
recommendation to the president and
that the president will nominate Bill
lings.
Mayor Fitzgerald who is back of the
fight on Billings, has put himself in a
peculiar position, which is likely to
weaken his protest. There is on file at
the White House offices a recent letter
from the mayor stoutly declaring
against the nomination of Samuel Hud-
son, when it seemed likely that Hud-
son would he selected. Nevertheless, the
mayor yesterday telegraphed here, urg-
ing Democratic congressman from Mass
aehnsetts to do all they could to Sc
cure the nomination of any one of nine
Massachusetts delegates, whom the
mayor designates in his kilograms by
name, and Hudson's name was on the
list.
This list of nine included Burnett,
Hudson, Taylor, Strecker, Thayer, Car
rol. Barry, Mcdonald and Charles.
1t is understood that Fitzgerald will
be here to-day.

HOW MELLEN

Meyer Says Stockholders
Body Made Recon-
mendations
URGED 1T ON
THE DIRECTORS
Committee Formed Before
the Bond Issue
Arose

Boston, Sept. l2.Defnite assertion
that the stockholders protective com
mittee was largely Instrumental IN
bringing about the ousting OF Charles
| S. Mellen as president OF the New Ia-
ven railroad was made yesterday after
noon by Hon. George Won l.. Meyer, for
mer secretary of the navy and chair
man of the committee, at MIR. Meyers
/ home in Hamilton.
The committee took no formal vote on
the matter and that is the reason why
this fact has not become known thus
| far through the reading OF the votes
taken, when they were presented TO the
public service commission which IS near
| ing the bond issue questions. Members
of the committee Mr.. Meyer says, made
| their recommendations in informal talks
with directors of the railroad. The
weight which went with this verbal rec
concentration was shown by Mr.. Mel
| lens handing in his resignation and its
acceptance by the directors. In connec-
ton with this it should be borne IN mind
| that the committee represents 33O,0O0
shares of the roads stock, or about one
| fifth of the outstanding capital, accord
| ing to Mr.. Meyer.
In discussing the activities of the COM
mittee and its work, Mr., Meyer said
That the stockholders organized because
Of the bad condition in which they found
the New Haven and in order to protect
| their own interests. At their request
he had accepted the Craftsmanship. Mr..
! Never said that his committee had found
AZ organization sswoefully inefficient" !;
! that it had found one man who had AS
sumed to be not only the head but the
organization as well,' and that though
| this man had done some good work he
had failed because of his failure to bring
his organization up to date, The organ.
ization which Mr.. Mellen had maintained
MIR. Never characterized as impraetlc-
able. saving that he kept up the same
sort OF plan as before his capital had
become crippled. He claimed also that
one man in himself alone could not han
die so vast proposition as the entlre
New Haven system with its two COM
plete railroad systems, lbs trolley COM
| panies and it's steamship lines.
Another feature which MIR. Meyer
brought out yesterday afternoon was
that the stockholders organized their
committee long before the question OF
issuing the debenture bonds now I'M
der discussion was considered. This is
deemed an important assertion because
/ il contradicts the claim that has been
made that Boston bankers instigated the
organization in order that they might
come in for a share in the underwriting
profits.

Advice to the

By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.
SHE is TICKLE.
Dear Miss Fairfax:

Dear Miss Fairfax;
am a. boy of eighteen and
am in love with a girl of the
same age. We We're engaged and
later she told me that she was en-
gagged to another not living here,
and asked me to break our en-
gagement, which l did. This boy,
to whom she was engaged, came
home on a vacation. After he re-
turned TO his work she wrote and
asked me to come TO see her,
which l did. Some time after this
I was with her and she told me
that she loved me and that our
enea cement could be renewed. l
was very glad to have her make
this offer. / accepted the renew
al and she seemed to be true 10
me until one day l saw her with
this other boy. Since that time
she has been cold to me except
at times. These times, I think,
are the times when she and this
other lover are in bad humOr to-
ward each other. I love her very
much and would be ready to do
anything to regain her love.
