ELLIOTT TAKES STEPS TO
PROTECT new HAVEN
He and Roads Attorney Confer
With Commerce Board
About Its Report.

WAsHINGToN, June 81. Chairman
Howard Elliott of the New Haven rail-
road system and Walker u. Hines. gem
eral counsel. conferred with Commissioner
McChord OF the Interstate Commerce
Commission to-day They filed with him
brief based on testimony submitted
during the recent investigation of the New
Ravens financial affairs by the commits
sion.
The conference OF Messrs. Elliott and
Hines with Commiss oner McChord bears
out the impression that the commission
will at an early date send to the Senate
its report on the investigation.
During the investigation the present
management of the New Haven cooperated
with the comm ssion and placed its entire
records at Its disposal MIR. Hines on
several occasions said he wanted II under
stood that the testimony related to the
old management OF the system and not
the present one. On several occasions he
inserted in the record testimony and
statements having bearing on the
present situation on the road, and he said
that in the interest OF fair play the public
should understand this.
The brief fled to-day comments on this
class OF testimony and other things In the
Investigation and In substance II asks the
commission not to draft such a report as
will increase the difficulties under which
the present management is laboring.
Messrs Elliott and Hines fear that the
report OF the commission may be used 10
injure the railroad and that the comment
may be applied in such way as to
! further injure the property.
ia UNDERSIGNED that in the ranort n he
submitted the commission will take care
| TO dlfferentiate between the old and the
present management and will bring on,
! evidence, submitted during the investiga-
ton, that the work OF reforming and re-
facilitating the system or Its subsidiaries
has been undertaken in earnest and In
good faith.

In a senate amendment to the legislative
bill appropristing Si.5oo,ooo TO defrsy the
expenses OF collecting tho income tax In

Mr.. Underwood gave notice that $780,

features OF the tariff law had yielded more
revenue than was estimated and that the
