HAVEN REVELATION

MORE RAILROADS
New York Central Road
Likely to Be First to Come

IBY LEASED WIREl

WASHINGTON, May 23.-Revela-
tons by Charles s. Mellen as to the
financial practices Of the New York.
New Haven and Hartford Railroad
have caused the interstate commerce
commission to consider an investlga-
ton of other large railroad systems.
1t was learned today that II the COM
mission decided to thrust its probe
into other systems the New York Cen
trail is likely to be the first to come
under the spotlight Of publicity.
Chief counsel Folk of the commits
sion said today:
II think that an investigation OF the
New York Central would result in dis
closures as great as those made IN
connection with the New Haven"
Senator Norris of Nebraska, who in
troduced the resolution on which the
New Haven investigation was based,
is considering the Introduction OF q
similar measure in connection with
the New York Central.
Accept No Excuses.
, Neither physicians certificates OF
Illness nor any other excuses Will be
accepted by Solicitor Folk for the non
appearance of VIM. Rockefeller and
o&her directors Of the New Haven I'M
der subpoena to appear in the COM
missions New Haven investigation,
Solicitor Folk stated today.
III Mr. Rockefeller Is able to attend
to New Haven directors meetings, as
it appears he has done in the last few
days, he is sufficiently improved in
health to appear in Washington" said
Folk.
Under present conditions the chief
counsel said, VIM. Rockefeller, George
mccullough Miller, Samuel c. More
house and H. M. Kochersperger whom
Folk described as constituting the
sick list, will have to testify "or suffer
the consequences" Folk intimated
that contempt proceedings might be
Instituted. Mr.. Miller's ailment, ac-
cording to Folk. seems to be senility
and Samuel c. Morehouse and H. M.
Kochersperger are suffering from ner-
vous prostration.
Devere II. Warner, a New Haven
director, will be one of the next wit
nesses to be heard He expects to
bring out that many directors had so
little interest in the matters before
the board that they used the time con-
sumed by directors meetings to slip
in forty or more winks
Folk feels that the directors knew
that any protest they might have
made. had they given close attention
30 the proceedings. would have been
useless in view of the fact that Nor
gan and other higher-ups shaped the
policies usually formulated by the di-
rectOrS.
1t is not unlikely that more may be
heard from Mellen. In the event that
some of the next witnesses to be
heard make statements involving him
in matters concerning which he has
not testified, he may be recalled

was carefully guarded. While the po-
lice were searching for the documents
and books that will be used as evil
denece against the suffragets they
held their prisoners in the building.
Detectives Remain Silent.
Telephone calls to the headquarters
were answered by detectives who re-

what was transpiring. Reporters who
approached the building were turned
back.

TICKET ON JUNE 6

Republicans of Wayne county will
meet in this city Saturday. June g.,
tonominate the county ticket, accord
ing to a decision reached by the coun-
ty central committee, in session, at
the court house. Members of the COM
mittee took radical step from the
custom of the past when they decided
to hold delegate convention instead
Of a primary, as has been customary.
This will be the first time in thirty
years that Wayne county Republicans
have not used the primary convention
for nominating the county ticket.
That the delegations may be as
large as possible to impress the vot-
ers with the increasing strength of the
Republican party, five delegates will
be allowed each precinct, making more
than three hundred men to be seated
on the convention floor.
A. NJ. Gardner suggested that two
men represent each precinct. Frank
Davenport, however, argued that in
asmuch as this was the first delegate
nominating body for many years the
representation should be as near the
people as possible and suggested that
the number be increased to five. This
idea met the approval of Paul Com
stock who also advocated greater rep
resentation.
Ward and township meetings will be
held next Friday to elect ueiegateS 10

Circular letters relative to alfalfa
growing have been sent to many farm
ers OF Wayne county by the Indiana
Corn Growers association. These are
being used for the promotion Of the
alfalfa automobile tour of the county
which County Agent Cobb will direct
June 2 and 8. The letter follows:
"Have you field of alfalfa? II not,
why not?
1.-THE census Of 1910 reports alfalfa
grown in every county in Indiana. The
total average for the state is given as
1888 acres, with yield of 40.32O

has a long root and it won't grow in

less than three feet deep.
perhaps your land is sour. Alfalfa
needs sweet soil.
Perhaps your land is poor in fer
