LEDYARD GIVES LAWRENCE
LIE IN STIRRING SCENE

Mr. I,edyard. New York lawyer and
former director of the New Haven road
made a dramatic defence Of, the late J.
Pierpont Morgan at the hearing before
the Interstate Commerce Commission to-
day. when he unexpectedly took the floor
and branded as false the statements con-
corning himself and Mr.. Morgan which
had been made by William b. Lawrence,
Of Boston, the principal witness OF the
afternoon.
Mr.. Lawrence s the member OF the
Boston family which held large block
Of Boston & Maine stock and was respon-
sible for bringing Louis ID. Brandeis into
the New Haven and stirring up most OF
tho recent investigation which has helped
10 put the New Haven on the rocks.
Mr.. Ledyard. according TO Mr.. Law
rence's testimony, had told the directors
Of the Boston & Maine. before IL was
taken over by the New Haven. that the
latter company wanted to acquire con-
troll OF the Boston & Maine by swapping
New Haven stock for an equal amount oil
Boston & Maine stock.
lie also charged that Mr.. Ledyard had
said that Mr.. Morgan and Mr.. Pratt
had made up their minds that this would
be a good thing; that Mr.. Morgans firm
was then considering financing the New
Haven road TO the extent Of $4,000. 900
and the New York Central road for the
same amount. Mr. Ledyard. he sara,
had declared that Mr.. MORGAN hao IoIu

Morean's Alleged Plans.

Mr. Lawrence declared that Mr. Led
ward had told the directors il was Mr.
Morgan's opinion that the New Haven
road must have more business ana he
therefore asked for the opportunity TO
connect the two companies. The Bos-
tonian also said that Mr.. Ledyard had
told him that Il was Mr.. Morgan's ambi-
ton TO reduce all the railroads of tho
country TO five companies and combine
all the express companies Of the coun-
try in the same number OF concerns, or
possibly into three companies.
Mr.. Ledyard was director In the
Boston &, Maine and Mr.. Lawrence gave
II as his opinion that the New York law
yer represented Mr.. Morgan an this board
and in the sale OF a large block OF stock
to the New Haven.
When Mr.. Lawrence finished his test-
mony Mr. Ledyard jumped to his feet
and demanded an opportunity to make
statement. lie said lac had been sub
prnaed to appear tomorrow. but he be
lieved that II was only fair that lie
should be allowed 10 testify this after
noon. because. he said. a good deal OF the
testimony given by Mr.. Lawrence was
erroneous. Mr. Ledyard first referred 20
block of 5000 or 1000 shares of BoS-
ton e. Maine sold by the American Ex-
press Company. He said he represented
tho express company on the board of
directors OF the Boston & Maine and that

Ghost Story Made Good.

Now that ghost stories are again to
the fore, one from just a century ago
may find a place. In this case the
ghost was officially taken into account
by town meeting. Under the date
of March 6, 1906, the Annual Register
tells how a butcher of Stretford, In
Lancashire, had disappeared during a
recent food, and how rumors spread
that an apparition had been seen near
a certain local pool of water. Some
gave 1t the form OF an uncanny dog,
others that of an equally mysterious
man who had uttered blood-curdling
yells; and it was told that, even when
nothing was seen, cattle refused to
drink at the pond, and horses trem-
bled as they passed 1t. At last town
meeting was decided to pump the pool
dry. 1t was done, and there, sure
enough was the butcher.-London

Gypsy WordIess Language.

To communicate with one another,
Gypsies now use letters-and they use
the telegraph, too, when necessary
especially in this country. But the
modern Romany also follows the pat
teran," tracing the footsteps, or wagon
tracks, of his friends on the road by
the same method employed by his
ancient prototype, reading directions
where no words are written as clearly
as the gorgio does a roadside sign
board. says the Century. But the pat
teran can be read by the Gypsy only
1t is hidden and secret, although 1t
may be in plain sight, as a signboard
is open and public. The patteran may
be formed of sticks or stones or grass,
placed across fashion at the parting
of roads in such manner that only
Gypsy woul instantly notice and un-
derstand. To him 1t means much;
first of all, the direction taken by
Romany predecessors.
