Senate Plans to Frame
Legislation For Control
of Railroad Financing

Washington. July 14.-with its
unmeasured denunciation of the
"maladministration of New Haven
financial affairs and criminal negli-
gence" of directors, the Interstate
Commerce Commissions sensational
report on its investigation of the New
England railroad lines was to-day be-
fore the Senate Committee working to
frame legislation for control of rail-
road financing, inter1ocking director
ates and other subjects concerned in
the investigation.
Administration supporters declared
that many of the recommendations of
the committee agreed perfectly with
portions of President Wilson's trust
legislation program.
The next step in New Haven affairs
however, was expected from the De-
partment of Justice. Apart from al
legged violations of laws of States and
liability of the New Haven's direc-
tors over which Attorney General
McReynolds has said the federal stat
utes have no control, the Department
was concerned chiefly in the commits
sion's findings that all the acts char
acterized as corrupt and unlawful"
We're for the purpose of setting up a
monopoly in violation of the federal
statutes. The Department of Justice
has taken that view in it's dissolution
suit against the New Haven system
which probably will be filed within the
next few days, unless the railroad off,
cials reverse their, attitude and accept
the terms of peaceful dissolution.
The possibility of any criminal acts
being in violation of federal law was
being considered by the department,
but that phase of the case is apart
from the dissolution proceedings
Certified copies of testimony and ex-
hibits of evidence gathered by the
commissions examiners were on their
way by registered mail to-day to dis
trict attorneys in various jurisdictions
in New York, Connecticut and Rhode
Island in which New Haven transac-
tions were carried out. The testimony
and exhibits relate to such acts as the
commission has characterized as un-
lawful but which State officers If any.
must act.
The entire record was sent some
time ago to the Department of Jus
tice where 1t has been under study
by the attorneys in charge of the gov
ernment's contemplated dissolution
suit.

communication between Mexico City
and Vera Cruz. The chief engineer
of the Mexican railway was sent from
the capital personally to supervise the
repairing of the gap in the line near
the coast. Huerta, 1t was believed,
might use that route of departure.
The railway was torn up after the
American occupation of Vera Cruz.
With a crisis imminent administration
officials and ENJOYS of the South
American republics were untiring in
their efforts to-day to bring about a
transition of power in Mexico City
without further sacrice of life. Car
rama. Constitutionalist chief. in noti-
flying the United States that he would
not sanction any conference with rep
resentatives of Huerta to draft peace
terms, declared that unconditional
surrender of the authorities in Mex
leo City was the only thing he would
accept. He said he could give ample
assurances for the guarantee of life
and property.

are mapped out with a view to expe-
diting the various undertakings dur
ing the summer period, especially in
view of the fact that much of the
work is reinforced concrete and il is
necessary to keep moving during the
favorable weather. There is still some
controversy over a water main cross
ing the channel of Paxton creek near
State street, but 1t is expected that
all these matters will be adjusted as
the work proceeds. There seems to be
no reason why the Paxton creek job
cannot be completed without diff
Guilty this summer. 1t has been a slow
undertaking.
Some big sewer work is under way
in different parts of the city and pro-
vision has been made for considerable
paving, the move important job being
that in Derry street toward the east
ern city line. There is much paving
yet to be done and the Central Con-
struction and Supply Company is un-
derstood to be making its preparations
to hurry along the work. Harrisburg
is already one of the best paved cities
in the country and strangers and Wis
itors are constantly saying nice things
about the city's fine streets.

HOLDLOCA[ MAN
FOR AUTO FATALITY
Committed For Court Without
Bail; Say He Sped
Away
StecfnI to The Telegraph

Lebanon, Pa, July IA Gilbert
Stewart, of Harrisburg, yesterday al
ternoon was committed to the county
Jail without ball by Alderman X. l..
Miller, of this city, on a charge OF
manslaughter in the death of claude
Writer'S, of Palmyra, who was killed
early Sunday morning in miX-up
of two automobiles and team at
West Annville.
Stewart was the driver of the car
which is alleged to have figured In
the fatal accident and sped away leaV-
ing Writers and his four companions
lying in the road. With Stewart In
the car were Joseph Demma, Preston
Bixton, George Huber and Theodore
MageH, all of Harrisburg.
1t has been established that the car
owned and driven by Roy Stauffer,
who is dying in the hospital here from
a fractured skull, first collided with
the team of Wilbur Reed, of Syner,
and was then struck by the car
driven by Stewart. The question OF
responsibility for Writer'S death, the
probable fatal injury to Stauffer and
serious injuries to Paul Zimmerman
and Chester Bruce, also in the hospital
remains to be solved.
Only two weeks ago Stauffer mar
rowly missed death in an accident
which resulted in the loss of his auto
mobile near Harrisburg.

no copies of the evidence to-day. 1t is
understood. however, that copies will
be received. District Attorney Whit
man, who has been in Newport, came
here to-day.
VIII Not Discuss Report
Directors and former directors of
the road generally have refused to dis
cuss the commissions report. Mr.. Mel
len, however. under whose admins
tration the alleged acts complained of
were committed, branded 1t as "a re-
port of a political tribunal made for
political purposes"
The full board of the present New
Haven directors is to meet in New
York on Thursday. At that time some
statement bearing on the charges may
be issued.
Mr.. Mellen's counsel, ]. w. II. Grim
has issued a statement defending Mel
lens actions. He said that Mellen's
private fortune when he took charge
of the New Haven was a million dol
lars. Now. he added, 1t was far less
than that He added that If the gov
ernment or the stockholders began
action against the directors of the New
Haven Railroad. as suggested by the
commission, the directors would re-
taliate with what he termed an affirm
ative action, in which the other action
would be nullified. and much to the
credit of Mr.. Mellen and the directors
would be established.
May Be Indicted
District Attorney Whitman reached
his office shortly before II o'clock
and issued this statement:
When these papers (relative to the
New Haven) reach this office they will
be closely scrutinized, and If we have
any reason to believe that any crime
