new HAVEN ROAD QUESTION
RAILWAY is URGED TO FIGHT
CASE IN COURTS.
Governor Baldwin, in Speech, Also
Defends Company-U. S.
Active.

New Haven, Conn.,, March 21.-
Rather than surrender to the demands
OF the attorney general of the United
States for ACKNOWLEDGMENT by agree
ment of any part of the New Haven
railroad system the New Haven
Chamber of Commerce passed resolu-
lions calling upon the president and
directors of the railroad Ito resist to
the utmost such demands, and COM
pei the attorney general to argue his
case in court
The resolutions say that the pres
ent plans of the attorney general
mean the "destruction Of the present
transportation system of New Eng
land with consequent paralysis of
business and manufacturing inter,
ests.''
Called Drastic Action.
Waterbury, Conn. - Federal pro
ceedings against the New York, New
Haven & Hartford railroad in their
present aspect were condemned as too
drastic by Governor Baldwin in an adj
dress before the Waterbury Chamber
of Commerce.
Governor Baldwin condemned the
tendency to govern by federal COM
missions and investigating agencies
composed of men who know little of
the wants of community"
Elliott Still Hopeful.
New York.-On his way to Wash.
ington, Howard Elliott, chairman of
the New York, New Haven G Hart
ford Railroad company, expressed his
belief in an early settlement of some
of the more important questions now
pending with the government respect
ing the dissolution of the New Haven
system.
Dissolution Plans Complete.
Washington.-With practically ev,
cry detail of the plan for untangling
the New Haven Railroad system set
tied, officials of the road and attor-
neys for the department of justice be-
gan here today what are expected to
be their final conferences. According
to information available the plan if
approved by the attorney general and
the president will leave little to be
done before the New Haven starts out
to comply with the conditions of re-
organization laid down in it. The
plan, it was predicted in official cir
cles last night, will be along the fol-
lowing lines:
The New Haven will put it's Boston
& Maine stock, it's Rhode Island troll
legs and Connecticut lines in the
hands of boards of trustees.
The disposition of the Massachu.
sets trolley lines owned by the New
Haven will be left to the road, which
already has rid itself of many of it's
trolley lines in that state. No trus-
tees will be named for the so-called
outside steamship lines of the New
Haven from which it must part. These
lines will be taken care of by the New
Haven itself, the department of JUS
tice remaining in the position to
press for action by the road in divorc.

DARING. work
Is Done by the American Am
bulance Corps of Paris with
No Casualties as Yet.

Correspondence of Associated Press).
PARIS, Dec. 3-The American Am
bulance Corps of Paris has done
much effective work at the front but
thus far there has not been a single
casualty among the staff. composed
of doctors. bearers and automobile
drivers. A little girl from village
in the firing zone was killed by 4
shell while watching the American
ambulance men placing wounded
man in an automobile, yet no one
else was hurt. A British ambulance
next to one of the American cars was
struck by a shell and blown into
fragments. killing or wounding the
entire crew, but none of the Ameri-
can party nearby was touched.
Some doubt has arisen as to
whether neutrals should expose
themselves to such danger, but the
difficulty has been with the leaders
OF the American ambulance to keep
their associates out of the range OF
fire. The American ambulance
train is often cheered when it APP
pears close up to the trenches. The
men stay at the front week or ten
days and are then relieved by others
from Paris. A repair car accom-
panies the ambulances at the front
and any accident to a machine is thus
almost Immediately repaired. Enough
duplicate parts are kept in stock in
this repair car to construct a new
machine outright.
