Indicting New Haven Directors.

1t can be very safely said of most Of
! the directors and former directors of the
| New York, New Haven & Hartford rail-
road that if they were engaged in a
! criminal conspiracy to monopolize COM
merce in violation of the Sherman anti
trust law, they were quite unconscious
of the fact. Certainly if they had fore
seen that the Mellen policy was to
bring federal grand jury indictments,
they would have given some other fell
lows the job of being directors in that
corporation. Now we shall see what is
to happen TO the 81 men who were placed
under indictment yesterday. The trag-
edy of the New Haven road promises
to be long drawn out, and there are
many angles to il. The time when the
dead past will be permitted to bury its
dead in that matter seems far away--a
fact which is not to the advantage of
the property.
1t is difficult to understand how the
lines have been drawn in this matter.
Among the list of the indicted appears
the name OF Theodore n. Vail, who did
everything that he could, acting from a
high sense of public duty, to save the
company from it's troubles. Those who
know the work which Mr.. Vail did are
aware Of the fact that he worked so
hard at this job as to impair his health

ford and Francis T. Maxwell of Rock.
vile, two men of first-class ability and
standing, who went into the board OF
directors in 1910, after the things the
government complains of had been done.
In fact five members of the present
strong board, which has been doing ex-
cellent work in rehabilitating the prop
erty, are indicted. As If to make the
muddle all the more lnexplicable to dis
interested observers, the man who led

CURRENT COMMENT
Business Recovery.

The attei lion of the country may
probably be directed to the letter just
sent out by the National City bank
analysing the business situation. This
letter, TO begin with, makes the i'm
portant concession that the war in Eu-
rope gives no promise of early termina'
ton, since none of the combatants is in
any sense near to exhaustion. So much
must be accepted at once in order that
American business men can save time
and patience by adjusting themselves
to this fact.
After which the following paragraph
is noteworthy. affairs in this country
are moving in an orderly manner toward
recovery. The banks in the central
cities have restored their legal reserves,
money is easier, fears of a financial
crisis have disappeared, the foreign trade
situation is better: pool to lead money
en- cotton has been agreed upon and the
new banking system is nearer to doing
business"
While trade is found to be light and
to judge from the bank cearances still
declining, it is apparent from the instr
buttons general survey that the upward
grade is clearly visible ahead, even
though we may not quite have reached
the bottom of the ravine. The remark
able strides of export trade within the
past few weeks should hasten us to the
turning point.
Naturally, there has been "a general
of new undertakings" under
recent conditions, and these sin grow
ing country like the United States are a
great factor in the business situation,"
but in the same ratio that affairs other
wise improve, new developments will be
suickened.
Altogether the commercial GONZALES
cence, ii not extremely rapid, is seen to
be at least positive and eminently sound.

the electorate satisfied with their efforts
at purging the various departments OF
public and semi-public life in New York
state. That Whitman has the capacity
of making a good governor is generally
believed. He got some rather hard
knocks from Theodore Roosevelt just
prior to the campaign but the vast ma
iority accorded him on Tuesday reveals
that the people of his state have conf
dence in Whitman no matter what
Roosevelt may say. Finally, the result
of the New York election shows that
the people of New York have mind OF
their own and are not pleased to receive
dctation from Long Island. Indeed the
day when Theodore Roosevelt's word
shall be the "last word" in politics of
any and every state seems to have
passed.

WHITMAN FOLLOWS HUGHES
PATH UPWARD.

New Yorks new governor-elect, Charles
w Whitman, is treading much the same
path as Charles f. Hughes went over in
his rise to eminence in executive and iu-
dieial position. 1t was through marked
prominence as prosecutor that Hughes
became introduced TO the people Of New
York, and il was the same in the case Of
Whitman. And now Whitman has been
selected as the next chief executive of
New York by tremendous sweep Of
ballots, with strength centered in no par
ticular point of the commonwealth
Hereafter the position of prosecutor in
some great investigations, when wen
conducted, is apt 70 be a stepping-stone
to official preferment, as in the two
cases mentioned. But no cheap individ.
ual can carry the program through.
None but the man Of real ability win
stand the test of the demand through a
tremendous investigation. Hughes did.
Whitman did. Each was rewarded BY

The executive committee of the Pro-
gressive party has been prompt to make
publication of the expenses incurred in
their recent campaign in Vermont. 1t is
not to be expected that the two leading
parties, Republican and Democratic, can
be nearly as prompt, because of the
greater mass of details connected with
the administration of their campaigns
and probably because of much greater
amount of expenditure; but it is expect
ed that such a publication will be made
within a reasonable time dating from
the day of the election.
