Commerce Commission Oenoun-
ces Directors in Report
to the Senate.
INDICTMENTS ARE PROBABLE
Evidence Against Financiers Turned
Over to Department of Justice and
Legal Authorities Of States
Concerned.

Washington, July 14.-"One of the
most glazing instances Of maladminis-
tration revealed in all the history Of
American railroading," is the Inter
state Commerce Commissions charac-
terization of it's findings in the inves-
tigation Of New Haven railroad finan-
cial affairs, just reported to the senate.
"A reasonable estimate OF the loss
to the New Haven by reason of waste
and mismanagement," says the report,
will amount to between $60.00O,000
and '$90,000,000. Directors should be
made individually liable to civil and
criminal laws for the manner in which
they discharge their trust"
In report of 10000 words, prob
ably the most drastic in terms of any
ever made by the commission, the
New Ravens directors were pro
nounced "cr.minally negligent" Evil
dence pointing to violation of law has
been transmitted to district attorneys
in Massachusetts, Rhode Island and
New York, and the department OF JUS
tice.
Millions Thrown Away.
1t told of millions used like stage
money, of corporations as pawns in
monster game, with all New England's
transportation as prize, which led
the New Haven in ten years just
passed from the height of prosperity
to the point where dividend has been
passed, where dissolution suit is
threatening and where criminal indict-
ments of many of the directors who
tiguredin its deals are at least a pos.
sibility. ~.
Hampered, by unwilling witnesses,
by burned books and by all the mazes
which lawyers invented to cover the
trail the commission estimated that
in the progress toward monopoliZa-
ton of New England transportation
the New Haven stockholders have lost
between $G5,000.000 and 100000, 900,
but little of which they may recover.
In return, the report said, they have
on their hands properties which pay
no dividends, which eat into the earn
ings of the parent road, and which
will be burden on its capacity for
years to come.
May Sue to Recover.
Boston, July 14,-Whipple, Sears &
Ogden, attorneys representing minor.
ity stockholders of the New York, New
Haven & Hartford Railroad, have de-
manded that the directors join their
clients in the suit to recover about
1925, 100000 alleged to have been
wasted by the management.
The suit, which, it is said, will be
fled this week, is to be directed |
against the estate of J. p. Morgan.
Rockefeller, Lewis Cass Led
yard and others who were mem ers |
of the New Haven directorate at the |
time that transactions that have been
the subject of inquiry by the Inter.
state Commerce Commission were
made.

Attacks Administration Trade
Commission Measure in
Speech to Senate.
SIX WEEKS MORE Of DEBATE
Upper House Members Endeavorinq to
lncrease Speed on Program-Sen-
ators Keep Up Fight on
President.

Washington, July Ex-senator ], n.
Reed OF Missouri attacked the admin
istration Interstate Trade Commission
bill on the floor of the senate yester-
day. He urged that the interstate
commerce committee and the judiciary
committee, of which he is member,
get together, to work out trust legis-
lation jointly with consolidation of all
pending measures on the subject in
view.
Senator Reeds attack, directed par
ucularly at the section relating to "un-
fair competition was followed by as
saults from other members of the ju-
dietary committee. Later it developed
that an unsuccessful effort already
had been made by the interstate COM
mere committee to have the judiciary
committee cooperate with it.
Senator Reed declared the unfair
competition" section of the Trade
Commission bill would dispel public
sentiment in favor of trust legislation
without giving the people a single
remedy not already accorded them by
the courts. Moreover, he declared, he
did not believe the people ever would
sanction bill which would place the
business of the country in the control
of board governed by no rule of con-
duct except its own concepts of right
and wrong.
Senator Newlands and Senator
Salisbury of the interstate commerce
committee repeatedly urged Senator
Reed to suggest amendments to the
Trade bill to make it more specific.
