on tle subject so we'll known the
media ors would be less hopeful OF
success il the Mexican representatives
prove unwilling to g. ant this import
ait concession.
The broad information scope OF
the proceedings and the Importance
at ached t. them by otaer South and
Central American coun ,ries was evi-
dcnced by the arrival here OF Con
zales Cordova, minister from Ecuador
to the United States. He declared
he had cJme on instructions from his
government. Ii is understood tnat
D.. Alberto Membreno minister from
Honduras, is coming and that other
Latin American diplomats or their
representatives also will be on the
scene.
DR.. Cordova's announcement Of The
interest of his government in the
mediation was accepted here as an
indication Of similar interest on the
part of other Pan-American coun ries.
Those in close touch with the situa-
ton pointed out that the mediation
means much more than the settle
ment of the problem between the
United States and Mexico. 1t was
pointed out in circles close to the
mediators that the success of the
mediation would strengthen the ties
between the United States and the
other Pan-American nations.
Tomorrow will be devoted mainly
10 the formalities incident to the
starting of an international gathering
Of this character.

Barnwell, May ia most distress
ing accident occurred few miles
from Barnwell Saturday morning,
when the little daughter of Mr.. Henry
Creeeh had one Of her feet entirely
severed and the other one nearly so by
moving machine driven by her faith
er.
The little girl, according to informa-
ton received here, had carried some
fresh drinking water to her father,
wno was cutting oats in nearby
field. While she was standing near the
moving machine the mules became
unmanageable and dashed off. In a
twinkling the sharp blade had COM
pletely severed one of the feet, the
other one being cut almost off.
Medical attention was hurriedly
summoned and the little sufferer rush
ed to a Columbia hospital where it is
reported here, she died yesterday
morning.
The father of the child, who is said
to have been an unusually bright little
girl, is frantic with grief over the de-
plorable accident and the family has
the sympathy of the entire coup&y.

Shows His Wrath.

When he finally related the Incl
dent, his face was drawn into hard
lines, and he clasped his hands over
the table in front of him almost con-
vulsively. His voice indicated no
signs Of emotion however.
Later he even gave the story a
touch of humor. When Directors
Hemingway and Skinner OF the New
Haven demanded OF him why the road
was expending $11,O00,OOO on the
Westchester purchase, he said he Of
fered to appoint each of them a COM
mittee of one to find out; that he had
''barked his shins' in a futile en-
deavor to obtain information from Mr..
Morgan and that they could try it if
they desired.
"They ducked," concIuded Mr.. Mel
len, grimly, and a ripple of apprecia-
tive laughter ran around the hearing
room.
Particular interest was aroused by
Mr.. Mellen's account of mis- conference
with the then president, Col, Roose-
welt, repecting the acquisition Of the
Boston & Maine He explained that
he was great admirer of Col. Roose-
velt, and frequently conferred with
him about important questions.
Colonel Wouldn't Help.
Col. Roosevelt said to him at that
conference, according to the testi-
mony, that he was not a lawyer and
was not prepared to advise him what
to do about the proposed purchase,
but on Mr.. Mellen's statement of he
situation he said there might be moth
ing Objectionable in it. Mr.. Mellen
testified that the president said that,
he could countenance no illegal ac-
ton in the matter, and suggested that
he confer with Commissioner Lane
of the interstate commerce commits
sion. From Mr.. Lane, he said, he got
no expression Of opinion.
A letter was submitted by Mr.. Folk,
written on May 81, 1907, by Henry
W. Whitney to Mr.. Mellen, suggesting
that he "say something at an early
date touching the Boston & Maine
matter" and ga large public is still
to be reckoned with" and concluding
with this paragraph:
Afraid of Public.
'I have thought it possible The
little father at Washington might
like to get his finger into the pie, in
which event, if it should happen be-
fore the public should become recon
ciled to lie change, it might result in
infinite harm oo all yoar Interests"

readiness for proceedings to begin

the hour set for the formal opening
O. he first session.
With the arrival late tonight from
Washington Of two American dele
gates, Justice Joseph r. Lamar and
Frederick ". Lehman, the personel
Of the conference awaited for its COM
pletion the third mediator, Eduardo
Suarez, the Chilean minister, and the
three Mexican delegates. The latter
are due from New York early to-
morrow. Mr.. Suarez was expected to-
night, but as he had failed to arrive
a. a late hour it was assumed he had
delayed his journey and would not
reach here until tomorrow.
Prepare Tentative Rules.
Ambassador da Cana Of Brazil and
Minister Naon of Argentina, who have
been here since yesterday, today de-
voted themselves to the formulation
of tentative rules of procedure. Their
announcement was held in abeyance
pending the approval by the Chilean
mediator, but it was understood that
among other things the rules called
for formal discussion as precedent
20 all formal negotiations The latter,
it was said, for purposes of record
would take the form of protocols or
written agreements as to what had
taken place, signed by all parties to
the negotiations and drawn I'D &C oc-

tors continued to maintain strict
reticence as to the nature Of the

MORGAN THE EVIL GENIUS
OF THE NEW HAVEN RAILROAD
Amazing Story of His Domination Told
on Stand by MelIen-MilliOnS En-
pended at DictatOr's Word.

Washington, May ia story OF
The late j. P. Morgan absolute domi-
nation in affairs Of the New Haven
railroad Of the spending OF millions
in awed and ignorant sileace at the
command of the all-powerful finan-
cial ruler was told 10 the interstate
commerce commission today by
Charles S. Mellen, former president OF
The New Haven. 1t was the most eX-
traordinary chapter yet unfolded in
the commissions inquiry into the al
legged exploitation Of the great New
England railroad and disappearance
OF fortunes from its treasury througS
acquisition at eXtravagant prices OF
subsidiaries properties.
There was not time in single day
in which to crowd all the incidents
and events dealt with in the witness
.estimony. He barely touched on some
of the big things, paving the way for
exhaustive questioning that will con-
tinue tomorrow.
Members of the commission coun-
sci and interested spectators fairly
hung on every word Of Mr.. Mellen 10
day as his story developed dramai-
calIy under the examination by Chic
Counsel Folk.
IN Amazing Story.
Everybody listeaed With absorbed
attention and at times evident amaze
ment as he related how ne had s,ood
III awe Of Mr.. Morgan, because Of his
comprehensive grasp and perfect
! prescience of financial matters; how
! he had consulted with Theodore
Roosevelt, then president OF the
United States, regarding the purchase
! of the Boston & Maine railroad; how
he had preven ed the late E. H. Har-
1iman from acquiring the Boston &
! Maine by getting it himself for the
! New Haven; and how he had deal,
with the late police inspector, Thomas
F. Byrnes of New York, to obtain the
Wes. chester stock held by persons
whom he assumed to be connected
with Tammany Hall.
AS when en- the sand last week,
Mr.. Mellen gave his testimony with
! apparent willingness, answering every
question readily and concisely-that
is every question excep, one. He did
, try to avoid telling about he time
when Mr.. Morgan humiliated him by
brusquely refusing to give him in
formation concerning the Westchester
transaction to which he though, as
president of the New Haven, he was
entitled.
