rFrom The Tribune Bureau J

Washington. May 22.-With the dec
laration that he had accepted 'he
sponsibility for the Grand Trunk trans
actions to save the late J. p. Morgan.
Charles s. Mellen brought his tesu-
,nonv at the Interstate Commerce
Commissions New Haven Railroad III
vestigation to a climax to-day. He as
serted that he accepted the puruei' VI
on Indictment because he feared MI
Morgan. then in declining years. was
in such health that it would have Kiiied
him to have been involved.
Az result Of his testimony about
the Grand Trunk transaction Mr' Mel
len obtained immunity from prosecu-
tion.
Mr.. Mellen told Of conversation ne
had had with the present j. +. Morgan
in which Mr.. Morgan suggested a
change in the presidency OF the Ne"
Haven road. There appeared to be a
tinge of resentment in his tone.
at the time Mr.. Morgan called upon
me and thought the cnange IN the
nresidencv was desirable" he said. i
called his attention to the fact that l
had been suffering under the humilia-
tion of an undeserved indictment to
protect his father.
Meant Death to Father.
"He seemed quite affected. He
turned to the window to compose MS
feelings. and returned to the conversa-
tion with the remark that his fathers
condition of health at that time was
such that 1t would undoubtedly have
killed him if he had been indicted
That was the condition l understood
he was in when / undertook the respon-
sibility myself and took the indictment
that belonged to him."
Mr.. Mellen's testimony concerning
the Grand Trunk was part of an
understanding he had before he began
unfolding his tale of the amazing
financial transactions Of the New
Haven road. 1t is understood that his
counsel had declined to allow him TO
testify as sweepingly as he did until
Joseph W Folk, chief counsel OF the
commission. had agreed to allow his
Grand Trunk testimony. This was for
the obvious purpose Of giving to him
immunity from prosecution under an
indictment which had been hanging
over him for eighteen months.
After leaving the witness stand. how
ever, Mr.. Mellen said that he had no
fear Of the indictment. Why" he
added. that indictment would never
have been brought to trial. 1t was
brought Cor political purposes only, and
I had never any fear that 1t would
reach the courts"
Culver in MeIlen's Voice.
The former president Of the New
Haven was as fiippant and as defiant
as ever to-day in his replies TO Folks
jnterrogations. He showed little strain
from his four days ordeal on the stand,
but when he was asked if the late Mr..
Morgan had anything to do with the
Grand Trunk transaction his voice

Panic Follows Accident.
A chaotic scene followed the ac,i-
dent. Added to the cries Of those
struggling in the swift current Of 'he
river were the shrieks Of the injured
on the dock, the clang Of hospital am
balances as they rushed To the rescue
and the sharp orders Of the steamship
company's officers. Women became
hysterical and one man went violently
insane.
Panic seized the two thousand who
had gone to the pier to see friends and
relatives off. Men and women were
trampled, and efforts of rescuers were

far have the plans of the A c media
tors advanced that their informal con
versations" with the American and
Mexican delegates to-day were devoted
chiefly TO a discussion of the personnel
Of the provisional government which 1t
is proposed shall be placed In control
of affairs in Mexico, to restore peace
and order. institute certain fundamen-
tai reforms and ultimately conduct a
fair and free election for the selection
Of a President of the republic.
While no names were agreed upon,
and may not be for some time, several
were suggested and were taken under
consideration by the delegates, who
presumably will now devote their at
tention 10 investigating the qualifica-
tions Of the men whose names have
been suggested.
The report that pursuant to the
earnest, not to say insistent, represen-
tations of the Secretary of State the
Carranzistas had decided TO send to
Niagara Falls Jose Vasconcelos, the
attorney for the Waters-Pierce Oil
Company, who has been in New York
for some days comforting with Henry
Clay Pierce, caused something Of a
flutter, especially among the Mexican
delegates, until they learned that there
was not the slightest likelihood that
Vasconcelos would be admitted to the
conference.

The mere fact that the Carranzistas

belated realization Of the Importance

Premier Exponent of the Summers
Garden Dances.

Garden Dances.
Girls have you tried the aeroplane
glide?
It's more fun than shooting the
chutes, and it fits in TO any dance you
choose.
OF course it is altogether too siren
uOus for the ball room, but at a gar
den party. or on the porch to the mu-
sic of a photograph, it is quite feast
bic, and lends a lot Of gaiety to the
occasion.
The distinguishing feature of many
summer variations Of the dances of
the hour is this same tendency toward
the athletic. In the open air on a
cool summer evening you can start
the tango briskly, and then drop into
the familiar skating step. which can
be made extremely strenuous eXer-
else. as shown in the small picture
we have posed.
After a few measures of this. begin
a rapid waltz-whirl: then at the turn.
let the gentleman stand suddenly
still. and swing the lady high off her
feet. and clear around through a turn
and-a-half. as shown in our pose. 1t
looks difficult, but it's really very sim
pie. In fact. once started, you can't
help doing the aeroplane glide sue
cessfully.
If there is room it can be made
double glide. The lady can stand still
and well-braced, and whirl the gen.
tleman off his feet for one turn. ana
then the gentleman. stopping abrupt
~ can communicate the impetus of
his flight to the lady, whirling her
high through the air for a second
turn. In this movement il is import
ant that the arms should be crossed,
the mans right hand holding the
lady's right and his left her left.
