CHOATEATTACKS
Govt ATTITUDE
TOWARD U.S.M.
Declares Government En-
tirely Misunderstands the
Clause in Leases Requir-
ing That Certain Machines
Be Used Together---Sim-
ply Continued System

Boston, June "a spirited attack
on the attitude of the government to-
ward the leases of the United Shoe
Machinery Co. was made today by
Charles f. Choate. counsel for the
company, in the course of his opening
arguments today in the government
dissolution suit
The government, he declared, en-
tirely misunderstood the character and
effect of the tying clause" in the
leases whereby it was required that
certain machines be used together.
Contradicting what he said was the
governments contention that the leas
ing system was resorted to by the de-
PENDANT to maintain the monopoly
which was slipping through it's fin
gers by the expiration of the basic
patents on it's principal machinery
counsel declared that the leasing sys-
tenn with tying clauses and other
restrictions was in effect before the
organization of the United Co., in 1899.
The three companies that combined to
form the United had all used the leas-
ing system with restrictions he said.
All that the United Co. did, counsel
added, was to continue the system
then in effect with certain modifica-
tons from time to time as the needs
of the business required.

ENCAMPMENT OF
End maine INF.
FOR AUGUSTA IN
JULY OR AUGUST

Adjutant General Albert Greenlaw
announced Wednesday evening that
there will be an encampment of the
End Maine Infantry in Augusta the
latter part of July or the first part
of August, contrary to previous plans.
According to the former plans the en-
campment comes one year and the
next year the militia joins an encamp-
ment with other states. But on ac-
count of the fact that the joint camp
for instruction for the militia and reg
ular army-to have been held in Mass
achusetts-will not be held. an en-
campment will be held in the city.
1t is probable that some of the reg
ular troops will be in the encampment,
which will last about 10 days. A three
day march with wagons is upon the
program for the encampment.
Adjutant General Greenlaw will
have charge Of the State troops and
Lieut. Butcher will act in his capacity
as regular army officer Of the End In
fantry.

Niagara Falls, Ont, June 3.-Media-

COMMUNICATIVE chief of the Constitu-

communication from the three South
American diplomats which opens the
door for Constitutionalist representa-
ton in the conferences here. Upon his

force will continue to fight their way

ton. The United States government

JOHNSON CAN'T
GO TO FEDERAL
CLUB DECREE
BLOCKS RAIDS

Chicago, June 3.-First blood in the
battle over Chief" Johnson was scor-
ed to the credit of organized baseball
today when Judge Foell, unfolding
every contention of the Cincinnati Ma
tional League Club, made permanent
the injunction which prevented the
pitcher from playing with the Fed
eral League.
1t was generally reported that a
wholesale desertion of players in or
ganized ball to the Independents would
follow a decision favoring the Fed
erals. If this were true. today's de-
cislon brought to the club within the
pale of the National Agreement more
cause for rejoicing than the bare re-
tention of Johnson would have occa-
stoned, but it brought to the new
league a correspondingly greater rea-
son for depression, for the expected
raid, 1t was said, was depended on to
strengthen weak spots in the Federal
teams.
Both sides, realizing that the decis-
ion marked only a single round in
long fight, prepared to renew the COM
bat in a higher court.

For Growth of New England

Many of the properties thus acquir
ed, it was stated, had only a prospec-
tive value the natural growth of New
England being taken into considera-
ton by the directors.
Mr.. Elton, questioned on this point
by William Nelson Cromwell, who APP
peared as counsel for several of the
directors, declared that the purchase
for s11. 000, 900 of the New York West
chester & Boston road, the stock of
which Former President Mellen of the
New Haven testified, was worth only
ten cents a pound" was for the pur-
pose of obtaining a foothold in the
metropolitan district and securing
greater and better terminal facilities
in New York.
Mr. Elton testified that the diree-
tors of the New Haven had changed
their methods and now We're not in
fueneed so much by one or two men
like j. Pierpont Morgan and Mr.
len, as they formerly were. He said
that directors now direct, and had
learned great many things" He add
ed that President Elliott was more de-
liherate than Mr.. Mellen and did not
rush them off their feet
Mr. Skinner said it was his belief that
if things had been allowed to go on
and the New Haven and it's officials
had not been subjected to .inimical
inquiries and action the property
would have pulled out all right, per-
haps i'll five years" He asserted that
Mr.. Mellen could have retained the
presidency of the road had he so de-
sired as he had a majority of the di-
rectors with him.
Mr.. Skinner will resume his testi-
mony when the inquiry is continued
tomorrow. He will be followed on the
stand by Laurence Minot Of Boston,
VINO was a director of the New Hav-
ell during a part of Mr.. Mellen's ad-
ministration.

Mediators Confident

The mediators tonight are confident
Gen. Carranza will send ENJOYS here.
Instead of believing the negotiations
would be indefinitely prolonged by
such a course, they think a pacific
settlement would be more quickly OBJ
tanned as all parties in the Mexican
question would be here to shape the
program of peace.
There were no conferences today
with either the Mexican or American
delegates.
Just what was contained in the note
from the mediators to Gen. Carranza,
transmitted today by Mr.. Zubaran at
Washington to the Constitutionalist
chief was not revealed here.
There is every disposition on the
part of the mediators to treat the in
terest of the Constitutionalists fair

Washington, June S.-James E. Ell
ton of Waterbury, CT, and William
Skinner of Holyoke, Mass, directors
of the New York, New Haven & Hart
ford Railroad testifying today before
the interstate Commerce Commission
at its investigation into the affairs of
of the road, said the acquisition of
trolleys in various sections Of New
England, steamship lines and other
properties, at a cost of many millions
of dollars, constituted a part of the
New Haven's comprehensive plan TO
increase its facilities.

Belief Expressed That Rebel

Washington, June 3.-Whether the
Constitutionalists of Mexico are to
participate in peace negotiations at
Niagara Falls probably will be deter
mined before another day has pass
ed. Tonight agents of General Car
rama, the revolutionary chieftain,
were in direct Geographic communi-
cation with the Constitutionalist lead
er after having forwarded to him the
answer of the South American media
tors to his message of protest carried
to Niagara Falls last week.
Publication of the message of the
mediators was withheld here until
General Carranza has determined up
on his reply. Rafael Zubaran, at the
head of the Constitutionalist agency
in Washington, would not discuss the
nature of the mediators proposals.
Persons in touch with the Constitu-
tionalist agents, however, ventured
the suggestion that the terms upon
which the mediators proposed to re-
ceive the Constitutionalists into the
peace negotiations would be declined.
