GETS DISSOLUTION PLAN
New Haven Boston and Maine Sen.
aration Scheme Laid Before
Attorney General. =.

After weeks of work on the part of
railroad officials and attorneys of the
Department of Justice, the plan for the
separation of the Boston and Maine and
the New York. New Haven and Hartford
railroads was laid today before Al
torney General McReynolds. Until today
the Attorney General had taken no active
part in the framing of the separation
agreement but had confided the depart
ment s policy to T. W. Gregory and Jesse
c. Adkins. assistants in the case.
In company with Howard Elliott, chair
man of the New Haven board and coun-
sci for that road, the two department
lawyers hoped to receive Mr.. McReyn-
DDS approval of five trustees and for the
details of separation which will put
the Boston and Maine out of the hands of
the New Haven.
It was generally agreed today that the
number of trus ees should be five, but
the two sides were unable to get together
before the conference with the Attorney
General AS to their length of service.
The trustees will be charged with the
disposition of the Boston and Maine
stock now owned by the New Haven and
through the control of which they will
conduct the affairs of the Maine road
New Haven officials We're anxious that
the trustees should be given as long a
time as possible in which to get rid of
this stock without loss to it, but the de-
partment attorneys held the trusteeship
period should be comparatively short.

For the District of Columbia, fair to-
night and Friday; slowly rising tempera-
ture; light variable winds.
The southern disturbance has advanced
to the North Carolina coast. Snow has
ceased, except in North Carolina, where
1t still continues. Nearly a foot of snow
has fallen in the interior of South Caro-
lima and over half a foot in Georgia. In
other parts of the country the weather
has been fair, with slightly higher tenn
peratures.
The south Atlantic disturbance will
probably pass off to sea today, followed
by fair and continued cold weather in
Atlantic coast states.
The outlook for the next thirty-six
hours is for fair weather with slight
upward tendency in the course of temper
ature.
The winds along the New England
coast will be moderate west: on the mid
die Atlantic coast moderate to brisk north
to northeast; on the south Atlantic coast
brisk northeast. shifting to northwest; on
the east gulf coast light north.
