III both had been competed DOtn Wouiu
have been failures.
81 went TO Mr.. Mellen in 1906 and sug-
gested to him the advisability of purchas-
ing the two lines and constructing the
one most advantageous TO the New Ha-
ven. lie told me he would take the mat
ter up with the board of directors. Later
he advised me that a committee, consist
ing OF the late J. r. Morgan, William
Rockefeller and Mr.. Miller had been APP
pointed to take up the question
How the Deal Was Effected.
"I met this committee, Mr.. Mellen being
present. and entered into an agreement
with them, under terms of which l was
TO acquire for the New Haven at least
two-thirds OF the outstanding securities
of the New York, Westchester & Boston
and Port Chester roads. together with
their construction companies. and under
the direction OF an engineer to be appoint
ed by the New Haven TO construct the
line they decided would be most favorable
to them.
I'm this contract the New Haven was
to furnish the money, and D. +. Morgan
& Co. were named as their bankers. AS
acquired the securities I advised the New
Haven Company of the amounts OF
vsed me 10 get it from J. p. Morgan & Co.
After ! acquired the securities, in order
TO facilitate the handling, the New Haven
suggested. and had organized, the Mill
brook company. All of the securities and
obligations | had purchased were deliv-
cred by me to J. =. Morgan 81 Co. who
in exchange for them returned to me the
obligations | had given them for money
advanced to make purchases.
-. =. Morgan & co. in turn gave the
securities to the Mllbrook Company.
Under my contract with the New
Haven they had the right TO cancel the
agreement with me at any time, and |
was obligated TO return 10 them at any
time the entire capital stock OF the Mill
brook Company.
In october. 1907, was advised by the
New Haven that they desired to cancel the
contract, and IL was cancelled.
There is something very important
that must be understood In these trans

rectly or indirectly to !. r. Morgan x
Co. or any one connected with the New
Haven road, except the interest on my
loans from j. Z. Morgan & Co.. which in
terests I am advised was credited by
them to the New Haven.
"rhe whole transaction was n combina-
ton of two competing lines that the New
Haven needed, and was for the purpose
OF getting an entry into New York The
New Haven got n bargain. | believe II
any one had come 10 the board OF di
rectors OF the New Haven and said can

There is much interest being man
ifested among the ranchers in this
section in the growth of the potato
The sandy soil near Wilder is the
best ever for the culture of this vege-
table. Some time ago a meeting of
the potato growers was held, and a
meeting is called for Monday night,
April 18th, at the Odd Fellows Hall
in Wilder, and everyone interested
in potato culture is urged to be pres
ent. Already the success of the
growth of the potato is more than an
experiment and there is no doubt but
that Wilder potatoes will win very
creditable place on the market of the
land.
