Stand.

NEW YORK, Oct. 26.-rhat the late

the testimony of Charles S. Mellen,
former New Haven president, at to-
days session of the conspiracy trial
of former and present directors of the
road.
Mellen said Morgan threatened to
force his resignation because he (Mel-
len) had induced the board of direc-
tors to approve the acquisition of
competing lines in New England. Mel
len learned of tho threats, he said,
and came to a New York for a talk
with Morgan.
IT asked Mr.. Morgan about the re-
ported threat" said Mellen, and he
answered: Yes. that's just what | in
tend to do After I explained my
plan to him he said: I have been
misinformed. l have been used as
dormet;' that was all there was to
Mr. Morgan's interference"
Mellen read and explained a letter
he wrote to the board of directors,
allowing acquisition by the New Ha-
ven of all competing lines in New
England. He wrote. he said, that the
New Haven was now in a position to
dictate the transportation situation in
New England since it controlled all
lines in that territory down to the

NJ CARROLL $ NAME
ON SAMPLE BALLOT
indications Are Kearny Demo-
crat Will Be MayoraIty Can
didate Against His Wish.

There is no longer any question as
to whether the name of Walker w.
McCarroll will appear on the ballot
next Tuesday as Democratic candi-
date for mayor of Kearny. It will.
This deduction is made from the fact
that McCarroll's name appears on the
sample ballots. which were received
yesterday by Town Clerk William B.
Ross. The sample is a facsimile of
the ballot to be voted next Tuesday,
save that the color is different.
Although it was announced by
County Clerk Joseph McGovern a few
days ago that Mr.. McCarrolPs name
would appear on the ballot notwith--
standing the desire of the candidate
to withdraw, there was a belief that
some law might be found which would
provide the county clerk with power
to permit the withdrawal. The clerk
declared his office could not find such
a law.
The candidate is now on a business
trip West, and it is doubtful whether
he will be back in time for election.
Prior to his departure. Mr.. McCarroll
at a meeting of the Searny Demo-
cratic Association, declared he would
not remain in the race. Prior 20 that
meeting he had filed a declination
with Town Clerk William 3. Ross.
His reason for quitting the race,
Mr.. McCarroll said, was based on the
fact that internal strife within the
Democratic ranks, due to the Airing
ton postma stership squabble, had in
jured his chances for election.
Mr.. McCarroll was the Democratic
candidate for mayor in 1913. In that
election he received 1,093 votes, as
against 1,241 for Robert f. Torrance,
the present incumbent. John 7.
Howe who was a mayoralty candi-
date at the 1918 election, got 410
tallies.
The candidates for mayor this year
besides Mr.. McCarroll are Mayor
Torrance, who has the regular Repub-
lican and the Progressive Roosevelt
nomination, and Charles Anderson,
Socialist.
The various election boards wese
busy last night preparing the sample
ballots for mailing.
