PERCY R. TODD ID SUCCEED CHAS. 5. 5.
 MELLEN ON STAND
Government Will Probe New Haven's Alleged Attempt to Drive the Joy Line
 Out of Business

New York, October 23.--When Charles
 S. Mellen completes the present phase of
 his testimony in the trial of the II New
 York. New Haven and Hartford direc-
 tors, past and present. charged with con- spiracy under the sherman antitrust law,
 he probably. will be succeeded on the stand by Percy R. Todd, president of the
 Bangor and Aroostook railway, a sub sidiary of the Boston and Maine This became known today with the arrival
 of the latter in New York.
 Mr. Todd was from 1901 to 190s second
 vice president of the New Haven taking
 that office three years after MT. Me1len
 relinquishd 1t to become for a period
 president of the Northern Pacific As
 traffic head of the road during the time
 when the government alleges the New
 Haven was taking steps to suppress uc
 competition of Independent steamship
 lines. MT. Todd is expected to furnish
 much of the evidence in regard to this phase of the New Ravens activities. He
 probably will not take the stand before Wednesday, as the federal attorneys ex- pect to occupy at least two more days with MT. Mellen.
 Among matters concerning which 1t is expected Mir. Todd will be questioned Is the governments accusation that the New Haven attempted 10 drlVe the Joy steam ship line out of business. The govern ment's bill of particulars alleges that among the steps taken to embarrass the line was an agreement with the Long IIsand railroad that it would not sell a steamship to the Joy line; an agreement with a number of other Long Island sound lines not to ship freight to Provi- dence by the Joy line. but by the New Haven; an agreement with William Rockefeller, the Standard oil company, H. NJ, Flagler. and the Florida East Coast railway that the railway company should
 not renew to the Joy line it's charter of the steamship Cocoa; another between the Florida Railway company and the New Haven not to lease the steamship Martinique to the Joy line; an agreement with the Pennsylvania railroad and other | trunk lines that they would refrain from
 making traffic arrangements with water l competitors of the New Haven, includ- l ing the Joy line and seven other lines.

Some Of Them Are Trained to War Al.
most From Babyhood.
One may often see In the English
Illustrated periodicals photographs OF
tiny soldiers about seven or eight years
old gravely saluting elderly officers
These diminutive warriors are boy re-
cruits holding regular and dignifed
places in the Indian army. Each Sikh
regiment is allowed twelve of these
little chaps who are trained almost
from babyhood. They are each paid 8
rupees and 8 annas month and at the
age of sixteen enter the regular army.
The Sikh soldiers are a most interest
ing and remarkable part Of the British
army in India. Their conduct in from.
tier engagements has distinguished
them as brave. steady and devoted to
their English officers. Yet about fifty
years ago these well ordered soldiers
were fanatical savages, who in their
mad uprisings shook the power of
Great Britain. Once conquered they
accepted British rule and were trained
and disciplined into well equipped
army Of 10000 soldiers. They formed
part of the force that subdued the mu-
tiny The Hodson's horse troops, which
helped capture Delhi, were composed
of Sikhs whose devoted service to their
leader made them famous,
Their scarlet sashes and turbans
gained them the name of "Flamingos."
Their descendants are no less deter.

A political junta In London has ap'
parently begun an attack on President
Wilson, The war Is the issue and the
President is being roasted in Assooiat-
ed Press dispatches for not protesting
and taking sides with the Allies when
the neutrality of Belgium was violat'
ed. 1t was to be expected that every
effort possible would be made to draw
this country into the conflict, and such
was foreseen by the administration,
with the result that policy OF
"hands off, was taken at the begin
ming and has been strictly adhered to
since. As signatory power Of the
Hague, the United States recognizes
the neutrality Of Belgium, and for
that matter, the rights Of all neu-
trails, but only France. England and
Russia went so far as to guarantee the
neutrality OF Belgium. and 1t is pe-
coming more and more apparent that
this guarantee was made for strategic
al and political reasons. However
in face Of such bitter and undeserved
attacks as the iunta sent out through
the Associated Press on Tuesday,
America will eoutinue to feed the
starving Bslgians while the big Eur
opean powers combat to turn ner
bloodsoaksd soil into shambles. The
gratitude Of England as WHOLE TO-
ward this nation, may not be CUES
toned. but her restrictions in censor
shin Of acrimonious attacks against
friendly President and bis nation arc
