Internal AFFAIRS Of tho Billiard company.
which the Government alleges was
owned. controlled and directed by the
New Haven. There was plenty Of EVIL
dence about the sudden financial rise of
John L. Billiard, the aged Connecticut
coal dealer. but nothing about his COM
pany.
PAia High for D. 4 NJ.
An Illustration Of the disadvantage
under which the prosecution appeared
to be laboring was one deal described
by Mr.. Mellen. in which Kidder. Pea
body 4 Co. bought 10000 shares Of
Boston and Maine for him at about
$3ss.000 more than the open market
price.
Mr.. Bats wa very anxious to md
out where that profit went. but every
time he mentioned the Boston railroad
holding bill or the Massachusetts, State
House he WA stopped by objection.
Mr.. Meiien then could only finish his
narrative. The stock had cost him S3.-
100000 or q little more. He had re-
ported this to the executive committee
Of h New Haven. which had suggested
that he take II up with the Boston and
Maine committee. That committee had
advised him to sell It. He went to
John L. Billiard, who promptly bought
It. and Mr.. Mellen financed him in the
purchase.
After the Boston railroad holding
company bill had been passed and the
New Haven wa thus enabled to take
over the Boston and Maine stock. an
agreement was made by which all Of
Mr.. BILLIARDS. stock went back to the
New Haven.
Surprise for Defence.
To he surprise Of tho defence the
Government put In evidence the reply
made by the New Haven directors to
the inquiry Of the Massachusetts Leg
islature dated February 1. 1908.
The Legislature wanted to know what
the New Haven owned and also about
the Billiard company. The famous para
graph in which the New Haven's friendly
relationship with Mr.. Billiard was
acknowledged was explained by Mr..
Mellen. II has been claimed that this
was inserted by Lewis Cass Ledyard
as a self-serving declaration. Mr.. Mel
len declared that II was put in by Mr..
Ledyard's insistence that the reply
should be absolutely frank and full.
The cas- will 60 on to-day and this
evening viii adjourn over Thanksgiving
and until next Monday.
