COURT ALLOWS WIDE
RANGE OF TESTIMONY
IN NEW HAVEN CASE
Decision Permitting Evidence
of Railroads Absorption of
Electric Lines a Blow to
the Defense
STIFLING COMPETITION

NEW YORK. oct 2s.-Judge Hunt, In
the United States District Court today
dealt a severe blow to the New Haven
defendants when he declared the court
would let IN all evidence concerning the
New Havens dabbling In electric lines
in New England, whether they were IN
terstate lines or not
The ruling came when the defense OBJ
iected to n letter read by the Govern
ment concerning the acquisition by the
New Haven of a lO-mile strip of trolley
line running from Meriden to Naugatuck
in Connecticut TO shut of competition
from a proposed electric line paraneling
the New Haven.
The letter tended TO show how the New
Haven directors left no stone unturned
to choke off all electric as well as ran
and water competition i'm New England
Today the Government entered into the
third stage Of New Haven's expansion
period" under Charles S. Mellen-its swal-
lowing UP of trolley lines. Already the
prosecution has shown how the New
Haven absorbed the rail and water trans
portation facilities of New England.
The defense objected to the Connecticut
electric line evidence on the ground that
il was not an interstate line.
THE Court" said Judge Hunt, in over
ruling the objection, will admit all evil
dcnce tending to show the acquisition by
the New Haven of property to prevent
! competition, whether electric or steam or
water. The New Haven is an interstate
system. and II these acts alleged show
| conspiracy to prevent interstate compe-
| tition, the evidence is competent"
| The prosecution received its first severe
! jolt when Judge Hunt ruled out evidence
| that John NJ. Hall, who succeeded Charles
! 7. Clark as president of the New Haven
entered into negotiations with blind
boss" Brayton, of Rhode Island, to pre-
vent the Central Railway and Electric
Company, of New Britain, from building
| a trolley line paralleling the New Haven
1t was Judge Hunts first important
| ruling against the Government.
The Government had sought to prove by
a series of letters from Hall to Braytor
| that the former had said the New Haver
! wanted KILLED off, a bill in the Legisla'
ture against trolley lines paralleling steam
| railroads.
1--WE want no more such measures If i
| can be helped" one Of the letters said.
The bill was amended to provide tina
no electric line should parallel n stean
line unless the public welfare de
mand it."

uplift. defending it when assailed,
and to plead for it that justice and

dominant race; and lastly. his eff
orts have been directed to bring

on this and other subjects, Mr..

very many years he has been a
contributor to the colum ms of the
