Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree, regarded

BILLIARD PROFIT
ANGERED MORGAN
Thought $2,74S,7O0 in New
Haven Deal Too Much,
Mellen Says.
DIRECTORS MINUTES
RULED OUT AS WRONG
Just 81 900, 900 Out of the Way,
Ex-President of Railroad
Testifies.

Charles S. Mellen's memory and the
duly attested and signed minutes OF
the New Haven directors meeting OF
October 8, 1909, were in conflict at the
New Haven trial yesterday. To the
satisfaction of the defence, the court
ruled to accept Mr.. Mellen's word.
The divergence between Mr.. Mellcn
and the records related 10 the dealings
between the New Haven and John l.
Billiard and his company. The specific
points involved were, first, the ,94s
shares of Boston e. Maine stock which
the New Haven company was prohib-
tied from holding in its own name, and
20 hold which, il is alleged, the Billiard
company was created, and. secondly,
what amount Of Billiard company as
sets was in the hands Of the New
Haven.
r. l.. Bats, chief government coun-
sci, holding the minute book Of the
directors meeting in his hand, stated
TO the court that there was incorpo-
rated in the minutes of the October 8
meeting a report, purporting to come
from Mellen, then president Of the
New Haven, regarding the Billiard
matter.
He went on to explain that M,-len
declared the report was incorrect.
Bats asked leave to introduce IL as
evidence, nevertheless, to be supported
by other data, and to allow the jury
10 pass upon it as a question of fact.
"The figures In that report are in
correct. There Is little discrepancy
Of 81 100000, that's ALL" Mellen said.
"This report Is in the minutes signed
in the handwriting of John G. Parker,
the secretary. Do you know where the
report came FROM" Bats asked Mel
len.
II am sure I do not" Mellen replied.
at is Mr.. Parker's handwriting, and !
imagine the figures in it were taken
from some memorandum found in my
portfolio. | brought the matter before
the board and suppose made an oral
report. but this is radically different
from what said"
"May il not be possible that these
represent the figures you presented in
your oral report?" asked Judge Hunt.
ooh, no, there is no possibility of
that; they are too incorrect" Mellen
replied, and the judge ruled that the re-
port should not be read in evidence.
Chow long after the report was made
was there an objection raised to it by
you?" Bats asked, reluctant to drop
the matter.
"Within two months and half"
Mellen replied.
"Did you try to do anything about 1T
in the meantime? ?" asked Bats.
"Oh, yes, had several conferences
with Lewis Cass Ledyard about II and
wanted to tear the page out, but he
said: 'Oh. good God! You can't do
that; it would be a crime-that |
wanted to commit a crime" Mellen
said, "and it was never changed"
The evidence which the government
failed to have admitted was in support
of its contention that the Billiard Com
pany was nothing but New Haven
dummy, owned entirely by it.

$50 it is not purposed calling the
rulers of tho nations at war into con-
ference with your organization
"That question will be answered at
the same time that we announce our
plans fully"
Mr.. Ford was asked what made him
so certain that the men at the front
were opposed to war. The automobile
maker turned to Louis P. Lochner, of
Chicago, secretary of the National
Peace Federation, who is working with
Mr.. Ford on the peace plan. Mr.. Loeb
ner said:
81 was in Germany and in France
shortly after the war started. In Ber-
lin is a headquarters of the 1nterna-
tional Society OF Socialists. There the
Socialist leaders received letters from
Socialists at the front, declaring that
none of the men in action wanted the
struggle to continue. In France |
learned the same thing about the
French soldiers, who-as was the case
with the Germans-reported that they
had learned their enemies wanted the
war to end. The Socialists in Berlin
get together quietly once each week
and go over the reports they receive
from comrades in the trenches. The
German government knows of these
meetings, but they are not matters Of
common knowledge"
Mr.. Ford has not the slightest doubt
that his expedition will be welcomed at
every foreign port reached by the
Oscar. His bubbling confidence was
most evident in the answer he gave to
a question of whether he will take an
active part in Mr.. Wizards Washington
campaign.
"I'll get to work with Mr.. Willard" he
said, Gimme lately on my return from
abroad after the war is over"
It could not be learned yesterday
whether the peace liner will be engaged
for round trip. Mr.. Lochner said he
understood the charter called for only
a one-way trip. w. Benton Crisp, of

SHAW SEES PEACE
In WORLD LEAGUE
Says Severe German Defeat
Might Mean Alliance, Between
Berlin and United States.
fBy Cable TO TIE Tribune. ]

London, Nov. ga league Of West
ern civilization as a preventive against
future war was the suggestion MADE py
George Bernard Shaw in an address de-
livered here last night. He pictured a
combination of white civilization from
the Rockies to the Carpathians organ
lied on a democratic basis in this
league. He wished to see America,
France, England and Germany In the
league, Joined, for their own protee-
ton, by Belgium and the Scandinavian
states. Britain, he declared, was show
ing Germany that she had better be her
friend than her enemy.
II do not believe" Mr.. Shaw said,
"there can be any peace in the world
until there is peace between England,
France and Germany. II Great Britain
defeated Germany very heavily the lat
ter might try to seek q combination
with the United States. She might say
to America. We have been beaten by
the British; this terrible naval power
we have been unable to resist. You see
how we are penned in. You are in the
same position, and had you not better
form combination with usF
Britain might drive Germany and
America into one another's arms by
carrying victory too far"
Mr.. Shaw said war was the funda-
mental fault Of the democrats and so
cialists of this country, and democracy
must be far more active in the future.

board we should have group OF men
TO pass on the production of things de,
signed to benefit mankind in Lire and
property. instead of turning the at
tention of these experts 20 the making
of devices that take life and destroy

great minds-and many more-and
have them suggest improvements IN

Of existence Then men in this depart

Of more money, and in pointing out 10

Much of Mr.. Ford's confidence Is
based on the hearty cooperation Of the
Women's Peace party-with whose
members he conferred yesterday-and
on the belief that the numerous peace
organizations abroad will joyously join
their efforts with his.

made up the rest of the days testi-
mony, the most important relating 70
the fight in the board of directors over
the amount Of compensation Billiard re-
ceived for his handling of the New
Ravens 109,948 shares of Boston q
Maine stock. According to one method
of analyzing the matter, he got s2,fse'-
700.
1t was shown that the Legislature OF
Massachusetts, directed the New Haven
TO reacquire this block of stock, OF
which it had NORMALLY Invested itself
by selling it to Billiard, and put 1t IN
the Boston Railroad Holding Company,
and it was in this turnover that Billiard
is alleged TO have grown rich.
Mellen told of j. P. Morgan's indig-
nation when he learned upon mis- return
having been away while the matter
was being communicative size OF
the Billiard profits.
ait is an unreasonable profit Mr..
Morgan said" Mellen testified. HE
was very much excited and said he
could not and would not stand for it.
I explained 10 him that Billiards profit
was more nominal than real, as Billiard
had taken some of our subsidiary Sc
curities at their face value when some
1t was shown that as result Of this
dispute a minute was adopted october
2, 1909 by the New Haven board Of di-
rectors approving the Billiard contract
with a provision allowing a reasonable
compensation" to Billiard for his SER
vices and risk.
This proviso, Mellen, said, was pre-
pared by Lewis Cass Ledyard, acting
for Mr.. Morgan. Mr.. Morgan thought
that, as a friend Of the New Haven. Bill
lard should not try to make a profit of
s2,74S,7OO on a deal involving only sl6,-
100000.
81 explained to him that no one could
say Just how much Billiard would
make Mellen said. "The New Haven
had no option, since the Legislature
had ordered the repurchase of the
stock so that it could be turned over
to the Boston Railroad Holding Com
pany. The resolution did not alter the
validity of the contract we had already
made to buy the stock under orders
from the Legislature.
"The real reason why the clause
about reasonable profits was added was
to enable me to go to Billiard and try
to negotiate with him for better
deal"
