ooo,ooo had gone which MT. Nor gan's purchasing committee had paid down in New Haven notes. Mir. Nor gan asked if he thought he knew more about such things than the committee lawyer. MT. Mellen "al- lowed he didn't" and when his angry directors pressed him still to find out. he said he offered to delegate any one of them to try to get the information.
 But they all 'ducked.' he testi- fled.
 J. P. Morgan. the younger. later publicly denied any implication that his father had taken any responsi- bility out of Mir. Mellen's hands.
 Shielded J. P. Morgan
 MT. Mellen was indicted in connec- ton with the third deal for his ef- forts in blocking the plan of the Grand Trunk to invade New Eng land with competing line to Provi- dence, R. I. He was charged with conspiracy In violation of the Sher- man antitrust act, but Mir. Mellen said he voluntarily assumed the re- sponsibiity of the indictment to shield MT. Morgan, whose health had failed.
 To the end. Mir. Mellen said he was proud to be called "Morgan's man. and agreed that the bankers word always was law in New Haven affairs. He further insisted that but for the bankers death time would have justified the New Hayen's out side investments in the benefit that would have accrued to New England through successful consolidation. He asserted that Mr. Morgan few months before he died was about to finance the New Haven's require ments with stock issue to have been underwrltten at S1o0 a share.

BOYS SIPHON GAS
 FROM PARKED CAR
Run Out Of Fuel and Steal It
 With Hose

One of the most unusual cases 10 come to the attention of the police in some time is that of Nicholas Steffick, aged .U, of 222 Bassett street, and Benjamin Sanders aged -0. Of 4S Shuttle Meadow avenue, who were arrested last night by Sergeant r. A. McAyay and Officer David Doty on charges of taking an automobile without permission Of the owner, and thett Of gasoline. In police court today, they pleaded not guilty and the trial was continued until next Tuesday. Attorney Alfred Levitt represented Sanders and ask cl that q nominal bond be nN-d, but Judge SaXe ordered Sl.ooJ in each case. He said. however, that in the event that there is difficulty en- coun;ered in raising tha- amount, ne will consider q lower bond,
 About l0:3O last night Officer Doty saw the young men near an automobile owned ny John Dutrich Of 4S3 Main street, on Prospect street, and also noticed a can near by. He questioned the young men but they denied that they knew any thing of the can or the car. On further investigation it was noted that there was a siphon in the car and 1t was wet and had the odor Of gasoline on il. DutriCh identified the can and siphon, also his auto mobile, and denied the story of one of the boys that he had permission 10 take the car. The boys differed in their stories to Sergeant MCAyay after Officer Doty brought them 10 police headquarters, one saying they had been on a drive 10 Elm wood, while the other had another explan- ation of the use to which the car was put.
 IL developed that the boys had used the siphon 10 take gasoline out of the tank on a car owned by Ben jamin Gordon of 14S7 Stanley street which was parked on Walnut street. After having siphoned 1t into the can, they planned to put it into the tank on the Dutrich car, according to their admissions to the police, and they also admitted having had the car without Dutrich's permission prior to last night, the police say.
 Sergeant McAvay learned that the car was taken out of Dutrich's garage in the rear of 1l2 Glen street where Dutrich conducts the New Britain Body Works. It was a simple matter 10 open the door of the garage, and keys were used to unlock the door of the car and turn the ignition. The police say one Of the boys had the keys, having ob- served the type used after which he obtained them so that the use of the car might be easier. Dutrich denied that he had employed one of the youths, as they claimed in their statement 10 the police.
 Mir. Gordon was unable to start his car, as the gasoline had been drained off unknown to him, and he s,nd a friend worked until early this uprning. believing there was some taiu~ wrong with the mechanism. 'rhc warrant on which the boys were charged in court, placed the value of he gasoline at 70 cents.

 Came to New Haven
 The New York. New Haven and Hartford. deeming Mr. Mellen too powerful to be aligned against 1t with a rival, proceeded to bid him away from the Boston post and made him second vice-president. In this. his first connection with the New Haven he was instrumental in forcing the New York Central to give a larger division on business ex- changed. Influential stockholders of the New York Central gained the car of J. Pierpont Morgan and caused him to take a dislike to the young official. Feeling that a man in a mere s12, 900 job could not af- ford to incur the ill-will of a power full banker. MT. Mellen went to Mir. Morgan personally and told his side, winning the banker over. When the latter in 1897 sought man who could build up the Northern Pacific it was Mir. Mellen he selected.
 MT. Mellen's six years in the west made his reputation in the railroad held secure and in 1908 MT. Morgan recalled him to head what was said 10 be the bankers pet" railroad. Mir. MelleH's ill-starred decade with the New Haven coincided with a period when Wall street was think ing only in hundreds of millions. Some of this splurge seemed re- fected in the three most unpopular deals the New Haven attempted dur ing that time.

 Just before the panic of 1907, Mir. Mellen gained control of the Boston and Maine, a merger which was to make the New Haven dominant in New England. He later said its acquisition came at the wrong time, being forced upon him to prevent the road going elsewhere. Subsequent efforts to protect the purchase from hostility of the Massachusetts legis- lature cost additional millions be- fore the consolidation was finally lcgaliZed in 1909.
 For the second deal the pur- chase of the New York, Westchester X Boston, Mir. Mellen disclaimed re- sponsibility. He said 1t was mada over his protest, and that property worth only s5,0Oo.oOo eventually cost the New Haven close to 5,000,O0o.

 Avoided All Display. Youssef had pride in his race to the highest degree, He held 10 many
 picturesque customs, but avoided
 display and appeared mostly with
 studied reserve. The affection of
 the Moroccan people for their Mas ter" was evident on all of the rare
 occasions when he was seen in daz- zling white, leading a procession to the Mosque accompanied by the fla nous Black Guard' composed of slaves.
 The fratricidal wars which pre- ceded his reign convinced Youssef that Morocco could not find tran quility If she continued to shut her self in from the outside world. De- parting from the tradition of his dy- nasty, he abandoned the old capital, Fez, and took up his residence at
 Rabat so as to be near the direct ing hand of the French protectorate.
 This act, more than any other, im- pressed his subjects with the new conception of things that was hence forth to guide him.
 With the Allies. Yousset had been on the throne
 less than two years when the great
 war broke out, but Morocco had been so transformed that he was
 oL to A1,ot general: You can send your troops
 home to fight for your country.
 Morocco will go with you in heart and those of her sons that you can
 use in your army will go too" General Lyautey sent back home
 his colonial divisions and among them the Moroccan brigade that fought valiantly on the banks of the
 river Ourco at the battle of the Marne. Throughout the hostilities, co went on and continued after the armistice until trouble, which broke out in the Spanish riff, overflowed into the zone of the French protec- torate. Youssef aided in every way that he could to repress the move ment which finally collapsed when Abd- FL -krimf the famous Riffian leader. surrendered last year. AS for the Riff itself, the Sultan was al ways somewhat indifferent as to it's fate, since it had never recognized the authority of the Sultans of Morocco.
 A sort Of apotheosis of Youssef's reign was his visit 10 Paris last year to dedicate a mosque built by the French in the heart of the city in homage for the aid given by the Moroccans during the great war.
