But personally, I'd say to buy tt." Mellen swore, too, that he saw Secre tary of Interior Lane about the propo sition as Lane was then on the inter state commerce commission. To both Lano and- Roosevelt, Mellon suggested the possibility that Canadian capitalists would acquire tho road. Lane, ho said, agreed that it would be better to acquire the line, which runs from Now JSngland into Canada, be cause of its militury importance to the United States. Government attorneys sought to draw from Mellen nn ndmksiou that he him self caused rumors nbout the possible Canadian purchase, but Mellen denied he hald sent agents to Canada to spread the story. Judge Hunt ruled thnt no evidence purporting to show that the New Hav en road corrupted the Massachusetts legislaturo was admissablc.
