May File Suit This Month.
Dispatches from Washington last
night said that it was regarded as
probable that a dissolution suit would
be filed by the attorney general some
time this month unless the New Ila
van accepted the termsrof the sep-
1oration bill. \ir McReynolds refused
,to say definitely the he was planning
Ito file a suit although it was known
Ithat a suitwasprepared.

attorney general of the United States

Cement and Nails to our line,
will accept the terms of a bill for the!
separation of the New Haven and the
Boston and Maine, passed by the Mas-
sachusetts Legislature before it ad-l
journed Tuesdhy night, but the direc-I
tors of the New Haven road in New
York last night, in a statement to the
stockholders, declared that they could:
not accept the terms of the Massachu-
setts bill.
Officials here regard it as not Im-
possible that the suit may be filed
some time this month in accordance
with the original understanding be-
tween Attorney General McReynolds
and Chairman Elliott of the New
Haven board, Mr. McReyiiolds agreed
to hold off the suit while the rail-
roads and state came to an agreement, ‘
but not later than this month.
Wilson Regards Law as Fair.
I
‘rovernor Walsh while at the \viiue'
House yesterday to urge a federal ap
propriatioii for the Salem fire suffer-
ers_ discussed the New Haven itualion
briefly with President Wilson and
Attorney General hiclleyiiolds. ’I‘Iio‘
president expressed the hope that a
suit might yet be avoided. The gover-
nor declared, however, that the new
Iilw necessary to the New llaveii‘s
disposition of lioston‘ and Maine stock
was considered fair] and that if the
railroad officials would not accept it.
the suit was the only alternative. Mr.
llclleynolds reused to say definitely
that. he was planning to file a suit.
although it is known that his case is
prepared.
Negotiations Expected.
Some negotiations with the railroad
oificiais, pressing them to accept the
situation as it now ties, are expected
slionly. Should they fail, the suit un-
doubtedly will be gled before the end
of the month according to the admin
istration's original. plan,

that the dissatifaction of the
