Mellen Testimony Details Self Sacrifice and Conspiracy Claims
Former New Haven president Mellen says he sacrificed to indictment to shield Morgan as Kelley profited from trolley stock deals. He cites confidential May letter and widespread advertising to push public opinion, describes passes and rebates, and names Boston figures, directors, and transactions involving Rutland, Boston and Albany, Waterbury, and other utilities. He asserts fair prices but admits hold ups and nonwritten pressures shaped deals.
