tration railroad bill stripped of man
or its original features but still pro
viding for the creation pf a com
merce court and the regulation of rail
way agreements consolidations se
curities rates and routes all as am
endments to the interstate commerce
law was reported to the house to
day by the Interstate commerce com
mittee j
The bill was Introduced by Repre
sentative Townsend of Michigan Jnn
unrdy 10 The original measure was
drafted by Attorney General Wlckor
sham who also is sponsor for soy
eral of the amendments made by the
committee but the measure contains
as amendments liberal excerpts from
the bill presented eary In the ses
sion by Chairman Mann of the com
mittee whose views rfro not In ac
cordance with the administration but
who taken charge of the bill on tho
floor as committee chairman jLhojigh
personally opposed to many of Its
provisions
Mr Mann will ask thp house next
Monday to miTtfc ililHim privileged
falling which he will seek suspension
of the rules to expedite consideration
Tho majority report says
The Hepburn law of 1005 vastly I
Improved the law providing for reg i
ulative control railroad corporations
engaged In interstate or foreign com
merce and much enlarged the scopo
of the authority conferred upon the
Interstate commerce commission Ex
perience gained through execution ot
the law shows that soma important
matters which should lm the subject
of government control are not now
within the scope of authority hereto
fore conferred on the commission
The original act to regulate com
merce was exceedingly Important
tho Hepburn law was of still greater
Importance but the propositions Involved
I
volved In the substitute bill report
ed by your committee arc of oven
greater Importance While they do
not impose undue burdens upon the
railways of the country or unduly in
terfere with tho power of the ran
way managers for the proper opera
lion of the roads yet they do confer
upon tho shipping public the Invest
ing public and the people at largo
benefits of tremendous value
Referring to tho commerce court
covered In the first three sections of
tho bill the report says It Is pro
Posed to centralize tho existing au
thority and jurlsdlctian of circuit
courts In one commerce court but
without enlarging such Jurisdiction or
authority The present Jurisdiction
of the United States courts to set
a lde the interstate commerce com
mission orders is believed by many
to he limited to the determination of
jurisdictional facts and to the ques
tion of confiscation by the taking or
property without due compensation
An inhibition against purchase or
OUBO or capital stork of a directly or
substantial competitive railroad or
water lino is mado in section 12
which also prohibits the same per
ton serving on competing directorates
It permits any corporation design
ing to acquire Interest In another
similar corporation to make a prelim
inary agreement and then to file a
Petition with tho commerce court for
mission to carry out tho agree
ment The committee however lg
considering reporting a committee
amendment to have the petition filed
with the commission Instead of with
the commerce court
Railway securities propositions are
enbodied In the concluding sections
They prohibit railroads from Issuing
any stock or bonds except upon appli
cation to the commission which Is to
tpcclfy the respective amounts of
stcoks bonds etc authorised to he
biucd for tho respective purposes o
which tho proceeds arc to be applied
iiid stating the prIcetheir reason
able nlueat which such stctirltlcs
may bo sold The commission Is au
thorised to Issue certificates In rela

days before the classification or I

The taking of testimony In behalf of
the cabinet officer began last Saturday
afternoon after Attorney Vertreea had
made his opening statement that
much of the testimony against Mr
Ballinger would he shown to bo false
The address sharply criticised James
R Garfield and Gifford Plnchot for
their share In the attack on the sec
retary
Elmer E Todd United States din
trlct attorney at Seattle was the first
witness Mr Todd contradicted cer
tain statements by Special Agont H L
Jones when he was testifying for
Louie It Glavls Ho said Jones stale
ment Unit he had advised against
criminal action In the Alaska case
because Judge Hauford was coast
tutlonnlly opposed to land fraud trials
generally was absolutely false
Mr Vcrtrees asked Mr Todd If ho
had been consulted some time ago ro
gardlng a possible prosecution against
Glavfs for letters missing from his of
flee when he turned It over to hIs tuc
cessor ChrIstensen It Is claimed the
letters afterward were found In a box
belonging to Olavls
Mr Todd said Christensen complain
ed to him In December that the lot
tens were missing About this time
copies of these missing lottcrs began
to appear In a wookly paper with the
announcement that more wore to fol
low
During his crossexamination Attor
noy Brandcis allowed him some or
Jones dally reports one of which nai <
he had conferred with Todd In regard
to criminal prosecution In the Ctyrls
topher group
Didnt Mr Jones have a confer
cncc with you at that Imo asked
the Attorney
< v
Nfo sir lie may have droppeolnh
the office to leave a letter I Bald I
had to look over the papers before
giving an opinion
Cant you conceive a conference
without giving an opinion
I can conceive a good deal of Mr
Jonoe testimony
What object would he have In mak
Ing those reports If he did not have
the conference 7
To show that ho was working when
he was not retorted the witness
Well what was ho doing
Glavlo Wac Running Around
lIe was running around here and
there making dally reports I
He presented this matter to you
didnt ho
Yes but not fully not so fully as
he ought to hnvo done
The crossexamination as to a let
tcr Glavls hud written to the depart
ment at Washington urging criminal
prosecution in certain cases soon lee
the committee into a quarrel which
lasttd nearly an hour and brought out
anew the strength of the partisan feel
ing which has grown up
Attorney Brandcis road a copy w
the Glacis letter which ho said had
come from tho flies of the forestry
service
But that letter was never sent I

commented Mr Todd
How do you know that 7 demanded

Chairman Nelson asked Mr Bran
deis If there was anything to show
that the letter had been sont
There Is no direct evidence re
plied the attorney
But It Is the letter Olavls testified
he never sent persisted tho chair
man It IB the letter which this witness
says Mr Claris testified ho did not
send retorted Mr Brandols
Chairman Nelsons Action
Attorney Vertrees rend the Glavln
testimony In which GlavFe said lie
did not send the letter because he
heard Commissioner Donnctt of the

he could talk It over with him A
Ir Vrotroos concluded Chairman i

You knew that why dill you con
ceal that fact Why didnt you tell
tho committee
Mr Chairman shouted tho attor
nor In a voice which could be heard
far down the corridors I object stren
uously to the statement that I have i
attempted to conceal anything My
courao has been such before thla com
