CONGRESS AND STRIKES.
The Proposal to Investigate the Read

T
WASHINGTON, Jan. 24-The resolution
introduced by Mr.. Anderson, of Kansas,
directing Congressional inquiry into the
Reading strike was again under discussion
before the House Committee on Commerce
to-day The session was rather stormy
and every member of the committee
freely expressed his views upon the matter.
Some took the ground that the strike could
properly be investigated by the Interstate
Commerce Commission, as it was alleged that
the company had violated section of the
interstate commerce act, forbidding any
conspiracy or agreement to prevent contln-
uOus operation of railroads in the handling
of freight traffic
NO ACTION REACHED.
When the hour of u o'clock was reached
Mr.. Anderson moved that the resolution be
again taken up on Thursday, with the un-
derstandng that a vote should be
had upon it at 1870 o'clock,
but Mr.. Dunham, of Illinois,
who had been an opponent of the measure,
made the point that the hour for adjourn
ment had been reached, so the matter went
over to the next meeting as unfinished
business without any special order or imme
diate prospect of a vote upon it. With
few exceptions the members of the COM
mittee seem to be opposed to the proposed
inquiry. either for the reason that it is not
a proper subject of inquiry by the govern
ment or because they believe the inquiry
should be made by the Interstate Commerce
Commission.

GROUND OF THE FIGHT.

There was strong array of counsel pres
ent on both sides, and large number Of
representatives of Western retail and job
bing interests, many of whom in announc-
ing their appearance declared themselves in
opposition to the prayer of the petitioners.
The substance Of the complaints of the petit
TONERS, the text of which has already been
published, is that the trunk lines named
above, by their freight classification, pro-
mulgated since April, 1878, when the inter
state law went into effect, unjustly discriml-
nate against small shippers of certain varie-
ties of goods, by placing less than car load
quantities in higher class than car loads.
The Gases are likely to occupy the attention
of the Interstate Commission for some time.

A party of American gentlemen,
who had been camping out on an
island in the great Lake Nipissing,
Canada, last summer, were returning
in sail-boat and were yet seven miles
from port when the sun went down,
and with it the sailing breeze.
A discouraging situation, truly.
