The Railroad Inves' CATION.

CHICAGO, December 13.-Interstate
Commerce Commissioners Cooley and
Morrison left for the east last evening.
In an interview Judge Cooley says,
the wllful violations of law and lille
gal and Legitimate plans resorted to
by railroad officials to secure advan-
tages over each other, revealed ty
the investigation made by himself
and Commissioner Morrison, were
much worse than any member of the
commission had supposed. He said
the commission was located too far
away from the base of the operations
of the railroads. 1t should be located
where violations of law could be
promptly brought to it's notice,
and where prompt and thorough in
designations could be made. Investi-
cations into the methods of railroads
In transacting passenger business
and other practices resorted to in Or
der to evade law, had given him and
Commissioner Morrison a better in
sight into the illegal practices re-
sorted to by railroads, than they had
been able to obtain since they as
sumed their office. The revelations
OF crookedness were simply astonish-
ing, and evidence had come into pos
session of the commissioners that |
would warrant criminal prosecution |
against several railroad officials, and |
the worst feature was that every Off |
cial examined, admitted the facts, |
but said he did it because others |
were doing it. Some of them even |
went so far as to justify their illegal |
action on the ground that law was op-
pressive and unjust.
