Judge Cooley of the Interstate Com
meroe Commission, in an interview In
Chicago, said that the wilful violations Of
the law and the illegal illegitimste means
resorted to by the railroad officials To-
secure advantages over each other, re-!
vealed by the Investigation by himself
and Commissioner Morrison, were much
worse than any member Of the oommisI
sion had supposed. he said the revela3
tions of crookedness were simply as.
founding, and evidence had come into
the possession Of the commissioners that
would warrant criminal prosecutions
against several railroad officials. The
commission, he said, will act promptly
hereafter, in every case of violation Of
the law that comes to its notice, and
guilty parties will be punished to the full
extent OF the law.
