COMPETITION OF CANADIAN ROADS,
THE UNITED STATES SENATE COMMITTEE TAX
ING TESTIMONY IN BOSTON.


Boston, Mass, July 5-The United States Senate
Committee on Interstate Commerce. which has under
investigation the relation of Canadian railways TO tho
interstate commerce laws and the United States rail-
ways began It's session in this city to-day at the Office
of the state Railroad Commissioners Senator Culloni
presided, and Senator German, Blair, Harris ana
Reagan of the committee present Among
those in attendance were President William Bliss Of
the Boston and Albany Railroad Company Samuel
IIoar, counsel for the company; President
Choate, Of the Old Colony; Assistant General Traffic
Manager Mellen, Of the Union Pacific; President
Goodwin and William Is. Rice of the Boston Executive
Business Association; William Claim. President
Spear, of the Boston Chamber of Commerce. Rail
road Commissioners Croker and Kingsley, General
Manager NILS Of the Boston and Albany road, and
Traffic Manager Whitmore, Of, the FitchbuIg Rail
road. President Bliss, of the Boston and Albany,
held that some means should be found to place the
Canadian roads on the same footing the American
roads under the Interstate Commerce Law.
Senator Blair tried hard TO make President Bliss
say that II Canadian competition was removed the
American roads would surely increase their charges,
but the witness would not do stating thai If the
Canadian roads subjected 10 the same regulations
as the American roads. the latter would be obliged
to take their chances in competition. He was not
disposed think the Canadian roads the public bene-
factors that the people thought them.
President Choate, of the Old Colony road. was next
affected by the Interstate Commerce bill than any
road in the United States AS to through business he
felt that the Canadian roads and the resulting compe
titlon had an important influence upon H. The compe-
tton had resulted IN low rates. He doubted II any law
regulating the competition of Canadian roads could be
enforced though 1t would be good thing TO subject
them to the same laws as tho American roads are
subjected TO-
General Traffic Manager whtmore, of the Fitch
burg road, thought the Canadian roads should GER
tainly be regulated In some way to control what they
do south OF the line. from Portland 10 White River
Junction. The people Of England were very
little benefited by the Canadian lines and could got
along without them. Mr. Nhitmore thought the In
tcrs ate Commerce law detective. not only In regard
10 Canadian roads, but also In regard 10 building
roads in this country that there IS not sufficient re-
sficon in building roads.
C. S. Meen. general traffic manager Of the Union
Pacific said the competition HIS road felt I'm con
nectIon with Canadian lines was In transcontinenta
traffic. The Canadian Pacific had the advantage.
on account of Government aid and OF the fact that
n did not have 10 scale through rates according u
local rates, American roads did.

ON TRIALFOR MURDER.
1t is Thought That Lindsay Will Not be Con-
Yicted.

PHILLIPS, Wis, May 10.-The defence
continued the testimony in the Lindsay
Mahoney murder case this morning. W,
f. Hooker, editor Of the Ashland Daily
News, swore that Mahoney was a man of
wide indu nee with a tough element, and
that when drinking he was brutal.
Hooker said he had carried a revolver for
the benefit of the denkeeper should the
latter attempt to carry oUt certain threats
made against him. john Shute swore
that Mahoney was man of violent tenn.
per, as did many others at last evening s
session. The court is excluding specific
cases of violence on the part of Mahoney.
The defence has a large delegation of
Witnesses on hand who have at some time
or another got a cracked skull or black
eye from the notice desperate, but the
chances are they will not be allowed to
testify except as to the general character
of the man. The testimony of the de.
fence thus far, will undoubtedly have q
large influence with the jury, as most of
it is given by reputable citizens. The
case will probably go to the jury, in the
morning, and the impression seems to be
general that there will be an acquittal or
disagreement.
