STRIKE INVESTIGATION,
Will the Presidents Com mmissfOn In
terfcre With Congregational Inquiry |:

Will the Presidents Com sion In.
terfcre With Congressional Inquiry |:
There is some difference of opinion among
congressman as to whether the commission
to be appointed by the President to in
vestgate the causes of the Chicago strike
Will interfere with the Investigation pro-
posed by the committee on interstate COM
merce.
Members of the committee hold that there
will be no Interference, since the work Of
the congressional committee will be for the
purpose of recommending legislation TO pre-
vent strikes like this one. 1t was developed
during the discussion in committee over the
advisability of congressional investigation
that more than one member of the body will
go into the work with views which may
bring about decided results.
The members referred to think that the
laws governing contracts with employees Of
companies engaged in interstate commerce
should provide that corporations should not
discharge men or cut down their wages
without due notice, and that on the other
hand, men should not be allowed TO stop
work without notice to their employers.
They would not interfere with the rights of
employees to strike in a body or otherwise,
but would prevent the sudden strandng of
commerce, as well as sympathetic strikes
entered upon without notice. There is n be-
lief that some features of the maritime laws
regulating contracts might be advantage
ously applied to Interstate commerce.

The Commissioners Report Against
the Bill Regulating Them.
IHE MATTER OF STREET CAR FARES
A Transfer From City to Subur.
ban Lines.
AT TWO CENTS A HEAL

Senate bill 1716 regulating fares and
transfers in the District Of Columbia. was
the subject Of a report by the Commission
ers to Congress today. They say:
'It is believed that the bill. If enacted into
law. would. for the general public interest.
be a step backward.
"Six tickets are now sold, under law. by
all street car and herdic companies for 70
cents and are interchangeable between the
different lines. Such price and arrangement
Is Just and reasonable to the companies
and convenient to the public.
''In addition, transfers are now given with
cut extra charge between the Metropolitan
and Columbia companies. the lexington and
Soldiers Home Company and Belt line and
the lexington and Soldiers Home Company
and Georgetown cable branch at 18th street.
1t is believed that conditions which require
sIch transfers will obtain In other cases and
that the natural extension of present car
lines will give further accommodation to
the general public.
''The Commissioners recognize that a
scent fare. with a right OF transfer.
as proposed in the bill, would be highly de-
sIrable to people living In the suburbs, but
this number Of people Is less than the num-
Der of persons using the city line alone, and
IL the general scent fare were required It
would be at the expense of the majority.
1.-The Commissioners believe, however, that
1t is reasonable. just and proper that the
city lines being dividend payers. and having
failed to extend their lines beyond the
boundary of Georgetown, but having re-
served to themselves the more profitable
pert Of the street car traffic of the District,
and opposing the use Of their tracks laid in
public space under a franchise given with
cut compensation, should be required to in
terchange transfers with intersecting sub
urban lines for an additional fare of not ex-
ceeding two cents. until the suburban lines
are permitted to run their cars into the mid
ole of the city.
This requirement would promote the ex-
tension of suburban lines into the city over
present tracks and encourage the selection
ty street car companies of common methods
of car propulsion or of methods applicable
to the same tracks. 1t Is further judged
that on the average, the suburban line
would carry the passenger transferring
twice the distance of his travel on the city
line, and therefore that in the division of
the additional fare between the connecting
lines the suburban company should be enti-
tied to two-thirds thereof. Should trial
show that transfer fare Of cents IS too
large. or that the stated division of the
fare is not reasonable and just, the proper
change could be made by subsequent legis-
lation"

UNCERTAINTY CONTINUES.
Interior Department Clerks Who Ar,
Uneasy.


The uncertainty among the employees of
the Department of the Interior continues.
Eighteen or nineteen removals of pension
clerks were promulgated on Saturday, and
the Secretary Of the Interior has under ad-
visement recommendations for the reduction
and promotion of about 100 members Of the
pension office force. The report of the gen.
eral land office relative to the efficiency of
its employees has not as yet been acted on
by the Secretary and probably will not be
till Chief Clerk Swartz returns, as 1t Is con-
sidered but right that he be allowed to see
the recommendations as to the clerks in his
office. The report Of the patent office has
not been received. In the Secretary's office
the number Of changes will be very small
1t is not thought that any removals will
occur in that precinct 1t is likely that
there will be three, or maybe four, promo
tfons and one or two reductions. The re-
ports Of the bureau Of education and the
Indian bureau are in Action will be taken
by Secretary Smith within a few days, and
the changes. which will affect clerks in all
the classes of from $500 to 81, ,OOO will go
into effect on August l.
There is a good deal of talk around the
corridors that preferences are to be shown
democrats and determinations made against
republicans. So far as The Star man has
been able to learn, and he has been given
with the facts these rumors are without
any basis in fact. or the two thousand
people employed in the pension office there
are but 3oO democrats, notwithstanding the
length of time which the democratic COM
missioner, Judge William Lochrcn, has been
In charge. 1t is not thought that Secretary
Smith would countenance anything In the
nature of an injustice toward a man be-
cause of his political opinion.
The changes about to be ma de are a result
of the new method of registering the eifi-
cheney of clerks The chief Of each division
keeps a daily record of the work done by
each one of his force, and he makes q
quarterly report, with recommendations bas-
ed on the daily reports, to the commissioner
or the bureau. If the record shows the
clerk to be excellent" promotion is in or
der; II good he is to retain his present
station; If fair" reduction will probably
follow and If the clerk Is so unfortunate as
to be marked poor" vacancy is likely
to occur. The quarterly reports of division
chiefs are to be bound and preserved as
records of the bureau.

In Regard to the Action of the
Tariff ConfeNes.
CONSERVATIVES CLOSELY WATCHING
The Louisiana and TexasDeIegations
to Have a Caucus.
SUGAR is THE CAUSE

The signs point to a very stormy Tina
ahead OF the conference committee on the
tarfn when they come to make their re-
port. They are very tightly tied up over
those principal items I'm dispute but the
trouble they are having to agree among
themselves is not a circumstance TO what
is anticipated between members of the
conference and the conservatives" OF
tne senate when the report finally
comes from the conference. The men
who dictated terms under which the
bil was permitted to pass the Senate are
keeping very close watch on the con-
ference that the Senate conferees may
not forget their obligations to the Com
serVauves- number of spirited talks
have already occurred between members
OF the conference and some OF these men,
and the apprehension felt by the Senate
conferees Of criticism from this source
Is evidenced In the fact that IL IS being
agreement. and that the Sena conferees
nave not bound themselves to anything
yet
Secret Caucus.
Soon after the tariff conference adjourned
at noon today three important features
were developed. The Louisiana and Texas
delegations IN Congress went into secret
caucus in the House committee room on
appropriations for the purpose OF adopt-
Ing plan to be presented to the conferees
Tor the immediate abrogation OF the treaty
with Hawaii
Second. IL was made evident that a tariff
report was not far OF, members Of the
conference stated that the republican mem~
bers would be called in tomorrow Finally
strong feeling was developed among the
republican conferees of the House TO de-
cline to enter the conference at this late
day on the ground that IL was an empty
formality.
Evasfve
When members OF the democratic confer
ence emerged from the room they could ne
prevailed upon only TO give the most genera
answers to the questions of Representatives
OF the press. and they were almost as eva
sive In their conversation with fellow-Sena-
tors and members. One OF them stated that
Ii was impossible to say when the republi-
can conferees would be called in or when n
report would be made to the Senate 1T
have" he said, 'been expecting dailv-I
may say hourly-that we would be able TO

fot say definitely when We shall reach it,"
Sugar Causes the Delay.
The same member admitted that the dis
agreement on sugar was the principal thing
which was causing the delay.
Messrs. Reed, Burrows and PAYNE. the
House republican conferees, lunched to-
gether at noon and talked over the situa-
ton.
Mr.. Reed said a declination to enter the
conference would be quite proper under the
circumstances, but that IL would be dona

be open TO misconstructions
