CHANDLER's ANTI-TRUsT RJtI.
HIS Covers Everything, but Is Only a Bluff
Against the Foraker BILL

hSaluSt tne tOraker Bill.
Washington, April 6-Chandler yes
terday introduced in the senate a bill
in the nature of an amendment to Fora
ker's railroad pooling bill. 1t is en-
titled "a Bill Abolishing Competition
in Trade and Production and Authorize
ing Combinations to Enable Merchants
Manufacturers and Producers of Com
modities Subject to Interstate Com
merce to Maintain Prices and Make
Profits, Notwithstanding Business De-
preston The body of the bill covers
every species Of combination, except of
labor, and makes them unlawful. The
Dill then gives the interstate commerce
commission supervision over the bust
ness done by merchants, manufacturers
ana producers under agreements made
In pursuance of the authority given by
tills Dill. and by the interstate COM
merce act.
The body of the Foraker pooling bill
Is adopted by Chandler, but for words
used in the railroad business he sub
stitutes throughout the bill words used
In manufacturing and trade. Chandler
SAID he would not press this bill unless
an effort was made to pass the pooling
bill allowing railroads to combine. In
that case he would urge this as an
amendment to the pooling bill. If con-
Sress abolished railroad competition,
said the senator it might as well aboI-
ish all other competition.
