NATIONAL BUSINESS LEAGUE.
1t Was Formed In Chicago and Il
Branch Will BE Established Here.

1t Was Formed In Chicago and u
Branch Will be Established Here.
The National Business League was
formed In Chicago last week, and branch
will be formed in this city. The plan of
the organization contemplates in scope a
vast league whose influence would be pow
erful if success attends the movement. 1t
is intended to organize branches in all the
larger commercial and Industrial centers
to cooperate with the main body of the
league, whose headquarters, at present, are
in Chicago. Circulars to effect the forma-
ton of these coordinate bodies already
have been issued. The object of the
league is to learn what federal legislation
will best aid the business interests Of the
country at large. and then to use the in
fuence of the league to bring to the at
tention of Congress measures in line with
business prosperity, and urge their pas
sage in the interest OF commerce and in
dustry. The league is to he thoroughly
non-partisan and non-political. The Off
GERS, citizens of Chicago are as follows:
President, Ferd w. Peck; vice president
Erskine NJ. Phelps; treasurer Elbridge c.
Keith: secretary, Clifford A. Gilbert; at
tcrney. John w. Ella.
Ferdinand w. Peck. the president, and
Jchn w. Ella, the general attorney Of the
National Business League, have ctme
here to start the work of the league at
Washington. The subject of the tariff bill
HCW DSiHS prepared by the House ways
ana means committee was first taken up
Messrs. Peck and Ella had extended inter-
views with several members of the COM
mittee, including Chairman Dingley, Mr.
A. j. Hopkins and Gen. Grosvenor. with
reference to the work now being done by
the committee. In this manner they in
formed themselves of the stage the sched-
ules are now in. Chairman Dingley as
well as other members of the committee
received them most cordially, and express
ed themselves as much plea sed with the or
ganiZation.
They also discussed with those with
whom they conferred the advisabilty of
having bill for the appointment of tar
III commission passed, providing that ex-
pert commissioners be appointed to whom
all bills contemplating changes in tariff
schedules hereafter should be referred for
investigation and report to Congress be-
fore action was taken. The object of this
is stated TO be to prevent, after the pas
sage of the tariff bill now in prepara ton
the damage to business which always fol-
lows from general revision OF the tariff
They also discussed with Sena tors Frye
CGllon and other members of Congress
and of the Treasury Department the bill
to establish a new department of the gov
ernment, to be called the department of
commerce and industry" and the appoint
ment of new cabinet officer to represent
this department.

MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP.
Interesting InvestiEa ton Being Com
Quoted by the Labor Bureau.

The proposed federal and state investiga-
ton into the municipal ownership of big
enterprises is now unGer way in several of
the states. It's chief aim Is to ascertain
the extent TO which municipal ownership
has been carried in this country, and TO
this end information is to be collected from
all gas electric light or water works under
such control. This amounts to the taking
of a census of all of this class of municipal
enterprises.
The secondary object is 10 collate data
bringing the cost to the consumer of water
gas or electric light under mur cipal man
aEement into comparison with the cost of
a ike product under private control. An
attempt also will be made to find the cost
o: the different products under the two
methods OF management No diftic is
anticipated in any of the features of the
investigation, municipal works have
readily given information, and the price
paid by the consumers is naturally easily
ottainable from the latter. The inquiry
VIII be carried on by the different state
bureaus of labor and the federal depart
nent of IL Dor. There are thirty-two state
ofnces Some, however, are unable to Join
IN the inquiry, and from such states the
department will collect the facts. The re-
suits will De brought together complied
ana analyZed by the department of labor
while each state participating in the can
vass will publish the data belonging to II
III tHio way thorough cooperation has been
secured, and the work will be ACCOMPLISHED
with the least possible delay. The prin-
cipies involved do not constitute any fea-
ture OF the investigation, and therefore
Whelher the municipal ownership of such
Institutions is or is not desirable has No
place in the investigation, which is based
on the desire of all parties on both sides to
learn the extent to which the idea has been
carried. me department of labor here, un-
Ger the supervision of Commissioner of
Labor Wright, has been shipping the
blanks to the different state offices. and
lhe work already has been started In two
or three eastern states. The results will ha
aVallabie for tabulation in the different
states In the next two or three months
Inc department will publish a summary Of
all the facts and embody them in a specjaI
report to Congress. The idea of the can
vass had its inception in a resolution adont- :
ed al the twelfth annual convention of tha
Natle nal Association of Officials of Bu-
reaux of Labor Statistics in the I-niIoa
States last June.
