THE ANTI.SCALPINC BILL.
Hearings Closed sid Vote il
Booked for Next Week.
AMENDMENTS PROPOSED.
Opponents Of the Meaanrc Expect
TO he Able 10 Defeat IL.
Eikins Changes.

washington. January 27.--The senate
committee on interstate commerce held It's
iirst executive meeting today for the con-
sideration OF the anti-scalping bill. The
hearings we're brought to a close and tho
committee decided to exert every effort IN
reach vote at the meeting TO be held
week from today. The opponents OF tho
fill did not evince a disposition to post
pone the vote longer than necessary TO pre-
sent their views and some OF them ex
pressed the opinion that the vote would NOT
under any circumstances be deferred
longer than two weeks.
There was also a general agreement TO
accept the house bill as the basis for fu
ture consideration. This bill was oriri-
nally u copy of the senate bill, but it was
amended In committee.
Al today's meeting several amendments
additional to those made by the house COM
mlttee were suggested. Among those was
one compelling the railroad companies 10
redeem unused portions of tickets at a rate
proportionate to the cost of the entire
ticket; another mitigating the penalty I'M
posed Tor the violation OF The law; another

ator Cullom last week for the Improvement
OF the status of the interstate commerce
commission. 1t was stated that other
amendments still would be offered and the
animation was given out that one of these
might provide that the passes should be
made good to the bearers. The discussion
was along the lines indicated by these
suggestions, but there was not a sufficient
ly general expression Of opinion to form a
definite idea of what that vote will be-
Opponents OF the bill count on getting
five votes for their proposition to console
date the anti-scalping with the commits
sion bill, and they are even hopeful of Sc
curing sixth vote. which would carry 1t.
In case the motion should prevail the
effect would be equivalent to a postpone
ment, as some time would be necessary to
commit the bill.
During the meeting today Senator Elkins.
who had been considered an nvowed ad-
vocate of the anti-scalping bill. expressed
imself as somewhat doubtful as to its ex-
pedency. He said that while many of the
railways were evidently favorable in a
degree to the bill. there were only two--the
New York Central and the Pennsylvania
which were pressing 1t with apparent zeal
He said in view of this fact he had reached
the conclusion that the majority of the lines
were at best Indifferent. while he thought
that some OF them were actually opposed to
