WASHINGTON, Nov. est is de-
clared by member Of the Industrial
Commission, who claims to have pref
ty thoroughly sounded his fellow men,
bers, that nothing is more probable
than that a recommendation will be
made TO Congress for the ownership
of railroads by the Government.
Several of the commissioners have
pronounced themselves without re-
serve in favor of this system as the
only means by which the people, as a
mass, can be freed from discrimina-
tion in favor OF the larger shipper at
the expense of the lesser.
The commission has prepared a
most elaborate exhibit, showing the
cost OF all the trunk lines, the amount
invested, the watering of stock, the
manipulation of dividends in the in
terests of speculation, the lines which
it is most desirable TO wrest from pri-
vate ownership, the sum which they
should cost the Government, the
amount of revenue that would accrue,
with the advantages that would re-
suit to the general shipper.
1t will be shown, it is said. that the
investment would not only be vast
ly profitable one to the Government,
put of Unreasonable benefcence to
the masses in the cheapening of fares
md freights. One of the arguments
will be that il the Government engage
in the postal business, and improve
ment OF rivers and harbors at an out
lay of many millions of dollars an
nually there is no reason why the
same power should not interfere in
the interests of those who use the
railroads instead of the waterways.
The purchase, 1T is alleged, Of the
locks and dams Of the Monongahela
Navigation Company will be cited, by
way of illustration, that the Govern
ment is already an investor in means
If transportation for the benefit OF
che people and that there is no valid
eason why it should not go farther
md own highway Of another kind,
which the people may run their
own craft in the form of cars or be
furnished trains by the people and
tor the people.
OF course, also, there will be nc
end of statistics in regard to the own
ership of railroads in foreign coun-
tries. 1t may easily be imagined,
however, how such suggestion will
be received by a Congress which is
composed by large majority OF
lawyers who are interested in the
preservation of the present system.
Testimony will be adduced, neverthe-
less, from men of this kind, and even
from officials of railroads, in favor OF
the proprietorship Of trunk lines by
the people, that is, the Government.

TURNS DOWN REPORT,
Labor Congress Refuses to En-
dorse Committees Findings
on Arsenal Strike.
SERIOUS CHARGES ARE MADE


Those Entrusted WIKI Representing La
boring People in the Settlement Accused
OF InsincerIty aud DisioyaIty-Stormy
and Sensational Meeting of the ITCHY
Body-violation of Eight Hour Law.
At the conclusion of an executive
session of the Tri-City Labor congress,
from which all but accredited dele
gates were barred, yesterday after
noon, an official statement was made
to the newspaper reporters by Secre-
tary George f. Morgan as follows:
The special committee appointed
to investigate matters connected with
the settlement of the Rock Island ar
senal machinists' strike. reported al
leging insincerity on the part of those
in charge, but the congress decided by
a two-thirds vote not TO adopt the re-
port"
An effort was made to have the re-
pors read and discussed in public, but
The majority decreed otherwise. 1t
was a stormy and sensational meeting.
The reading of the report caused
CONSERVATION among the delegates.
Men entrusted with arbitrating the
recent difficulties at Rock Island ar
senal in behalf of the laboring people
were openly charged with betraying
their trust. 1t was claimed they al
lowed themselves to be unduly infiu-
enced, to the detriment of those whose
cause was in their hands. Delegates
friendly to those censured in the re-
port spoke in their behalf. There
were denials and appeals, and finally
the motion was put and defeated.
elf that report had received the en-
dorsement of the congress it would
have resulted in the disruption of that
body said delegate after the meet
ing.
Three unions refused to vote
on the report. IL is said seven
fro the congress because it failed
10 endorse the report.
Other Matters.
Delegates were admitted from the
Blac ksmiths' union of Moline; Paint
ers' and Decorators union, No. 1S1,
of Rock Island; Broom Makers union
of Davenport, and Cigar Makers I'M
ion, No. POI.
1t was voted to support the brewers
III their effort to have the breweries
use the union label on their products so
long as their action had the sanction
of their international officers.
A resolution was adopted condemn
ing the violation of the S-hour law on
the reservoir construction, where, it is
claimed, men are worked zine hours a
day. The resolution asks the city to
adhere to the S-hour ordinance. if
it is necessary to run two shifts of
men.
Thanks were exte ded the firm of
Young & McCombS for having in two
instances shown its good will toward
organized labor.

ARE AFTER THE TRAMPS
Railroad Men Talking of Aiming Them
selves for Protection.


1t is said if there is not n cessation
of hostilities on the part of tramps it is
very probable that some of them are
going to get their just deserts. Train
men have decided to arm themselves
and return the onslaught, if an attack
is made on them. Within the past few
days n Der of highly respected and
peaceful railroad men have been VIC
iously assaulted by worthless vaga-
bonds who go about the country armed
with six shooters, ready to send a
bullet into the heart of a railroad man
who attempts to put them off the
train. The action on the part of the
railroad men in the matter of arming
themselves will meet with the APP
proval of the public, and if any man
shows fight the man who resents the
attack with pistol and shoots his
assailant. if necessary, will be consid-
cred a benefactor of mankind. Train
men declare that hereafter the man
who values his life will pay his fare

Carnival Notes.
There was sound of revelry by
night.
It is estimated there were 1000

1t was something like the old story

than he had during the entire week in

not to preserve the decorations until
