Proposed Government.
NOT CONTRARY TO LAW.
Decision on Complaint of baltimore
Commuters.

The interstate commerce commission, in
an opinion by Chairman Knapp, has rem
dered its decision in the case of Sprigg and
others. representing Communication ticket
holders between Baltimore and Washington
against the Baltimore and Ohio and Balri-
more and Potomac Railroad Companies.
The complaint arose in consequence Of the
withdrawal from sale by the railroad COM
panies of 1So-tIip Communication tickets BE-
tween Baltimore and Washington. which
resulted in compelling the commute-s TO
purchase the higher monthly or c0-tIp
tickets. The commits sion decided tnat the
action of the defc ndants in withdrawing the
1S0-trip quarterly ucket between Bal
t.more and Washington was wl,hln the
limits of their discretion and did Eot con-
stitu;e a violation Of the act to req ate
commerce.
The commission decides as follows:
THE action of the defendants N with
drawing the 1so-trip quarterly ticket be-
tween Baltimore ard Washington Was
within the limits Of their discretion and DID
not constitute a violation of the act to reg
ulate commerce.
Under section % of the act. carriers are
allowed to iss ue mileage eXcu-s IN and
communication tickets. but ordinarily they
cannot be compelled to d. so. To the ex-
tent necessary for their use, tickets nf the
description named exempt from the
general rules of the statute Comp lance
with those rules may be directed hy the
commission, but requiring exceptions there
to is not within its province; and this APP
plies as well to the restoration OF such
tickets where they have been Withdrawn
as TO the refusal to furnish them where
their Introduction has been requested.
THE provision in section -. above re-
ferred to- authorizes special rates to COM
muters which are less per mile than he
charges &c other passengers for longer dis
tances Such a relation of rates must
list at certain points under any system OF
Communication. The NEST remote paint with
in a communication district secures lower
rates per mile than The next and more dis
tant point without that district: but the dis
elimination thus created is not unjust nor
are places outside the Communication terri
tory thereby subjected to undue prejudice.
THE commission has no authority to ad-
minister the antitrust law or even to de-
terrnine whether IL has been VIC ated. II
an investigation discioses a violation of that
law the power of the commission is not
enlarged nor its duty changed in res pect
of the rate involved in the inquiry. No re-
lief could be afforded the compiainants In
this proceeding upon the theory that the
quarterly ticket was withdrawn under an
agreement between the carriers in violation
of the antitrust law. even IL the facts were
found in support of that contention
Commissioner Clements flied a dis enting
opinion.

ADVISORY COUNCIL MEETS.
Preparations for the Holding of Pure
Food Congress.

A meeting of the general advisory coun-
Gil of the national pure food and drug con-
| gress and delegates to the same from the
District of Columbia was held last evening
in parlor 20 at the National Hotel. The at
tendance was very large. The chairman.
Mr.. Frank Hume, being absent. Mr.. NJ. w.
Trmble. vice chairman presided. Mr.. A. ].
Wedderburn was secretary.
The chair announced that the names of
nearly 100 delegates had been communicate
ed to and registered by the secretary, and
as that made it compulsory to get a larger
hall for the meetings of the congress than
the one accepted from o. G. Staples, large
room fronting c street and above police
headquarters had been secured. 1t was also
necessary, he said, to raise 500 beyond
what had already been contributed in or
der to provide for the expenses of the con-
gress. The full amount was subscribed,
and nearly all paid in in very few mo-
meuts.
Agriculture, who was asked to give a short
talk the objects of the congress, ex-
planned that there were already in many
states laws which prohibited the adultera-
ton of food and drugs, but that from in
herent defects in the laws the object sought
to be attained was defeated. The interest
OF the national House of Representatives
in the work of the pure food congress was
shown, he said, by the fact that the in
terState and foreign commerce committee
was authorized to sit during the recess of
N44S eiiiS 1iie1t last SpIIHB inc
committee had taken a vast amount of tes-
timony showing the necessity of a ma
tional pure food law.
There was, he declared, not nearly so
much adulteration of food as has been sup
posed About % per cent of the products
he thought, are pure. There was scarcely
any country in the world where food prod
ucts are not to some extent adulterated
One of the most important objects sought
to be obtained by the enactment of the
Brosius bill: now in committee, was, he
said, TO establish such guarantees as would
open our products to the markets of the
world, or at least where the other nations
of the earth have right to sell.
THE time is ripe" he said, for the pass
age of pure food law. The newspapers of
the land are in favor of it, and the uni
versal sentiment of all the great business
interests Of the country is in its favor
Brief addresses were also made by Dr.
Freer and Messrs. Trimble Wedderburn
and others.
