The action Of Senator Nelson in withdrawing

possible that the name Jefferson Will be sub

BY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE.I
Washington. Dec 10.-A special appropriation
OF 100000 is to be given to Attorney General
Knox to enable him more effectually to enforce
the existing antitrust laws. 1t is probable
that this will be the only antitrust legislation
enacted at the present session of Congress. al
though it is possible that some Of the many bills
introduced in the Senate and House may be re-
ported from committee, and ii is even possible
that some one of them may pass the House of
Representatives. In his message to Congress
President Roosevelt said:
The Congress rs not heretofore made any
appropriation for TIE better enforcement OF the
antitrust law as II now stands Very much
has been done by the Department of Justice in
securing the enforc ement of this law, but much
a special appropriation for this purpose to be
expended under the direction of the Attorney
General
AS result of this suggestion in the message
several measures have been introduced in Con-
gress proposing TO make appropriations to en-
able the Attorney General to enforce the present
law more effectively. Among these is a bill in
troduced by Representative Hepburn. OF Iowa,
proposing to appropriate 100000 for this pur-
pose. This bill is now pending before the Judi
eiary Committee of the House. 1t is the present
intention Of the members of the Judiciary Com
mittee to take up the Hepburn bill on Friday of
this week and report IL favorably to the House.
1t Will then be pressed for early consideration.
1t is hoped that it can be passed before the
Christmas holidays Several of the members Of
the House committee, including some of those
who believe that there should be more radical
legislation for dealing with the trusts of
the opinion that nothing should be done at the
present session after having passed this appro-
priation bill. They take the ground that if the
administration believes ii is possible to deal
with the trusts under the present law every op-
portunfty should be given to the Attorney Cen
eral to show what he can do. If he shows that
with plenty Of money at his command he can
curb the trusts under the present law there may
be no necessity for further legislation, and aside
from this there is a general disposition to. go
slow on antitrust legislation and study the
question carefully before undertaking to enact
any new law.
