At THE WHITE HOUSE
President Interested in In
corporation Question.
BILL TO BE OFFERED
COMPLAINT OF kocr CHARGES AT
NAVY YARD.
Mr.. Roosevelt Invited to Visit Rich
mond, Va.-Some of Today's
Callers.

The Presidents interest in the questions
arising out of railroad rebates is not much
greater than his interest in the propositions
for the incorporation of all corpora tons
doing an interstate business In this country.
Senator Hepburn of Idaho called on the
President today and had a long chat with
him on the subject. Senator Hepburn Is
preparing a bill that will be laid before
Congress just after the holidays, providing
for the Incorporation under federal jurisdc-
ton of all corporations that do BUSH
ness in the various states of the country.
The bill will provide that corpora tons now
in existence must submit applications for
Incorporation within reasonable time. All
those to be organized in the future must do
| likewise. The bill will further provide that
before a charter is issued to corporation
it shall establish the fact that it is entitled
to do a legitimate business. and that it's
stock is not of the watered variety. Briefly,
that the federal government will not permit
any corporation to do business that cannot
establish its right to do so.
A Complaint Against the Navy.
Representative Humphreys of Washing
ton laid before the President today long
telegram he had received from constituents
complaining against the navy officials and
department for what is declared to be ex-
brilliant tonnage charged for vessels that
are to be locked for repairs in the Bremen
ton navy yard in Puget sound. The regula-
tons of the navy permit the use of navy
yard docks for decking and repairing pri-
waite vessels when it will be an accommoda
tiCn to ship owners and the work cannot
be done IN private dock yards. The telegram
to Representative Humphreys stated that
the large steamer Shawmut was to be dock
ed for repairs in Puget sound. The English
navy yard at Esquimault, within a few
miles of the Bremerton yard. offered to per-
nit the vessel to be locked there for a
charge of 8 cents a ton while the Bremen
ten officials demanded 10 cents a ton. 1t
was declared that such charges as this re-
suited in ship work going to British docks,
and explained why SO little of it was done
in American waters.
Mr.. Humphreys went from the White
House to the Navy Department, where 1t
was stated that the dockage rates in navy
docks are made to conform to the rates of
local concerns at any one place. AT Brem-
erton the rates were fixed about as those n
private ship yards at San Francisco as the
government could not be put in the position
of competing with private ship yards for
dockage purposes. WAS stated that
special rate had been sought for the Shaw
NUT on the ground that it was an interna-
tional vessel and ought to be accorded some
privileges, but the navy officials held that
if special rates We're given to a vessel of
this kind 1t would be only a short time
when there would be demands for the use
of government docks at special rates for
home vessels.
