Washington. Dec. 2G.-The Paul

 It .s regarded both in the admins tration and ir Congress as the most impol tan. contribution to this subject that ne been put since the President s message
 It Is further accepted as a complete iexposit.on of the aCminis rat.on's de sires as to new interstate laws Interviews were obtained today from F. P. Bacon. chairman of the executive commit es of the Interstate Commerce Law Convention. and representing the organization of shippers. Senator Elkins. chairman of the Interstate Commerce Committee. and Senator Quarels and Representative Cooper, joint authors of the Quarels-COoper bill now pending in Congress.
 Mir Bacon. in commenting on the outline of plan as proposed be Secre- tary Morton said:
 The idea of the establishment of a special court to review the orCers Of the Interstate Commerce Commission affecting rates. regard as a good one but n my judgment there is no immediate necessity for it. The courts as at present constitut- ed will find no difficulty in handling cases in review of the orders of the commission if the proposed legislation is enacted
 Out of allthis discussion We shall ge' the truth and just and fair legis- lation 10 all concerned" said Senator Elkins. Al interests at least seem 10 be united in the opinion that some th'r9 ehOulG ba done. and dcne soon.
 There seems to be also more O. less harmony on the question of es- tablishing some form of court For myself. I favor cOur,s of interstate commerce in the judicial courts rather than lodging so much primary power in the Interstate Commerce Commis- sion"

Mine Profits Surest.

Statistics in the United States show the following which those who decry mining can digest to advantage.
 The records of mining show that over 50 per cent are successful, while the records of general business, includ- ing manufacturing and merchandise, show that less than , per cent are successful. In stock, wheat, corn and other speculations only per cent are successful.
 It Is undeniably true that a greater number of large fortunes have been built up in mining than in any other industry, and that also in 8 shorter space of time. Reports show the mines of Mexico last year produced over S1O,OOO,OOO.
 The mineral resources of Mexico show a greater ratio of increase than any other industry.
 The annual dividends of the mines are greater than those paid by all the other interests of that country.-Ex.
