SENATORS who favor the administra-
tons railroad legislation programme
don't share the confidence said to prevail
at the White House, during the last 10"
DAYS. that the Senate will follow the ex
pected lead Of the House, and pass bill
embodving the Presidents ideas before
March 1. A few days ago there were
signs of yielding on the part of the SEN
ate opposition to the Presidents pro
gramme. but now many fresh indications
appear Of the opposition's purpose to
postpone action on railroad legislation
until the mex; session or even longer.
This change is attributed to Mr.. Cas-
salts visit to the Capitol last week.
Senator Elkins, chairman Of the Senate
committee on interstate commerce, let
il be known that he intended to ask au-
thonty for his COMMITTEES to sit during
tie coming congressional recess, for the
purpose of investigating the question OF
railroad rate legislation. This consti-
tuied notice that he would not under

the matter at this session, whatever the
wishes Of the administration might be-
In his programme Of delay Senator El-
kius apparently secured very inhuen-
na recruit in the person of Senator
Aldrich. The latter is member of the
interstate commerce committee, but had
shown no interest in the pending agita-
ton until Thursday last, when for the
first time this session he attended
meeting Of the committee and took part
in the examination of witnesses. The
lines of questions he asked indicated
clearly not merely that he was opposed
t immediate action on railroad legisa-
ton. but that he felt there was no need
Of further legislation iu that line. 1t is
evident Senator Aldrich reflects the views

tend that existing laws are sufficient to
