BACON IS CALLED
BY COMMISSION
Corporation Presidents TO Tes-
tify About Rates
RAMSEY Is ON THE STAND
Doubts ACCESSIBILITY of Giving Rate
Making Power over Traffic of
225,ooo Miles of Railroad
In United States.
RAMSEY is ON THE STAND

Washington. May 10.-Chairman Elkins
of the Senate interstate commerce COM
mittee today summoned by telegraph to
appear and testify on the rate question
the presidents of the Tennessee Coal and
Iron company, the Colorado Fuel and
Iron company. the United States Steel cor
poration the Fairmont Coal company and
the Pittsburg Coal company.
The principal witness at today's hear
ing was President Joseph Ramsey, Jr.,
of the Wabash railroad, who opposed leg
islation empowering the interstate COM
merce commission to fix rates. He said
that to give to a committee the rate
making power over traffic of 225, 600 miles
of railroad, the earnings of which amount
to $2,0O0000,000 per year. endangering vest
ed interests amounting to over $13,000,-
100000, and the successful operation of
properties employing directly over 1,50O 600
citizens, and supporting through pay
rolls dividends, fixed charges and railroad
supplies some 100000 people, and serv-
ing well a country of at least eighty mil
lion people, is admitted to be an expert
ment dangerous alike to the public, to
the idiffOduS, anu nlOTe especially To INC
future development of the industrial and
commercial prosperity of the country. at
home and abroad. Any single body of
men. he commended cannot make rates
for the entire country.
Mr.. Ramsey said the Wabash was a
stakeholder in the American Refrigerator
Transit company, but that no preference
was given ON the Gould lines to this
company.
The rates on the prouucts were equal.
Steamships both coastwse land river
lines, he believed. should be subject to
interstate commerce laws.
The safety appliance law, in his opin-
ion, tended to make employees careless.
Mr.. Ramsey doubted whether any of the
great money interests in New York exer-
cised control of rates. The interest of
railroads, he suggested was not in the
trusts. but in the smaller concerns. These
combinations sometimes forced low rate
of transportation by threat of trans
ferring their business.
