SUBSTITUTE RATE
BILL REPORTED
Madison, MAY /

Madison, May Il
The railway commission bill will be
special order in the senate tomOr
row morning Upon the motion of
Chairman Hatten of the railroad com,
mittee the senate last night adopted
this program without a dissenting
vOt. The railroad committee brought
!, ~ TIE senate a substitute for the
| bill reported over week ago, but
this does not mean that there is any
new bin or any radical changes. The
substitute is the same bill as first
agreed upon by the committee, except
for the verbal changes which have
ported in order that the various
verbal amendments would not have
to be adopted one at time on the
floor Of the senate.
The bill and all the various amend
mCnts which have been offered by
Senators Stevens, RummeI, McGiIliv
ray and others. were referred to the
committee at the morning session. The
committee met and unanimously de-
cided to report the substitute which
came in last night. No feature Of
the McGillyray, Rummel or Stevens
amendments were incorporated into
the substitute. These can be brought
mp on the floor of the senate, but they
will not have the support of the com
muee, and for that reason, it is not
thought that any of them will be
adopted.
