REPORT UNFoUNDED.
No Agreement to Report n Railroad
 Rate Bill.

Washington, May 5.--(Special. )--- There is no foundation for the report to the effect that the Senate Committee on Interstate Commerce practically agreed in favor of reporting railroad rate bill.
 'The truth is." said Senator carmaek tonight, the committee has not dis cussed any sort of bill. The hearing of witnesses has just concluded and inc Committee has hardly had a chance to discuss anything. Whatever action the committee may take, however. 1t will not be unanimous. for there will be A majority bill and minority bill re- ported"
 Frcm the beginning of the investiga- ton of the railroad rate question by Congress the Democrats have taunted their Republican brethren with the claim that President Roosevelt was trying to make political hay in Demo- cratic sunshine. and today Senator Carr mack caused considerable merrimept in the committee room by driving the point of the charge through the highly sensitive Republicanism of Senator For- aker.
 What is the minority going to do about this rate proposition, CarmackF Senator Foraker inquired.
 T don't know yet. We have not heard from tbe President" was the sur prising reply.
 ThezCommittee adjourned for the oal- ance of the day.
