SEN, ELK|NS
ON RATE
REGULATION

Washington Dec s.-senator Elkins,
chairman Of the committee on interstate

lation:
LAS | underst tand It, the president does
not desire to vest in the commission ar
bitrsry and uncontrolled power TO fix rates
He has repeatedly stated that the action
OF the commission I'm fixing a rate should
be subject 10 review 10y the courts and
that the railroad companies should be fur
nished legal -p-n-1cllnn- against -apy-ln=
justice. That being the case. law giving
TO the commission power 10 fix rates
should not be drawn in such manner as to
give the commission purely legislative
discretion I'm fixing rates.
If those who advocate vesting In the
Interstate commerce commission the power
TO fix rates I'm good faith. seeking TO carry
out the policy OF the president, they should
be willing to accept a statute giving TO
the commission power to fix rates sub
stantially in the following terms:
( Whenever any rate, fare or charge

] service shall be unreasonable or uniustly
discrimnatoy. or otherwise in violation

ANY party affected by such order shall
! be entitled TO institute \ proceeding 10

of the United states for any district
through which the line NJ the carrier may
run: and II tho court In suchs procee eedins
shall find that the rate fixed by such Gar

necessary i'm order 10 remove the uu-
rea sonableness. unjust discrimination or

and correct such order accordingly.
Senator Ekns said he would favor such
a measure as he had outlined and he
lieved A. meant solution of the problem
that had been agitating the country for a
long time.
This is tho FIRST Indication that has

AT
A CHURCH
ELECTION

New Rochelle. ~. y, Dec. s.-The mem
bers Of ST. Johns Episcopal church OF
Upper New Rochelle held their annual
election OF wardens and vestrymen this
morning.
Tho session opened with prayer and
closed with a fight, I'm which r h. White
head. s. prominent real estate broker and
secretary OF the election. was struck In
the eye by an irate parishioner.
The trouble grew out OF an effort which
is being made by a faction OF the parish
toner's 10 oust the rector, the Rev. Han
son Bean
Charges were RECENTLY made against him
before the archdeaconry OF Westchester'
but when ne was brought TO trial his
accusers failed 10 prove them. The only
thing that they succeeded In proving was
that he had partaken rather freely or
hard cider at a dinner given mi the neigh
borhood
The dissatisfied parishlonens then tried
20 close up the church and. failing In this,
held up tho rector salary.
This morning they turned out IN full
force. expecting 10 outvote him and elect
a vestry that would ask Bishop Potter 60

EX-Alderman Robert c. Archer sprang
between the two men and pulled them

! chairs were knocked over.
Mr. Whitehead said last night that
while he considered tho assault most un-
warranted he would not apply for war
rant. as he did not want 70 bring any
| further notoriety on the church. His
eye was badly swollen.

A PERFECT FOOD.

That SCOTS Emulsion
should act SO quickly and
satisfactorily in all cases
of lost flesh and continued
wasting is not surprising
when its food value is un-
derstood. With pure Nor
wegian cod liver oil, hypo-
phosphites of lime and
soda and glycerine, there
is combined in SCOTS
Emulsion the best ele-
ments of nouriShment and
strength building known
to medical science. Any
physician will tell you this.
The use of these ingredi.
ents in the proper proper
tions; the employment of
only the purest grade of
each, and to combine them
perfectly is the secret OF
the success of SCOTS
Emulsion. You will not
find a more certain way to
stop waste, build flesh and
strength and supply nour-
ishment than through
SCOTS Emulsion.
