AGAIN IN SESSION.
Senate Committee Discussing Railway
Legislation.


Railroad rate legislation has already be-
come q nlattor for the discussion OF the
Senate rather than for the committee on
Interstate commerce. Senator Hale, not d
member of the committee. was in confer
ence today with senators who are taking a
leading part in framing rate legislation
Mr.. Hale has been a close student of the
railroad problem. and It Is believed that he
will be heard from In support of his views.
The committee did not meet today until
2:30 O'Clock. The committee barely got
down to business yesterday afternoon, but
a sufficient start was made to determining
about where every one of the members who
are in the city stood.
But 1t Is believed by many senators that
SO far an concerns q definite understand
ing Of the rate problem. as It relates to the
differences that may exist between the
President and the Senate committee on
interstate commerce, there can be no def
mite conclusion until the President sends
his message to Congress. According TO the
view of many senator's. there is lacking
exact and reliable information as to the
attitude OF the President.
the two experts who have been charged
with the task of summarizing the testimony
before the committee. have not made their
report. but they are likely to do SO within
q day or two.
Senator Aldrfch viii leave for New York
this afternoon but IL Is expected that ne
win return within q few days
: The COMMITTEES, II IL thought, will remain
In session until or 3 O'Clock. After today
Il is likely that tbs committee viii meet
earlier. perhaps II o'clock or o'clock.

will meet and consider some minor ques-
lions which have come up since 1t reached
its fTal conclusion last Saturday.
The last meeting of the board will take
plsce tomorrow. and II Is expected that
that meeting will have a more or less for
NAL aspect and that Gen. Davis Will make
q short speech. thanking the members for
their efforts and bidding the foreign dele
gates farewell.
Although the board has differed IN its
opinions. Il can be stated that at all the
meetings the utmost good fellowship pre-
vailed. No certain choice has as yet been
made Of the member who VIII go to Europe
in January TO meet the European delegates
for n final arrangement OF the report but
II is very likely that Gen. Davis win be Sc
lected.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
MILWAUKEE,, Wis, November 2a-To
resign the senatorship. II such a step is
intended. is not the only object of the
extra session of the legislature called this
morning by Gov. Lafollette.
The governor has taken into account
the recent exposures Of the methods used
by the big insurance corporations of the
east as revealed by the Hughes investi-
cation In New York. and has provided in
the cali for action along the, same lines
by the Wisconsin egisfature should II see
fit to do so. In the light OF the revela-
tons In the east such an Investigation by
Wisconsin will attract wide attention. as
it contempiates not only an investigation
of the insurance companies but also of
the railroads doing business in this state
The calling of the legislature at this
time means that Gov. Iafollette will not
take the oath of Office as United States
senator at the beginning of the session of
