Senator Gives Setback 10 Railroad Rate
LEGISLATION Would 20 Slow

washington, Jan. Ex-senator Elkins
chairman OF the committee on Interstate
and foreign commerce. gave n setback to
the agitation for railway rate legislation
when he declared that he was opposed to
decisive action on the question at the
present congress session and not in favor
OF an extra session 10 consider 81.
His idea is that a joint congressional
committee should consider the matter
during the congress recess and report 10
the senate and the house In the matter.
In discussing this feature OF the case
Senator Elkins said: "a careful examina-
tion into the question OF rate legislation
will elicit the fact that perhaps more peo-
rle, or at least as many. are directly con-
ctrned than in any other class OF legisla-
ticn which might possibly be projected.
"In fact / cannot imagine any other
proposition which could come before con-
gress as affecting the interests OF more
persons than this case.
'"The amount OF money involved, as rep
Iesenting business interests and property
rights is beyond measure and cannot rea-
sonably be calculated ofrhand l am In IA
vor of going slow I'm this situation"

Despite the fact that orders had been
given that only those directly connected
with the trial, including witnesses and
friends Of the attorneys should be per-
mitted TO enter the court room today the
crowd outside the building this morning
was greater than any that has yet come
here during the trial.
A squad Of policemen was busily en-
gagged In keeping the people back from the
doors at each one OF which deputy sheriff
was stationed. Hundreds Of men and
women stood stivering in the street on
during the frosty atmosphere and biting
wind patiently in the expectation OF see
ing Tucker when he was brought over
from the Jail and in the vain hope that
the officials would relent and admit the
public TO the court room

lie declared that the medical examiner.
who was called after the murder. was lax
in his methods. his first theory of suicide
not being changed to one OF murder until
"a hours after the body OF Miss Page was
discovered
There has not been one solitary bit
OF evidence introduced" said Mr.. Vahey,
which shows conclusively that this de-
fendant had a reason for killing Mabel

by the prosecution was that OF robbery
and declared that Amy Roberts, whose
testimony was given TO support this
theory. had contradcted herself and had
been contradicted by other witnesses. He
said he would leave the question of hand

Mr.. Vahey pointed out that none OF the
medical experts who had testified had said
