COMPROMISE
REPORT IS
ADOPTED

Washington, Jan. 17-At this forenoon's
the committee on Interstate commerce
law presented its report which Chairman
Coats. OF Philadelphia, declared to be
compromise. 1t was stated that some OF
the members of the committee were op-
posed to any government interference
with the railroads in the matter OF rate
making. while others favored more dras-
tic legislation than that proposed by the
resolution
others the chairman said, believed in
giving TO the interstate commerce COM
mission original rate-making power sub
ject TO review by the courts, instead OF
giving the courts original jurisdiction of
the reasonableness Of the rate as pro-
posed In the resolution
After discussion a compromise report
was adopted.
The resolution. after declaring against
advocating reflective governmental super
vision or all Interstate transportation
agencies recommends that whenever a
United States court of competent juris-
diction. upon complaint OF the interstate
commerce commission. (Which complaint
be given precedence), shall have deter
mined that an existing rate is excessive
the commission or some other competent
body be given power TO compel the sub
stitution OF reasonable time and to re-
main In force for such q period not longer
than one year, as may be determined the
rate TO be fixed to be subject TO revision
In the proper federal court upon proof
that such rate Is less than reasonable
compensation"
Chairman Bddle of Philadelphia. made
majority report from the committee on
federal control OF Interstate insurance
favoring such action by congress as will
bring interstate Insurance under national
supervision.
Mr.. Hamlin OF Boston presented a MI
nority report. opposing the majority re-
port. principally on the ground that the
courts had repeatedly held that Interstate
Insurance was not interstate commerce.
and hence could not be reached by con-
gress except through an amendment TO
the Constitution.

A LION STORY.
Tragic Experience With One Of the
African Man EstcTa.

MANY years ago." says a writer.
before the arrival of the railway
and the sportsman in east Africa.
the natives were decimated bv lions
1t was impossible in some districts
to procure mail carriers. Appalling
stories are still related of the fear
ass ferocity of these beasts. The
dllway was building at Kin. Several
coolies had been carried OF by an
old lion, and one night Ryall, an
English engineer who had seen
much service in India, decided to sit
up in railway carriage on the
chance of getting shot. With him
were Mr.. Huebner, the German con-
sui, and an Italian, PARENT. The
night was dark, with but little
moon, and after midnight Ryall
commented upon the brightness of
the frehies near the carriage and
also remarked that he had seen a
rat repeatedly cross and recross a
spot where the steel rail glinted in
the moonlight.
But the supposed frefies were
the luminous eyes of the lion they
waited for, and the rat was the slow
movement of his tail. If Ryall had
recognized this, his life would have
been saved. Tired of their vigil to-
ward the morning, the three watch
ers went to sleep, Huebner on the
upper berth, the two others below.
The carriage was the ordinary sleep
ing carriage familiar to Indian tray
elers, with a lavatory beyond the
couches. An hour had passed, the
party was asleep, when the lion
jumped into the carriage and seized
Ryall, while in a moment PARENT
had slipped into the lavatory and
closed the door.
"The movements Of the lion, or
more probably, his weight thrown
on one side, caused the door by
which he had entered the car to
close. Thus Huebner's experience
was most terrible. The rifles were be-
low, and on the upper berth he re-
NAMED while the lion killed Mr.. Ry-
all within three feet of him. After
a few awful minutes the great beast
jumped out through the window
with Ryall's body in its mouth. >
