saulting White Woman.

Eastman, Ga. May 14-NIrs. Pope. a
widow who lives alone about six miles
north of Eastman, was assaulted by Il ne
gro named Will Wommcr last Friday
night. Wommcr called Mrs. Pope from,
her house, telling her Il ncighbor was
sick. He then drew a knife. told her if
she made an outcry he would cut her
throat. that if she made the assault
known he would kill her and that he
would be back the next night.
The next day Mrs. Pope cut n hole in
the front door and covered it with n piece
of cloth. When she heard someone step
upon the porch Saturday night she asked
if it was the same person who had been
there the night before. When the reply
came that it was she snatched the cloth
away and began firing. one bullet striking
Wommer in the stomach and passing
through the body. Wommer fled.
Neighbors learned of the occurrence.

cd to assure me that the prospects OF an
agreement among a large number OF the
Democratic senators was good. l heard
nothing further from Senator Bailey until
a later date. I informed you of what
occurred at the interview between the
two senators and me, and you told me-
that you had been informed from va
rious Democratic sources that an agree
ment among the Democrats upon any
amendment would be impossible. The
two senators called upon me again on
the sd or oath of April. There was soma
further talk about the form of the
amendment. The suggestion was made
that it might be impossible, attc: voting
upon the provision foIbiddinS all inter
locutory injunctions, to agree upon an
amendment which should include the
Long amendment and what had been
known as the Ovcrman amendment L
then said that in my opinion any amend
ment drawn by anyone representing the
executive branch of the government. even
though it were inspired from Heaven,
would not be accepted without change by
the Senate: that that attitude was nat
liral and proper. and that il the exact
language Of an amendment which could
be adopted should be agreed upon. it
ought to be drawn by the senators them
selves l suggested Senator Allison as a
proper person for further conference. and
the matter so far as l was conccTne q,
ended there.
II remember hearing nothing more of it
until I was just about taking the train
for North Carolina on May 4th, when I
was informed by Mr.. Tillman and Mr.
Chandler that YOU had approved another
amendment known as the Allison amend
rlent. There was nothing in the CONVEX
satons between the senators and me
which in any way bound YOU to any par
ticular amendment or i'll the slightest de-
gree impaired Your liberty ut any Tina
to acquiesce in any movement which You
should deem eXpedent and in the public
interest.

MONOPOLY
IN GRAINS
EXPOSED
Collusion Between Rail
ways and Elevator
Companies.
La Toilette Calls for an
investigation OF
Situation.
Senate Votes Resolution
Which Will Result
in Inquiry.

WASHINGTON, June 25.-The Senate
today passed Senator La Follette's joint
resolution extending the scope of the
inquiry now being conducted by the
Interstate Commerce Commission un-
der the Tillman- Gillespie resolution so
as to have it include the transporta-
ton. and storage of grains. In support
of his contention Senator La Toilette
said that testimony taken by the COM
mission indicates joint ownership be-
tween the railroads and the elevator
companies to the detriment of the
farmers, who are entitled to free and
open market. He then gave the names
of individuals and corporations which
had secured such inside privileges as
to give them monopolies along various
western railroad lines. The list given
includes the following: Chicago, Rock
Island and Pacific to Charles Counsel
man; Chicago, Milwaukee and St Paul
the Armour Elevator Company; Atchi-
son, Topeka and Santa Fe, the Richard
son Company; Union Pacific the Pea
vey Elevator Company Chicago and
Northwestern, the Bartlett and Frazier
Elevator Company; Chicago, Burling-
ton and Quincy, the Armour Elevator
Company.
AS going to confirm his Inference of
combination, La Toilette said that the
head of the Armour Elevator Company
is a large stockholder and director of
the Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Paul
He then read a number of letters and
quoted various statements to show
that the railroads favored certain in
terests to which they are friendly and
Disseminated against others which are
not so well regarded by them, with the
result that the price of wheat to the
producers is below what it should. be-
He declared in conclusion that prac-
tically all the grain shipped into Chi
cago over any one line goes to one
dealer and expressed the opinion that
these wholesale dealers are closely al
lied among themselves, thus constitut-
ing virtual monopoly of the entire
grain business of the country.
Senator Nelson confirmed the state
ments of La Toilette, saying that he
had personal knowledge of many in
stances OF determinations by. the rail-
roads in favor of lines of elevators He
had no doubt he said, that inyestiga-
tion would show the same combination
between the railroad companies and
the elevator companies that had been
found to exist between the railroads
and the coal compa uies.
The resolution was then adopted
without division.

Pipe-I .ine Provision Is
: Stricken From the
Measure.
Tillman Calls Attention
to the Action Of the
Conferees.
Says Brand IS. O. Com
pany Should Adorn
Certain Members.

WASHINGTON, June 25.-Immediate-
ly after the Senate met today the clerk
of the House of Representatives an
nounced the. action of that body on the
railroad rate bill, but it was allowed
to lie on the Vice Presidents desk un-
til $3.50 o'clock. when it was called up
by Senator Tillman
After the report was read Tillman
called attention to the fact that his
name was not attached. He presented
and defended the report, he said, at the
request of the Republican Senate con-
ferees, but he said he was opposed to
the agreement concerning one amend
ment, to which he would later move
that the Senate disagree. He had ref
erence to the McLaurin amendment
divorcing the carrying and producing
business, which was amended SO that
il does not apply to pipe lines.
The change in this amendment. "in
plain English ne said, meant that
the Standard Oil had got in it's work
The agreement in regard to this
amendment, he said, relieved the Stan
dard oil Company from the control and
regulation of the Interstate Commerce
Commission.
When the bin was sent to conference
the second time Senator Tillman said
he found an entirely different atmos-
phere from that of the first confer
ence. as the House conferees insisted
upon opening up the whole subject, in
cluding all matters on which an agree
ment had been reached.
Then 1 began TO smell a mouse or
something" he said.
Continuing. Tillman said that any
way he became more or less skeptical
as to motives, as one is likely to do
after serving in the Senate
He contended that the change of the
words common carriers" TO rail
roads" would simply destroy the eff
feet of making pipe lines common car
riers. BY this change the divorce
ment Of transportation from produc-
tion would be confined to raili Dads,
thus relieving the Standard oil Com
pany OF the operation of the require
ment that transportation companies
shall not carry articles produced by
themselves.
So firmly was he convinced of tue in
strumentality of the Standard OH Com
psny in securing this change that in
his estimation Every Senator who
votes for the conference report would
have s. o. Company branded on his
forehead. He did not mean to vote
for it, because he did not want any
body saying. You've got IS. o. Com
pany" branded on your forehead Bon
Tillman.'"
He considered the independent COM
panies, whose interests were supposed
to be involved, TO be myths
