RAILWAY RATE BILL
IT rs BELIEVED THAT CON.
FERRIES WILL AGREE TODAY.

RMS afternoons session of the railroad
rate conferees will eliminate all differences
between the Senate and House on that
measure. according to the prediction of the
conferees.
There Is practically but one Senate
amendment yet to be disposed of-that re-
quirfng tho giving Of FIVE days notice before
the issuance OF an Injunction setting aside
an order Of the commission. There Is no
question that provision for notice will be
made. 1t Is said, but strong arguments are
being advanced to show that the matter of
time should be left In the discretion OF the
court. The argument Is made that in some
cases five days. and in others a less time
undoubtedly would meet the situation bet
ter than fixed and uniform time in all
cases.
The brief forenoon session resulted in an
understanding which will eliminate the
Jim Crow" car amendment
The work Of drawing the report Of the
conferees already has begun.
