He DEFENDS ITS PROVISIONS
Claims the Iowa Senator's Criticism
Was Made Without Thorough
knowledge Of the subject-0oIIiver
Replies, Declaring the Texas sena-
tors Scheme is lmpracticable.

washington, March 21.-In the sem
ate today culbertson introduced an
amendment to the railroad rate Dill,
prohibiting the railroads from sub
scrihing to political campaign funds,
and imposing fine and Imprisonment
for it's violation. Bailey presented his
amendment to the rate bill
Before introducing it, Bailey said he
had not hoped the resolution would be
accepted without change. He also
stated the provision had been circu-
lated among friends of rate regulation
on both sides of the chamber. He had.
he said, not given the amendment to
the public, and it would not now be
SO but for the fact that Dolliver had
discussed the provision in published
Interview. He relieved the Iowa SEN
ator from imputation of intentional di-
vulgence Of another's private papers,
but said he was confident the criticism
had been made without due consider
alton. Bailey referred especially to
Delivers declaration that the Bailey
provision would deny just compensa-
tion, and replied to the criticism by
saying that he had copied the language
y OF the constitution in his proposed
amendment Replying to another fea-
ture of the interview, Bailey said the
amendment did not affect the Hep
burn bill on the question Of discrimi-
nation. He had prepared two amend
ments, both Of them tentative. One Of
Bailey's amendments, authorizes the
parties aggrieved by orders Of the in
terstate commerce commission to take
their cases to the United States courts,
but prohibits suspension of the COM
missions orders by interlocutory, de-
crees. Dolliver disavowed any inten-5
tion to reveal the secrets Of the senate,
saying the Texas senator's amendment
had been so much talked about in and
out Of the senate that he did not know
that 1t wss confidential matter. Dis
cussing the merits Of the provision, he
expressed the opinion 1t was impracti-
cable.
Senator Bailey did not know any
thing Of his fathers death while he
was speaking on the rate bill. After
he had concluded, he was called into
the cloak room and told by Senator
I Foster He Immediately left the SEN,
ate chamber.

HULL TO SUE DoBsoN
Seventh District Congressman Claims
He Was sIandered by Speech Of His
Opponent for Nomination for Con-
ore.,s

Des Moines, March 21.-Congressman
Hull yesterday gave notice that he
would bring suit against George L.
Dobse,n for damages for slander on ac-
count of his statements in his opening
campnign speech at Horsman's hall on
Monday night.
Notice was not served on MrDob-
son yesterday, but John Holloran, who
is the attorney for the congressman.
said that the petition will be filed as
soon as it is prepared.
His charges were outrageously
false said Congressman Hull last
evening, when asked about the state
ments made by Mr.. Dobson "but it is
entirely useless for us to stand about
calling one another names. At least
shall not engage in that sort OF
thing.
THE courts are constituted for the
purpose Of redressing such wrongs as
Mr.. ]Oobson has done me, and to the
COuIIS nave tdPpSilCus~ SuGtll uOl
undertake to discuss the matter out
side the courts, in all probability, but
the truth or falsity Of Mr.. Dobson's
statements can be quickly determined
in that tribunal.
Il do not know what effect the
charges made by Mr.. Dobson will have
on the political situation, but there
are some things that are dearer to a
man than political success. In bringing
this suit I believe I have taken the
quickest and best course to demon
strate to the satisfaction Of the people
of this district and of the whole state
for that matter, the trush. deny the
charles made by Mr.. Dobson, and in
the courts shall be able to establish
the falsity Of them"
The Dobson speech created consid-
erable excitement in political circles
yesterday, but the effect Of 1t could
not be determined.
Politicians are accustomed to hear
ing radical charges made against
prominent men and they are not easily
alarmed about the effect Of them. 1t
was too early to determine what the
effect would be on the people.
The fact lnaI MI. DoOooAA " -
closely associated with the Hull cam
paign two years ago, and that he
must have known then all that went
on would rather seem to discount MS
exposures now in the interest OF his
DESIRE to secure an on1ce, anu thal
seams to be the view OF the polltlclans.
n also was said that if Mr.. Dobson
had fn eye on the postoffice 1t was not
the rart of wisdom to go after cap
tain Hull so vigorously to start with.
The Elkins assault on Governor
cnn,,;ns. which probably will be CIR.
culated as a Perkins campaign docu-
ment rather overshadowed the Don-
san attack on Congressman Hull.

Gets Time and Make Answer.
Des iMoines March 21.-"I have not
had the tirne to persue Senator Elkins'
letter to me which appeared in the
newspapers yesterday morning said
Governor Cummins when asked what
he had to say in regard to 1t. Il re-
ceived a typewriter copy of the letter

give the letter careful consideration.
'If there is anything in 1t which mer-
it's reply i shall write to the senator.
Not knowing what is in this letter, l
cannot answer the points he may have
made But what have said in my
speeches is true. The examination to

hostile in spirit and character. ] saw
the questions that were handed to him
by the man said to represent all the
railroads of the country, and concern
ing these things there is no room for
a controversy.
INV statement relative to the atti-
tude of the chairman of the committee
and the hostility with which l was ex-
amined are literally true. do not know
what impelled Senator Elkins to issue
this letter to the public at this time"
