Senate Passes La FoIees Resolution Ordering InVest

t. individuals on Certain Lines

washington, June 26.The senate
has passed Senator La Follette's Joint
resolution extending the scope of the
curry now being conducted by the
Interstate commerce commission UNI
der the Tfllman-G Gillespie resolution 50
as to have it include the transporta-
ton and storage of grains.
Speaking in support Of the resolu-
tion MT. La Toilette said the country
had been astounded at the revelations
that had been made in the matter OF
The combination between the coal pro
ducing industry and the railroads and
be felt satisfied; that the prosecution
/ Of inquiry would show as bad condi-
ton in the grain business. He as
serted that corruption had been dis
covered at every place where inquiry
had been made and asserted that the
whole system is permeated with
fraud" In support of his contentious
he said that testimony taken by the
commission indicates joint owner
ship between the railroads and the
elevator companies to the detriment
Of the farmers, who are entitled to a
free and open market He then gave
the nameS Of individuals and corpora
tons which had secured such inside
privileges as to give them Inonopolies

Price of Wheat Deprecated.
He then read number OF letters
and quoted various statements to show
1 that the railroad companies favor
some elevators to which they are
friendly and discriminate against 9th
l;ers which are not so we'll regarded by
4 them, with the result that the price of
wheat to the producers is far below
what 1t should be.
He declared in conclusion that prac-
t!caIly all the grain shipped into Chi
cago over any one line goes to one
Idealer and expressed the opinion that
these wholesale dealers are closely
allied among themselves, thus con-
stituting a virtual monopoly of the
entire grain business of the country
Senator Nelson confirmed the state
ments of MI La Toilette, saying that
be had personal knowledge of many
Instances of Determinations by the
railroads In favor Of line elevators. He
| had no doubt, he said. that investiga-
| ton would show the same combina-
/ ton between the railroad companies

roads and the coal companies.
The resolution was then adopted
without division.
