go to Washington to examine the evidence
presented during the hearings in this city
and II is likely the investigation will be
Resumed in that city. either the latter part
of next week or early the following week.
Testimony of sensational character was
given today by F. Albert Won Boyneburg
general manager of the Reakert Bros. Coal
company, coal operators Of this city. He
stated that within the last two and one-half
years his eompany's car supply had been so
Inadequate that the business had been prac-
tically ruined. He declared that other
comp6nie had been favored in the distri-
button of cars and said he had no doubt
that discrimination has been practiced
against his company, because 1t had failed
to make gifts of stock to the railroad Off
Gals. He gave 1t as his opinion that
President A. ]. Cassatt was responsible for
the determinations.
Through railroad employees It was devel-
oped thai for a number of years and until
recently the Berwind- White company $
coal was shipped to tidewater without be-
ing weighed. Instead the railroad esti-
mated the weight Of each car by adding
per cent to the capacity figures stenciled on
the car. II was also shown that the Sus-
quehanna Coal company, which is owned
by the Pennsylvania Railroad company, has
the exclusive use OF Greenville pier, New
York barbor and has a virtual monopoly
of the sale of bunker coal to the tugs and
small steamers.
1t was brought out that certain coal
companies are given allowances for oper-
ating branch lines from their mines to the
main lines and that the railroad made this
allowance to the Latrobe- Connellsvilie COM
pany when the spur was operated by the
railroad.

BILL PASSED
Attempt to Amend Grain Inspection
Section Fails.

Section Fails.
WASHINGTON. May &.-The senate to-
day passed the agricultural appropriation
bill carrying an appropriation OF T.SOO0OO
and without a word Of debate or an OBJ
lection from any source and added to 1t as
an amendment the bill providing for an in.
spection of fresh meats intended for domes-
tic consumption.
The greater part OF the time spent on the
AGRICULTURAL bill was devoted to a discus
sion OF the provision for a government In
spection OF grain. Senator McCumber made
an effort to have the measure so amended
as to require the issuance OF certificates Of
such inspection, but failed.
A number Of other bills were passed dur
ing the day.
| The sea level Panama canal bill was
made the unfinished business of the SEN
! ate.
The message OF the house. declining to
accept the senate amendments to the rail-
road rate bill was received, but the senate
conferees were not named. The senate adj
| journed until Monday

passage OF the agricultural appropriation
bill by the senate today. Senator McCum-
Der attacked the grain inspection service at

lars by having their wheat graded as in

could prove his statements.
He advocated a national inspection sys-
tenn. Senator Hansbrough supported the
contention and assertions OF Mr. MeCum-

Senator Patterson pronounced the revela-
tions OF the two senators from North Da-

The wonder Is that ths administrations
responsible for the state OF affairs have
not been spewed out and honest men elected
in their stead" said Mr. Patterson in
the course Of a speech in which he dwelt
upon the en0rmity Of the offenses COM
plainsd OF.
When the reading OF the bill had been
concluded Senator Beveridge moved the In
corporation IN the measure Of his bill pro
vidfnE for the inspection Of meats for do
nestle consumption and Il ~as agreed 10
without discussion. The bill was then
passed.
