Republican senators who have con-
tended that the house railroad rate

passed without an amendment giving

day in the. committee room CT Senator
Aldrich and after conference Sen
ator Knox was requested TO give his
attention to an examination of the de-
cision with a view to informing them
just what bearing it will have on the
pending rate bill.
Senator Knox promised TO give the
decision his closest attention. From
the first examination he declared it
seemed to be in accord with the opin-
ion he has held since the house bill
was reported by the senate committee
without amendment Justice Brewer
in the Michigan case said:

therefore, be CONCEDED that an at,

president or any ministerial officer or
board of power to fix rate of taxa
