negatives as to patronage that they now
enjoy. With the President disposed TO
strip the members of the House of their
power in nomination of postmasters, the
members of the House are not yearn-

Argument of House.
But the opponents Of the bill in the
House will not ascribe their opposition
to any such bald reason as patronage.
II will be argued that the bill goes be-
yond the Constitution because it gives
the President power to transfer consuls
from one place to another. As the SEN

which provides for full review by the
courts.
This. together with the question as to
whether a rate fixed by the Interstate
Commerce Commission shall go into ef-
feet Immediately and remain in effect
pending the decision Of the courts. is the
real point at issue between the Repuo-
iican COnsg grVaUiVes and radicals, OF the
so-calIed OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES and Ad-
forces in the committee
The Presidents view that rate fixed
by the commission shall remain in ef-
feet during the judicial proceedings, is
stDnorted by Senators Dolliver and
Clapp Senator Cullom. who is absent.
also agrees with this position
Senator Knox plan. which is indorsed
by the other five Republicans. allows the
rate to be suspended during the court
review, but requires the railroad to put
up a bond TO cover the difference be
tween the original rate and the lower
one fixed by the commission, so that the
shipper may be reimbursed, If the court
decides in his favor. In order that the
shipper may not be undUly embarrassed
by long litigation the Knox plan pro-
vides means for expediting all such
cases through the courts
Democrats in the Middle.
The Democrats of the committee oc-
cupy a middle ground. They have
agreed 20 support an amendment for
judicial review. but insist that the rate
of the commission must remain in ef-
feet pending the courts decision. Wheth-
er in view of these diverse opinions
# will be possible for the committee to
come 70 an agreement so that a ma jor-
ity report may be made on any one
remains to be seen.
Senators DOlliVeT and Clapp will make
p minority report on the Hepburn bill
as 1t passed the House without amend
ment. even if they have no other sig
natures than their own attached 20 T.
Thus the real fight will be transferred
to the floor Of the Senate. where the
legislation that is to be finally adopted
will he actually framed.
