DANIEL OPPOSES
BAILEY RATE PLAN
CONTINUED from First Pnge.)


rates Mr. Daniel spoke at length Of tho
privilege Of invoking the due process Of
law, saying that the princ!cAe had BEEN
IN vogue among Anglo Saxon peoples for
more than seven hundred years.
Every individual, whether human or
corporate" he said. rs entitled under
that principle to have his her or Ms
property protected In accordance with
the law OF tho land. made in accordance
with constitutional authority"
However, there were different classes
of processes and rights, and they must
be dealt with differently and the qucs-
ton OF Interstate transportation In ac-
cordance with that practice Of classlh-
cation must be dealt with by using the
mechanism ordinarily relied upon, such
as the Interstate Commerce Commission.
Question of Review.
This line Of argument brought Mr..
Daniel 10 consider the question OF a re-
view by the courts Of the findings Of the
commission. On that point he expressed
the opinion that III is wisest and best to
provide for q judicial review or appeal.
but at the same time I have no doubt
that If no such review Is provided. tn,
system OF Jurisdiction as administered
for the past thirty years would prove ALL
sufficient to secure every right to all
concerned"
The senator went on to say that there
could be no mistake in allowing the find
ings OF the commission to stand unds-
turbed and then entered upon an effort
10 show that the state and the national
government have a perfect right to con-
troll the AFFAIRS OF transportation corno-
rations. He took a position In opposition
to Mr.. Bailey's amendment prohibiting the
Inferior courts from suspending the find
ings of the Interstate commission. 10
prchibl. the granting of an interlocutory
injunction he feared would be con-
strucd as not in accord with the constl-
tufional requirement regarding the due
PROCESS of law, but he admitted that tho
subject was full Of rerplexity. Neither
commission nor n State could make
Il tate SO binding that the courts could
not interfere upon application, and II the
courts could take jurisdiction they could
grant Immediate relief IL satisfied that
wrong had been done.
Z He decla red that it. was neither Just,
equitable nor wise to deprive a. carrier
of the right to Injunction and at the
same time apply the provision imposing
a fine of S., 900 Il day.
Will Continue To-day.
In view OF all the facts. he could not
sec his way clear to shear the courts of
any of their rights. Stil, he believed
that n better means Of obtaining celebrity
of action should be secured than Is now
provided for by the bill. To that end he
would have all parties to proceeding
before the commission adducc all OF |
their evidence before the commission: |
require that the courts be supplied with |
4 transcript Of all the testimony taken
before the commission, and exact pre-
vious notice Of injunctions.
Mr.. Daniel did not conclude his re-
marks and will have the floor again to-

PROVIDENCE, r. l., December 1.-Pres-
ident w. H. P. Faunce of Brown Univer-
sity has begun an investigation Of the mys-
FERROUS disappearance from this city of a
portrait Of the late Secretary of State, John
Hay The portrait was believed to have
been intended as a gift to Brown, of which
university Secretary Hay was a graduate.
1t was placed on exhibition recently, but
has disappeared and every effort to locate
it has failed.
President Faunce communicated with w.
D. Murphy OF New York. the artist who ex-
ecuted the portrait, and has learned from
him that four portraits, those of President
Roosevelt, President Mckinley. Secretary
Hay and Senator Mark Hanna, were OBJ
tanned from the artist last March under
the representation that they were to be
exhibited for the benefit of a society In
either Washington Maryland. Subse-
quently trace of the paintings was lost and
the district attorney of Washington made
an Investigation. A man giving the name
of VIM. J. Wilson was arrested and the
portraits of President Mckinley and Sen
ator Hanna were found in vacant house
in Philadelphia. There was no trace of the
Roosevelt and Hay portraits.
President Faunce is now endeavoring to
trace the painting by means of the records
Of the local express companies. The two
missing pictures are said to be of great
value.

Moose hunters are having unusually good
sport in the Canadian forests this autumn,
owing apparently to the increase in the

necessity for an improved system of game
protection. Some plendid trophies have
now been secured, both in Quebec and In
New Brunswick. In the latter province
