INSIDE INFORMATION
Regarding Railroads Going to Congress
from Interstate Commission.

Washington. Jan. 30.-In response to
the resolution of the House Of Repre-
SentativeS, President Roosevelt today
called upon the Interstate commerce
commission for a report regarding the
alleged existence OF combination or
arrangement between the Pennsylvania
Railroad CO.. the Baltimore 4 Ohio,
the Chesapeake & Ohio and other rail-
roads in violation of the antitrust
law. Chairman Knapp at once called
his colleagues into conference and the
reply is in course of preparations.
Inquiry at the offices of the inter-
state commerce commission today
disclosed the fact that the only data
upon which the commission can base
its report outside Of matter already
of public knowledge is contained in the
reports of the railroads themselves an
nually supplied to the commission in
accordance with the law. These re-
ports, the commission always has re-
gard-d as confidential. but it is under
stood that details of management and
ownership Of stocks. bonds. etc, are
given in them which would throw con-
siderable light on the subject in issue.

THE SIMS RESOLUTION
On Cotton Ginniro to Be Reported
Favorabiy to the House.

| Washington Jan. 30.-After hearing
J. 4. Taylor, president of the National
| Ciinner:, Association. and Director s. n.
| y. North. of the Census Bureau, today
the House committee on census decld-
| ed to make Il favorable report on the
Sims resolution with slight amendment.
The resolution as changed by the com
cittee is as follows:
"ResOlved, that the Secretary of
Commerce and Labor be required, il
| not incompatible with the public in
terests, to direct the director of cen
sus to compile and transmit to the
House of Representatives the Sinners
estimate of cotton remaining to be gin
neG, which We're collected in cOnnec-
ton with his semi-monthly canvass of
Jan. 16, last
Mr.. North assured the committee that
he was perfectly willing to furnish this
information which is in the possession
Of the bureau, although never made
public, but said he wanted the public
| TO understand that he is not responsible
for giving out the figures nor for any
| effect their publication may have on
the cotton market.
Mr.. Taylor said the estimates of var
ious cotton men and companies on the
unginned cotton varied from 100000 tO
100000 bales. This discrepancy, he
said, is annoying to cotton men of the
South and if the government publishes
its figures this annoyance will be over
come and the true amount actually
shown.

of the state Legislatures and opposed by
the railroads. and he added that he did
not want TO be a party to any s,h,e ,erfrea
to avoid considera ton. He though, tho
passage of his national incorporation bill
would remedy not only these bat other
evils.
The question Of the rt tference of the lin
bility bills had not been disposed of when
at . o'clock the shipping bill was laid
before the Senate.
Gallinger from the merchant marine
commission suggested a number Of
amendments to the shipping bill. all O,
which were accepted. Among the changes
suggested was the elimina tor of sub-di-
vision eight of Article c. granting an in
creased subsidy to the American Line
and all Of Sections S and 10, relating Il
tonnage taxes.
Frye expressed the opinion that the re-
duction of the subsidy for the American
Line would drive that company under a
foreign flag, and Gallingcr agreed with
him.
FRYE also spoke in favor of the tonnage
tax provision, which had been elirnina ted.
Gallinger said that the tonnage tax
provisions had been taken out because
of the constitutional objections made 10
them that as they provide for the raising
Of revenue they cannot properly originate
in the Senate. He expressed the hope
that the provisions would be restored by
the House.
Lodge addressed the House in support
of the subsidy principle Of the bill. He
said a subsidy was legitimate when Civ
en- for q public purpose and equally avail
able TO all. He also said that the propos-
I'd bounty was in line with many prece-
dents.
Lodge also related the details of a COM
bnation OF the sailing vessel owners of
Groat Britain. France and Germany,
with he adquarters in London, formed for
the purpose Of controlling the rate of the
freight on grain shipped from the Unit
cd States He sal this combination con
trollnd a tonnage of 1,9SfOoO tons and that
it had increased the freight rate from .
to 10 shillings per ton. He quoted circu-
lars in support of his statement that this
foreign combination was undertaking to
control the grain freight business OF the
United States and used the illustration
to combat the idea that free competition
gives better freight rates. IT" also re-
marked with some appearance Of sarcasm
that this combination could he reached by
means Of American antitrust legislation.
He made the point that the United States
had utterly neglected the shipping inter-
est while protecting other industries,
thus reversing the policy Of Great Bri-
