FACTIONS IN SENATE GET TO.
GETHER ON COURT REVIEW
FEATURE OF MEASURE.
COMPROMISE SATISFACTORY 70 ALL
OBSTACLES TO THE SPEEDY PAS
SAGE OF HOUSE BILL AP-
PARENTLY REMOVED.

Washington, May 5.--What amounts
practically to an agreement on the ex-
listing differences concerning court
features OF the railroad rate bilf has
been reached by senate conferences
extending over the last week and Sen
ator Allison will offer an amendment
conferring jurisdiction upon the cir
cult courts to hear and determine suits
brought against the interstate COM
merce commission. The amendment
will not suggest to the courts whether
their judicial review shall be confined
to constitutional questions or whether
It shall be an inquiry into the justice
or reasonableness Of the rates fixed
by the commission. Senator Long,
who made the principal legal argu'
ment for the house bill, and Senators
Aldrich and Crane, the leaders In the
movement seeking an amendment pro-
viding for broad court review, have
expressed themselves as favoring the
amendment and both factions are
agreed that the compromise is salts
factory to President Roosevelt. I'm
doubtedy this means that obstacles TO
the speedy passage of the measure
have been removed.
Whether the conservatives or the
radicals have won a victory is q Ques-
ton that is not disturbing either fac.
ton. The agreement in a measure is
regarded as political. 1t is believed
that now practically the entire Repub-
lican strength of the senate will be
cast for the bill, whereas under the
long continued estrangement 1t was
conceded that 1t would require minor
ity endorsement to pass the bill and
the Democratic party would be In posi-
tion to take full credit for 1t.

FINDINGS OF GARFIELD REPORT
Flagrant Discrimination In Favor o.
Standard OIL Company.


Washington, May 5.-The report of
Commissioner OF Corporations Garfield
was sent to congress during the day.
It is a document of considerable length
and covers the subject thoroughly. In
summing up his findings tho commits
sioner says:
'"rhe general result OF the investiga-
ton has been to disclose the existence
Of numerous and fiagrant discrimina-
tions by the railroads in behalf OF the
Standard Oil company and its anil
ated corporations. With compara-
lively few exceptions, mainly OF other
large concerns in California, the Stand
ard has been the sole beneficiary OF
such Determinations. In almost every
section of the country that company
has been found to enjoy some unfair
advantages over its competitors and
some of these Determinations affect
enormous areas.
DETERMINATIONS in the transporta-
tlon of oil embrace variety OF forms,
the more important OF which may be
classed under the following heads:
First Secret and semi-secret rates
Second Determinations In the
open arrangement OF rates.
"Third-n DETERMINATIONS In classin

are neyiIapic under system In which
the big shippers and the railroads are
left free to crush out all individual
initiative and all power of Independent
action because Of the absence OF ade-
Quate and thorough going govern
mental control. Exactly similar condi-
tions obtain in a large part of the
West and Southwest"
1t Is not possible, he says, to put
into figures the exact amount by
which the Standard profits through the
gross favoritism shown 1t by the rail-
roads In connection with the open
rates. "The profit Of course comes
not merely by the saving In the rate
itself as compared with its COM
petitors, but by the higher prices 1t Is
able to charge and by complete con-
troll of the market which it secures,
thereby getting the profit on the
whole consumption"

CALLS ATTENTION TO THE
METHOD OF EvADlNG LAW

The president calls attention to that
feature of the report regarding the
manner in which the law Is evaded by
treating as state commerce what In
reality Is merely part Of interstate
commerce. He says 1t Is clearly
shown that this device Is employed
on the New York Central railroad. as
well as on many other railroads, in
such fashion as to amount to thwart-
ing the purpose of the law, although
the forms Of the law may be complied
with"
It Is unfortunately not true, he
says, that the Standard Oil company Is
the only corporation which has bene.
fitted and is benefitting in wholly I'M
proper fashion by an elaborate series
Of rate Determinations. The sugar
trust, he adds, according to the inves-
tigation now in progress. rarely II ever
pays the lawful rate for transpOrta-
ton. He declares that In the effort
to prevent the railroads from uniting
for improper purposes I'VE have very
unwisely prohibited them from uniting
for proper purposes; that is, for pur-
poses Of protecting themselves and
the general public as against the power
of the great corporations"
He favors as an element Of com.
petition the passage Of some such Law
as that which has already passed the
house, putting alcohol used In the arts
and manufactures upon the free list
and Of keeping the fee to oil and coal
lands Of the Indian tribes or on the
public domain In the government, the
lands to be leased only on such terms
and for such periods as will enable
the government to enjoy control Of
them

SAGE ON SUBJECT.
COMPETITORS Al MERCY OF TRUST
OCTOPUS ENJOYS UNFAIR AD
vANTAGES IN ALL PARTS
OF THE COUNTRY.

Washington. May s. - President
Roosevelt has transmitted to congress
the report OF James r. Garfield, COM
missioner Of corporations, giving the
results of his investigation OF trans
portation and freight rates In connec-
tion with the oil industry.
The president expresses the view
that the report is Of capital impor-
tance because OF the effort now being
made to secure such enlargement OF
the scope OF the interstate commerce
commission as will confer upon It
power to meet the demonstrated needs
Of the situation. The facts In the re-
port. he declares. are for the most
part not disputed. That the Standard
OH company has benefited enormous
" I'D almost to the present moment
by secret rates, many OF which were
clearly unlawful, the president says
the report clearly shows. the beneAt
thereby secured amounting to at least
@75O.000 q year. On this subject ne
says:
This @76OO00 represents the profit
that the Standard OH company OBJ
tains at the expense of the railroads:
but OF course the ultimate result Is
that It obtains much larger profit at
the expense Of the public. A very
striking result Of the investigation has
been that shortly after the discovery
OF these secret rates by the commits
sioner OF corporations the major por-
tion OF them were promptly corrected
by the railroads, SO that most Of them
have now been done away with. This
immediate correction. partial or COM
plete, OF the evil OF the secret rates, Is
OF course an acknowledgment that
they were wrong and yet were perse-
vered In until exposed"
