PRODUCTION VERY SMALL.
Secretary Taft Discusses Philippine
Tobacco Industry. *.

Washington, Feb 9.-The tobacco
industry in the Philippines was dis
cussed by Secretary Taft during the
day before the senate committee on
the Philippines. He said the entire
amount of tobacco exported by the
islands annually was less than the to-
bacco production of Lancaster, Pa.
Secretary Taft said the United States
had nothing to fear from competition
with the islands as result of lower
duties on Philippine tobacco.
In Connecticut, Mr.. Taft said, 100
pounds of tobacco was raised on an
acre; Pennsylvania raised 400 pounds
and the Philippines only 1916 pounds.
Few of the cigars made in the Philip
pines were of high enough grade to
sell in the United States and the good
cigars made in Manila were manufac-
tured by such well paid labor that the
cost of their production was almost
equal to the cost of an equal grade in
the United States.

Rate Bill,
Brief Summary Of Hepburn
Measure as. Passed a by
:... AZ. the House .

Washington, D. c., February g.
The Hepburn bill, as passed, gives
the interstate commerce commission
authority, when rate has been COM
planned Of as unreasonable" by a,
shipper, to investigate that rate, state
whether or not it is unreasonable and,
af found to- be unreasonable, to name
q rate which is to be just and reason.
sble and fairly remunerative. which
to to ii be a the maximum rate to be
charged.
This rate 80 fixed lis to 60 into effect:
thirty days after it lis announced by
the commission, subject during that
time to be set aside or suspended by
the commission or by the courts. After
1t has gone into effect it is to remain
the rate for three years.
Another important feature is the
definition of the word railroad" and
Transportation" in a manner to in

within the control Of the commission.
This power to name a reasonable rate

RAILROADS
Are on the Senate Carpet
and Tillman Uses His
PitchfOfk

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9.--Mr. Tillman,
in the senate, referred to a petition
previously presented by him from the
Red Rock Fuel company of West Vir- I
ginia complaining that the Baltimore
and Ohio company had refused to per-
NIT that company to connect its tracks
with those of the Baltimore and Ohio,
thus, as Mr.. Tiilman expressed it,
i"bottling up the company"
He said that at the time Mr.. Elkins
had said there was a remedy under
the state laws of West Virginia. He
then presented a letter from Governor
Dawson Of West Virginia complaining
of the difficulty in administering the
laws. The governor added:
+ 4'It may be that the Pennsylvania
Railroad company does not legally
own a controlling part OF the Balti-
more and Ohio Railroad company, or
the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway
company, or the Norfolk and Western
Railway company, but have no doubt
that an investigation will show that
the Pennsylvania Railroad company
practically controls these three great
trunk lines, which traverse West Vir-
ginia and which are the only means
whereby the. products of this state,
| including coal, can be shipped to either
| the lakes in the West or other mar
kets In the East.
-. In the Grasp Of a. Trust. =
Hence it is a fact that West Viz
ginia today Is In the grasp OF rail
road trust, which practically says
! what part Of the state shall be de-
i veloped and what shall not be devel-
oped, how much coal shall be shipped
| out Of the state, to what points or
parts It shall be slapped and when II
shall be shipped. OF course It makes
Its own rates and we are helpless.
The. Pennsylvania railroad is very
largely Interested In the production or
shipment Of bitutinous coal; it will
naturally look after its own interests
and the interests OF TIE people along
Its lines in Pennsylvania and else
where first OF all and therefore the in.
terests of West Virginia are subor-
| uludteo " lie AHtSTestS oI GneSe JILL
ers and our railroads, upon which we
are dependent, are controlled by an
alien corporation practically in COM
| petition with us"
The governor concluded by request
ing an official investigation into the
| state of affairs and Mr.. Tillman said
that he would move for such an in
! vestigation but for the fact that the
1 house was moving in that direction.
He said that, as the letter came from
/ the Republican governor of the state,
It was of transcendent Importance and
he did not see how an investigation
could be refused and, unless the house
should move in that matter, he would
ask the senate to order an inquiry.
