Kansas City, Mo-, Mar. 1.-THE in

Kansas. The commission adjourned
to meet again at time and place to

pantes and manufacturing interests,
and the methods by which the trans
portation departments of different rail-
roads prevent other coal companies
from operating In Kansas
Many who heard the testimony and
watched the investigation here con-
cluded that the commission would
probably grant a lower freight rate
upon fuel oil. In the hearing Mr..
Prouty of the commission. asked a
great many questions of railroad traf-
fic men about what would be the prln-
cipal effect of a lower freight rate up
on the fuel oil
Ex-senator Cockrell, OF the commits
sion. said tonight:
This Is just a start. We will 60 -
Washington and investigate the oil
and coal business. We must get great
deal of information from the rail-
road. The question Of ownership OF
the railroads must be settled, but the
trouble will come when we under
take TO learn the ownership of all
these concerns. We must try TO give
every one a fair chance"

HOUSE ACTION MAY GO

Heard About EN-.

Washington, Mar 14.-Whether the
caucus on the statehood bill to be par
ticipated in by republicans of the house
tomorrow is to "bind" those who at
tend has been an absorbing topic of
discussion among the ''insurgent
members of the party today. No con-
clusion has been reached. For this
reason a conference of those republi-
cans who wish to concur in the senate

clock tomorrow. At this conference
1t will be determined whether the in
surgents shall attend the caucus or
shall stay away
1t is stated by the insurgents" that
they have been urged to attend the
caucus on the ground that 1t is to b.
a conference" and not caucus. How
ever. there are varied views as to the
binding effect of either caucus or
conference. Some members contend
that neither binds the participants,
while others hold that conferences do
not bind, while caucuses do.

lost faith in the overwhelming repu5-
lican majority which voted for the
house bill He has received many tele-
grams today and admits that infu-
ences are working TO secure concur

Mr.. TILLMAN DELIVERS
A FEW HOT SHOTS

Washington, Mar. 1.-THE railroad
rate bill today reached the controver-
sial stage in the senate. The question
came up in the regular order of busi-
ness shortly before o'clock and held
the floor until the doors were closed
for a brief executive session shortly
after o'clock.
Mr., Raynor was the chief speaker
of the day, and the debate that took
place was provoked by some of his ut
terances. Among the senators who
were aroused by him We're Foraker,
Lodge and Dolliver.
Both the Ohio senator and the Mas
sachusetts senator took exception to
Mr.. Raynor's contention that the rail-
roads have interfered with the franz
ing of the bill, and Foraker also ex-
pressed himself as dissatisfied with
the intimation that the railroads are
represented on the floor of the SEN
ate.
Mr.. Dolliver expressed displeasure
with the plea for amendments and
went so far as to say that the help of
such friends as Raynor could very
well be dispensed with.
Other senators who participated in
the debate were Aldrich, Tillman and
Knox.
Knox freely expressed his opinion
that the bill would be unconstitutional
with a provision for review of the
commissions findings by the court.
Mr.. Tillman reiterated his objection to
the bill and INDUCED in some char
acteristic phrases in stating his posi-
ton. concluding with the remark that
he believed that the bill could be so
amended as to make it acceptable.
The argument of Mr.. Raynor was
directed in favor Of the general prop
ostion that congress has the right to
fix rates. but that the bill would be SO
amended as to dispense with the pro-
vision. He also advocated other
amendments
