MIR. BURKErr's RESOLUTION. +,
Wants to Know How Authorized In
vestigation Is Getting Along.

Senator Burkett called on the Interstate
commerce commission yesterday to see
how the investigation authorised by his
resolution passed by the last Congress Is
getting along. This resolution authorized
the commission to investigate the practices
of express companies of the west in enter
ing into business in competition with their
patrons. 1t Is alleged that these COM
panies urge their employees to secure bust
ness In the handling Of fruit and other
articles of commerce under conditions that
give the companies an opportunity to dis
crfminate In express charges against their
patrons who may be their competitors in
the shipment OF these commodities. The
Hepburn act excluded express companies
and pipe lines from the operation of the
law affecting railroads as common carriers
80 that 1t Is questionable whether the inter-
state commerce commission can apply a
remedy for the conditions complained Of
by Senator Burkett and others of Nebraska
and elsewhere But the work of the COM
mission is expected to develop the fact OF
the practices by the express companies, and
II the commission finds determinations Of
that nature and cannot prevent them there
will be- propositions for additional legis-
lation at the next session of Congress.
1t is expected the commission will soon
take up this investigation, and its And
ings may be ready to be submitted to Con-
gress in December.
