 .If after a fair test the rates are found too low. said Governor Glenn. '.though in my judgment 1t will be found they will increase receipts, then the railroads may rest assured that the State will do what is right.

 Governor Glenn called attention to- the statement of the Georgia Corporas ton Commission that fares collected under the new passenger rates are in excess of those in previous years un- der the old rates, and asserted the same condition was true In North Carolina.
 "If some of our business men would stop trying to persuade me to violate the law passed by the Legislature. which under my oath, is my duty to maintain. and which I have no right to altar or repute. and will turn their persuasive powers and influence to- wards inducing the railroads Co obey the law as passed, until 1t has had a fair test, they would be doing a much greater service to their State"

 meeting Line to Af-


 New York, Nov, 2--Accor6ing to The Times today. E. H. Hartman was tho buyer of the Central of Georgia stock sold last week by oalSleigh Thorne and Marsden J, Perry. and he has plans for the road in connection with the Iili-' nois Central lines.
 The two roads connect at Birining- ham, Ala. and the possession of the Central of Georgia, will give the Har- riman lines. another outlet to the Att lantic. A close associate of Mir. Harri- man whom questioned regarding the purchase of the Central Of Georgia by that capitalist, remarked that MT, Har- riman had not been idly watching re- cent events.
 The Times says further that in the recent annual report of the Illinois Central, November 1, was fixed as the date on which It's lines to Birmingham were to be completed and that with that date comes the news that Mir. liar rimans influence in Southern territory Is to be extended beyond Birmingham. eastward to the Seaboard at Savannah, and Westward by way of Chattanooga Birmingham. and Montgomery.
 It Is known that Messrs. Thorne and Perry paid about $3,600,000 for the Sb, ,0OO, 900 of Central of Georgia stock which they purchased last summer at the Richmond Terminal Reorganiza- tion committee and 1t Is presumed in the financial district the paper says, that the Hartman interests took over the road at not far from the same figure.

LEADERS IN FINANCIAL WORLD
 URGE ROOSEVELT 10 ACT.
President is Assured There Will
 Be No Opposition.
Assurances Are Also Given That rn- austries wnI Not oppose Enact- ment of Necessary Laws
 for Federal
 control.

Washington. Nov. 2.--It was learned here today from undoubted sources, that President Roosevelt is now being urged to call an extra session of Con- gress to deal with the financial situa- ton.
 The request comes from and repre- aenta tho judgment of the conservative leaders in the financial world. who have represented the present~situation ns one compelling action of a charac- ter which will afirmatively eradicate all ground for suspicion of American industrial methods.
 The President has been assured from most reliable sources that there will be no opposition on the part of the great Industries of the country to the enact- n1ent of the necessary laws to carry out his ideas of Federal control. to the ex- tent to which he has expounded them in his recent public utterances These assurances are made at this time to avert what has been represented as the most dangerous situation which has confronted the country during an 4ex- tended historic period. that is the eeem- ing growing lack of confidence based on known Irregularities in business methods In some quarters. and no sure end speedy means of separatinw inc good from the unsound < {.
 To this end, t.ts suggested that the President set Congress to tho firAt task of making such amendments 10 the financial laws as will result in the maximum of nexibility with the mini. mum Of basic change in our systam Next and perhaps most in importance, that the President embody his Sugxes- tions on corporation control into wac- cinct Fecomnlendations for enactment into law.
 n this connection the Presidents at-

 Sessioy, of Congress

tention has been directed to what.> : said at Provincetown. Mass. Auguss 20 last.
 T believe In national incorporation law for corporations engaged in Inter state business I believe. faythermore, that the need for action is most press ing as regards those corporations which, because they are common car rfers. exercise quasi-publfc function; and which can be completely controlled. In all respects. by the national gov eminent, by the exercise of power con ferred on the interstate commerce clause, and, if necessary under the post road clause of the constitution. The national government should exer- else over them a similar supervision and control to that which 1t exercises oyer national banks. We can do this only by proceeding farther along the lines marked out by the recent ma tional Legislation. Almost every big business concern is engaged in inter- state commerce and such a concern must not be allowed by a dexterous shifting of position. as has been often the case in the past, thereby to escape the responsibility either to State or to nation"
 To meet his views. the President then suggested amendments to the Sherman antitrust law, and the addition of q
 
 terstate commerce regulations. The benefit of having Federal legal machin- cry to detect and eradicate unwhole- some business methods at this time was said to be the desirable end to be accomplished. This would means 1t is pointed out. practical wiping off of the slate and starting afresh under business conditions which would have and which could bear the closest pub lie scrutiny.
 That the President has given the re- quest for an extra session careful con- sideration, is indicated by those who have been asked to lend their advice in the matter.
 That the information as to existing conditions is not alarming, has been the continuing assurance which has come from the governments careful observations With this in view, the President has been told that the call for an extra session of Congress might have the reverse effect from that de- sired by those who are urging such ac- tion; that 1t would tend to emphasize in the public mind an apprehension of unfavorab1e conditions which do not exist. Failing in obtaining an extra session, those who have made the ap- peal for it, have presented an alter native or an additional request that the President make 8 public statement of the assurance he feels in the sound con- dition of public credit.
 This. too, has met with opposition from the administration advisors, Both suggestions are stilI matters Of con- slderation, although no information whatever is obtainable regarding either directly from the White House.

COMPLAINT IS FILED.
New Orleans Board Of Trade Alleges
 Discrimination.

Washington. Nov. 2.-(SpecIal. 1-- The New Orleans Board of Trade has filed with the Interstate Commerce Commission another serious complaint against railroads on account of all legged increase of rates determinations and violations of law.
 It will be remembered that this Board of Trade recently complained of the Louisville and Nashville on account of rates from New Orleans to Mobile. in- sisting that St. Louis and Memphis firms were given decided advantages over New orleans business houses in rates to Mobile. Now. the Board of Trade contends that the St, Louis, Southwestern and the Texas and Pa- cific roads are making arbitrary rates on rough rice from points in Arkansas to New Orleans, which is q great blow to the agrieulturists of Arkansas and an injury to dealers in New Orleans, recognized as the price making mar ket of the United States for rough rice.
 They charge also that rates on rice are much higher than on other ar- ticles. The Board asks the commis- sion to fix a rate of 10 cents a hundred pounds. claiming the rates have been heavily and injuriouslY advanced. A hearing at New orleans is asked for.
