Washington. Feb. 1l,--An importan.
announcement was made today by the
interstate commerce commission re-
spectlng its attitude toward the re-
quest recently made by the operating
yice-presidents of the railroads of the
United States that the so-called nine
hour law, relating to the employment
of train dispatchers telegraph operat-
ors and towermen, be suspended by
the commission until such time as the
law could be amended to meet the de-
sires of all concerned. The commits
sion holds, in brief, that it has no au
thority to extend the time or suspend
the operation of the law, except in a
particular case or cases in which a
hearing has been held and good cause
shown for the extension asked. Fol-
lowing is the text of the commissions

COMMISSIONS ATTITUDE.

announcements
COMMISSIONS ATTITUDE.
Thousands Of letters and kilograms
received within the last few days in
dictate widespread misrepresentation as
to the power of the commission to 'ex
tend the law which goes into effect
March 4 next, limiting the hours Of
service of employees engaged in the
movement of trains upon interstate
railroads.
THE only authority in this record
is expressed in the law, as follows:
g." The interstate commerce commits
sion may after full hearing in a par
ticular case and for good cause shown
extend the period within which a COM
mon carrier shall comply with the pro-
visions of this proviso as to such case
The proviso referred to is that part
of section which provides that no
employe who handles train orders by
telegraph or telephone shall be requir-
ed or permitted to be on duty more
than nine hours out of the q at Of
fees continually operated night and
day, nor more than IS hours out of the
"a at offices operated only during the
day time except in case of emergency,
when four additional hours may be
required on not more than three days
in any week. No other provision of the
law can be extended or modified by the
commission.
Inc power to extend under this pro-
ylso Is extremely limited. This is evil
dent from the plain import of the Ian
Euase above quoted, from the context
10 which 1t relates and from the OBJ
vlous purpose of the entire enactment.

CATHOLIC CLERGY
 ROOTED IN LONDON
(continued from First Page,)


 The people began hocking toward the cathedral hours before the prot. cession started 2 They came from all directions, from the west end In auto mobiles and carriages; from the east end in busses; they poured across the river by all the bridges which con verge toward Westminster, and ex- cursion trains brought many from the provinces.
 After the procession had re-entered the cathedral. Cardinal vannutelli appeared on the high balcony In gor' geous robes and elevated the Host, while the thousands of Catholics out side the building reverently knelt, The last day of the congress opened with pontifcal mass In the cathedral, which was celebrated by the papal legate and at which all the cardinals, archbishops and bishops and many oth- CTS of the clergy assisted. The great edlfce was crowded, the audience fol- lowing with rapt attention the sermon of Cardinal Gibbons, who preached elo- quently.
 | Oll tltlltI tluc OI 1dTulHdl NuHlut telli were his chief chaplains and the guard of honor, composed of Catholic peers Following the. .legate came the members of the pontifcal mission. the cardinals in their order, two by two, each with his train-bearer and chap lain; the archbshops and other pre- lates. including the representatives of absent bishops, the whole procession being upwards of mile long and oc- cupying nearly an hour to cover the route.
 In the streets surrounding the cath edral the prelates passed through ave- nues of kneeling adherents of their faith, the curious and any who might have come to jeer being crowded out of this vicinity. At one or two points further away, however, the procession Ists bar practically to force a passage through the crowds who broke through the police lines. At one place, where several streets converge the crush was so great that the spectators broke ur the procession, but the police. station ed at this point in strong force. man. aged eventually to clear a narrow lane through which the papal legate ant the others passed in single file. The crush here was frightful for half ar hour and the police had to use heroic measures. Many women and not C few men tainted and those who were found wilfully pushing and jostlint were carried away in police wagons only to be released when placed wher, they could cause no further trouble.

JAPs' ROYAL WELCOME
Celebration to Be Fitting Climax to
 Globe-Trotting Fleets Fetes.

Toklo, Sept 1s.-The full program for the reception by the Japanese to the American fleet, which Is due here October IT, leaves very few minutes for the sleep while the vessels are in port. Even now 1t looks as If 1t would be impossible to get In one half of the courtesles the officials and people of Japan are asking to be allowed to pay the visitors. Official orders will not be promulgated for some days yet. but they will include decorations and regu- lations as to the treatment of the visl- tors. Already Yokohama has been d. rected that during the visit of the fleet lanterns bearing the flag of the United States shall be distributed and display ed from every house and shop night and day.
 Yokohama will have the opening and the closing of the series of functions. The others will be fin Tokio. It Is un- derstood that the American ambassa- dor will give dinner to the officers as well as reception which probably take tho form of garden party. Arrange ments are being made with the rail- roads to run excursions and special trains to al the nearby and most att tractive and historic points in Japan for the benefit of the sailors. sou- venirs of all sorts have been ordered. and In fact there is much to show the thorough genuineness of the reception and welcome. The newspapers are con- tinually writing editorials on tho good will existing between the men of both countries.
 The Japanese seem to take no notice whatsoever of tho innuendoes that there may be some overt act committed They laugh and ray that this is the work of the professional propagondist ana If ia not to be taken seriously,
