None Is Likely to
Pass.

The House Committee on Interstate
and Foreign Commerce has set March
as the date to begin hearings on all
bills now before II, proposing amend
uSents 10 the Interstate commerce laws.
a long list of these have been intro
dUced-bllIs TO compel the railroads 10
furnish enough cars to handle the bust
ness, bills to enforce. reciprocal demur-
rage in case of failure 10 move business
promptly, bills to prohibit railroads in
creasing rates without the consent, first
secured, of the Interstate Commission,
and many others Of the same sort
It is not expected there will be much
change in the law at this session, il,
indeed, any is permitted. The Senate
committee has decided to have hearings
on the Fulton bill TO provide that no
rate OF schedule of rates shall be in
creased without first securing the con-
sent after a hearing, OF the Interstate
Commission. Senator Dolliver is going
to introduce a measure 70 establish
Government control Of the capitalization
of interstate carriers.
That any Of these mea sures will be-
come law at this session is not seriously
this session has been that the minimum
Of legislation is 10 be. passed, while
the maximum OF bluff about doing
things for the public Is TO be INDUCED

There have never been a greater num-
Der of bills TO please labor, and ship

There is a limit TO the weight q man
