WASHINGTON STOCKS

Capital Traction SIS Off One
half POint-General
List Soft.

There was just a fair business on the
Washington Stock Exchange, with no
particular activity in anything, and no
pressure to sell.
Washington Railway preferred sold at
SOS on regular call and a small lot al
G6is later on. Washington Gas sold at
IS. II would probably be impossible to
market large quantities Of the seeuri-
ties named at these figures. but so long
az there is no pressure the market Will
take a moderate supply without much
change. Capital Traction stock sold at
40.
IN the bond market Capital Traction
SIS declined one-half point from the 10Y
that has been so persistently maintained
for some weeks and months past, sales
being made at no. The per cent bonds
OF the Chesapeake and Potomac Tele-
phone Company sold at 1914.
From all appearances il will require
some important development or devel-
opments 10 wake up the local market.
A favorable decision in the Gas cases
would help, and an investment demand
is badly needed.

PRESIDENT TALKS
To RAILROAD MEN
ON SHERMAN LAW

The President today discussed with a
group OF operating railroad men his
views on the question OF modification
OF the Sherman law so as 10 minimiz.
the restrictions now placed upon rail
road pooling and traffic agreements. as
sociations for securing uniformity of
traffic regulations and rates. etc.
The President listened TO his callers.
end then referred them. for more de-
JAILED discussion Of the matter. to the
Interstate Commerce Commission. No
results are expected to come from The
conferences TIL after the commission
shall have had opportunity 10 consider
the matters and report on them 10 the
President.
Those who called on the President
were Q. R Gray, second vice president
OF the Frisco: L G. Rawn, second vice
president OF the Illinois Central: II. 7.
Nudge, second vice president of the
Rock Island; D. Willard, second vice
president OF the Burlington. ". A. Gar
rett, general manager OF the Seaboard
Air Line; c. E. Schah. New York Cen
trail; w. A. Gardner, Chicago North
western; G. II. A exert. Southern rail
w. Na-N - - WIFI DdAL4A4lOIe ana
Ohio.
It is understood that the conference
related to the economies and conve-
niences which would result from per
mission TO pool traffic and to agree.
without violation OF law, on rates and
regulations Of traffic. This aspect would
naturally fall TO operating men.
The Presidents attitude is said IN 10
one Of sympathy with the view thar
railroad competition, which the SHEER
man law aims TO enforce. is practicaIIy,
impossible, and that moreover c0n1neti
ton is practically made impossibla b-,
the Hepburn law. In short, that the
two laws aim in diamatricaliy opnosite
directions, and that the conflict OF mr.
pose cannot but increase the difficulties
and embaT1 aSsmentS OF railroad rDaDo-
gers, however earnestly thew might -
sire to conform to law, and at the saTEa
time complicate the problem OF the "
thOrities. At the same time the Presf
dent is understood to oppose most de-
Cidedly any surrender Of the Cyoy,asD
ments powers under the Sherman law
unless at the same time the Govern
ments power Of regulation is much in
creased.
To permit pooling. for example. excAnt
under a law which would give the IN
terstate Commission authority to revise
and IL desirable to veto any pooling ar
rangement would not be thought Of nv

BIG NAVY BOOSTED
At MEETING DAY

A conference over naval affairs, with
a hint Of the japanese peril IN the
background, was held at the White
House this morning between the Presi-
dent and Representative HobsOn of
Alabama and Cousins Of Iowa. Mr..
HObsOn is the chief boomer in the
House of the bigger navy: MI Cousins
is chairman OF the Foreign AnaIrs Com
mittee Of the House, and before he as
sumed charge of this important commit
tee was leading member of the Naval
Committee. Soon after Cousins and
Hobson left the Presidents Office, Rep
resentatives Hayes of California, who
had been urging Japanese exclusion,
left the White House.
There is nothing new in the situa-
tiOn,' said Mr.. HObsOn, We were mere
" diecusssing certain details with the
President"
Saturday night the President made a
speech at the GridlTOn Club dinner in
which he deprecated the tendency to-
ward agitation of the Japanese and
other delicate diplomatic subjects The
President has promised Mr.. HObson that
he will support his greater navy bill
which provides for the appropriation OF
$50, 900 year for building of new
battleships. The discussion at today
conference is supposed to have been de-
voted mainly to the provisions or the
bill and the ACCESSIBILITY Of writing in
certain amendments

LABOR LOSES FIGHT
IN SUPREME COURT

Labor lost q hard-fought battle today
when the Supreme Court OF the United
States decided that the section OF the
Erdman act, prohibiting railroads en-
gagged IN Interstate commerce from dis
eliminating against employees because OF
membership in labor organizations, is
unconstitutional.
The question came up in the case Of
William Adair, master mechanic of the
Louisville and Nashville railroad. who
was alleged to have threatened to dis
charge an engineer because he belonged
to labor organization.
As long as there is no contract; as
long as there is no limit on the term
Of service in an agreement between en-
pIoyer and employee, said Justice Har-
Ian in announcing the opinion of the
court. Congress could not make It a
crime for a railroad to do that which
the employe can do; that is. sever the
relation without giving any reason. II
Congress had such a right. he con
tinued, it could pass a law making 1t a
crime for a railroad 10 employ any
but union men. He argued that Con-
gresS cannot employ the power to regu-
late interstate commerce so as to vio-
late rights conferred by other sections
Of the Constitution.
Justice McKenna, in dissenting, said
the opinion Of the court proceeded along
very narrow lines.
