BOARD OF TRADE
 CLIPPING BUREAU
Press Extracts Arranged for Con
 venient Reference by Visitors.

One of the new features of the board of trade that has been devised by Sec retary Welch is a clipping bureau for the use of the public as well as him. self. Everybody who has a properly organized office of that kind or in fact most any kind, keeps clippings and scrap books to some extent. but MT. Welchs idea is different.
 Instead of filling up scrap books or pasting clippings into large volumes until they finally become too numer- ous to be valuable for reference. he keeps them so they may be at frequent intervals resorted, the worthless thrown away and the new substituted. His method is to take clippings from the local and other papers that may come to him. on all current and time ly events. pasting each on a big sheet of white paper. which shows also the paper clipped from and the date These he keeps segregated in files under each important head as for instance. rail- roads, Buckeye valley, canals. board of trade. or whatever he considers worth while
 Later he may secure a clipping that covers the ground that nalt dozen former clippings try to. in which event he throws away the useless sheets and retains only what he wants as they are all in loose leaf files.
 The purpose of the filings is partly for MT. Welch's own reference in keep ing up with current events, but it's use by the public will also be very con venient. For instance if a stranger visits the board and inquiries concern ing the railroad situation in Phoenix as to present and prospective lines, MT. Welch can merely hand over his rail- road file and in it, arranged in the order of dates, will be found all the recently published stories in the local press as to the present and prospect i've lines, which the visitor may peruse at his pleasure.

FAVORABLE 10 STATES
Removes From Federal Judges Power to Inter fere With Operation of State Laws Democrats Pleased

Washington. June 2-But for the fact that Senator Overman If North Carolina succeeded in having the sen ate incorporate in the railroad bill provision regulating injunction pro ceedings affecting state laws, the sen ate probably would have voted on the railroad bill today. The acceptance of that provision had the effect of in clining some democratic senators more favorably to the bill and of causing the democratic side of the chamber to re- quest opportunity for consultation be- fore reaching the voting stage on final passage.
 Accordingly. the vote was postponed to permit a democratic conference to be held at II o'clock tomorrow. After this agreement was reached, Senators Elkins and Hale made an effort to get the senate to agree to vote on the bill before adjournment tomorrow, but without success.
 The bill was before the senate dur ing the entire day and a large num- Der of amendments were presented and disposed of. Just before adjournment
 
 proper time he would ask the senate to substitute the senate bill for the house bill. He succeeded in having adopted an amendment postponing for sixty days after its passage the time when the proposed law shall go into effect
 The Overman provision covers subject broader than transportation. It provides that no interlocutory injunc- ton suspending or restraining the exc cution of any state statute by restrain ing the action of any state officer in it's enforcement shall be issued by any federal judge upon the ground of un- constitutionality unless the appli- cation shall be presented to Q justice of the supreme court, or to a circuit judge and shall be heard by three judges
 The provision heretofore adopted placing interstate telegraph and tele- phone lines under the control of the interstate commerce commission was enlarged in compliance with a sugges- ton by Senator LaFollette. who pre- sented the original amendment As it now stands it provides that the tele- graphy and telephone charges shall be just and reasonable and authorizes the commission tO determine when they are rates on press dispatches are au- thorized. Telegraph passes are pro hibited to all persons
