Lawyers of Senate Cannot Reach
Agreement on Measure.
The bill amending the employers liza
bility act which occupied the morning
hour Of the Senate on Wednesday, was
again under consideration yesterday
There was two hours discussion Of the
measure by the lawyers Of the Senate
without an agreement being reached. and
the bill was again made the special order
for to-day. Senator Hale discussed an
amendment which he offered. providing
that when an action survives, the fund
arising therefrom shall be distributed TO
the benehciaries in the order that they
are prescribed by State laws. Senator
Hale said his amendment would protect
the Jurisdiction Of the States in this re-
spect.
Senator Bailey said If the tendency to
invade the rights of States should not
cease. It would only be q matter Of time
when the Federal government would abb
solutely control the railroads OF this
country, regulating wages and exercising
cofnplete mastery over them.
The Washington herald., 1910-04-01

Senator Root made a notable contribu-
ton to the discussion of the bill TO amend
the interstate commerce act in the Senate
YESTERDAY. There was more interest
manifested on both side OF the chamber
IN the remarks Of the Senator from New
.Sork than has been shown at any time
heretofore in the debate.
Mr.. Root did not conclude his speech,
which he began on Wednesday, but he
intimated that he would be able to finish
before the close Of the session to-day.
The Senator devoted nearly all Of the
time yesterday to a discussion OF section
l. of the bill. which seeks to prevent
the acquisition by one common carrier
OF stock in a competing line.
Senator Root argued at length TO prove
that the section viii not repeal or mod
fly the Sherman antitrust law. In this
contention he takes sharp issue with
Senator Cummins and the insurgent Re-
publicans. who are opposing the bill.
Mr. Root declared that there was Moth
ing In the existing law which made the
acquisition of stock by one common car
rier in the property of another an Of
tense in itself.
Northern Securities Case.
He cited the decision in the Northern
Securities case to show that It was only
when such acquisition was one act in a
conspiracy to suppress competition and
restrain interstate commerce that it be-
came unlawful under the Sherman anti
trust law.
He had several interesting colleagues
with Senator Bailey, Senator Cummins,
and Senator Bacon. From Senator
Bailey he elected the opinion that il the
Northern Securities corporation had &C
uuired no more than forty-hYe shares of
stock in the competing line the Su-
preme Court would probably have held
that the holding company was not un-
lawful, because It was not a conspiracy
IN restraint Of trade
Mr.. Root defended the pending bill as a
step forward" in that it created a
new and substantive offense," supple
menting the antitrust law by asserting
control over acquisitions of stock in
competing lines.
The Senator declared that the only
serious question before the Senate was
whether the proposed legislation was con-
stitutionaI, He had some doubts on the
subject. but in view Of the decision II
the Northern Securities case. he believed
that the Supreme Court would hold thu
pending bill to be constitutional, becaus,
of Its close relation TO the enforcement
of the antitrust law"
Senator Root made no defense Of tha
feature of section z which permits tn,
acquisition by one carrier Of all the stool
Of a competing line. where the acquiring
carrier already possesses more than q
per cent OF the stock OF the company t
be acquired. Mr.. Root declared that the
paragraph had been misunderstood II
the Senate and was likely 10 be mis-
understood by the country. that it served
no useful purpose, and that he was will
ing It should go out Of the bill.

Of trade by a wholesaler who secured
substantial judgment against II, was de-
veloped yesterday In the hearings OF the
Senate committee that is investigating
the high cost Of living problem Sam
H Phillips, of Memphis. the president Of
the association. and Robert Moore. of the
same city. the secretary, were the wit
nesses heard.
The plan OF the organization, as ez-
plaIned by President Phillips. was. in eff
feet. to prepare a list Of wholesale
grocers 10 whon-and TO whom only
manufacturers should sell. and list OF
manufacturers from whom-and from
whom only-the wholesalers should buy.
I'VE organized TO foster and protect a
legitimate business" he said. I'VE en-
deavor 10 show manufacturers that they
should distribute their products only
through houses that do strictly a whole-
sale business.
Mr.. Phillips declared emphatically that
the association never resorted TO coercion
10 accomplish its ends. but relied solely
on moral suasion. He also said that IN
asmuch as the suits now pending in the
Supreme Court Of the United States
might result in a decree that the asso-
citation was an organization in restraint
OF trade and should be dissolved. 1t had
been his policy as president TO avoid the
things for which the association had
been attacked until the courts decision
had been handed down and they could
tell definitely Just what rights they had.
II was developed that through some sort
OF an agreement soap manufacturers
were TO pay to the association oae-fOurth
of cent per box on all soap shipped
into the territory covered by the associa-
ton, but President Phillips did not I'M
dertake to explain that, saying he would
leave that TO the secretary. There are
about 200 wholesale grocers in their ter
ritory, he said. and approximately halls
that number are members OF the organiza-
tion.
Mr.. Phillips stated, with emphasis. that
the association had never undertaken TO
control or fix prices in any manner. Man.
ufacturers had stipulated prices at which
their products should be sold. he said.
and the association had formerly coop
Grated with them 10 see that there should
be no cutting OF those prices. but that
practice had been discontinued.
