Agreement on Rates.
The subject Of agreements between
carriers with respect to rates has been
often discussed In congress. Pooling
arrangements and agreements were
condemned by the general sentiment
of the people, and under the Sherman
antitrust law any agreement between
carriers operating in restraint of inter-
state or international trade or COM
merce would be unlawful. l see no
reason why agreements between car

CALLS CLAWS MEGALOMANIAC
Attorney General Wioksrsham Rejects
Charges Against BaIlinger.

Washington. Jan. 7.-Attorney Gen
eral Wickersham has written this let
ter to President Taft concerning the
Ehafges against Secretary Ballinger:
"Glayis' action appears to have been
founded upon wholly exaggerated
gense of his own Importance and de-
sire for personal advancement rather
than on any genuine desire to protect
the interests OF the government, and
this species of megalomania has Gnally
led him to submit to you charges Of
improper motives and conduct against
his official superiors which my opin-
Ion are unjust and unfounded.
"The insinuations or charges of i'm
proper action on the part of Secretary
Ballinger, Assistant Secretary Pierce,
Commissioner Dennet or Chief Of Field
Division Schwartz are in my opinion
entirely disproyed."
According to the Century Dictionary.
megalomania is "a form of insane de-
lusion, the subjects Of which imagine
!. themselves TO he very great, exalted
or powerful personages; the delusion
Of grandeur"

PclassiHcatlons Of freight and the rates,
fares and charges for transportation of
passengers and freight which they may
agree to establish should not be per-
mitted, provided copies of stich agree
ments be promptly fled with the COM
mission, but subject to all the pro
visions Of the Interstate commerce act
and subject to the right of any parties
to such agreement to cancel 1t as to
all or any of the agreed rates, fares,
charges or classifications by thirty
days notice in writing to the other
parties and to the commission.
Much complaint is made by shippers
over the state of the law under which
they are held bound to know the legal
rate applicable to any proposed ship
ment without, as matter Of fact,
ascertaining such rate. | think that
the law should provide that carrier,
upon written request by an intending
shipper, should quote in writing the
rate or charge applicable to the pro-
posed shipment under any schedules
or tariffs to which such carrier is a
party and that if the party making
such request shall suffer damage In
consequence of either refusal or omis-
sion to quote the proper rate or in con-
sequence Of a misstatement of the rate
the carrier shall be liable to a penalty
In some reasonable amount, say $3.50,
to accrue to the United States and to
be recovered in a civil action brought
by the appropriate district attorney.
Under the existing law the commits
sion can act only with respect to an
alleged excessive rate or unduly dis
cr1minatory practice by a carrier on a
complaint made by some individual
affected thereby. l see no reason why
the commission should not be author
lied to act on its own initiative as
we'll as upon the complaint of an
individual and also that the COM
mission shall be fully empowered be-
yond any question to pass upon the
classifications of commodities for pur-
poses Of fixing rates, in like manner
as 1t may now do with respect to the
maximum rate applicable to any trans
portation.

professors of Harvard at Conant hall

many cases hitherto unknown to

again and again they called on him
to explain anew some of his proposi-

as readily as the lecture, and on no
