CLAY PRACTICALLY
WINS HIS FIGHT ON
TAFT RAILWAY BILL
1t Is Almost Certain That the
Senator's Amendment to
Eliminate Sections 7 and IL
Will Prevail
BY RALPH SMITH

WASHINGTON, May at is practical
~ certain that senator Clay's amendment
to eliminate sections and II from the
administration railroad bill will prevail in
the senate. The chances are better than
even that this will have been accom-
plished before the senate adjourns to-
day
Section authorizes traffic agreements
between railroads and section IL legalizes
mergers i'm cases where the road has as
much as 50 per cent of the stock of an
other road.
The sections are the most Objectionable
features of the administration bill. and
their elimination means that President
Taft. the administration and the regular
Republicans of the senate have been
forced to yield their most treasured de-
sire in the shape of legislation.
With these sections eliminated, prac-
tically all that is left of the bill Will
be the provision establishing an inter-
state commerce court, the section making
il obligatory on railroads to quote rates
correctly to shippers. that giving the in
terstate commerce commission power to
initiate Investigations on its own COM
plants, and the section providing for a
60-day suspension of rates pending an
investigation by the commission into their
reasonableness.
Senator Clay's leadership in the fight
against the. Objectionable provisions OF
the bill was recognized generally today
by regular Republicans and insurgents
alike. His amendments have been pend
ing for some time and as the opposition
to sections and l Increased Senator
Clay's amendments gathered strength. He
has constantly pressed their adoption, and
the encouragement and promises of sup
port he has received made it practical
ly certain that they will be adopted.
