WILL WITHDRAW
ADVANCED RATES
Conference Between President Taft
And Railroad Men Results in an
to Hold Up Advance.

Washington, June Tan agreement
between the government and the re-
Gently enjoined railroads Of the West.
.ern Trunk Line association was reach
Cd at the White House conference,
which lasted more than four hours
Monday afternoon.
The railroads represented agreed to
withdraw all rate increases filed to
be effective on or after June and
agreed to file no more increases until
the bill in congress, which gives the
interstate commerce commission pow.
er to investigate and suspend all in
creases not justified, becomes a law
and goes into effect.
President Taft thereupon stated that
the administration purpose in bring
ing the injunction suit had been ac-
complished and that the suit would be
discontinued. The discontlnuance Will
not be entered, however, until after
the new railroad law is signed.
The belief was expressed tonight
chat all other railroads In the country,
which have filed increased rates or
have had such a-plan under considera-
tion, win abide by the agreement
reached today with the twenty-four
railroads named as defendants in the
Hannibal suit.
There will be conference at the
White House today in which Presi-
dent Brown, of the New York Central
railroad; President McCrea, OF the
Pennsylvania, and other officials rep
resenting the railroads in the eastern
and central territory will participate.
That they will acquiesce in President
Taft's proposition and will hold up
proposed increases until after the
new law becomes effective was prao-
tically taken for granted here last
night.
The railroads presidents In confer
ence with President Taft put up a
lengthy argument. They claimed that
they had been misrepresented as 70
there having been anything clandes-
tine about agreeing upon or filing the
new rates. They cailmed that they
had sent written notices to shippers
and even had the receipts Of certain
ahlppers who denied ever having re-
ceived such notices, Finally they de-
elared that increased rates had been
filed in the same manner as the in
terstate commerce commission had ap-
proved for the past ten years.
The railroad presidents told Presi-
dent Taft, incidentally. that they had
been advised by their counsel that
he was willing to take the chance as
to that and he thought the best way
out for the railroads was for them to
Withdraw their increases, Then that
settlement was reached.

Governor Haskell asked Mr.. West
to suggest plan to give warrants.
The attorney general stated In his let
ter that the plan of the French
republic, 60 place the warrants In
small denominations with the common
people, appealed to him. He declared
some such scheme would be neces-
sary because It was apparent that the
United States government would have
to resort to a bond issue soon, and the
market for bonds Is now very weak.
Bond men in Chicago, said the at
torney general, told him that the mar
ket for "municipals" was practically
non-exlstent: that bond buying had
stopped. and nobody knows why
He declared It was necessary to re-
sort to the tactics Of France in rails
ing the enormous war indemnity for
the German empire. lie cited the ex-
perlence Of Galveston, which placed
the amount necessary to build the sea
wall practically and solely IN the
hands Of Galveston people making
the paper denominations as low az
$50.
1T ID not possible. says Mr. West
in bis letter, TO issue warrants for
less than $500 each, but | suggest that
we do something like this: That You
select two persons OF sufficient ac-
quaIneanee. probity and reputation so
that their names shall be an absO-
lutte guarantee Of the soundness and
thoroughness and honesty Of the prop.
odtion, and advertise extensively
through the state that these persons
will give certificates Of ownership in
public warrants"
The attorney general proposes that
the certificates be sold IN denomina-
tions as low as S. and that the war
rants be turned over to the "trustesa
as soon as they have collected the face
value. When the warrants become
payable. the certificates VIII be re-
deemed thereby solving the difficulty
presented by the law, which makes
$50 the minimum amount for which q
warrant Of the public building series
may be drawn
It was understood a private sale Of
the warrant issue had been arranged
to the Commercial Trust Company Of
Kansas city but the warrants are
apparently sHll IN the state treas
