D0LL|VER AMENDMENT K|LLE

Washington, d. Cat the last mo-
ing upon the railroad bill today, the
senate took the important step of add
ing an amendment placing interstate
telegraph and telephone lines under
the supervision of the interstate COM
merce commission. This action was
followed by an effort to restore por-
ton of section II, affecting mergers,
which heretofore was voted out.
Both provisions were introduced so
suddenly and considered to important
that rather than vote without more
consideration than it was able to give,
the senate took an adjournment until
tomorrow The suggestion regarding
telegraph and telephone companies
was made by Senator Dixon of Mon
tana, but ultimately his amendment
was supplanted by one offered by
Senator LaFollette of Wisconsin.
Dixon Starts Delay.
It had been supposed that action on
the Dolliver provision regulating stock
and bond issues of railroads would be
followed by votes upon the physical
valuation amendment offered by Mr.
LaFollette, and the national incorpor-
alton amendment of Senator New

recognized to present his telegraph
amendment some surprise was given
1t covered nine full pages and much
objection to voting upon it without an
opportunity for examination was ex-
pressed Even Mr.. Dixon himself was
unable to state whether the provision
was an exact reproduction of the pres
ent law with the additions mentioned
and a number of senators protested
against putting it to a vote. Senator

should use his own talents to the best
of his abilities"
