Railroad Bill
Makes Slow Pro-
gress in Senate,

Washington, May 17.-After giving
he greater part of the day to the
question whether the government or
the Interstate Commerce Commission
shall appear as defendant in cases
growing out of orders of the Interstate
Commerce Commission under the terms
of the railroad BILL the Senate today
postponed action on the subject until
tomorrow. The postponement was or
| Tered upon an objection made by Sem
ator Cummins to the presentation of
| the subject in new form on the eve
of voting.
The discussion had been on an
amendment offered by Cummns. AS
the bill was reported the United States
was made the defendant in all cases
growing out of proceedings before the
commission. Cummins' amendment
proposes to substitute the commission
itself as defendant. Speeches in sup
port Of the amendment were made by
Cummins, Clapp, Brstow and Others
and the debate of the day was upon
this basis.
Towards the close of the session Smith
OF Michigan introduced as a substitute
for the Cummins amendment the House
provision bearing upon the same subject
which provides that the commission shall
be permitted to intervene in cases arising
from the proceedings before that body.
For the purpose of avoiding parliament
airy ENHANCEMENT Cummins practically
Withdrew his amendment so as to permit
the nrst vote to be taken on the sugges-
ton made by Smith. but made a vigorous
protest against the Smith amendment
ana the method of it's introduction. Smith
stated. however, that independent of any
conference with others he had been led
to the conclusion that the language of
the House bill went as far as legislation
couId be expected at this time to go.
Cummins insisted that the House pro-
vision was materially defective and his
plea against speedy action was allowed
to prevail.
Before adjourning the Senate adopted
an amendment proposed by both Clapp
and Hepburn. striking out the provision
giving the judges of the proposed court
of commerce $1,000 year each. additional
for expenses in Washington The atti-
tude of the Democrats is expected largely
to control the future course of the Sem

created a great deal of ill feeling and

gents held a meeting in Clapp's room,
