accepting the Senate amendments to the
railroad bill without conference.
Representatives of several southern
states declared the Senate amendment
would effectually restore to the railroads
the power to grant rebates.
The Standard Oil fine of s29, 10000 was
imposed as the result of a misQuoted
rate said Mr.. Underwood of Alabama.
IF this section was to become a law
the railroads might misquote rate to
shipper and pay to him as damages any
thing they wished The only penalty they
could incur under the circumstances
would be fine of $3.50 and the payments
In damages might amount to millions.
The shipper, of course, would not have to
bring actual suit as the railroad could
confess the damages and pay the ship

ut would not matter whether 1t was
called damages or rebates" continued the
Alabama man, the effect would be the
same"
Representative Sims of Tennessee of the
committee on interstate and foreign COM
nnerce, a democrat, said thar m his opin-
lon the Senate committee would restore
to the railroads the privilege of rebating.

JOKER IN RAILROAD BILL MAY
ALLOW PRACTICE OF REBATING


Washington, June 6-The fear of a
Joker In the railroad bill to permit of re-
batting came up in the Senate today. It
was in the form of five-line provision to
that section existing in the present law
which prescribes a penalty of $3.50 for
failure to quote rate to q shipper on
request or for misquoting rate.
The proviso, which is said to nullify the
law prohibiting rebates, was presented
by Senator Shively, democrat and is
as follows in part:
Provided, however. that notwithstand-
ing anything in this section contained
any person or company suffering in the
increase in violation of any of the pro-
visions of this section, shall have the
right to recover such damages by suit
against the carrier in any court of COM
petent jurisdiction
The theory Of the democratic members
of the House who pointed out the fea-
ture Of the bill was that 1t would open
the way for railroads to give rebates
urder the guise OF paying damages to a
shipper. Lawyers of the Senate, both
republican and democratic, ridiculed the
suggestion and said 1t was probably ad-
vanced to cast doubt upon the wisdom Of
