HIS ADDRESS IS SENSATIONAL
ANNOUNCEMENT CAME AS SUR
PRISE TO HIS AUDITORS. MIN
NEsoTA STATE BAR
OUTLINES DRAFT OF LAW
PROPOSES A COMMISSION THAT
WILL HAVE SUPERVISION TO
FIX PRICES, ETC.

Duluth, Mimi, July 19.LAttorney
General Wickersham, speaking before
the Minnesota State Bar association,
today took an advanced stand on fed
eral regulation of corporations. He
said a government commission to
regulate great industrial organizations
| in the same way that the Interstate
Commerce Commission regulates the
railways was desirable and might be
necessary.
Mr.. Wickersham's speech was little
short of sensational in many of its
features. He declared that it was
matter of serious consideration wheth-
er it would be practicable to give to
the proposed Interstate Corporation
Commission the power to fix prices.
Many of Mr.. Wickersham's declara-
tions were the most startling he has
made since his entrance into official
life. There was nothing in the speech,
however, to indicate how far the at
torney general reflected the views OF
President Taft. On several occasions
in the last year he has been regarded
as the spokesman for the administra-
tion.
THAT some further regulation over
carrying on commerce
among the states may be necessary"
he said, "is coming to be matter of
current comment. 1t has been open
ly advocated quite recently by repre-
sentatives of some of the largest COM
binations of capital, probably as
means of salvation, to operate under
government supervision great organ
izations whose continued existence Is
threatened by the recent interpreta-
ton of the Sherman act, the disinte-
grafton of which would be necessarily
attended with much loss. To such 1t
is a case of any port in ship
wreck better continued cooperative
life, even under powerful master,
than disintegrated properties and seq
regated activities without constant
governmental supervision.
whether a federal industrial COM
mission should have power to regu-
late prices is matter of serious con-
sideration. The interstate commerce
law prescribes that prices for trans
portation by rail or wire or pipe line
shall be reasonable, and that no un-
inst discrimination she'll be made be-
+waen individuals or localities similar
" situated. A similar rule might be
declared with respect to the prices OF
commodities, the subject OF inter-
state commerce. The fact seems to
he that the prices of standard articles
sold in the United States for several
vears have not been fixed at all by
the operation of the laws OF supply
and demand or Of unrestrained compe-
t,tion. but by associations OF produc-
ers without the participation Of the
consumer or the general public, that
is. without those who have to pay tne
bill having any voice in fixing the
nrice. In this view, it is certainly not
unreasonable that the purchasing
public should desire to have some
mart in the price it is to pay IN hke
manner as has been recognized to be
lust with respect to cost of transpor-
tation."
Mr. Wickersham implied that a
federal incorporation act, while !.
might offer some difficulties would
help to lay the axe at the root OF tne
trust evil

WHEN Tommy Murphy ana X. o.
w Brown step n the ring OF the
Whirlwind A. c., over at the
Clermont Avenue Rink, in Brooklyn,
tonight they will start a battle,
scheduled to go ten rounds, which
seems certain to end sooner with a
knockout, which will prove one Of the
most important lightweight encounters
in the country. Murphy once all but
had the lightweight championship in
his grasp, and but for a long attack
of malaria might have been the lucky
man to catch Battling Nelson fading
away and ripo picking for a clever
scrapper.
Since then Murphy has come back
in fine style, as his bout with the
heavier Mcfarland showed, and he Is
after the title again. Brown, on the
other hand, has twice beaten Cham
pion Wolgast In short fights, and has
a pretty good claim on first honors
himself. If he beats Murphy tonight
he will be matched almost imme-
diately with Wolgast in a long-dis-
lance battle In the West.
So II is an easy matter to figure out
the Importance of the bout to the
lightweight division. Murphy showed
in his bout with Mcfarland that he
could hold his own with any legitimate
lightweight in the country, and since

president of the American League,
scored at yesterdays trial OF John NJ.
Wards $780, 900 suit for Islander against
him, which is being tried before Judge
Hand In the Federal Court. The depo-
sition of j. w. Lardner, who wrote the
interview with Johnson, in which Ward
was assailed, had been obtained by
Wards attorneys. but Judge Hand re-
fused to permit its Introduction.
1t is alleged that the enmity between
Ward and Johnson arose over the
Davis affair, and it was shown yester-
day that Davis was given S., 800 a year
and guaranteed legal immunity when
he quit the American League team in
1908 and Joined the Giants, OF which
Ward was then captain.

MURPHY EXPECTS TO ADVANCE AT The
EXPENSE OF X. 0. BROWN TONIGHT

that night he has improved wonder
fully, as some hundred or more fight
fans who %journeyed down to his train
ing camp at Sheepshead Bay yester-
day, where they saw him work three
hours, will testify. Tommy looks and
acts like his old self, and he is going
to give Brown the hottest time of his
life tonight, without doubt. The boys
have each decided upon a plan of
fighting which means a slam-bang af-
fair from the start, and the fireworks
seem sure TO come before the tenth
round. They will weigh In at 1888 pounds
ringside, and each is down to that
weight nov
The meeting is in the nature or
a return engagement for Murphy,
who claims that he was in poor
condition on the occasion of his
previous session with Brown and could
not do himself justice. 1t was Muir
phys inability to hold his own then
that pushed Brown into the spotlight
and enabled the latter TO secure two
matches with Wolgast. Murphy's VIC
tories over Owen Moran in California
and Pal Moore in this city are the d.
rect causes for making another match.
II Brown can outpoint Murphy de-
cisively tonight-and his admirers
think he can-he will be a heavy fla
vorite In his match with Matt Wells,
the English champion. to be decided
here about June 1. II he can then
defeat Wells. Brown will be in a posi-
ton to force wolgast into a twenty

championship OF the world,

M Dl8 III GG-ASdIi lldANh az
that will be the feature of the
card at the Velodrome Sunday
looks like a bear of a race. Manager
John NJ. Chapman showed his class as
a matchmaker when he picked Frank
Kramer and Willie Fem, Eddie Root
and Joe Fogler Inc Floyd MacFarland
and Jackie Clarke to battle as teams in
a race of this kind.
1t would be impossible to pick three
more evenly matched teams. Kramer
is riding faster than any of the other
riders in the match, but as Fem is the
poorest of the bunch, Kramer's chances
are on a par with Fogler and Clarke,
who will do the finishing for their re-
s~pective teams.
On form. Fogler and Root are better
than Clarke and mcfarland, but all
Macs great ability as a team rider
equalizes the chances of the MacFar-
Land. Clarke combination.
While it is difficult to pick q team
that has even a shade on the others in
this match. the Fogler-Root pair appear
to have a slight advantage. Fogler Is
riding almost as fast as Kramer and
Root is the best man in the game at
DulllIh. ILhdAt . lil1O butG W l1AAb
Joe in front on the bell lap, and from
this advantageous position a lap from
nome Fogler will take n lot of beating.
If Kraerner gets Fogler's wheel and
Joe goes the last lap in front, the cham
pion Is liable to nip the big fellow at
the tape. 1t is hard to figure just what
MaoFarland will do in this race. The
cid FOX" has always got something
new up his sleeve and can be depended
upon to pull something entirely new In
the race Sunday.
"Mac'' has always favored cam work
and win try to demonstrate in this race
that teamwork is the pretty part OF
bike racing. MacFarland has always
relied 0 on his head than his legs in
a race. ald bis generalship, used in
conjunction with only a fair amount of
speed, has won hundreds Of races.
The Californian was the only rider
who attempted to persuade the promo
tiers and National Cycling Association
officials to allow team work again this
year. Mac" tried to show them where
they were wrong, but his arguments
we're Of no avail.
Besides the team race Sundays care
contains a two-mile open professional
event, in which oil .the pros viii start.
q one-rnile handicap pro and a three
mile open and a half-mile handicap

The team race will be run in heats,
and it will be necessary for a team TO
win two heats to get the race. 1t may
require four heats to reach q conclusion
and it nay be won in two straight.
