 casted today before the employers liability and workingmen's cOmpensa- tiOn commission by Gardiner Lathrop, who took a gloomy view of the pro- posed legislation. LathrOp. who is counsel for the Santa Fe, expressed grave doubt as to the probability of obtaining authority for the Interstate Commerce commission to make in creases in rates which, he said. will be necessary to meet the cost of the proposed insurance. Other railway attorneys gave the commission much advice relative to the character of the bill. Absolute unity of opinion among lawyers is lacking Alfred F.

COMMERCE COURT TO
 MAKE INVESTIGATION
Judges Want to Know Something About the Facts On Which
 Commission Based Order.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-The com merce court today granted an order restraining the interstate commerce commission from putting into effect rates in the Spokane case. until the court can review the decision on it's merits.
 The order made June 22 was to have become effective next Wednes- day. The cases involve not only the back hauT' freight rates from Spo- kane and other intermountain points to Pacific coast terminals. but also the application of the long and short haul clause of the law. The order of the commission, particularly in the Reno cases. laid down principles to be followed by the commission. The effect of the commissions order was to reduce freight rates from the At lantic seaboard to inter- Rocky noun tain destinations. In the reduction of transcontinental rates the commission recognized the effect of water com petition on the Pacific coast, but held substantially that rates from the east to cities like Spokane and Reno should be lower than existing rates. The transcontinental railways ap- pealed to the commerce court, main taining that the ruling was practi- Caly confiscatory. The court issued an order late today granting a pre- liminary injunction, suspending the operation of the order issued by the commission. The courts finding leaves the transcontinental freight structure as it is at present. In the opinion of members of the interstate commerce commission. the most important fea- ture of the courts injunction is the courts questioning of the commits sion's action regarding the long and short haul clause. The court inti- mated it proposed to make an inves- tigation of the facts on which the commissions ruling is based.
