New Baggage Rules
Are Suspended

WASHINGTON, June 6-New regula-
tions of transportation of baggage, pro-
posed by nearly every railroad in the
United States which in effect would ad-
vance the rates on excess" We're sus-
pended by the Interstate Commerce com
mission today. The suspension becomes
effective July / and continues in force
for 120 days. pending investiga ton. The
new regulations not only sought to
amend the excess rates but to prohibit
the carriage of certain size pieces of
baggage.
The proposed regulations follow:
"On and after July I, for any piece Of
baggage teXcept immigrant baggage
checked at port of landing) the greatest
dimension Of which exceeds forty-five
inches, there will be an additional charge
for each additional inch equal to the
charge for ten pounds of excess weight
'On and after July 1. 1872 no piece of
baggage the greatest dimension Of which
exceeds seventy t70) inches, (excepting
immigrant baggage checked at port of
landing) will be transported in baggage
cars"
The commission believes that the fix
ing by the roads of the dimensions of
baggage will work an unnecessary hard
ship upon travellers.

MONEY INQUIRY GOES OYER
Committee Decides to Postpone Main
Hearing Until Fall.
DIFFICULT TO GEE DATA
In Meantime Testimony VIII he
Taken Along Certain Collateral
Lines--Laughlin is First
Witness.

NEW YORK, June 6.-Because of its
lack Of power to obtain necessary data
the so-called money trust investigation
in it's main scope will not be taken up
until fall. This announcement was made
by Chairman Pujo of the investigating
committee at the opening of the hearing
in New York today.
"In view of the insistence by some
financial institutions that the committee
is without power to enforce demands for
INFORMATION the committee has concluded
it is Tot advisable to take up the main
inquiry until all doubt as to the power has
been removed by the passage of the bill
to amend the banking law" said Mr..
Pujo. THE bill has passed the house and
is now before the finance committee Of
the senate.
1T will require months of painstaking
investigation and preparation, after the
proposed legislation has been enacted, to
secure the data that is essential to the
inquiry.
The required data must be gathered
pi lHdIlly from llle DouhS VI tHe COIpOTd-
tions concerned and must be segregated
before witnesses can be advantageousIy
examined
The committee is anxious to avoid
exposing legitimate transactions and this
can be accomplished only by the plan
that has been arranged.
VIII Wait Until Campaien Ends.
''The committee considers it inadvisable
in any event to conduct this important
and far reaching economic inquiry during
the heat and excitement of political
campaign and has not from the outset
contemplated any such course.
The intervening time will be devoted
to taking testimony on certain collateral
subjects. The relations of the clearing
house association and the stock exchange
to the financial system and to the increas-
ing concentration of money will be in
vestigated in the few sessions that are
TO be held before the summer vacation "
From the first witness, Prof J. Laur.
ence Laughlin, head of the national
banking, Samuel Untermyer, special coun-
sci for the committee. brought out the
statement that 70 contributions had been
made to the leagues fund by ]. p Morgan

Untermyer wanted to know why and
Prof Laughlin said merely that they had
