No Preventives Provided.

In explaining his Views today Mr.. Lit
Teton said. in part:
The most pretentious bill presented
by my democratic colleagues is one as to
parts of which there has been much dis
cussion. The fundamental fault mani
fest throughout this bill is that II legis-
lates primarily and directly at the size OF
industrial units. 1t preserves the chief
fault of the Sherman law, which is the
policy of a belated attack after concern
has grown up instead OF providing any
confer upon any governmental agency the
power to see to it that concerns in re-
straint of trade do not grow up
1T distinctly treats the symptoms and
ignores the disease 1t does not estab-
lish any agency which. through the en-
forcement Of specific statutes. can insist
upon those initial safeguards without
which all effort to reach the wrong must
fall
Under it's provision overcapitalized
concerns with the power of holding COM
panies may without challenge enter and
continue In the field of interstate COM
merce. The real truth Is that the bill
Is simply a complicated rearrangement
of the rules of evidence and the burdens
of proof under existing law. without q
serious effort to meet and rightly solve
the great industrial problems which have
grown up since the existing law was
enacted. and even this Encouragement OF
the rules of evidence is contrary to every
notion of English and American juris-
prudence.
Two Restraints" Confuse.
The confusion which is perpetuated in
this bill between restraint of trade and
restraint Of competition will cause no end
of difficulty. 1t may be in given case
or in q number of cases. that the extern
sion Of trade will result only from the
limitation of competition. To say that
when 1t shall appear that any concern or
combination of concerns is in restraint
of trade, and that it controls more than
30 per cent of the value of the total guam
tity Of that trade sold to the United
States, or more than 80 per cent In value
Of the total quantity sold in that part Of
the United States to which such concern
extends In such case such concern will
be required at the suit Of the government
to prove that the restraint is reason
able Ia to multiply the difficulties"

LIMITED BY THE TREATY,
SAYS SENATOR PERCY
Holds That We Have No Ex-
elusive Privileges in the
Panama Canal.

II do not believe we should give free
tolls through the Panama canal to our
shipping, either coastwise or interna-
tional, announced Senator Percy of
Mississippi, in speech in the Senate
today.
He added that he did not believe the
Hay-Pauncefote treaty with Great Brit
ain gave the United States the right to
discriminate against foreign shipping in
the interest of American commerce.
Senator Percy said the building Of the
canal had been begun under the treaty
with Great Britain. The neutrality Of
the canal had been guaranteed by the
United States, he said. in return for the
surrendering by Great Britain Of Its pro-
test rights against its fertilization.
He declared the United States could not
claim. under the British treaty, the right
to give favors to it's own shipping. If
such a provision had been made part Of
the treaty. he said, it would have been
Instantly rejected by Great Britain.
1T has been said We cannot get fair
trial at The Hague court" said Senator
Percy. I'VE don't want fair court If
that is the contention we are going to
present. If We were to present to any
court the claim that we are entitled to
these. privileges under the treaty, We
could not escape the charge on the part
Of all nations that we were making a
disreputable attempt to evade our just
obligations.
Senator Chamberlain asked IL Senator
Percy thought the United States enjoyed
any privilege under the Hay-Pauncefote
treaty that 1t did not have to share with
the whole world.

GO BEFORE GRAND JURY.
Boston's Striking Trolleymen Pre-
sent Their Alleged Grievances.

BOSTON. July 23.-Having gained what
they look upon as a technical victory be-
fore the state board of Cancellation and
arbitration, the striking trolleymen of
the Boston Elevated Railway Company
today presented their alleged grievances
to the grand jury at the invitation Of Dis
trict Attorney Joseph C. Pelletier.
The district attorney also summoned be-
fore the grand jury the president Of the
elevated company. Gen. William A. Ban
croft. and two of the directors, James NJ.
Prendergast and James L. Richards. The
evidence was sought in connection with
the institution Of charges of coercion and
perjury made against some Of the road s
division superintendent.
In its report issued last night the state
board of Cancellation and arbitration held
that the strikers were justified in believ-
ing that the discharge of more than 200
of their fellows was due to the activity of
the men in connection with the forming
of q union. The division superintendent
in their testimony before the board de-
MED that the discharges were because of
union activity.
Mr.. Pelletier says that the grand jury
hearing was held under a statute that
prohibits the coercing of any employee
from joining a labor union. The investi-
cation is expected to continue for several
days.
