Democrats and Cost Of Living.

have a duck fit. Some there are who
seriously contemplate the enactment OF
a statute making ii a penal offence TO re-
fer. in conversation or in print, to the
high prices commanded by the necessarles
Of life. This situation grows out of the
consideration of the tariff on agricultural
products. Certain Democratic editors
with a perfectly reckless disregard OF pos
sible manslaughter. are demanding tha'
all duty be taken off such necessaries OF
life as meats. cereals, vegetables ana even
sugar Certain others are insisting thdI
the quasi-victory Of the Democracy hs'

'MORCAN'S SWAY ON SEA
Franklin Tells of international
Mercantile Marine.
ADMITS RATE AGREEMENTS
Impossible to Maintain Efficient
Transatlantic Service
Without Them.
From The Tribune Bureau.

Washington. Jan. 23.-While the Prje
committee pried further into the banking
affairs OF j. p. Morgan & Co, the
shipping trust investigating committee
learned to-day that the influence OF the
master financier extended across the seas
and that he exercised dominating IN
fuence in a number of steamship lines.
Nice-President p A. s. Franklin OF the
International Mercantile Marine Com
pany. known as a Morgan concern, ac-
knowledged to the house investigators
that the company operated steamships Ell
gagged in trade in all parts OF the world
and that the International controlled the
White Star. the Red Star. the Leylsnd.
the Dominion, the American, the Atlantic
Transport and the National lines
Mr.. Franklin corroborated the testimony
of other witnesses that the lines in this
trade operated under rate agreements,
and in some instances pooling arrange
ments. and put into the record a copy OF
the agreement entered into by most OF
the lines controlled by his corporation.
Declaring that il would be imposs bic
10 maintain efficient transatlantic service
without agreements, Mr.. Franklin said
the only way Congress could improve the
situation would be 10 require copies oil
the agreements to be filed and held open
TO the public. Any attempt to prescribe
fixed rates. he insisted. would be ruinou..
on account of tramp competition with
the regular lines. and because such
practice would give foreigners an advan-
tage over the American merchant and
producer. Mr.. Franklin denied that
steamships participating in the confer
ences refused TO advertise in newspapers
and periodicals which were unfayorabe
TO the alleged shipping trust.
Mr.. Franklin said that practically all
lines TO Europe from American ports
from Portland TO Galveston operated
under the westbound North Atlantic con
ference. which agreed on minimum rates
and conditions OF service. The North
Continental conference, Mr.. Franklin told
the committee. controls the westbound
rates Of lines between the United States
and Hamburg. Bremen Antwerp, Rot
terdam and Amsterdam.
we have often heard" said Mr.. Frank
lin, that the eastbound as we'll as the
westbOund transatlantic freight rates
were controlled abroad AS matter OF
fact. the eastbound rates on freight OUT
OF American ports are controlled hefe.
They are fixed for specific ports: the lines
for each port get together and agree upon
minimum rates TO be charged on certs IN
commodities for sixty days. The agree
ment must be unanimous. and II the rep
resentative of one line refuses TO sgrre
with the rest on rate he is out OF tn
conference as far az that particular com
modify is concerned
