Democratic leaders In the two houses
OF Congress apparently have agreed
upon an ambitious plan of legislative

In the meantime, Senate leaders are
announcing that antitrust legislation
and further important amendments to
the railroad laws arc to be among the

week Senator Simmons, in charge Of
the tariff bill in the Senate, has headed
off attempts to put trust or railroad
rate amendments on the BILL by the
announcement that these subjects
would receive prompt and effective con-
sideration when the winter session be-
gins.

Wall Street domination was denounced
to-day by cx-United States Senator
Morgan q. Bulkeley as the cause OF the
present difficulties Of New York New
Haven and Hartford. AS president Of
the Aetna Insurance Company, Of Hart
ford. which has large holdings in the
New Haven system, he is marshaling
opposition to the plans for floating the
proposed issue of s67,522. 900 debcnture
bonds.
After accusing the financial interests
Of using their own sweet will on the
railroad he presented this significant
proposition:
1T is n pertinent question TO ask
what officers and directors Of the New
Haven have become interested in the
syndicate which is to float the proposed
issue Of ss7.522.ooo debentures.
The Proposition.
Look a. the propositions: here Is an
issue Of securities, gilt-edgcd one
of the company ought to have first
claim. They have offered it to the
stockholders; but before waiting to
see how much of it will be subscribed
for by the stockholders, a contract is
entered into with J. Z. Morgan & Co.
by which syndicate is formed to take
over the entire issue on IL per cent
commission at IS, without waiting to
see what amount the stockholders and
the general public will subscribe for.
AS n matter of fact, know that the
public are jumping over themselves
right now TO get them at LOG. l know
personally, moreover. that in Hartford
alone stockholders and the general
i.ublc have signihed desire TO take
$4,000. 900 OF the issue, and If that pro-
portion of the issue can he disposed OF
in a small city like Hartford. does any
enc imagine there would be any diff
Guilty In disposing of the entire issue
without the assistance of syndicate?
Indeed, there is n very lively pros
pcct that the entire issue will bc sub
scribed for outside OF the syndicate.
In which connection. mark this:
whether the syndicate takes the issue
not. II every dollar of the issue is
subscribed for from outside sources.
the Morgan bargain still holds. and
the Morgan syndicate will get its COM
mission on a sale at IS. simply for n
standing by. II doesn't seem to me
that any comment is necessary.
II want TO say thfs. howcver: II
seems TO me the company has no right
to make n contract of this character
