RESOLUTION OFFERED IN HOUSE BY LIMBAUGH, IF ADOPTED,
 WILL START PROBE.
Y0AKUM ISSUES STATEMENT
Railroad Head Says There Has Been No Misrepresentation Nor Con- ceaIment in the Management
 of Company's Affairs.

Washington, June 3.-A federal in- Vestigation of the condition of the St. Louis x San Francisco Railroad company will be made.
 Representative Hinebaugh, the Hi nois Progressive, has asked the house to direct the interstate commerce commission to make thorough in- vestigation of the affairs of the sys- tenn during the last year.
 The Hinebaugh resolution states that there must be something funda- mentally wrong with a system capi- talized at more than $20O,000,OO0 which was unable to meet a demand of little more than $2,000. .000. The commission is directed by the resolu- ton 10 sift the charges of misman- agement and stock watering that have been directed against the system, and any other charges that appear to be based upon tangible evidence.
 On the surface, it would appear that this line has been mismanaged or that the rates which it has been collecting are not high enough to justify it's existence" Hinebaugh said.
 Public Right to Facts.
 The public has right to know what the trouble is. If any investiga- tion should disclose the facts tending to prove that the property has been footed or mismanaged, those who are court.
 If it should be shown that the rates allowed by law are not high enough, then some way must be found to remedy that condition. The com mission has ample power and iuris diction to go into the matter. and I am anxious that congress should as sist i'll getting it started"
 If the Hinebaugh resolution is not passed by congress a similar one will be.
 The interstate commerce commits sion has not undertaken any sort of investigation on it's own account, but will immediately start one if con- gress so orders.
 The experts of the interstate com merce commission do not believe that the freight rate schedule enforced by the commission has had anything to do with the failure of the Frisco. Bad financing and private greed, it is thought brought the road to its pres ent status.
 Several Western congressman have been contemplating an investigation of the Yoakum methods. They would ascertain the facts behind the naming

Washington. June 4.-Champ Clark, .rooker of the house, has eXpresset the opinion that congress may not ad- ;orrn hefore October In a Demo ,rotic caucus leading members dis oussod the prospects of final enact mont of the tariff and currency bills, and the consensus of opinion fixed tho date about September 1.

 This means that the present period d uncertainty and indecision will continue all summer and we'll into he autumn. unless protests of stag mated commercial interests of the conntry force accelerated action. A fixed plan of legislative procedure has been laid down by Leader Underwood for the Democratic majority, to ap- point formally the various standing committees that have been selected by the party caucus.
 This plan puts a stop to all legisla- ton excepting tariff and currency during the present extra session. No committees are to be allowed to re-
 
 ects, But during the long summer they must get down to hard work. The idea is to save time of next win ter's regular session by permitting members to introduce all the bills they wish now These will be re tered to proper committees, which will digest them and prepare reports ready tor the house when it meets in

 It is already reported in Washing ton that the condition of the Frisco will be urged as reason for the ad- vanced rates that the Eastern roads have asked the interstate commerce commission for permission to estab- fish. In order to know just what con- sideration to give this argument, the commission will want to know of the inside manipulation that it is suspect ed wrecked the Frisco system.

Washington, June 4.-Senator Pen rose of Pennsylvania took the stand out of his turn before the senate ju- dietary subcommittee, which is inves- tigating the "insidious lobby alleged by President Wilson to be at work in Washington, and testified that he had been visited by 175 men since January l, who presented to him arguments on the tariff bill. The senator gave list of these men.
 Penrose also testified he was inter- ested in a sugar and land company at Garden City, Kan. but predicted that this company would go into the hands of receivers, whether there was a pro- tective tariff or free trade.

Underwood to Be in Charoe.

Then the house can get to work i'm mediately upon winter legislation that has been predigested in committee Fair notice is given to everybody that nothing excepting the tariff and cur. rency bills will be passed this sum- mer, but there is a fine opportunity to get at the top of next December's calendar by introducing subjects now
 Underwood is to take charge in person of the banking and currency legislation as well as the tariff. on the floor of the house. He has begun to study hard on the subject and will put 1t through In the same masterly manner that he passed the tariff bill The Democratic leader has no opin- ion to express as yet on the character of currency legislation, but he re. marked significantly to associates. We must not let any bad bill get through"
 The banking and currency commit tee will have as chairman Carter Glass of Lynchburg, Va. Two New York members are Thomas G. Patten of New York city, Democrat, and Ed mund Platt of Poughkeepsie. Repub- lican.
 No Party Lines on Currency.
 There Is divergence of opinion as well as lack of any opinion, and no one can predict what sort of a bill will be passed. Leader Underwood's plan is to have the committee ponder for weeks over various forms of cur rency bills. They will have one from the president, another from Chairman Glass, another from Representative Henry of Texas and dozen more from bankers and professors of eco- monies.
 Out of all of them something defi- mite will be evolved to give the coun- try a more elastic currency system.
 Democrats and Republicans will not divide on party lines over currency, as over tariff Many on both sides will take individual positions
 But even when the house passes tui Oiii NhNAN 10 iO oooui ohNC that the senate will do likewise be- fore adjourning. If tariff discussion lasts until September, as is possible, the senate would require month or two for solemn consideration of a subject so near to it's heart as bank ing and currency.
 Unless President Wilson, backed by an aroused public, demands and cracks the whip over congress, there is every prospect of long summer talk while the country cries for ac- tion on the tariff and currency

Yoakum Says Accounts Are Open.

Yoakum Says Accounts Are Open.
 New York, June 4.-Benjamin F. Yoakum of the Frisco gave out a state ment here in which be said that the accounts of the company were open to inspection and would stand the most critical investigation.
 There is nothing to be gained by newspaper controversies, Yoakum said There has already been much said on this subject through the press, not all based upon facts. There has been no misrepresentation nor con- cealment of matters by this company The last S3,000,000 of bonds. which have been the subject of so much pub licity, were sold with the full knowl- edge of all facts in connection with the companys affairs.
 Another thing in connection with this unfortunate controversy is that the contract of sale for these identi- cal bonds was signed on March 19, after several weeks of negotiations, while the public evidently thinks that they were disposed of almost simul- taneously with the appointment of re- ceivers.
 "The accounts of this company are open and subject to the most critical investigation, and all of them will be found correct in every sense of the word. As the facts become known the public will become more con- vinced that there was no deception practiced or statements issued by the company not in keeping with the true situation
 The only other development here in the Frisco tangle was much discus sion about the commissions paid by the Frisco to bankers for the sale of the bonds of the road. It is said that some of these commissions have been unusually large.
