TRUST BILL
MAY BE PASSED TO-DAY
Senate Adopts an Important
Amendment Offered by
Mr.. Reed.

WASHINGTON. Sept I - Another day
was given to the consideration OF the
Clayton antitrust bill by the Senate to-
day without reaching a conclusion. But
a majority OF the amendments were dis
posed OF ard the prospect for vote on
the passage OF the bill before adjournment
tomorrow Ia exceedingly bright.
The Senate adopted only one important
amendment to-day. That was proposed
by Senator hed and was accepted with
out n division. II was as follows:
That whenever corporation shall
acquire or consolidate the ownership
or control of the plants. franchises
or property OF other corporations,
copartnerships or individuals so that
II shall be adjudged TO he monopoly
or combination In restraint OF trade,
the court rendering such Judgment
shall decree It's dissolution and shall
to that end appoint receivers to
wind up it's affairs and shall
cause all OF the assets to be sold in
such manner and to such persons as
will In the opinion OF the court re-
store competition as fully and COM
ple;e,y as II was before said corpora
ton or combination began TO be
formed. The court shall reserve In
It's decree Jurisdiction over said as
sets so sold for sufficient time TO
satisfy the court that full and FREQ
competition Is restored and assured.
There was close vote on an amend
ment offered by Senator Poindexter OF
Washington which proposed to amend the
commodities clause Of the Hepburn rail-
way act to prevent common carrier
from owning any interest In a mine. The
commodities clause prevents the carry.
ing In interstate commerce by common
carrier OF the products OF plant or mine
which II owns.
Mr. Poindexter would have gone further
and prevented ownership. Mr.. Williams
suggested that the amendment would be
strengthened II II merely prohibited
ownership OF mines on the line OF III,
company's transportation route Thi,
proposed modification did not appeal &c
Mr. Poindexter. His amendment was LOS
by vote OF 81 to 90.

WAsHINGToN. Sept. 1.-The Importance
oc Gen Carranza's order closing the port
Of Vera Cruz was mlnimized In official cir
clcs here to-day. but behind this show OF
confidence In the frst chief It was appar-
ent that the Administration officials were
highly dlspleased at the course Carranza
has pursued.
Thr Importance of Carranzas latest
order lies chiefly in the attitude OF mind
that Il represents rather than in the
actual effect OF the shutting on OF traffic
through Vera Cruz. 1t is apparent tnat
Carranza Is still intent upon padding his
own canoe in Mexico. regardless or the
wishes of the United states.
Furthermore II indicates the opposition
which he has always shown to the pres
ence OF American troops on Mexican soil
and the fear here Is that his next move
will be a request for the withdrawal or
the United States forces from Vera cruz
Carranza's order is interpreted by the
War Department as applying only 20
shipping entering the port of Vera Cruz
from other coastwise ports, that is' coast
wise shipping.
Brig Gen. Funston reported on August
25 that Carranza's order might interfere
with the food supply in Vera Cruz but
the fact that he has not since seen NJ 10
make a supplementary report or the sub
ject and a week has elapsed since his
first notification TO the Department, war
Department officials believe that no In
convenience is being suffered.
At present tho American military au-
thorities at Vera Cruz are collecting the
3 customs AT the port OF Vera Cruz and
holding that fund intact for later dis
burscment after an agreement Is reached
with II newly elected Mexican Govern
ment.
War Department officials denied tina,
! the exact amount OF the fund IL known
There have been disbursements to defray
| the customs offices expenses from this
fund At one tlme early in the occnpa-
| ton, the receipts amounted to about
| $50 900 a month. II IL assumed that the
| fund Is not much in excess OF 100000.
| The continued presence OF powerful
| American naval force In Mexican waters
| and the presence OF Gen. Funston's little
army in Vera Cruz for some time 10 come
are indicated in the attitude OF both Tho

during the day came from the store

being undersold by strangers who were
not Obliged to pay rent charges on city

Although the prices varied In the dis-

the cost of everything offered for sale was
lower than the prices eXacted for cor

foodstuffs In ueighboring stores.
Not as many farmers took advantage
Of the opportunity to sell their products

desired. Pedlers and pushCart men,
however. were on hand in large numbers.

Not only were the markets popular

business was still In progress at shutdown.
