city corporation counsel who gives
an opinion on the automatic phone
case is a member of the law firm en-
ployed by the automatic telephone
company?
The Woman's Party of Cook Coun-
ty is anxious to know, and it wants
Mayor Harrison to give the eanswer.
John w. Beckwith, appointed cor
poration counsel by Harrison, is a
member of the law firm of Felsen-
thai, Beckwith, Wilson & Spengler.
That firm is retained by the Illinois
Tunnel Co. in its fight to grab the
automatic phone system.
An attorney for the tunnel COM
pany, Ely B. Felsenthal, senior mem
Der of the firm, signed an opinion de-
claring the city had no forfeiture
rights to the automatic.
AS corporation counsel, represent
ing the people of Chicago, Beckwith
signed and handed to the council
committee on gas, light and oil, an
opinion saying the city was barred
from selling the automatic under the
forfeiture clause.
The opinions are so alike that they
are even worded the same in places.
Delegates from the Woman's Par
ty met at the Hotel La Sale yester-
day and, after considering these in
'teresting things, drew up a resolu-
ton demanding an explanation from

tiOn o. Boston and Maine.

with him. met the directors yesterday.
After the conference, which lasted four
hours. Mr.. Elliott said that no formal &C
ton was taken on the tentative plan dis
cussed In Washington for the separation
OF the. Boston and Maine from the New
Haven.
"Messrs Storey. Hines. Grim and Elliott
are to continue negotiations along the
lines heretofore discussed with the Attor-
ney General" said Mr.. Elliott This IL
a big proposition and II takes time. It Is
a slow and delicate process, doing away
with what has taken twenty or twenty
Ave years to grow. But we're sawing
wood, and getting on little by little and
step by step"
Mr.. Elliott was asked II any agree
ment had been entered into between him
and Attorney General McRsynolds as to
immunity from prosecution for alleged
violation of the Sherman law. He replied
that 1t had "never been discussed In any
way with any one"
The conferences In Washington the last

WAsHiHGroN Feb le.--The New York

fairs were injected into the Senate again
to- day by Senator Norris OF Nebraska,
who offered the following resolution;
Resolved, That the Attorney General
be. and he u hereby. directed to inform
the Senate whether the Department OF
Justice has entered. or " contemplating
entering into any contract, agreement
or understanding with the officials or
other persons rrpres.n ting the New
York New Haven and Hartford company
regarding the reorganization OF said
company or the settlement OF its hnan-
ciai or other difi'culties. and II any such
contract. understanding or agreement
has been entered into. or Is contem-
plated. then to inform the Senate speci-
fically whether said contract agreement
or understanding. directly or indirectly
contenplates:
II. The giving OF immunity from prose-
cut!on TO any person or persons connected
with said railroad company or any OF liz
subsidiaries or any Of its fiscal or finan-
cial agents. or any other person or per
sons. -
"?. Whether such contract. agreement
or understanding either directly or indi-
rectly contemplates the surrender By said
railroad company or any OF Its stockhold-
ers of any right to begin and maintain an
action for the recovery Of money or dam
ages on account of the incorporation
OF the money. funds OF property OF said
company By It's officers. agents. employees,
fiscal agents or other person or persons"
The resolution was not acted upon to-
day. objection being made by Senator
Bankhead Of Alabama.
Back OF Senator Norris's resolution IL
believed to be desire to get at the Bog
ton and Maine agreement. The Senator
IL evidently DESTROYS OF getting some ad-
vance Information Ms TO Just what this
agreement contemplates.
II was learned that before introducing
his resolution Mr.. Norris had conferred
with Gen. W. Il. Lawrence OF Medford,
Mass. who came to Washington to-day In
response to a telegram. Mr.. Lawrence
Is one of the largest stockholders Ia the
boston and Maine. He is supposed to
represent other shareholders and to be
anxious to conserve the interests OF these
people. He has apparently been unw!ll-
ing to entrust the interest he represents
to Gov. Walsh Of Massachusetts.
Gen. Lawrence Is in favor of an ALB
solute divorcing Of the Boston and Maize
from the New York. New Haven and
Hartford management, but he wants u
contaminated within two years instead OF
ten years. as insisted upon by the New
Haven interests.

Justify the belief that the commission
recognizes that the carriers have estab-
lished a prima facie care showing the
need Of additional net revenue. Carriers
expect to be heard further az TO their
time propose to offer as witnesses the
chief executives Of a number OF the COM
panies involved and such other witnesses
as the commission may desire TO hear. II Is
believed that Il will be clearly demon
strated at that time that the net revenues
which the carriers In official classification
territory receive under existing rates and
practices are not adequate and the com
mission has definitely stated that In that
event II will give consideration to what
course carriers may pursue to meet the
situation"
President willard based his talk yes
terday on the announcement by the COM
mission early On the week that tho
advance In rates was further suspended
until September ~. lie made II clear
that this by no means delays the decision
on the advance until that time.
"The postponement was merely per-
functory act," said Mr.. Willard, "and In
accord with tho law that authorizes the
commission to suspend tarins for full
period OF ten months In order that tho
questions at issue be properly investi-
gated. II does not necessarily follow that
the proposed increases may not become
effective until September IL because II
IL we'll within the power OF the commits
sion to permit them to become effective
on any date within that period"
President Willard said that while II Is
clear that the Interstate Commerce Com
mission believes that larger net revenues
are essential for the well being OF the
railroads the hearings and the questions
t.x.ls Lat,
that II feels that the increase may be
gained In some other way that by a fiat
Increase OF per cent.
II do not fully share the expressed
views OF the commission as to the sum OF
money that may be saved TO carriers by
the changes suggested said President
willard OF the proposal to end special
allowances for tap lines and other prIvi-
lexes by the railroads to Industrial con-
Germs. However. the carriers will CO.
operate fully with the commission In the
furtherance OF any plan intended to In
crease their net revenues.
