Railroad claims regarding anything
nowadays must be taken with a bar
rel of salt. Following close on the
disclosure of the frauds perpetrated
upon the stockholders by the director
ates of the Frisco and the New Haven
comes a statement from the interstate
commerce commission charging the
c., B. & St. P. r. r. with falsely re-
porting "a decrease of 100000 in in
come due to failure to obtain higher
freight rates" 1t is also charged that
''it falsely reported the income of its
Puget Sound company to be more than
81, 900, 900 in excess of its income; and
that the Puget Sound company false
ly reported a valuation of its property
which was $4,000, 900 in excess of its
cash investment" Evidently the
claims of the different railroads as to
their income under existing freight
rates need to be carefully investigated
before any advances are permitted.

Four Bank Reserves to Be Established

sippi River, and One in Texas
or New Orleans.

ton Boston, New York and Philadel-

Between the Allegheny mountains and
the Rockies the prophets agree that
Chicago, st. Louis and Kansas City

KODAK COMPANY PAYS MILLIONS
Huge Money Settlement Is Said to
Have Been Made for Use of Films.

New York.-Represent of the
Eastman Kodak company and the Ans
co company have confirmed the state
ment that a money settlement, the
amount of which was not given, had
been reached on the question of the
Goodwin patent, over which the con-
Germs fought for years. The United

cided in favor of the Ansco company.
The suit involved the use of the
Goodwin patent, claimed by the Ansco
company since 1898, and covers all
cartridge films, film packs and cine
matograph films made by the East
man company. By the terms of the
settlement it is understood the East
man company is given permission 70

Estimates of the amount paid in set
Element run into the millions.

House Passes Bill.

The house of representatives, after
one of the most spectacular legislative
struggles in the history of the nation,
voted Tuesday night to repeal the pro
vision of the Panama canal act eX-
empting American vessels from the
payment of tolls. The vote on the
Sims repeal bill was 247 to 161, a ma
jority of Sc votes in support of the
personal plea of President Wilson.
Speaker Clark Opposed to Repeal.
Nothing, it seemed, could stem the
tide of administration success. Speak
er Clark, for nearly % years a mem
Der of the house, made the speech OF
his life to forestall what he termed
''unquestionable degradation" of the
nation In this he failed, but he did
smooth over the party breach with
kindly words for his adversaries,
praise for President Wilson and an
unqualified denial of any vaulting am.
bition on his own behalf. When
Speaker Clark had closed the debate
for the opposition to the repeal with
an impassioned argument he was tri
umphant in defeat, for the entire leg
islative assemblage, in which were
many senators, rose to cheer him.

administration leaders while general

tinues to hold the public interest.
The intimation that a prolonged fill

termined upon, now that the first de-
cisive battle had been won in the
house by the president, was reported
to several senatorial supporters of the
administration, and was suggested
that Senator O'Gorman, chairman of
the committee on interoceanic canals,
already was delaying consideration of
the measure by his committee.
Representative Underwood demo
cratic house floor leader, recently de-
livered a speech against repeating the
Panama tolls exemption, as urged by
President Wilson.
Senator owen recently addressed
the senate, supporting President Viii

Even with the existing democratic dis
cussion left out of the situation it is
one fraught with complications.
