Joined with members of Congress in
anxiety for an early adjournment he
strongly felt that the antitrust bills

, The conference lasted until late in

Democratic Leader Kern, Senators
Owen. Hokc Smith. Thomas. O'Gorman.
Martin. Newlands. Chamberlain, Clarke.
or Arkansas, and Culbcrson.
The consensus of opinion at the con-
ference. as expressed by several of
the Senators afterwards. was that there
should be little difficulty in getting the
antitrust measures reported out OF
committee and in passing them through
| the Senate
Varying opinions were expressed as
to the probable time OF adjournment
OF Congress, but IL was generally
agreed that the session should be con-
tinued until the antitrust measures are
| finally disposed of.
The President was told that the In
tcrstatc Commerce Committee is pro-
cccdinE rapidly with the railroad Sc
curities bill, and should be ablc to
report to the Senate within the next
week or ten days.
The same report was made on the
general trust bill, now being con-

Tho Democratic Senators also told
the President there seemed 10 be no
general disposition on the part OF the
Republicans to make the antitrust bin

TACT that majority of the Rcpubli
cans voted for the trade commission

ness OF the minority to co-operate In

citcu as the principal reason why there
