HOUSES PASSES
TRUST PROGRAM
Interstate Trade Commission Bill, 0nmi.
bus Anti. Trust Bill and Railroad
Securities Bill Pass.
GIVEN LARGE MAjORITIES
And Now They Will Be Passed on to
the Senate for Its
Approval.

Washington.-Repr Adam
son of Georgia, chairman of the house
committee on interstate and foreign
commerce, had charge Of two of the
three administration antitrust bills
that passed the house Friday.
The railroad stock and bonds pro-
vision was passed by vote of 1926 to
II, and the other unanimously. The
trust bill, with a provision aimed al
interlocking directorates, was in
charge of the chairman of the judici
airy committee.
Representative Bartlett of South
Carolina was one of the four Demo
Gratis to vote against the stock anC
bonds bill This measure was attacked
because it would give complete contro
over the big trunk lines to the inter
state commerce commission, it was
said, and deny the states any power tt
regulate their securities.
These measures will be under con
sideration for months in the senate
That body is expected to change the
bills materially, just as it altered the
trust and currency bills which were
sent to the senate marked Rush"

Huerta States Terms.

Niagara Falls, Ont.-General Huerta
is preparing to resign. He authorized
his representatives at the mediation
conference to announce to the world
that "enither mistaken pride nor per-
sonal interest would prevent his
withdrawal when once Mexico is "po-
litically pacifed," and the government
succeeding his is so constituted that
it can count on the support Of public
opinion in Mexico. The Mexican del
egates in their formal statement re-
vealed that they had been Instructed
to inform the mediators that General
Huerta's personality would not be an
obstacle toward reaching peaceful
settlement. They also stated that the
internal situation in Mexico was
necessarily bound up with the inter
national questions" and that this spir-
it had actuated them in coming to
the mediation conference Coincident
with the announcement by the Mexl
can delegates Of their position, the
mediatOrs sent a note by mail to
Rafael Zubaran Capmany, representa-
tive of General Carranza in Washing
ton, replying to the communication
brought here by Juan F. Urquidi.
The commonwealth. (Scotland Neck, N.C.) 1896-1929, 1914-06-11
Directors Now Direct.

Observation-Disclosures S. Elton, of Wa
terbury, Conn, and William Skinner
of Holyoke, Mass, directors of the
New York, New Haven and Hartford
railroad, testifying before the inter
state commerce commission at its in
vestigation into the affairs of the road,
said the acquisition of various New
England trolleys, steamship lines and
other properties at cost of many mil
lions of dollars, constituted part of
the New Ravens comprehensive plan
to increase it's facilities. Mr.. Elton
testified that the New Haven directors
had changed their methods and now
were not Influenced SO much by one or
two men-like J. P. Morgan and former
President Mellen-as they formerly
were. He said the directors now di
rect" and had learned a great many
things" He added that President Ell
lott was more deliberate than Mr.
Mellen and did not rush them off their
feet
The commonwealth. (Scotland Neck, N.C.) 1896-1929, 1914-06-11
ARE NO STRINGS TO
: HUERTA'S PROMISE
HIS DELEGATES EXPLAIN THAT
HIS WILLINGNESS TO RETIRE
is GENUINE.
DEMANDS POLITICAL PEACE
If Agreement Can Secure That, He
says He Will Be Satisfied by Other
Method.

Niagara Falls.-No conditions are
attached to Gen. Huerta's promise to
resign the Mexican presidency as
soon as his country is politically pac-
fled" His delegates to the mediation
conference took occasion to say pub
licly that he does not intend to hide
behind technicalities.
The Mexican delegation had con-
Guided that it's recent statement set
ting forth the attitude of Gen. Huerta
towards demands for his retirement
was misinterpreted in some quarters.
1t had been said that under the Ian
guage of his pledge to retire when
the country was politically pacified,
Gen. Huerta might Insist on holding
office until all guerilla bands were
dispersed On that account another
statement was issued by the Huerta
delegation. 1t reads. -.
"Mr RabaZa Of the Mexican dele
CATION has been asked what is the
Interpretation given by the Mexican
delegates to the word politically in
the statement declaring that. Gen.
