Jackson, Miss, Jan. 26.-Prominent
manufacturers, representatives of rail
roads and other large employers of Ia
Dor, reached here today to go before
the senate judiciary committee for a
public hearing on the workingmen's
compensation and employers liability
act framed by Senator Potter
The bill has been very much modified
since the original draft was prepared.
Some of it's provisions are still unsatis-
factory both to labor unions and en-
ployers of labor.
The measure is also encountering
opposition from lawyers who fear that
such statute will put an end to the
damage suit business in Mississippi.
The lower house today voted to put
into effect the amendment to the fed
eral Constitution providing for direct
election of United States Senators.
Under the terms of the bill Senator
Williams will again face his constit'
uents in 1916 and Senator Vardamdn
in 1918.
By adoption of these years the legis
lature completely divorces senatorial
elections from state political cam
paigns.
More than an hour was consumed by
the house in debate on the bill prohib
iting corporations from deducting from
the wages of employees for the serv
ices of a physician. The bill finally
passed in a greatly modified form, per
mitting corporations to employ com
munity doctors, their compensation
not to exceed a reasonable salary fol
physician, and the fees to be fixed
by agreement between employers ant
employees.
The senate spent the entire forenoon
discussing the Kyle banking bill ant
left the measure pending when recess
was taken.
The method of choosing commission
ers of banking was the chief featur,
under discussion. The Norwood amend
ment providing for election of th'
commissioners by the people was final
ly adopted.

Washington, d. c., Jan. 26.-lm-
mediate Improvement of the Missis-
sippi river stands better chance OF
becoming a fact today than ever be-
fore, as it is learned on authority that
cannot be questioned that President
Wilson will devote his personal atten-
ton to having enacted an appropria-
ton that will give substantial relief
to flood sufferers along the banks Of
this waterway.
Within the next few weeks the Pres
ident will call conference composed
of cabinet members most directly In
terested in the matter and senators
and congressman who have devoted
much study to the question.
That such a conference will be held
has been directly promised by the
President to Senator Ransdell OF
Louisiana and Representative Ben
Humphreys of Mississippi, who visit
ed the White House last week in the
interest of the Ransdell-Humphreys
Ievee bill 1t is understood that at
this conference the President did not
state what form of bill he would ad
vocate, but that he did let it be known
that he would favor some effective
legislation at the present session Of
congress.
1t is known that the President in
dorses many features of the New
lands bill, which not only includes
levees for the lower Mississippi, but
also certain drainage and irrigation
projects which make it a considerably
more comprehensive measure than the
Ransdel-Humphreys bill.

of the investigation of the Frisco re-

with review of facts but without rec

resolution does mot call for express

Facts concerning the purchase of 9th
er roads by the Frisco are discussed in
detail.
While the Frisco report says nc
expression of opinion was requested
it does say that one bond deal "in
vites and warrants the condemnation
of all who assisted or participated II
it." The whole report shows that the
financial operations, not ordinary rail
road difficulties, caused the receiver
