SEEKS TO BLOCK
RAISE IN RATES
La Toilette Offers Resolution
For Congress to Prevent
Railroads Advancing
Freight Charges.

Washington. Jan. 12.-Senator La
Toilette introduced resolution today
to prohibit the eastern railroads from
putting into effect the increased freight
rates recently granted by the Inter-
state Commerce commission.
~ In long preamble to the resolution.
Senator La Follettce set forth that no
showing was made or attempted by the
carriers to show that the old rates were
unreasonable and that the commission
in granting increases did not, in ac-
cordance with the law, consider their
unreasonableness, but granted them on
the ground that the railroads needed
money to meet extraordinary conditions
due to the European war. ,'
Senator La Toilette asked that the
resolution lie on the table and await
further action. 81
The resolution Is certain to arouse
widespread discussian and though its
adoption Is unlikely, because the pres
ident will strongly oppose Ii and the
railroads will fight 1T tooth and nail
II increases the difficulties of getting
Hall confirmed.
Provision was made in the resolu-
ton that roads affected desiring to
advance rates may file new tariffs with
the commission for hearings at which
the burden OF proof to show that in
creases are just and reasonable, shall
be upon the roads.
1t Is also set out that the railroads
did not show that existing rates were
unjust or unreasonable by being too
low and that the advances were not
warranted by law.

BIG DROP
IN WHEAT
Price SIumps 5Ia Cents Per
BuShel on Rumor That the
Allies May Soon Open
the DardaneIIeS.

Chicago, Jan. 1.-Wheat came down
today with a crash. Prices broke SAC
bushel under general selling, due To
rumors that one OF the forts guarding
the Dardanelles had been demolished
by the warships OF the allies.
Spectators drew the inference that
a way would speedily be opened for
Russian wheat that has been piled up
in immense quantities because OF the
Turkish government having enforced a
stoppage OF the natural outlet through
the Dardanelles. May wheat here sold
az low as $1.339s. having been up to
$1.39k earlier in the session.
Some sales of May at the extreme
point of the collapse were recorded at
81 33M. There was a subsequent re-
bound, however. and the market wound
up much Hurried at 3@311c under Sat
urday nights level, with May at
81 .34ssc.
