II was asCcIta.ncd to-day that the
state Railway Commission men include
among their supporters many OF the
most prominent members Of the house.
\mong these are Majority Leader Kitch-
In. Representative Leuroot and numerous
congressman from the South and West.
According to the understanding pre-
vailing in Congress the Presiden; IL
convinced that the state commissions
are a bar to the efficient regulation Of
the railroads and are hampering their
development.
The railways are greatly DESTROYS of
having the Newlands investigation cons
tinucd and were disappointed that they
could not go ON during the present
session OF Congress. Many OF the Con.
gressmen friendly To the state commits
