Senator Beaten in Attempt To Make Canadian Line
 Charge As Much AS
 American Lines MAY ATTEMPT IT AGAIN Likely to be Further At- tempt to Make Grand Trunk Charge More
 Grigsby Beat It

WASHINGTON, Dec 20-Senator Wesley l.. Jones failed yesterday in the Senate to secure the adoption of an amendment to the Cummins Rail. road bill which would have made it illegal for Canadian railroad lines to make a lower rate between American points through Canada than the rate between the same points via Ameri- can lines. Another attempt may be made to put the amendment over.
 This is the same amendment which Representative Albert Johnson of Washington attempted to get adopted in the House of Representative and which was defeated through the eff forts of Delegate George B. Grigsby of Alaska. MT Grigsby made the only speech against the amendment that was made in the House of Re. presentatives.
 In its present form it would. ac- cordipg to Delegate Grigsby, deprive Alaska of the benefit of the lower freight and passenger rates over the shorter haul of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railroad.
 Delegate Grigsby is using his best efforts to defeat the proposed legis- lation as far as 1t affects Alaska. He contends that Alaska should have all the benefit of the shorter line of communication between Alaska and the East furnished by the railroad from Prince Rupert
