WASHINGTON LETTER
Continued from Page u

out statements for the sole purpose
of drawing criticism. They want to
guage the weight of public sentiment
in order to ascertain just how far they
may go in building up a tariff wall.
Those demanding changes in the
tariff are usually we'll organized, but
consumers who pay the bill are so
numerous and widely scattered that
organization is impossible. Some SEN
atOrs have said that this policy Of
sending up balloons" is very enlight-
ening.
The old issue of states rights is
now given new life in the Wickersham
statement sent to Governor Roosevelt
in New York few days ago. He pro-
posed that the states should exercise
police power within their borders as
means of enforcing prohibition,
which would leave the federal govern
ment free to devote its enforcement
work to the big problems of smuggling
and wholesale manufacture for inter-
state shipment. Official Washington
seems to be rather amused over the
interpretations that are being placed
on this statement by the two factions.
Both the vets and drys are mystified
over the suggestion that with cooper
alton "the National and State laws
might be modified so as to make them
reasonably enforceable. 1t is ap-
parent that this needs calculation.
Mr.. Understands statement is also
regarded as alarming because it ap-
pears to have shifted the prohibition
issue toward new ground and to have
unloosed political currents, which
may have pronounced effects in the
next Presidential campaign in 1882.
The federal trade commission,
which was constantly in the limelight
during last winter and spring, be-
cause of its Investigation into the &C
tivities of public utilities, seems to
be now resting on it's oars" Indica-
tiOns are that the commission will
soon resume its investigation into the
financial structure of the utilities.
Certain large utility companies have
refused to supply the commission with
the evidence requested, relying on a
recent decision of the federal court
in New York, which denied that the
commission has the power to compel
the production of books and papers
without first establishing the basis
of its demands. This decision will
furnish the topic for considerable de-
bate when Congress reconvenes in a
few weeks.

Train Plunge Into Flood, Kills Nine.
Denver, Colo.-The crack train from
st. Louis to the Pacific coast over
the main line of the Chicago, Rock
Island and Pacific railroad plunged
through a bridge over a swollen
stream, three miles west of Straton,
Colo, and caused the deaths of nine
passengers. All of those who lost
their lives were in the all-steel Pull
man, placed on the train at st. Louis.
The car, submerged for "a hours on
the bed of the creek bed, was not en-.

made an earlier entrance impossible.
That additional bodies may be re-
covered before the wreckage finally
is cleared away, was the opinion OF
rescue workers and railroad officials,
who were directing relief operations.
