BILL TO SUPPRESS TRUSTS. | Introduced in the Senate by Mr. Reagan. | Mr. Morgan on the Fishery Treaty | PERSONAL DEBATE IN THE HOUSE. i Mr. Reagan introduced a bill to define trusts and to provide for the punishment of persons con- nected with them or carrying them on, and moved its reference to the committee on the Judictary. ‘Mr. Sherman suggested its reference to the com- mittee on Mnance, which had already cnarge of the same subject, under instructions to inquire and report whether any remedy can be found for juch trusts and combinations. Mr. Resgan said he had no objection to the reference Uo the committee on finance, as the sub- Ject was now before that committee. ‘Mr. Beck said that the committee on finance had its bands pretty (ull now, and was likely to have its hands full up to the eni of the session. He did not believe that that committee could look into the matter; and he thougut it should be referred to the committee on commerce or the committee on che judiciary. Mr. Keayan said he had indicated the judiciary comunittee, because the bili invoived interesting ‘nd important questions of law. MR. SHERMAN ON THE SUBJECT OF TRUSTS. ‘Mr, Snerman repeated that the committee on finance had been already charged with the con- sideration of tne subject; and he had himself given some attention to it, in order to see how far it was withio the constitutional power of Con wo prohibit trusts and combinations in restraint of trade, It was very clear (hat there was m0 such power in Congress to be derived from its power to Taise and collect taxes, It was a power which might be exercised by each stave for itself. Similar jaws had been enacted in Kugiand and other cuuntries. Judeed tuere were in “Blackstone's Commentaries” DENUNCIATIONS OF TRUSTS AND MONOPOLIES as strong as could be written in the English lan- guage, Whether such laws could be engrafied by national authority on the statute book of the United Siates under its peculiar system of govern- meut there was some doubt. It it could ve done at all it would have to be done on a tariff or reve- ue Dill, He did not see in what other way It could be done, The difficulty was that some of the most dangerous of such combinations (iike the Standard Ou Co.) grew oui of matiers that were not taxed. It was certain tuat where such com- Dinatious grew out of the revenue laws—iike ihe sugar Crust (one of the most dangerous and wrong. ful Urusts ever organized in the ycou=try), 1t coul be legislated against by Congress, “Aud’ pera the best way Was to let the inatier go Where the Senste nad alreagy sent it—to the committee on finance. If such provisions 48 would be reported from that committee were not deemed wise, oF, If At were thougat vest to take the opinion of the Judiciary committee on their constitutionally and emiciency, he would have no objection to their being referred to tuat committee, AS a matter of course auy legislation on tue subject of trusts or cowbinations 10 restratuc of trade must grow Gut Of revenue laws, Otherwise It would not be within the power of Congress vo deal with theul, Mr. Reagan said that the blll was framed with a view of avulding the coustivuuonal difticulty of assuming to legislate on a matter of sta e jurisdic tion. ‘Tere was aiso a dillicuity in defining what 4 trust Was and in providing appropriate penaluies, He was wi-llug Wo seave the rererence of the vill Uhe Senate, After sume iurther discussion the Dill Was referred Lo the committee on finance. AMERICAN CREWS ON AMERICAN VESSELS, Mr. Reagan also introduced a bill, which was re- ferred to the committee on commerce, requiring the officers and at least three-fourths of the crew of every United States merchant, Whaling and fisuing ‘vVesvel to be either butive born of naturalized citi- zens of the United States. THE INDIAN TBADERSHIP INVESTIGATION. ‘The resolution offered some tme since by Mr, Chandierinstructing the select committee on In- dian traders to continue 1ts investigations during the recess, was reported back and agreed to, ‘The House bill granting the right of way to the Breunen of New York, and C.

WHY THE PRESIDENT WOULD NOT SION IT. It is said at the Capitol to-day that the Presi- dent’s objection to the river and harbor bill, which Jed him to withhold his approval, was based, it is Said at the Capitol, upon the manner in which the Mississippi! and Missouri River commissions are treated. ‘The act appropriates about $4,000,000 forthe Mtssissipp! Kiver, and with the exception Of abuut $2,000,000, 1 specifically directs how Ube money shall be ex; It prescribes that a certain amount shall be expended at one plaze or on @ certain “reach.” About $1,100,000 are appro- rat d for the Missourt Kiver,of which only about 5,000 are left to be used in accordance with the Judgment of the commission, ‘The President holds tiat Congress should either have aboiisued the Commissioners or left them to exercise proper discretion in the improvements; that, under the terms of the law, the two Commis- Sionérs are simply dgure-heads without power or discretion to accomplish anything. Tue Senate commerce commitiee did abolish Une Missour River commission, but in the Senate that clause was stricken out and the commission continued in ex- istence. ‘The President's opinion is that the commissions, selected with reference to their special ftness for the duties, are better competent to determine how {the money should be expended than Congress.
