More was accomplished during the closing hours of the scssion today than in | any one week during the three months the bill has been the pending business. Not until 3 o'clock was anything done beyond listening to discussion of the meas- ure, but when at that time Senator La Follette concluded his two days’ speech in' opposition to the bill the voting proceedgd rapidly, with the following results The Cummins amenament requiring the approval of the Interstate/Commerce com- | mission of all increases in rallroad rates | before they become effective swas voted | down, 29 to 43 The Martin amendment requiring the | committee to reach a final decision on in ecreases within six months was defeated 18 to 5. An amendment by Mr. Clarke of Ar-| kansas to defer increased rates until passed | upon by the commission, but putting them | Into effect after six months, pending a final decislon, was rejected, 35 to 40. Time Limit Extended. An amendment composed of propositions by Senators Jones and Paynter was ac- cepted. This provision provides for the extension for a perfod of six months of the 12-day subpension of new rates and regulations for the hearing as to their reasonableness if not concluded in that time and for refunding of the difference between rates if ths new rate is found to be unreasonable. This amendment was adopted unanimously. An amendment by Senator Hughes strik- ing out the capitalization clause of the bill was adopted with practical unanimity, Senator Burton casting the only negative vote. Of all the votes of the day the one on the Cummins amendment was by far the most important. The vote on this amend- ment was by no means so close as h.tdi been predicted by its friends and feared | by its opponents. Three days ago the ad- | vocates of the bill, as suggested by the | administration, had been apprehensive of | the success of the Cummins provision, but | during that time they had been extremely | active, with the result that while they made Important concessions they scored the defeat of the provision. Position of Insurgents. Of the twenty-mmne votes favorable to the amendment twelve were cast by Insurgent republicans, as follows: Beveridge, Borah, | Bourne, Bristow, Burkett, Clapp, Craw- ford, Cummins, Dixon, Dolliver, Gamble and La Follette. Only four democrats, Bailey, MclInery, Smith of Maryland and Taylor, voted for tie provision. The pairs on the vote were announced as follows: Root with Tallaferro, Flint with Culberson, Lorimer with Davis, Dillingham with Tiliman, McCumber with Foster and Richardson with Rayner. Senators Bank- head, Bulkeley, Daniel, Hughes, Money, Newlands, Penrose and Percy were absent and unpaired. Explanations were made in behalt of most of the absentees. The closest vote was %5 to 40 on the amendment offered by Senator Clarke of Arkansas, regulating the extensions of time allowed for hearing on rate changes. The presentation of the Martin amend- ment requiring the Interstate Commerce | commission to reach its decisions on in- creased rates within six months and the doubt as to the effect of that provision after the expiration of that period in case| of the failure of the commission to comply with this demand, were responsible in large measure for the fate of that pro- vislon. Agree on Jones' Amendment. The Jones' amendment presented a sim- pler solution and with the Cummins pro- vislon disposed of, it was acceptable to all parties—to the opponents of the bill because it was the best they could get, and to its triends because it was found necessary to go that far in order to et enough to de- teat the Cummins amendment. Pending the vote on the Jones-Poynter amendment there was much confusion as to the parliamentary statutes of the two amendrhents as separately presented. The original suggestion of Mr. Jones merely provides for an extension of the sus- pension of the 120-day period, already al- lowed by the bill for investigations of new rates by the Interstate Commerce com- mission. It goes Into the bill as a proviso and reads as follo “That It any such hearing cannot be concluded within the perlod of suspension, the Interstate Commerce commission may, in its discretion, extend the time of sus- pension for & further period not exceed- ing six months.” The addition made at the suggestion of Mr. Paynter provides that “if the increased rate 18 found to be unreasonable the car- rier shall refund to the party paying it the difference between that and the rate as It _existed before the increase, and shall do 80 on the presentation of the bill of lading, receipt or expense bill at its office where the frelght charges were made." The Paynter provision also directs the issuance of way bills and receipts, show- ing the points of origin and destination of freight, glving the names of consignor and consignee, and the total amount of charges, all to be used as a basis for settlement, Aldrich in Affirmative, Notwithstanding it was evident from the time an agrement was reached for the ac- ceptance of the Paynter amendment that the joint provision would meet with gen- eral favor a roll call vote was ordered Mr. Aldrich's name was the first called and in @ loud voice he responded In the af- firmative. Coming immediately after him was Senator Bacon and he cast his vote in the negative. All others voted for the provision and Mr. Bacon then changed his vote, rendering the verdict unanimous. He took oceasion to state, however, he had originally voted *no” because he did not tavor the Jones' portion of the wmend- ment. Presenting his amendment striking oy sections 13, M, 15 and 17, which are broadly described ‘as the capitalization provisions of the bill, Mr. Hughes pressed for an immediate vote and the amendment was accepted Wwithout much discussion. Again the roll call developed & unanimous vote, with one exception. The negative vote was cast by Mr. Burton of Chio. In the discus- sion the fact developed that practically all the senators were opposed to the capitaliza- tien provisions.
