WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.—Representa- tive Payne of New York, chairman of the Ways and Means Committee of the House, had a conference with the Presi- dent yesterday. Mr. Payne said, after leaving the White House, that he would call a meeting of the Republicans of his committee for November 20 to outline a partial programme for legislative work in the House at the approaching session, One of the matters to come before this meeting will be the proposed reduction of war revenue taxes. He did not think, however, that the reduction would exceed 15,000,000, or less than one-fifth of the present revenues from that source. Much, he thought, would depend on the state of affairs in the Philippines when the bill came up for conslderation. If a considerable army had to be maintained there for any length of time it might be thought wise not to cut down the revenues too much. There were, however, a num- ber of items in the present law that might be wisely eliminated, aru_these would re- ceive attention. Mr. Payne said he would be taken up and an effort made to pass it at the coming session. L. EASY VICTORY FOR RYAN. Plays With Thorne and Knocks Him Out in the Third.

All the parties concerned have now flled their briefs and an early dect- sion in the case is looked for. The action against the two railroad cor- porations was brought last spring, being precipitated by the alleged failure on the part of the two roads to furnish proper and adequate equipment at all times for the movement of the citrus fruits in Southern California. Prior to last year the Southern Califor- nia Fruit Exchange and the Consolidated Forwnd!nf Company did most of the routing of oranges and lemons. Last year, however. the initial companies re- fused to recognize the shippers, and the CTOp Was sent over as many different lines as the Southern Pacific and Santa Fe chose to select. This winter it is expected that the or- I.l?‘l!e crop will require at least 20,000 cars, and in consequence there is a vast amount of interest among rallroad men as to the course the initi Cownles will pursue, pending a decision by ¥he Interstate Com- mission. Vice President J. C. Stubbs said yester- day that in so far as the Southern Pacific ia concerned the same plan followed last year will be adopted this year. The complainants in their brief which was filed in_September claim that the Continental Fruit Express and the Earl Fruit Company have been given prafar- ence and advantage over their competi~ tors, but no argument or relation of evi- dencs is e to show how these agres- ments work to the prejudice or van- of the complainants. e Southern Pacific in the brief first filed says that it is evident from all the testimony that the idea of the comtract with the Continental Fruit Express being a prejudice or disadvantage to the com- plainants and other shippers was largeiy worked up after shippers were notified that the initial carriers would exercise the right of routing. Vice President Stubbs says that the e right of sole reason for exercising routing was that those who -routed the freight previcusly were hoiding up the carriers Tor rebales OF comcesalons as o consideration for sending the goods over their particular routes.
