ROOT-O’GORMAN CLASH IN SENATE

Row Occurs When Solon Assails Carnegie. FOLLOWS TREATY DEBATE Naw York Members Enliven Session Over Renewal of Arbitration Pacta, Which Now Appear to Be Assured. Washington, Feb. 20.— Extension of general arbitration treaties with foreign nations as the first move In the general policy of the administration to rehabilitate foreign relations of the United States seemed assured after the senate had taken up consideration of expired treaties and had closely defined the issues involved in the situation confronting the nation. In the senate the lines of demarcation as to the foreign policy of the government were sharply drawn when Senator Chamberlain of Oregon submitted a general amendment to all pending treaties. Exemption From Arbitration. This would exempt from arbitration by The Hague tribunal the following subjects: Admission of aliens into the United States. Admission of alien children into the schools of the various states. (Involving the Japanese question on the Pacific coast) All questions arising from the Monroe doctrine. Provision of the Panama canal act exempting American coastwise shipping from tolls. Discussion of the subject enlivened the senate behind closed doors, as it has not been moved in many days, and a clash between Senators O'Gorman and Root of New York marked the climax of heated debate. Assails Carnegie Endowment Senator O’Gorman assailed the Carnegie Endowment for Interactional Peace, of which Senator Root is the president, declaring that its prime motive was a “corrupt one;" that it did not seek to promote international peace, but to create an international alliance betwen Great Britain and the United States to the benefit of individuals who would profit from such a consummation. Senator Root, taking the remarks of his colleague as a personal offense, resented them in vigorous language. Wilson Favors Trade Board Bill. President Wilson desires that the proposed bills dealing with the trust problem be phrased and adapted to the decisions already rendered by the Supreme court of the United States on the Sherman anti-trust law. This was the object of his conference with Attorney General Mcßeynolds. Trade Body Chief Issue.

The president regards the bill creating an interstate trade commission as the central figure of the trust program, and he intimated to callers that the trade commission should include the bureau of corporations: It was indicated that in training of the trust legislation means w ill be found to protect small business, concerns from statutes prohibiting trade arrangements and- combinations. The subcommittee is considering and may agree to redraft all four of Its measures, those dealing with holding companies, interlocking- directorates, trade relations and definitions of restraints of trade into one bill to be introduced upon the conclusion of the hearings scheduled for the last Of the week. ■' Holding Company Plan. The holding company bill, as framed last night and as it may be presented as a separate bill early next week, would prohibit the existence of holding corporations which, by their nature, prevent competition in interstate business by combining competing concerns. It excepts from the inhibition such concerns as the great life insurance companies.

TO REFUSE U. S. MAIL

PRESIDENT OF M. & ST. L. WARS ON PARCEL POST. Erb Says That He Has Already Lodged a Statement With Wilson and Postmaster General.

London, England, Feb. 20.—" My road intends, as a protest against the injustice to the railroads of the present parcel post arrangements, to refuse to carry the United States mails,” said Newman Erb, president of the Minneapolis & St. Louis Railroad company, to a correspondent. “I have already lodged a statement with the president and postmaster general. “Every American railroad stands with us on this question. The trouble has been that most companies have been afraid to demand justice in any particular instance, lest worse evils befall them. I am not afraid, for I have sufficient confidence in the judgment of the American public to believe that it will recognize the righteousness of our position and give us the necessary support.

“The anomalies under the existing practice are indefensible. Concentrated ores are shipped in 50-pound sacks by parcel post and even children are tagged and so shipped. “The postofflce department increased its revenue $25,000,000 in eight months, whereas the receipts of the express companies were reduced 22 per cent Inasmuch as the railroads receive 50 per cent, of the earnings of the express companies, they were penalized with these companies. This is an imposition on the railroads, and, if permitted to continue, ft will bring about Increased rates, thus injuring the shippers. "Success in our campaign will mean that the public will pay no more for parcel post transportation and will avoid increased shipping charges.”
