DEFENDS RAIL BILL SENATOR ROOT COMBATS CUMWINS' ARGUMENT AGAINST TAFT MEASURE. WILL IMPROVE PRESENT LAW New Yorker Declares It Represents Continuous Republican Policy Through Three Administrations Amendments Presented to Senate. Washington Mar. 31. Following the presentation In the senate of amendments to the railroad bill agreed upon by the organization leaders, Senator Root began a strong legal argument combating the reasons advanced by Senator Cummins In opposition to the administration measure. Amendments In Brief. The amendments submitted provide briefly as follows: Authorizng appeals to the supreme court from Interlocutory decree; compelling a bearing upon five-days' notice in connection with a temporary suspension of any orders of the commission; changing the section relative to the control of water routes so as to eliminate the supervision of the commission over port to port rates; permitting complainants before the commission to be represented by counsel in cases' taken up on appeal; reversing the original Wickersham amendment limiting the jurisdiction of the court of commerce to that jurisdiction now exercised by circuit courts of the United States. Senator Root said he believed that in some particulars the pending bill ought to be amended. In the main, however, he gave It his approval. Its general scope showed that It would Improve and strengthen the present law. Betters Present Law. "This bill." said Senator Root, "is a decided, positive and progressive measure towards the better accomplishment of the purpose of the law creating the interstate committee commission. 1 believe the bill responds to the expressed and continuous policy of the party now In power and responsible for the conduct of governmental affairs." Senator Root read extracts from the speech of acceptance of President Taft on this subject That speech, he said, had been the subject of a conference between Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Taft and it was fair to assume that it represented a continuous Republican policy through three administrations.

YOUR HARE
SEEK IMPEACHMENT OF JUDGE GR0SSCUP Illinois Congressman Introduces Resolution Asking Investigation by Congress. Washington, Apr. 2. A movement started by organized labor to institute Impeachment proceedings against United States Circuit Judge Peter S. Groascup Is behind a resolution asking an investigation of the federal court officers' fees which Representative Sabatb of Chicago introduced in the house. Congressman Sabath's resolution directs the attorney general to furnish the house with thenames of all persons connected with the departJudge Peter S. Grosscup. ment of justice, and particularly the United States circuit and district courts, who receive compensation other than a fixed salary. Mr. Sabath said that ho desired mainly to break up the "court cliques in Chicago that have got a corner on bankruptcy proceedings and receiverships." The primary purpose of the resolution, ho explained, was to secure a record of all clerks, special attorneys, masters In chancery, referees and other attaches of tbe court who receive compensation other than that fixed by the regular salary list, in order that their relations with the several courts could be checked up. Naturally, he added, the Investigation would lead up to Judge Grosscup, who appointed his confidential clerk one of the receivers of the Union Traction Company at Chicago.

PEACE III WAGE WAR
BOTH SIDES MAKE MOVES BRING ABOUT A SETTLEMENT. TO LONG ILLINOIS SIEGE SEEN Miners to the Number of 300,000 Are Out and Wage Negotiations Are Undertaken Issues Will Take Time to Adjust. Indianapolis, Apr. 2. Both sides are making moves to bring about peace in the great wage war started when 300,000 miners In the bituminous fields walked out Tho miners demand that their new contract must provide for a wage Increase of 5.65 per cent, a ton on screened and an equivalent Increase on "run-of-the mlne" coal. Conferences between the miners, organizations in tbe various districts and the corresponding operators' associations have been arranged. Ad justment of the difficulty may takei weeks or days. In the Brazil block' coal district of Indiana there will not be a suspension, for the operators conceded the demand of the miners. Illinois Peace Not So Near. In Illinois and western Pennsylvania, where the powder question and who shall pay the shot-firers enter the controversy, a prolonged contest is likely. At hundreds of meetings in large and small miners' communities, where the people dependent on tho industry assembled to listen to the speeches of their union leaders, the "strike" was the one subject of discussion. National officers and members of the executive board of the United Mine Workers of America, who had been In secret session at their headquarters in this city, departed for their districts to advise the local organizations In the negotiations with the mine owners. President Thomas L. Lewis spoke at Beeleville. 111., East St Louis and other towns. Illinois Strike May Last Long. Chicago, Apr. 1. Unless the miners' strike should continue several months there Is declared to be no danger of a fuel famine in Chicago. Officers of the coal operators' association last night again expressed this belief.. "The shut-down will continue at least 30 days," said E. T. Bent secretary of the organization. "The railroads and large concerns have a supply which will last from 30 to 60 days. The visible supply is adequate for all. Here In Illinois we have not less than three weeks of hard work before us in an effort to reach a settlement Tho result is that idleness in April is inevitable."
