At U p. m. tho conference report on
tho interstate comnierco bill was called
up. .
Senator I'latt said with one excep-
tion ho favored tho .-cport. The ques-
tion ot ron(ihuiT)j inlerotate rommereo
was a vast and complicated one. In
188.0 437.000000 tons ot freight had
been moved by the rnilroads in tho
United States half of which came
under tl;e interstate commerce dillni-
tion nnd that 000000 in receipts
came from transporting this bulk.
Tho discussion of the report was nar-
row id to two points: 1' irt who h"r
the senate would adopt the long and
slmrt haul c!ausc;aud second whether
it would l iohibit "pooling." Senator
I'lalt did not consider tho lirst clause j
wiso. As an original pic-position he
did not consider it tin improvement j
on the bill as it lelt (lie senate. Thai
the senalo recognized the principle!
that was Mund nnd that principle was j
that the question of w hat ft reasona le !
chnigo on freight to or lroin station
was not to be determined by the qilcs- '
lion of W hat w hs charged lor freight !
to or font another station. He
thought that the conference report'
chin e (it to the shorter distance being I
included within the longer itisiamej
w as uncertain nnd ambiguous. As to
the "poor clnuse in the conference
bill bo believed in his inmost mind
that it was impolitic and unjust. He
quoted fr m tho reports of the bureau
of statistics for 1879 to show that pool-
ing was merely an apportionment of
tho traffic between roads engaged in
competitive traffic. Ho challenged
anybody to show that tho object or
the faithful observance of a pool traffic
was anvthing else than a maintenance
of a stable rate.
At 4 o'clock Senator I'latt had not
yet concluded his speech and tho sen-
ate on motion of fcenator Harris pro-
