Hepburn Bill Does Not Properly Protect Shippers or Communities Washington, April 30.—Congress la continuing to debate the railroad rate question ln the effort to turn out a bill that will be constitutional and that will not do more harm than good. The latter nppeara to be a difficult task. It has been pointed out ln th«* different speeches In Cong ress that almost every provision cf the Hepburn bill will result ln Injury and Injustice to the shippers and producers In some part of the coun try.

All known artesian well remedies amendments to the bill have been proposed, but tho present Indica tion seems to be that Congress will paBB the bill with a provision giving the courts the right' to review the decisions of the Interstate Com merce Commission, ln the hope that the courtB will protect the shippers, from serious damage. Meanwhile, ’hooks on the subject of railroad rate making continue to appear, giving the results of studies on this subject by various investiga tors. The latest of these books Is by Mr. Frank Parsons, a professor of political economy. Prof. Parsons Is strongly In favor of having rates fixed by tbe government, but he rec ognizes the fact that If the rates are controlled by a political commission sitting ln Washington, - this commis sion will practically control all the billions of dollars of ratlfoad prop yls’ In the country, as well is tbe ' -shift- liers hud tho 1 M"n® 1 On this subject he says wero applied but the sand would not give way to water. Some aqua pura found Its way Into tbe pipes but the normal flow could not be secured. Finally the Savannah Fire Depart ment was called upon and more than half a day was spent yesterday and last night In pumping a heavy stream of water through the main pipe to clear It out. This did a little good. The remedy was applied further last night but tbe effect was not what had been hoped for. The bank officials do not think the eartbquak* had anything to do with the trouble.
