THE PITTSBURG- DISPATCH. THURSDAY, DECEMBER 15 1892. . 5 "M THEY FAYOR FOOLING. Railroad Officials Give Their Views on Inter-State Commerce. MET SAT IT HELPS TRUSTS. It Aids llie Eijr Eoads and Threatens to Tautrnpt the Little Ones. ROBERTS, DEPEW iND IXGALLS TALE i TVasesgiox, Dec. 14. A number of prominent railroad men.includiug Chauncey M. Depew and President Roberts, of the Pennsylvania system, were before the Sen ate Committee oa Inter-State Commerce this morning to advocate the passage of the amendment to the inter-State commerce law by 2Ir. Cullom, to modify the existing 'law so as to authorize railroad companies to form pools under the supervision of Inter State Commerce Commission, and to wipe out the penal clause of punishment pre scribed, eta The lull committee was pres ent and'sneeches were made by Mr. Depew, Mr. Roberts, Mr. "Walker and Jlr. Ingalls, these gentlemen urging that the great ma jority of the railroads of the country were in favor of the proposed amendment. President Roberts, of the Pennsylvania road, said that in his judgment the inter State commerce law has not operated for the benefit of the public in the matter of preventing discrimination. He said in the course of his remarks that he wanted to im press on the committee the fact that the law as now drawn, precludinc railroad com panies from making arrangements in refer ence to traffic aereements, induces radical violations of the law bv the companies and the shippers as welL The companies were not violating the fifth flection of the law, that preventing pooling, but iu observing its provisions they were violating some other sections. Mr. Roberts did not think the commission should be allowed to regu late rates, because it was not in the inter est of the public that it should do so. Xor was the pooling system the best; but it was better lor the public than the practice now existinc Mr. Roberts was of the opinion that it was of as much importance to the public at large that the railroad companies should not be allowed to charge too low rates as it was that they should not be permitted to charge ratesthat were too high. Pooling might be authorized by Congress, snbject to cancellation by the commission if found to b? unjust Dcpew Says It rromotes Trusts. 3Ir. Depew, President of the New Tort Central, said the inter-State commerce law had been established to prevent discrimina tion, but itB efl'Cts had been to promote trusts bevond anything that had ever been dreamed of. There were eight roads be tween Xew York and Chicago, but for all the purposes of the public there were but one. It an iron-clad rule of equal rates under equal conditions of time was estab lished, the Hew York Central and the Penn sylvania would do eight-tenths of the busi ness The other roads would go into bank ruptcy, with all the attendants of bank ruptcy. In this wav the law preventing pooling was creating trusts. If this law continued in force five years lonzer Mr. Depew thought there would not be an independent business man in my of the large cities of the United States. It "was creating trusts and this condition of afiairs was being brought about by the mis erable operations of a law intended to pre enttbem. In response to the query of Mr. Cullom as to how the evil was to be cured, Mr. Depew said that under the pro posed amendment, the roads would be .authorized to make contracts upon a busi ness basis, and could agree upon rates which would be alwavs the same to the public. The law would empower theom Tianies to enforce their agreements, and the putilic wouia De proieciea oy puiun the matter under the control ot the corneals- eion. ;o - In discussing the existins conditions, Mr. Dcnew said that it would soon be im possible" for manufacturers to exist except at terminal points a statement which caused Mr. Brice to ask it he was to be understood as meaning that Ivew York and other cities of like character would be favored to the discrimination of such places b.s L.ma. Xewark and other places in Ohio,' which the Ohio Senator named. To this Mr. Depew replied that undr the operation sf the present law such places would cease to exist, except as to the summer residences ot United States Senators. IngaUs Fators It. Mr. Ingalls, President of the Big Four and Chesapeake and Ohio roads, said that two situations confronted the railroads of the country. If they went into competi tion under the law the railroads would be come bankrupt, or, in the end, be forced to make a combination which would put them under one control, and then the power to regulate them would slip from the grasp of the lecislators. The general public now paid the full rate, while the big dealers were the ones who got the advantage of the rebate. Under the existing law Mr. Ingalls said the small dealers were being driven out of business, to the great detriment of the wqole coun try. It was for the interest of the whole country that the railroads should prosper. A million men were employed in the busi ness, and twice that number were engaged in manufactures that lumished railroad supplier It was to the interest of the railrods to enforce the law, and if the law, as the companies were now seeking to have it amended, had been in force the principal competitor of Ihe Chesapeake and Ohio would have been bankrupt, so many cases of violation had they made against it In concluding, Mr. Ingalls said -hat it had come to the point where the roads were compelled to get under the shadow of the law to keep business. If the amend ment sought, parsed, it would not result iu an increase ot rates, but in equal rates, and in many cases in reduced rates. Many of the railroads had done all they could to ' break down the inter-State commerce law; but they had become educated and were now in favor of it. Mr. "Walker, of the Trunk lines, spoke briefly, and said the object of the bill was to suppress unhealthy competition, not healthy competition. The committee will probably hold another session next .Monday. Holiday Gift Goods. You will find the most satisfactory display right hero. Diamonds, Jew dry.

This beini Co lumbus j ear thev linvo very appropriately selected the world's great discoverer as the attraction, and by a series of superb and life-like tableaux have represented the nioio Important scones in that sreat man's All the details of costume, furnishings and makeup in the scenes presented are scrupulously exact in their portrayal; each costume in the various groups has been made from designs taken from autbentio costumes ot the fifteenth century. Among the scenes are thn marriage of Co lumbus to the-daugluer of an Admiral by which lie came into possession of many im portant naval documents which proved or untold valno to him lateron. At the con clusion of the ceremony the newly-made wire is seen giving alms to a Lisbon begsar who predicts great celebrity lor the name of Colunibu. . Another scono is that of Columbus beroro tho council. Here he is seen stating the reasons that led him to believo in the existence of the now world. Still another realistic scene is the landing of Columbus, in which he Is depicted hold ing in his left hand tho standard of tho expedition and in Ills right his commander s sword, accompanied by a Monk carrying the cross of Christendom, and by two men-at-arms and two s-allors. Here tho natives are seen fleeing at his approach. In ono window Columbus Is illustrated as In chains in orison tho victim or the envy and jealous'v of his detractors, and in another ho is seen proposing the problem or making an em stand on end. Trobably tho best tableau piesented is In the larse corner window. Here is faithfully set forth the reception or the great dis coverer at tho court or Spiln. Ferdinand, the king, wearing a hat with flowing white plume, and Isabella, crowned with the diadem of Castile, leceive Columbus on his return from his first yovago of discovery. Behind Columbus, bare-headed and bending the knee, is seen an Indian family with monkeys and parrots and products or the newly-discovered land, while to the right and lert float the banner or Spain and tho standard or the expedition. The scenes are lire-like, realistic and beautiful and will repay critical exami nation. It is seldom that tableaux or equal merit can be seen for nothing.

UillLll I AL About What HSl nSPTIlS Pl'lfly 1 1 An Oriental Rug as a Christmas Gift is almost unique in its appropriateness. It not only lasts a lifetime, but may be handed down from one p-eneration to another, its beauty not diminishing in the least witn age or use. And, besides, it gracefully expresses the donor's aesthetic appreciation of the value of these world-famed products of the Oriental weaver's skill. One must concede that a fine Oriental Rug is as much of a work of art as a fine painting, who studies the ex quisite expression of the im aginative faculty in the com bination of forms in a sym metrical design, with perfect color-harmony. We invite special attention to our exceptionally large and carefully selected stock of Oriental Rugs as being of, a much higher class than those found at the "special auction sales," and in the hands of the wandering deal ers, accompanied by varied tales, of how they are enabled to tell so cheaply. Our repu tation and permanence in bus iness compel us to handle Rugs as our other goods, and to protect our customers from hidden faults and imperfec tions.
