A bill making sweeping changes In the, interstate commerce laws for the regulation of railroads was introduced In the house by Representative Mann of Illinois, chairman of the committee on Inter state and foreign commerce. The bill ls not in accord with the one pre pared by the committee acting under the direction of President Taft and known as the "Administration Rail road Bill," but was prepared by Chair man Mann during the summer vaca tion of congress. The measure does not provide for a Bpecial court to hear Interstate com merce cases, as has been reported would be the form of legislation on this subject, which President Taft would recommend. It proposes, how ever, to create in the department of common o and labor a bureau to be called the "bureau of transportation," where a shinier may file a complaint agajnst a railroad'. If, after an lr vestlgatlon, the commissioner of the bureau of transportation finds that there ls Justice in the complaint he ' must report the facts to the attorney general of the United States, and if the attorney general is satisfied that there Is a cause of . action he is re quired to file a petition w;th the inter state commerce commission and prose cute the case at the expense of the government.
