Tillman lias an Amendment. Senator Tillman, who was designated by the committee tirreport the Hepburn bill, sold after the committee adjourned: It was an unexpected and In one sense an undesii-ed honor and responsibility that was thrust upon me. As far as f am able I will endeavor to secure the passage of the bill through the senate with such amendments which will make It more ac ceptable to the business, Interests -of the cougtry, and -remedy . i hri evils whftiv have caused such widespread criticism. -The policv Is essentially democratic. The pro posed hill hud the unanimous support of the - democrat of the house and I hope that with a. few slight amendments it will get the snme support In the senate. Senator Tillman said that one of the most essential amendments lie should en deavor to procure looks to "the absolute divorce of public curriers, as such, from the production of coal, as miners, which' condition of monopoly hud created such a strong feeling of dissatisfaction and anger In the bituminous and anthracite coal regions." .He has already drafted an amendment coveting this point, lie sold th-.it some thing ought to be done to compel th trunk lines to make connections with the spurs and feeding lines and give them fair treat ment in the distribution of cms and offer equtil facilities with other shippers. Senator Tillman stated that in making the report on the bill he would not pre lare a formal anulysls for presentation to the senate, hut n repot t that would simply transmit the action to the senate together with the synopsis of the -testimony, taken before the committee. He has not yet taken Into consideratinn the question nf bringing the bill before the senate, but said he would press It with the view of having the dlxcusslon commenced as soon as con venient und possible.

"One thing upon which the majority of Chinese are agreed Is that China has been deprived of many rights by concessions and territorial grants and by the way Us people have been treated by foreigners in China and foreign countries. "Many Chinese who have gone abroad to America, Australia and the Philippines, write home complaining of arbitrary dis criminations made against the Chinese which dare not be attempted ngulnst other foreigners. Therefore everyone is angry, mid hence the boycott of American goods. Illustrating tlM! feeling against, the unjust exelusl n laws It has spread over all China snd is solely in retaliation against unjust discriminations, and Is not antl-forelgn. The Chinese poople and officials are on good terms with all foreisni r! and have no hostile feelings toward them. The. Chinese, merchants have the best feeling toward foreign: merchants. "The majority of the people lu the In terior are Indifferent to oil foreigners trav eling In the Interior, who write that they are well treated Willi no signs of hostility against them. These rumors of anti-foreign feeling are not well founded. Sensible men advise boyootters and agitators to be reasonable and only to boycott goods and not to treat prson unkindly, rut to con tinue their friendship as before.

For this reason I feel hound to respect their conclusions, notwithstand ing I do not asree with them In some of their recommendations.
