Ho Is 77 years old, LfiT THE COMBINATIONS STAY This is Advice of Committee Invest! crating Shipping Pools. LINES OPERATE UNDER PACTS Any Attempt nt Dissolution Would Cripple Trade, According to Ttrport of Congressional Probers, WASHINGTON, March 2.-Forclgn and domestld shipping of tho United States Is so combined by agreements, pools, and conference arrangements that an attempt to dissolve tho combinations would cripple ttade. This is tho conclusion reached by the house merchant marine and fisheries com mittee In tho final report of the so-callod shipping trust Investigation made public today. The commltteo after two years of Inquiry, recommends that both for eign and domestic shipping combinations be placed under control of the Interstate Commerce commission, and that, it neces sary, tho commission be enlarged to caro for the additional work. The final recommendations of the com mittee, embodied In the lourtcenth vol ume of Its report. Just compiled, sets forth that shipping lines In practically every trade route from or to United States ports are operated by agreement or con ference to restrain competition. The re port sets forth that tho advantages ac cruing to both shipper nnd ship line through these agreements are so great that the combinations should bo allowed to continue, under the supervision of the Interstate Commerce commission as to rates, clasltlcatlomv rebates and dis crimination. It would be futile, tho com mute asserts lo attempt to restore vompctltlon by ordering existing agree ments terminated. The report deals with 800 foreign nnd domestic navigation companies and 200 vtllroad lines. ORDER TO DELAY TRIP FOR BENTON INQUIRY MADEBY CARRANZA (Continued from Page One.) official view point here Is some Intima tion from Great Britain as to how far t expects the United States to push the Benton case. On the other hand, there is every reason to believe that Carranza will be expected In tho near future to give tho American government further assur ances that nil foreigners, regardless of whether their governments have recog nized Huerta or not, will be safe In north ern Mexico. Secretary Bryan cancelled his engage ment to discuss tho situation with the house foreign affairs commltt'rn ably will enlighten some of the congress men on Mexico affairs privately. Efforts to head off any aeitatinn in that the executive departments might not be embarrassed in dealing with the affair, were evident. Sir Cecil SDring-Rlce. thn Itrltlah nm. bassador and Senor Rlano, tho Spanish ambassador, conferred- with Secretary Bryan, but the subject of the discussion was not divulged. Huerta'a latest note, asking the United States to reconsider the lifting, of .the arms embargo, was ex.- j pected here, today. Consul Letcher In El Pjuto. EL PASO. Tex.. 'JIarch ,2. The nur. cmptory halting of the Benton investi gating commission as It was about to take a train: the sudden aDDenranca In this city today of Marlon'Letcher, Amer ican consul at Chihuahua, and Oenercl Villa's admission of his opinion thnt austav Bauch. an American "was mur dered by his enemies." threw the rcfugeo colony here into a high stato of excite ment and anxiety today. Letcher came up on a special train and at once -went Into conference with Zach Lv Cobb, collector of customs and closely Identified with Secretary Bryan in Texas politics, and with George frr Carothers, special agent of the State de partment. Telegrams to Washington were dl. patched, but thelr contents were not mado known here. Members of the In vestigating commission did not know whether they were to proceed to Chihua hua or not. They have only a slight hope that such a mission would be pro ductive of evidence as to the manner of Benton's death, for belief is general that If the body Is not In nn advanced stata of decomposition it probably has been mutilated by quick lime or some other chemical. Letcher's train was held at Juarez ready for his own use for the return trip and to take the Benton commission if it Is determined that this part of tho program shall be carried out.
