the railroads are entitled to mote
revenue, how shall It be secured?"
Returning to a description of his testi
mony, he declsred he waa congratulated
upon It by attorneys and representatives
of many Interests. Mr. Brandals and he
participated- in rros examination of
railroad witnesses, and their relatione
"were most friendly."
During the progress of the case Mr.
Tnorn said two attorneys sought to
show the adequacy of tha railroad's rev.
nue ss a whole, but th client of both
compelled them to abandon that course,
He read from Brandals' brief to show
Mr. Brandeis knew two point were be
fore th commission for consideration
first, adequacy of th revenue, and, eec
end, If Inadequate, how additional reve
nue could b secured.
Braadela Arranges tm Close,
When It came lime for oral argument
of th 1911 case, Mr. Thorn aald Mr.
Brandeis outlined to him how the argu
ments would b made,
"Mr. Brandeis said to me," aald Mr.
Thorne, '"In stibntsnre this: 'Tou snd I
have tried to master this rase as a whole.
the representatives of th shipper are
chiefly Interested In thlr pclflo commo
dities and I have talked It over with
Chairman Harlan. It Is the desire of the
commission that you open the argument
for the public and I will close. Betwene
will rome th other arguments, tha rail
road opening and closing the whole
esse.' I said to Mr. Brandel that It
would be Impossible for me to open at
that time because I waa physically un
able, and also that I wanted to follow
the attorneys for the shippers. I waa
afraid that men Interested In special com
modities might be tempted to concede
the main leaue that th railroads needed
more revenue, but that It ahould not
apply to their particular commodity.
Mr- Brandeis misunderstood th pur-
pert of my request and thought I was
desirous of replacing him. H said that
I could make my opening statement and
an additional argument after th shipper.
I said I only wanted to make on argtie
ment. Then he said. "Very wall, we'll
leave It to th commission whether yeu
or X shall clo.' I assured htm 1 had no
desire to replace him. that I was not a
particle afraid of him. but ot persons
Interested In particular commodities.
Then h said b thought h could ar
range for me to follow th shippers, and
he did so."
When he first received a eopy of Mr.
Brandeis brief Mr. Thorn said hs was
surprised to find nothing In It about th
adequacy of rate. He aaked Mr. Bran
dela what his position wss to be and th
tatter responded he believed some of the
roads were pot earning enough money,
and he thougM conditions were unsatis

Heal Petat Its Case looeeded.
At th opening of Mr. Brandeis' oral
argument he made this statement," be
gan Mr. Thorne. reading from the record
'On th whole th net Income and net
