- found in the fourth section, which
amends section 15 of the interstate
commerce law so as tp accomplish this
result. Thia section directa the com
mission to investigate complaints of
unjust and unreasonable charges on the
part of common carriers in the trans
portation of poisons or property, or of
regulations or practicea affecting such
charges. It also authorizes an inquiry
as to whether the rates or practices are
"unjustly discriminatory or unduly
preferential or prejudicial, or otherwise
in violation of the act," and, in case
any of theae conditions are found to
exist, Che commission is empowered
to determine and prescribe what will
be the just and reasonable maximum
rate, and what regulation or practice is
just, reasonable and fair.
Further, authority is given the com
mission to enforce its orders, and they
aro to go into effect within 30" days and
continue in force for two years unless
suspended, modified or Bet aside by the
commission or by a court of compotent
jurisdiction.
A penalty of $5,000 for each offense
in disobedience of the order is imposed,
and the penalty is to accumulate at the
rate of $5,000 a day in case of continu
ous violation. Orders other than those
for money payments ate to be enforced
by the federal courts through writs of
mandamus or injunction, and, in case
of appeal to the supreme court, these
cases are to be given preference over
all others exceptthoae of a criminal
character.
The bill was amended by the senate
so as to give the United States circuit
courts jurisdiction to entertain suits
brought to annul or change tho orders
of the commission and to provide
againat the granting of interlocutory
decrees without bearing and making
appeals from such orders directto the
supreme court.

would happen to the aauednct. con
duits, pipes and valves, buried in the
concrete walla, naed for filling and
emptying tho locks, cannot bo well
conjectured."
It is stated that ships of all classes
could be passed through the sea level
canal in 8 hours less than tho time
that would be. consumed in passing
ships through locks alone. The cost of
annual maintenance is estimated at
$1,840,000 for the eea level and $2,-
330,000 for the lock type. A sea level
canal free from all obstacles could pass
100 warships in less than a day. Naval
commanders and commercial shipmas
ters oppose locks.
The majority argues that an enemy
could destroy a lock canal much easier
than a sea level canal with explosives.
The cost of a sea level canal 1b estimat
ed at $250,000,000, while the total cost
of the lock canal would be at leaBt
$190,000,000, and the cost of trans
forming the latter into a sea level canal
would be $200,000,000. Tho conclu
sion of the majority is "that the sea
level canal can be realized in 10 or 12
years at a cost not exceeding $60,000,
000 above that required by the con
struction of the mnHilock canal pro
posed by the minority."
