It Is tha intention to frame the bill so that the enlarged commission will have Jurisdiction over light- and power com panies, water companies, gas companies, streetcar companies and ail corporations which deal in publio service whether they confine their activities within -the limits of a city, or whetner they engage in business oyer the state at large. Aside from the regulation of the rail roads of the state under the provisions o the present railroaa commission, the great number of publio utility and pub lic service . corporations In the atate have no regulation other than the gen eral statutes. The publio service com mission, as Intended by Senator Malar key, will put' all such corporations un der the general supervision of the new and enlarged commission,' The present indications are that the press of public sentiment will secure the passage of the bill neither In its original or iff an amended form, but It is believed that a bitter fight will 4be made by the- com bined" corporate Influences of the state against the measure. .

They are a deliberate manipulation of the market Prices .were fictitious when they reached the-top 'But -they . were arbitrarily forced there by the interests.
