rqpds. I t waa a joint resolution, and
mast be passed by the bouse and
signed by the president before it be­
comes effective.
The adoption of the
resolution was preceded by a speech by
Tillman, in which he
practically
charged that the administration was
not proceeding in good faith to secure
railroad legislation, because he waa not
satisfied with tbe president’ s advisers.
Among these be mentioned Secretary
Root and Senator Knox.
•
Lodge also spoke at length on tbe
railroad question.
H e delivered a
carefully prepared speech, in which
he took a position for gqvernmental
regulation of rates, bat advised the ut­
most caution againet too radical action.
He expressed the opinion that tbe giv-
ing of rebates was practically tbe only
evil existing in connection with tbe
railroad systems of the country.
