eagerness to be present.
The Republic will steam to Brook
lyn, where the Bushwick Association,
a Brooklyn organization, will have
charge of the reception "for"the" bal
ance of the day. There will be a fire

A committee of 50 Brooklynites
worked, today with the members of
the committee from the'Arct'c club
perfecting the final details.
"We feel that the eyes of the world
are upon us and no effort is being
spared to make Dr. Cook's reception
a rousing success, surpassing even
that which he received at Copenha
gen", declared Theodore Yonkers,
chairman of the committee.
Acting. Mayor Patrick McGowan

'More than 3,000 physicians, many
of them personal friends of Dr. Cook,
are planning an individual reception

will be whirled away in a touring
car to the Bushwick club house. He
has been invited to be the guest of
the club during his stay in Brooklyn
and a number of festivities will be
tendered in his honor there. One
feature of the day will be a parade.
Practically every automobile owner
in the Williamsburg section of Brook
lyn has been requested to turn out for
a parade. The Bushwick club has
invited all the residents along the
line of march to decorate their homes
and this wish was generally carried
out today.
According to the present plan Dr.
Cook will reach the Bushwick tomor
row afternoon at 2 o'clock. The club
house which is one of the finest in
Brooklyn has been decorated for the
occasion. The interior Is a mass of
flags, bunting and flowers, and pic
tures of Dr. Cook adorn the walls.
Appropriate inscriptions were placed'
in conspicuous positions today.
" There' will be an Informal recep
tion through the afternoon In the
club house when Dr. Cook will meet
many old-time neighbors and friends.
An electric arch with the word "Wel
come" spelled in incandescent lights
has been constructed across the street
in front of the club house. A small
building at Myrtle and Bushwick ave
nue, right near the former home of
the explorer, has been transformed
into the semblance of an Esquimaux
hut and has been fittingly adorned.
Brooklyn took the lead in the
preparations for the big welcome.
Honors and medals will be show
ered upon the explorer in his former
home. Nearly every society in the
city, scientific, social, civic and pro
fessional united to out-do the wel
come which was flrst tendered at
Copenhagen.
Dr. Roswell Stebblns, a lifelong
friend of Cook, chairman of the ex
ecutive committee of the Arctic club,
today said that the speed of the Oscar
II had been reduced so that" she
would not arrive until schedule time
tomorrow morning, thus insuring the
consummation of the plans mapped
out.
Death of Mr. Walter Ijee.
Walter Lee, son of Mr. W. C. Lee.

terstate commission, finding a rate to
be unreasonable and unduly discrim
inatory, might change the rate and
fix up one that would be fair. The
suggestion of the message was fol
lowed by the introduction of a bill
in the house.. After a long acrlmon
'ous fight the bill passed almost un
animously." "The ch ef feature of the 'new au
thority of the commission, after de
termining that an existing rate com
plained of was unreasonable was to
say what would be a reasonable rate.
In other words, to fix the rate if the
rate complained of was unjust. The
rate bill has now been in operation
some three years and it is admitted
that it has not furnished the relief
1 against unduly discriminatory rates
with the expedition and effectiveness
I which were expected. ' '
"The republican platform promis
ed legislation in aid of enforcing the
interstate Commerce law and I have
; been engaged in the consideration of
what I ought to recommend to con
gress in order to comply with that
promise. An examination of the de
cisions of the commerce commission
and the report to the courts by way
of temporary injunctions fully justify
the conclusion that one of the defects
fof the present Interstate Commerce
law is the delay entailed by litigation.
Something must be done to reduce
this delay so that the decision of the
courts shall be prompt, final and ef
fective. It is proposed now by a num
ber of gentlemen of my cabinet who
have conferred with some members of
the Interstate Commerce Commission
to facilitate these appeals from the
commission by the creation of a sep
arate Interstate Commission of five
members which shall sit in Washing
ton and which should be the court to
which petitions to set aside or nulli
fy the order of the Interstate Com
merce Commission can be made. And
it Is proposed to allow a single judge
to make an order staying the Inter
State Commerce Commission but six
ty days, and thereafter that no injunc
tion shall be allowed against the or
der of the commission unless granted
by the whole court of five members.
I know what objection will be made
to the creation of this court. In one
of the bills originally introduced such
a separate court was provided for but
the provisions was defeated. A tar
iff court has been provided for In the
new tariff bill to consist of five mem
bers, whose judgment should be final
on all questions arising under the ad
ministration of the tariff. I am
strongly inclined, to think that a simi
lar court, except that an appeal ought
to lie from it to the supreme court,
will serve the purpose of expedition ,
and the dispatch of business in re
spect to the order of the commission.
"A second change in the Interstate
Commerce law ought to give to the
commission the power to hear and en
tertain complaints against unjust
classification of merchandise for
transportation. The classification of
merchandise is just as Important in
determining the expense as is the fix
ing of the rates, because rates are !
fixed according to classes and if an
article is classed in one class this de
termines the rate at which that ar
ticle is to be carried.
"It Is perfectly clear that by in
cluding articles In the same class
which ought to pay different rates, a
railroad can commit exactly the same
kind of injustice as it would by im
posing an exorbitant rate as to any
class. The Interstate Commerce
Commission has round great eniDar-
rassment in the proper administration
of the law In the fact that it is limit
ed In its investigations only to those
rates which are specifically complain
ed of by a shipper or some other in
terested person. It has found that In
the examination of one rate com-
plained of and the discovery that it isi
unjust, there are many other rates
connected with this rate equally un-.not less than the reasonable market
just that if it had the power of init-i value for bonds, such price being
lating complaints of itself it could patd either in cash or in property or
promptly reach and re-adjust and fix , services, and if in property or ser
to the benefit of persons who have not vices, then the fair value thereof as
seen fit or have not had the courage
or money to contest the fairness and
correctness of the rates.
"It would not seem from the ex-
perience of the commission that the beginning, we shall gradually abolish
extension of power to institute com-' that evil which is involved in the
plaints of its own Is necessary to union of competing roads, by one
make the work truly effective. The, road's owning the stock of another;
proper method of legislation is to and we shall prevent the over-issue
pass the bill and if it does not operate 0f stock and bonds so as to prevent
as fully in the direction Intended as watering and keep the railroad eftl
we had hoped, then amend the bill so' cient for the service for which it was
as to improve it in . that direction.
Under the Interstate Commerce law
a new rate classification Is to be filed
wlth the commission. It is proposed
now to authorize the commission to
postpone the date that said new rate(
classification Is to take effect, provid-,
ed that within thirty days of the days
of the order a complaint be filed that
,8uch rate or classification is unreas-
onable or unjust, or provided, Becond,

"Another most Important amend
ment of the Interstate Commerce law
part 4, was specifically promised in
the platform is a prohibition against
any interstate railroad company ac
quiring stock in any competing rail
road in the future, and a further pro
vision that no railroad engaged In
interstate commerce shall after a cer
tain date hold stock in a competing
railroad, and the further amendments
. tnat after tne passage of the amend
ln act no railroad company engaged
in interstate commerce shall issue
anv additional stock or bonds or
other obligations, except with the ap
proval of the commission, based upon
a finding by the commission that the
same are issued, first, for a purpose
authorized by law; and, second, for a
. Drice not less than par for stock and
' determined by the commission.
"By these provisions enforced with
reason and drawn with a view not to
be too drastic with railroads in the
intended.
"These suggested amendments to
the interstate commerce law will en-
trust to the Interstate Commerce
Commission considerably more power
than that tribunal has at present, but
we have entered upon a course of
regulating railroads. As the laws
which we nassed have not been as
effective for the purpose as it was
hoped, we must cont'nue to introduce
amendments to bring about a law

Hayward. the last survivor of the
second Hull expedition to find the
North Pole, died here Sunday at the
home of his daughter.
In 1864 when Hall made his second
dash for the North Pole, Mr. Hayward
went with the explorer.
For five years ho endured the fearful
hardships of an Arctic expedition, and.
In 1S69, when' Hall and his band re
turned, Mr. Hayward expressed him
self us contented with his share of
Arctic exploration.
When Cook and Peary proclaimed
their discovery, Mr. Hay w ml was still
able to read the accounts and took
keen interest. He did not. however,
think it possible to reach the pole
because of the fearful hardships nt
such a Journey, a. id expressed him
self as unconvinced as Ao the t.uth of
the reported discoveries.
