It is Eapectsd That the Inquiry Will Result in Showing That tha Elevators, Railroads and Boards of Trada Ara in a Combine. (Special to The Journal.) Oct SI. It la very likely that the autumn session of the English parliament which opened today, will br the moat Important in the hlatory ot British legislation. Not only are many Important bills up for consideration, hut this session s ill probably mark the beginning of a determined effort on the part of the labor leaders to effect the annihilation of the house of lords and all hereditary government Whether they will accomplish the result desired Is problematical, but they will attempt it Just the same. For years the house of commons has fretted and chafed under the rule of the nobility, whose sole aim in recent years seems to have been the checking of useful legislation. The reverence which obtains among the British for any one with a title has. within the past few years, diminished to a remarkable extent, and la now rapidly disappearing aa the result of recent scandalous revelations concerning the tilled class, until radical action seems but a question of short Intervening time. Tha decision In the case uf the marquis of Townsend, whom the courts decided unlit to manage hla own business, but who was decided as perfectly capable of sitting as a member of the houae of lords to help make laws for hla country, aeema to have been one of the straws that has helped to break the back of British conservatism, and love for the superior virtues of those of noble lineage. Just when the outbreak will occur cannot be forecasted at this time, but that tha members of the house of lords will soon be fighting for the very existence of the venerable body, no one at all familiar with conditions, will deny. Impertant Measures. Among the more Important business to be considered at this session are the following measures Education Sent to the houae of lords at the last session and read the second time.

Beal of the National Grain and Elevator tMiilcd that because ha belonged to no board of trade, and because ne btiugm his grain direct from the farmers, his elevator was blacklisted by the railroads and the regulars" refused to trade with him. He declared the regulars have formed a cumplnatlon to lower prices. The evidenee that is being adduced shows that a grain combination exists between elevator men and the railroads, and it is thought that before the tnqulry la ended there will be ample testimony to connect the boards of trade in Chicago and other cities, where grain exchanges are maintained, with being a party to a gigantic plan to manipulate prices on wheat and other cen als. irrespective of the laws of supply and drntHtid. E. W. Shields said Ills Ann was alii wed the use of gin hi tanks lre by the Milwaukee railroad, and he protested that it would be of no service to him. He stated that he had received notice from the rhllnutd that low rates would be abolished and that he bought He also stated that advantageously. when he learned rates were to be raised, he went on the floor of the Chicago exchange and bold 400,000 bushele to Armour, and an hour after the raise of rates was posted. LONDON, only. Trades Dispute Bill Paaaed through committee in commons only. Merchant shipping bill: Passed by grand committee. Plural voting bill: In committee stage In the Houae of Commons. Each of these will be pushed forward as quickly aa poaslble. About thirty other measures of lesser Importance are also down for consideration. Both Will Bo Buay. Aside from the fight to be made by the labor party representatives, the legislative program la sufficient to houses buay for several keep both months to coma. The education bill alone will involve a fierce and protracted battle between the two hostile houses. The trades disputes and plural voting measures are also certain to evoke a lively conflict.
