AN AUXILIARY NAVY
Hanna's Speech on the Ship
Subsidy Biii.
SENATORS CONGRATULATE HIM
Debate on the Meanare Providing for
the Protection, of the PreI-
dent of the United
States.
WASHINGTON. March 6. A notable
speech was made In the Senate today by
Hanna on tho pendlne shipping- bill, which
lie discussed from the point of an Ameri
can business man. His arguments were
carefully prepared, he was always force
ful and earnest, and at times became elo
quent. He commanded the undivided at
tention of the Senate and of tho prallerles,
and when he clored he received the con
gratulations of many of his colleagues.
Early in the session Frye, in chargro of
the pending shipping bill, obtained an
agreement that the Senate should vote on
the measure and all pending amendments
at 3 P. M. Monday. March 17. that time
being entirely satisfactory to those op
posed to the bill.
Bef?e consideration of the shipping bill
was resumed, an extended debate occurred
on the measure providing for the protec
tion of the President of the United States.
Bacon took the ground that in Its present
shape the bill was an invasion of the Jur
isdiction of tho states, and that it ought
to be amended radically. Patterson, while
he agreed to the general proposition of
tho bill, urged that it ought not to pass in
it present form. No action on the bill
was taken.
The Proceedings.
At the conclusion of the routine
business consideration was begun of the
bill providing for the protection of the
President of the United States. Pending
discussion of the bill, Frye, in charge
of the shipping bill, asked unanimous con
cent that -a final vote upon that bill and
oil amendments be taken on Monday,
March 17, at 3 P. M. Without comment,
the Senate agreed to the request.
Bacon, a member of the Judiciary
committee, then discussed the bill for the
protection of thq President. It was, he
thought, a very grave question, and he did
not believe the measure ought to be passed
without amendment. In view of the recent
calamity which has befallen tho Nation
in the assassination of President McKin
ley, the subject of the pending bill was a
difficult one to discuss. He paid a high
was the most "amiable, v courteous and
pleasant man I ever have met in high sta
tion," and from hhn he had always re
ceived the kindest consideration.
Bacon believed the proposed law was un
necessary.and did not provide a more cer
tain punishment for the assassin than was
provided now in the state laws. The
world, he insisted, nas not large enough
for the criminal to get bejond the reach
of the law, and there was no place secret
enough in which to hide himself from
avenging Justice. He urged that the bill
indicated there was not sufficient reliance
upon the criminal laws of tho several
states.
Deptw pointed out that in the state
laws there -was no differentiation between
tho assassination of the President of the
United States and that of any other per
son, and an attempt at assassination was
not punlshablo -with death in any state, as
th pending bill provided.
Piatt suggested that some states had
laws against capital punishment.
Bacon, continuing, said that tho bill In
volved tho right and propriety of tho Fed
eral Government to enforce a law within
a state different from any law on the stat
ui e-books of the state. So far as the an
archist was concerned, the death penalty
was not a deterrent against the crime of
assassination, as the anarchist wa3 will
ing to sacrifice his own life.
Hoar interrupted to say that the pend
ing bill was proper because the assassina
tion or attempted assassination of the
President was an interruption of the Gov
ernment, and It was vitally important to
the Government that such interruption
should not occur.
Bacon urged that the bl.- at least ought
to be amended In accordance with his
proposition, already offered, so that it
should be shown that the crime was
against the President, '"because of his of
ficial position or for the purpose of de
stroying the Government or impairing the
execution of its Constitutional powers."
B&con said, the bill was practically on
enlargement of tho law of treason, and
proposed to make treason of something
that under the Constitution was not trea
son. Patterson suggested that a most cm
barrasrtng situation would have arisen
had the assassination of President Mc
Kinley, for instance, occurred in the State
of Iowa, wiere capital punishment is not
permissible. It would have resulted, he
believed, in the state "being disgraced by
mob law, as no American, ho thought,
would have been satisfied with mere im
prisonment for the assassination of Presi
dent McKlnley. He agreed with the main
purpose of tho bill. Patterson opposed
some of the provisions of the pending
measure, because they proposed to desig
nate as crimes things not now considered
as crimes, end suggested that the enact
ment and enforcement of those provisions
might work a serious hardship upon a
person or persons.
At the conclusion of Patterson's remarks
Clay resumed his speech on the shipping
bill, began yesterday. He predicted the
complete failure of the pending measure.
Natural charges alone, he argued, could
increase tho foreign carrying trade of the
United States.
Hanna then addressed the Senate, his
remarks being principally in answer to
Clay's speech of yesterday. He said that
when Clay quoted from Frye's remarks
that, all there was In this question which
required explanation was embraced in the
one question of labor, he was correct. "I
stand by, that proposition, but I go fur
ther. The ore in the ground is worth
about 25 cents a ton. After it was touched
by the hand of man it was labor. Ninety
five per cent of the cost of a Bhip built
in American shipyards, or in any ehipyafd
is purely labor. Tho cost of the construc
tion of a ship in the United States as
against that in either England, Germany
or France simply measures the differ
ence of wages and the efficiency of Ameri
can labor.
Hanna declared that tho merchant ma
rine was the only Industry in the United
States which has not been given the fos
tering care of this Government.
"Will anybody deny," said he, "the im
portance, the absolute necessity, of having
an auxiliary for our Navy in the form of
a merchant marine, shaped upon the di
rection of the Navy Department, and in
time of war absolutely In the hands and
under the control of rthe President of the
United States to-Jise it in the most ef
fective manner?'
Hanna said that Jf tho United States
failed to profit by the experience of the
older countries of Europe, who have
adopted a policy in reference to maritime
matters, it would moke a most serious
mistake. Eiery merchant ship construct
ed In foreign countries was meant to be a
shlp-of-war In time of need. Hanna cited
the feeling of uneasiness along the At
lantic Coast at the beginning of hostilities
with Spain, and the relief which was ex
perienced when four steamers of the
American Line were called by the Secre
tary of the Navy to perform picket serv
ice. He Insisted that it was as Important
u buww qucsuuu us uu economic policy i
to carry with the expenditure for build
ing up the Navy the expenditure for an
auxiliary Navy and merchant marine.
There Is something more in this trans
portation question than merely carrying
mail matter, he said; there is more In
it than dollars and cents to the United
States. He wou4d like It, he said, to be
discussed above party considerations, be
cause every one felt alike pride in our
country's advancement and In Its devel
opment, and whatever Is best for the In
terests and safety and the perpetuity of
our Institutions is beit for all of us.
Tillman interrupted to ask for informa
tion in regard to the reports that the
Morgan syndicate had bought two or
three of the European line steamers.
"You must ask somebody who knows,"
replied Hanna. "I do not know anything
about It."
"It was only reported you knew," sug
gested Tillman, "and I thought that the
Senator, being In touch with that class
of people "
"Why does the Senator say I am in
touch with them?" interjected Hanna.
Tillman The Senator is a man engaged
in shipping. Is he not?
"On tho Great Lakes, yes," replied
Hanna, "but why does the Senator as-
r--
GOVERNOR W.
WHO WELCOMED PRINCE IIEXR Y
sume that I know what Morgan has
done?"
"I thought the Senator and Mr. Morgan
were friends," replied Tillman.
"I know nothing about the purchase of
tho Leyland Line by J. P. Morgan & Co.,"
said Hanna, "any more than the Senator
does. That is simply the Investment of
American capital. Under the provisions
of this bill not a single one of those ves
sels ever will come under an American
register or an American flag. Capital
seeks only investment from which It can
get returns."
"If that bo true," inquired Tillman,
"why did the German Emperor not go to
England to get his yacht built, instead of
coming to this country?"
Hanna said there were some things he
could not answer, but he thought Prince
Henry was glad the Emperor did not do
It. "Perhaps tho Senator has not heard
of the success and prestige of America
in the yachting line," suggested Hanna,
amid laughter. Tho German Emperor, he
said, wanted the best yacht made, and,
therefore, he came here.
Tillman wanted to know what kind of
yacht it was, and Depew described it as
a sailing racing machine of the same type
as beat the two Shamrocks.
Hanna declared that not an American
shipyard had a contract for another mer
chant vessel after the nine or 10 vessels
now under contract were finished. Every
body knows, continued Hanna, that the
United States Is now engaged In a hand-to-hand
contest with foreign nations to
secure the commerce of the Orient, and
that tho United States- has been foremost
and steadfast In its policy to secure the
markets of China and hold them as an
open door. The Philippine Archipelago
was the key to the Orient, said he, and
when it had become a naval station sur
rounded by all the protection that a mari
time fleet would need. It would becomo a
factor In our commercial conditions in the
Orient.
Hanna then said it was the purposo of
the bill, under tho postal system, to
establish a line on the Atlantic Coast of
South America. England had gained her
supremacy In the markets of the world
by pursuing tho policy of establishing di
rect communication. "Personal contact,"
he said, "Is what brings results, and Eng
land, Germany and France are now ener
getically at work to put in tho connect
ing link between the Pacific and the Ori
ent." He spoke of tho benefit that the passage
of the bill would bring as a result of In
creased trade with South American coun
tries, saying that trade now went by way
of Liverpool and Hamburg In foreign
ships, and thence was trans-ehipped to
South American shlp. By carrying
American goods in American ships, there
would be an Increase of American trade.
In closing Hanna again adverted to the
question of the cost of labor, maintaining
that wages in this country averaged 50
per cent higher than in European coun
tries. The cost of ships built In the
United States was from 2S per cent to 30
per cent higher than those built In Great
Britain, the difference -Injirlce of labor
making the difference In cbst. The dif
ference in the cost of operating American
and foreign ships was about 27 per cent,
the higher rates being paid on American
vessels. He urged that the pending meas
ure be enacted into law as the one way
to demonstrate to the satisfaction of all
that It would be beneficent In. its opera
tions. At the conclusion of Hanna's speech
Penrose offered a resolution expressing
the sorrow of the Senate at tho death of
Representative Rufus K. Polk, of Penn
sylvania, and providing for the appoint
ment of a committee of Senators to at
tend the funeral. The resolution was
adopted and the president named Penrose,
Quay. Culberson, Carmack, Gamble and
Patterson as the committee. As an addi
tional mark of respect tho Senate then,
at 4:15 P. M., adjourned.

town of Calnta, Province of Marong, Lu
zon, who was recently captured by the in

stabulary March 3 they secured, according
to Senor Ampll, 12 Remington rifles and
eight revolvers. Their principal camp Is

Wonien Cannot Learn Chinese.
NEW YORK, March 6. That women are
Incapable of mastering the Chinese lan
guage was a statement made by Herbert

by the new Dean Lung Department of
Chinese at Columbia, for the establish
ment of which an unknown person gave.
5200.000. More than half the audience was
composed of women, and this proved

Giles' remarks were not exactly compli
mentary. Ho said, foi example, that the
Chinese symbol for treachery was woman.

$10,000. In applying for this reduction. Mr.
Vanderbllt introduced something of an in
novation instead of pleading non-residence,

while he was worth all that the assess
ment called for, his wealth principally is
In real estate and In securities, which

MAINE'S CELERY
COMPOUND
A Case Where the Great Medi
cine Bestowed Vlaor and
Health After Months
of Weakness and
Suffering.
Observing and intelligent women who
have used Palne's Celery Compound have
noted well the fact that as a Spring med
icine it quickly regulates the bowels,
clears the whites of the eyes of that com
mon jaundiced look, and gives a bloom of
health to the face that It never pos
sessed before. Another important proof of
the invigorating power of Palne's Celery
Compound. Is its effect on the pulse, which
becomes full, firm and regular. Weak,
exhausted, nervous. Irritable and worried
women find that Palne's Celery Compound
counteracts the exhausting strain of work
and worry by its strons Inducement to the
delicate tissues to take more nourishment.
It induces tho nerves and brain to feed
themselves more liberally, and It enriches
the blood and regulates the flow.
Mrs. Nellie Morse Taylor, Solon, O ,
3ends the following testimonial letter for
the benefit of weak and run-down women:
'3orae years ago I had a severe attack
of tho grippe, which loft my head and
spine In a very bad shape. Sometimes I
thought I should lose my mind, I was so
nervous. I could not sleep more than two
hours a night. After a year with the
doctor I had run down so I weighed only
116 pounds. I then began on Palne's Cel
ery Compound, and that great medicine
cured me and built mo up to 150 pounds.
I would not be alive today had it not been
for the Compound. It cures all nerve
troubles."

MANILA MARKETS DULL.
Llftht Demand for Flour and Lum
ber at Present.
The flour and lumber market at Manila is
dull at present, according to a citizen who
wrote from there February 6. His name
Is. withheld at his own request for busi
ness reasons. He says: "I And Manila
Is not a good flour market. The Govern
ment buys on the Coast for the soldiers,
and the commercial or domestic demand
Is not large.
"There Is a large stock of Oregon pine
In Manila, and it will be perhaps three
months or longer before this is used.
"The Government will soon begin build
ing a fine military post at Manila. This
will tako a large quantity of lumber.
When the specifications are ready tho
Quartermaster here will send them to the
Quartermaster-General in Washington,
who will probably send them to the Quar
termaster In Seattle, with Instructions to
invito bids on the lumber. It Is barely
possible that bids -will bo asked for in
Portland, but not probable."
The secretary of the Portland Board of
Trade has written to Senator Mitchell to

show for this city in the competition for
the lumber contracts.
