REPORT IS FILED
MERCHANT MARINE AND FISH
ERIES QUESTION.
THE PROPOSED SENATE BILL
—
It is Scored in the Minority Report of
the House Committee—Passage of
Measure Would Result in Holding
Up the Government.
WASHINGTON — Representative
Stevens (Minn.) filed the favorable re
port authorized by the house commit
tee on merchant marine and fisheries
n an amended senate bill ‘to require
the employment of vessels of the Uni
ted States for public purposes.”
The bill requires all government
supplies transported by sea to lie car
ried in vessels either owned by the
government or flying the American
flag. The report bases the necessity
for the bill on the ground that it
never is safe to depend on foreigners
for the defense of our own country.
It says that the United States now
owns thirteen passenger and freight
transports, and that should these be
inadequate for the necessary trans
portation of government supplies and
troops, ships flying the American fag
only may be used in addition: that
the government cannot expect Ameri
can ships to be available in an emer
gency.
The views of the minority of the
committee, prepared by Representa
tive Lucking (Mich.) and signed by
Representatives Spight, Gottlden. .Mc
Dermott and Lucking, declare the bill
to be a step in the policy of subsidiz
ing our merchant marine, for which
for seven years the most active, per
sistent, influential and unblushing lob
by has been hounding the life out of
both branches of congress. The re
port says that outside of the goods
transported in vessels owned by the
government there was paid in freights
for such carrying In the year 1901,
14.523,954. and that “this carrying is
done principally to the Philippines,
and, like the major portion of all our
war and naval expenditures of the
present day, has been rendered nec
essary by the ill-advised subjugation
and retention of those islands.”
The report says the bill is a most
barefaced misappropriation of public
moneys, and adds:
“Of the seventeen vessels now en
gaged in this traffic on the Pacific, all
are manned exclusively (except offi
cers) \<7. Chinese sailors, who work
for about one-third or one-fourth the
wages that American sailors receive,
so that the American sailors have
been completely supplanted by these
Chinese in the very Pacific ocean
companies who are pressing the . ill
and who are, In part, to get its gratu
ities.”
The report concludes that “in some
respects tnis bill is worse than any
pronounced subsidy measure which
has been advocated in congress, be
cause it gives an absolute monopoly
to a few corporations and individuals
who may, and probably will, form a
combine and hold up the government
for ail it will stand.”
YOUNG CORBETT IS LOSER.
James Britt is Given the Decision in
the Twentieth Round.
RAN FRANCISCO—James Britt of
California was given the decision over
William Rothwell, better known as
“Young Corbett,” of Colorado, in a
twenty-round contest at Woodward's
pavilion Friday night. In the seven
teenth round Corbett's advantage was
apparent, but in that round Britt ral
lied and rained right and left blows on
various portions of Corbett’s anatomy,
forcing the champion to clinch to save
himself.
1 he styles of the two boxers were
entirely different. Britt fought for
the body most of the time, while Cor
bett devoted his attention to the head,
face and jaw. Britt weighed just 129
pounds, but Corbett's weight was not
made public, though it is understood
lie was at least a pound and a half
below the agreed weight—130 pounds.

Report Original Package Bill.
WASHINGTON. The house com
mittee on the judiciary on Friday au
thorized a favorable report on the
Hepburn and Dolliver bill, granting
the states police power over “original
packages" of intoxicating liquor com
ing into their borders as interstate
commerce. An amendment was adopt
ed stipulating that the bill should not

i WILL MOVE UNITED STATES SHIP
' Admiral Cooper Thinks New Chwang
No Place for the Helena.
WASHINGTON.—To Admiral Coop
er. in command of the naval forces
on the Asiatic station, has been left
the decision of the question whether
or not the Helena or some other
United States naval vessel is to be
kept at New Chwanfc as requested by
American interests there.
The Navy department has been In
formed by Admiral Cooper that he
has decided that the conditions are
not. such as to warrant him in detain
ing the Helena at New Chwang. If I
the town is attacked by the Japanese
navy the Helena would be in the line
of tire, and no neutral ship has a
right there if it can get away. The
Navy department has cabled him to
withdraw the ship, and it probably
will leave New Chwang for Shanghai
and start for Manila within the pres
ent week if the ice continues to soften
as rapidly as expected.
PERSONS RIDING ON PASSES.
Railroads Not Liable for Damages to
Deadheads.
WASHINGTON—The United States
supreme court again decided that per
sons traveling on railroads may not
secure damage in case of accident
when they ride on passes, and the de
cision went to the extent of applying
the principle to such passengers as
were not familiar with the contract
usually printed on the backs of the
passes.
The case decided was that of John
L). Booring and his wife, Meariing
Boering, against the Chesapeake
Beach Railroad company. Mrs. Boer
ing was injured in an accident on
the road while traveling on a pass
Issued to herself and her husband,
containing the usual stipulation of ex
emption from damage. It was urged
that she had not been made aware of
the stipulation, and that even if not
bahle on general principles, the com
pany must be so on account of her ig
norance. The court did not accept
this view.
CHINESE ARMS MENACE RUSSIA.
Forty Thousand Ttoods Drilled by
Foreigners Ready for Field.
PAIUS—The Figaro’s correspond
ent in Berlin telegraphs that a Ger
man officer who has just arrived there
from Mancnuria says serious opera
tions in the far east will not be be
gun before the -end of June. The
principal obstacle to Russian victory,
according to this officer, is the fart
that 40 000 Chinese troops, well
trained and with German and Japan
ese instructors, are menacing Russia's
lines of communication. Russia, with
the support of Germany, will protest
against this concentration of Chinese
troops.
According to the Tokio correspond
ent of the Petit PaHsienne official
confirmation lias been received of the
destruction of the Russian torpedo
boat destroyer Sheri at Port Arthur
by the explosion of a submarine mine.
The correspondent says that the
mikado yesterday bade adieu to 4b5
officers who were leaving for the
front.
Anarchists After Police.
ROME.—Another anarchist outrage
was attempted, but the infernal ma
chine, which was placed on th" win
dow’ sill of the residence of Police
Commissioner Rim t. was discovered
in time to prevent any damage being
done. The machine was id ntical
the one which was exploded March
18 outside the residence of Commis
sioner of Police Laurent, and which
wrecked the house, killed an artillery
officer. Major Papin, and fatally or
wounded half a dozen others.
German Consul Gives Counsel.
YIN KOVV—The German consul
from Tien Tsin, at a meeting of Ger
man citizens, counselled all residents
ol' that nationality that they remained
at New Chwang at their own risk and
that in event of loss of property re
covery was doubtful; also that in the
event that Russia was defeated the
recovery of losses would only be after
a long time, but if Japan was defeated
recovery would be sooner. British
residents will protest against the ab
sence of a warship from New Chwang.
Death Pleases Officials.
WASHINGTON. — Secretary Taft
and the officials of the War depart
ment openly express their gratifica
tion at the news of the death of Ma
cario Sakv. the so-called president of

JAPS’ ATTEMPT
ANOTHER MOVEMENT TO BOT
TLE PORT ARTHUR.
WHEN ATTEMPT WAS MADE
! Report that the Japanese Have Sunk
j Seven Merchant Steamers in the
Harbor — Demand in Connection
With Manchuria.
LONDON—The Daily Telegraph
published a dispatch from its Tokio
correspondent, which says:
“On the night of March 22 the Jap
anese fleet renewed the attempt to
bottle up Port Arthur. Sixteen war
ships escorted seven merchant steam
ers to the mouth of the harbor and j
under cover of the bombardment the
steamers were ran in and sunk in de
sired positions. Three hundred Jap
anese officers and bluejackets volun
teered for the duty. An official re- !
port is expected this evening.”
The Daily Telegraph's circumstan
tial report from the Tokio correspond
ent that Japan succeeeded in bottling
tip Port Arthur on the night of March
22 is not confirmed from any other
quarter. The special d’spatches to
the other morning papers announce |
no new developments, hut throw a few !
sidelights on the operations.
The Standard's Tien Tsin corre
spondent says that Viceroy Alexieff
renewed his demand for the with
drawal of all Chinese officers and sol
diers from Manchuria on the ground
that it would lie Impossible to conduct
the war properly.
The Daily Mail's correspondents
give from Japanese sources some de
tails of the condition of Port Arthur,
which were gathered during a recent j
visit of a Chinese junk there. It is j
asserted that a boom had been placed {
across the entrance to the roadstead, j
which was alive with mines, so de- :
fective and so carelessly laid as to ;
equally endanger both Russian and |
Japanese vessels. The damaged Rus
sian warships, these reports say, were >
repaired with such hnste that it is
dangerous for them to leave their an
chorage. Eight battleships and cruis
ers and ten torpedo boar destroyers
are now uninjured and often leave the
harbor, but never go far from the
forts.
Japanese naval officers praise the
quality of the Russian torpedo boat
destroyers, which, they confess, have
done excellent work, but they declare
that the Russian shells are badly |
fused and fail to explode, except when ,
they strike direct upon armor, and '
that their charges of guncotton are in
sufficient to cause serious damage.
The Daily Mail’s Shan Hai Kwan
correspondent says that the Japanese !
are secretly engaging Chinese to act
as irregular corps.
CODY MAKES DEPOSITION.
"Buffalo Bill” Testifies that His Wife
Tried to Poison Him.
DENVER—Colonel William F.
Cody ("Buffalo Bill”) made a depo
sition before a notary in this city
Wednesday in the action for divorce
which he has begun in Big Horn coun
ty, Wyoming. Colonel Cody will sail
for Europe shortly and will he absent j
from the country when his suit is j
tried. In the proceedings today Colo- |
nel Cody was interrogated by his own I
attorney and was subjected to an ex
amination by counsel for Mrs. Cody.
"Mrs. Cody tried to poison me three
years ago,” the colonel testified. "She j
had frequently threatened to do it.
We were visiting in Rochester, N. Y.,
during the holidays of 1900. and the
day after Christmas 1 was ill. I sup
posed the turkey and plum pudding |
did not agree with me. She said she |
would fix me up. She pretended to \
give me medicine. It was poison. It ]
almost finished me for 1 was tincon- i
scions for some time. I think it must
have been an overdose, for it made I
me vomit, and I suppose this saved ;
my life.”
Colonel Cody related many in- j
stances of his wife’s having humili- j
ated him at his "former home" in j
North Platte by her conduct toward :
guests.

PEOPLE FORGET PRINCIPLES.
President Schurman Talks of Lawless
ness in the United States.
NEW YORK—In an address at New
Rochelle President Schurman of Cor
nell university lias discussed what he
considers the true elements of na
tional greatness and expressed the
truth that so far as physical power Is
concerned our nation leaves almost
nothing to be desired. In referring to
our respect for law and our regard
for the rights of others, however, ho
said:
"There has been in the last few
years more lawlessness than those liv
ing in the present generation can re
member. Lynching seems to go on
apace. There are reasons given for
this, as a matter of course. Some say
it is because our children are not
taught religion in the schools; others
that it is due to the great immigra
tion to our shores. To me there
seems to be an entirely different rea
son for it. It is, I think, duo to a
certain amount of race depreciation—
I will not say race hatred, which some
how seems to be still very potent in
our blood. We still talk a great deal
of the superiority of the white race.
With an excess of passion, we still
talk of the inferiority of the people
with dark skins. It appears that the
tiger is still in our blood and woe to
the man who stirs him up.
"We seems already to have forgot
ten some of the great principles for
which our fathers died and we have
become compelled to hear in the last
few years derisive remarks about the
constitution.”
