Washington Dec 14 For nearly
three hours yesterday Hanna O ad
dressed the senate upon the pending

of the best Informed public mi ou the
question his speech was given un
usually close attention Senators on
both sides of the chambor remained
In their seats throughout the delivery
of the address He spoke without
manuscript nnd his delivery nt all
times was forcible and intense
In opening his address Hanna snid
that the remarks of Clay hail brought
Into question the motives of thone who
had assisted in the preparation of tho
pending nieusure As a member of the
commlttoe on commerce he felt It
his right and duty to explain the work
of those committees In conclusion
he said
For myself I resent the Imputntlon thnt
any other motive than those of Interest In
our country nnd good public policy actuated
the committees In my appeal to the Amer
ican people for the re establishment of the
groat ship building Industry I want to put
It on higher grounds than mere dollars and
fents It U away and beyond that point in
patriotism and pride In our notional life
As to the popularity or unpopularity of this
measure I stand hore to say that every line
of It Is In the Interest of the American peo
ple Upon that baali I make my appeal
for Its passage and leave the qutstlou la
