NEW YORK. Jan. 25. In accordance with popular expectation, the directors of the United States Steel corporation an nounced today, after the close of the stock market, that dividends on the common shares of the corporation had reverted to the original rate of 4 per cent annually. The directors today declared a "regular" dividend of 1 per cent and an extra divi dend of of 1 per cent Dividends for the previous quarters have been: For the first quarter, H of 1 per cent; for the second, of 1 per cent; for the third, 1 per cent, and today's, 1 per cent Although an extra dividend had long been rumored In the market the behavior of the common share during the day and more particularly toward the close In no way bore out the facts. According to the best Information there was a division of opinion among the directors and the outcome was probably in doubt up to the time of the meeting. Rumor credits the Morgan faction In the board with having favored an extra dividend, but Chairman Gary declared after the meeting adjourned that action had been unanimous.

Fight Expected on Ship Subsidy Next Tuesday Minority Will Wage Warfare on Administration Bill Presented by Humphrey. WASHINGTON, Jan. 25. One of the most interesting contests of the session will oc cur on the floor of tho house. It Is pre dicted, when the administration ship sub tidy bill comes from committee and ' Is called up for paraage. The bill, which was Introduced by Representative Humphrey of Washington, Is now In the committee on merchant marine and fisheries, and will be finally considered there, probably, next Thursday. If Mr. Humphrey presses for a vote on, his bill at this time it will un doubtedly be passed by a majority vate of tho committee. Representative Splsht of Mississippi, rarklng democratic member of that com mittee and who has twice led the anti-ship rubsidy forces to victory, will again present a minority report and carry the flrht to the floor of the house. In the PIxty-slxth con grrss ship subsidy was defeated by but three votes, and, the feeling against It has been growing smaller and smaller with each year. This year no doubt is expressed that If tho measure passes the house it will easily bt put through the senate. President Taft is strongly urging the legislation, and Ire till of Representative Humphrey Is sup posed to embody the full views of the kd mlnlstratlon on tho subject. It Is stated that not a single amendment to the bill will bo mode In committee. Hitherto the subsidy legislation has coma from the committee on postofflces and post roads, but this year the proponents of the bill had It sent to the merchant marine committee. A number of new members were added by the speaker to the commit tee at tho organization of the present con- 8"- nd It 1 reported their views on """oiuj urre cunniurrra in connection with their other eligible qualities for the place. WqiR RIVER , CASE UP Effort Being; Made to Block the Drainage Proposition at Logan. Bis LOGAN, la., Jan. 25. (Speclat.)-The Sol dier river drainage case took precedence over all other cases on the docket here today and it is thought the case will oc cupy the entire week. The present ' Soldier river drainage pro Ject contemplates a complete diversion of the Soldier river beginning at a narrow point In the hilt of Jackson township and thence In a southwesterly direction through the lower end of Dray lake Into the Mis-, sourl river, a distance of f.f miles,- at an estimated cort of $100,000, with damages said to range from $50,000 to $(10,000, all of which is designed to , reclaim 32,000 acres of swamp end other lands subject to overflow during high waters of the Soldier. The objections, as set forth by Attorneys C. A. Bolter, Roodlfer & Arthur, who ap pear for the objectors, may be stated as follows: J. 8. Wattles, engineer In chance. Is not a disinterested engineer as contem plated by law; the present plan has been before the courts and decided against each time, and from such decisions there have been .appeals taken; that the present engineering project does pot follow the natural course of drainage of the Soldier; that the drainag. law ,1s 'unconstitutional In that It do i not provide damages or possible damagv-s cuused. or ''that may be caused, by, changing the course of a stream and raising a water level In the vicinity where there la no right of way; that the levees along the. channel to be constructed have none of the specifications required by modern 'engineering In the construction of levees. In reply the attorneys for the promoters, S. H. Cochran, Emmet Tinier, L. W. Fal lon and C. W. Kellogg, state that ths pres ent petitioners and supervisors have aoted under the new and not under the old drain age law; that the present plan of drainage by J. 8. Wattles is practically the same as the plan recommended by Engineer A. M. Munn, and C. G. Elliott United States expert drainage engineer; that the present 'plan Is by far less - expensive " than other plans suggested or recommended. Notwithstanding that the crops on the Soldlsr river drainage districts have been greatly damaged eaoh year during the last seven years, yet each plan of relief up to the present time has been defeated In litiga tions.
