A recent dispatch from Berlin gives the
information that German shIpowners have
rejected the proposed impost duties on
foreign ships trading in German harbors.
The dispatch further says severely as
shipowners suffer from the protective
tariff they have just declared at Dantzig
that the proposition to help them by
impost duties on foreign ships is not
acceptable" They tprobably desire q
subsidy such as vas advocated by Senator
Blaine to assist American ship owners q
short timeiago in the United States senate.
Protective tariff invariabIe leads to sub
sidizing schemes in order to prevent a
total destruction of the shipping interest.
while with tariff for revenue only such
legal robberies are not found necessary.
