To BENEFIT American ships.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2-The special
committee appointed to investigate the
subject of American shipping and the
re.establishment of an American mer-
chant marine, is actively engaged in the
taking of testimony and the considera-
tion of measures proposed to accomplish
the desired end. 1t is believed now
that the committee will be able to
agree on some bill that will grant
American ship-builders modicum at
least of the long.sought relief. The
proposition now being considered by the
committee is one introduced in the
House and Senate by the California
Representatives. 1t proposed giving
the owners of American ships to engage
in foreign trade, built wholly of Ameri-
can material, rebate or bounty equal
to the sum that would have been re-
ouired to pay duties on the articles that
would have been imported to enter into
the construction Of such ships. The re-
bate does not 20 to the builders, but to
the owner of the vessel. Page, as a
member of the committee and one of the
proposers of this scheme, says that it
will in all probability be agreed to by
the committee. MIR. Cox OF New York
reserves the righ. to Offer in the House
an amendment providing for the intro.
duction free Of duty of ali articles en-
tering into the manufacture of ships. |
This amendpent will be opposed by a
ma iority of the committee. The ques.
tion of the repeal of the tonnage tax and
State municipal tax on American ves-
sels, has not yet been considered. Sen
ator Vest is said t. doubt the Constitu-
tional power of Congress to interdict
the levying of taxes by State on NUM-
cipal governments. Many members of
the committee, however, think that the
COVER vested in Congress to regulate
commerce gives due authority to pro.
libit State or municipal taxes where
such taxes interfere with the develop
nent of national commerce. 1t Is ar
yued negatively that if Senator Vests
position is correct that the municipality

Page says that the present outlook ls
cry favorable for the passage of some
ills this session that will tend to res
ore American shipping.

DUBLIN, Dec. l2-At meeting at
Mallow to establish a branch of the
National League, Thomas O'Brien said
that before man could open his lips in
Ireland he must read through all the
musty statutes enacted since the cru
sades.
The Court of appeals has confirmed
the decision restraining the Land Cor
poration of Ireland from paying
dividends on shares ont of the capital
raised by issuing shares. The decision,
it is expected, will have serious effect
on kavanaugh's scheme for counteract-
ing the objects of the Land League.

CHICAGO, Dec. IA reporter this
afternoon interviewed Jim Elliott, who
is to fight Allen in the coming contest.
He started off with the assertion that
he would Sight any man in the world
with naked fists for 81, 500, and would
not bar any one. Sullivan he did not
consider the champion at all. His es-
timation of Sullivan was that he was
the best man he knew with gloves, and
admits that Sullivan is better with
gloves than himself. Elliott says he
does not believe Sullivan or any other
man can knock him out in four rounds,
or, in fact, in any number. Fox, it is
said, is willing to match Allen against
Sullivan at any time for 81 900. Ell
lott says he will return to Chicago after
his fight with Allen. His fight with
Allen takes place on the 23i instant.
The place where the fight will take
place will be decided next Thursday.
