AMERICAN SHIPPING.

The inquiry into the decline of American
shipping has so far elected little information
not previously known. The evidence volun-
teered has been chiefly on the part of those
representing Interests likely to be affected by
any change in the law, and has consequently
been directed rather to their protection than
the public information.
How it is that American shipping has fallen
off from S2.9 per cent of the National exports
and Imports carried in our vessels in 1910 to
1915 in 1882 is only q question of practical
interest in so far as it disrl0ses the means
whereby this industry may be reestablished.
With the exception of the five years from
1865 to 1870 the decadence has been
steady and gradual until the present
year, which shows the lowest percentage on
the list. A misconception, however, may arise
CD these figures unless we bear in mind the
enormous increase in the export and import
trade over the same period In order to
obtain a just view of the situation we must
compare the good years of different epochs.
Taking 1855, which was admitted to be the
zenith of the shipping trade, we find that the
United States in that year possessed meTcan-
tile marine of 2S.l1S ships and tonnage of
about 100000 tons. In 1880, year in
which our foreign trade felt the full
effect of two years of previous home
prosperity, we, possessed 30.S02 vessels, with a
tonnage of 4,53S,000 TONS SO that between
the two years. so FAR from decrease or de-
cline. there has been an increase Off 694 vessels
and about $4,000 tons. 1t is only when we
come to compare the exports and imports that
the difference becomes apparent. In 1854 our
gross foreign trade was $533,000,O0O. In
1880 it was over 81, 800, 100000 So that
while all our home industries have extended
and increased, and our demand on Europe for
luxuries become three times what it was in
1855, our shipping has virtually stood still,
and what remains of it is chiefly that required
for our cOasting and internal trade.
In order to realize the change that has taken
place, we must 90 back to the period embrac-
ing the ten years from 1915 to 1855. At that
period American shipping carried not only
eighty per cent of the National exports and
imports but a fair percentage of the trade of
the world. The clippers built by Donald
Mckay at Boston were the fastest on the
seas. Many of them were sailed on temper
ance principles, and American sailors became
noted for intelligence, sobriety and skill. They
competed successfully with the Aberdeen

With all due respect to the jurors in the Me-
Inns case, it seems evident that III reaching a
verdict of not guilty they followed their FEELINGS
rather than the evidence. The judges charge
was directly against the prisoner and was sis-
tanned by Melius's own testimony. The brake
man admitted that if he had gone back I'M
medately when his train stopped he "ouiu
have had plenty of time 30 enter the cut aou
place a torpedo on the track to stop the larry
town special According to the rules OF the
company this was his DUTY without waning ior
directions from the conductor. This seems 10
make pretty clear case against him. but
probably the jurors thought the brakeman was
a good fellow, as careful as the average railway
empIoye, who did not mean to neglect MS
duty and that it would hardly be worth while
to punish him. especially when he was waiting
to be told what to do. This easy-golng we"
of the matter (Which it certainly Is not unjust
to suppose the jurors must have taken) might
be quoted with force by Mr.. Spencer II he ever
has occasion to point out hereafter that Ameri-
cans are too tolerant of small wrongs ana treS-
passes which it is unpleasant to resent.

The Aldermen have always done this munich
pality as much harm as they could, but occa-
sionally they show how much more they would
like to do. Then we realize how fortunate IL
is that their capacity tor evil is limited. Ihey
voted yesterday to increase all the estimates Oh
the city expenses for 1888 which they had t'nne
to consider. Unless in case of political Spi'e
against some officer they never. vote 10 ue,
crease expenditures, and yesterday they ana all
in their power to add thousands OF dollars 10
the sums asked for by the departments. lheir
object, of course, WAS to make themselves pop
ular with certain classes and to swell the SPOTS
of next year. Happily, their wishes ana votes
in this particular Instance are of slight lmpor-
lance. The Board OF Estimate and Appoitioh-
ment probably will not pay any attention 10
| them : but such nclnatiOns toward ex'raVa-
gance as these liquor-sellers and demagogueS
| dsplhy whenever they have chance are par
ticularly aggravatiDg TO our burdened tax
pavers. We mention them TO show what
| fortunate thing it is that beyond certain limit
they cannot work their own sweet will on this
