tomorrow on the shipping bill, over the
sections of the bill relating TO the ex-
emption of vessels in the foreign car
rying trade from State and municipal
taxation, to the giving Of bonuses to
for use of domestic ma
teriaIs, and ON the FREQ ship question.
The committee agreed today to an
which provides that bonus
10 shipbuilders shall not exceed SIC Per
toa on sailing and $25 per ton on steam
and that the aggregate Of
bonuses in any case shall not exceed the
tonnage tax collected in that year. This
IL modification in line with the senti-
ment Of the House developed in the dis
Cussi0n Of the bill. The substance Of
the postal subsidy bill. reported from
the Postofiice Committee last session,
will be offered az an amendment to the
bill tomorrow. II 10 not probable the
House will adopt the amendment, but If
it should the Senate will agree to il. as
the Senate has on previous occasion
voted to subGdize mail steamship lines.
The prospects are that the vote on the
free ship amendment will be very close.
II it should be adopted it will seriously
endanger and many think defeat the
passage of the bill.
