Indorse Eads' Ship Railway Scheme.

WASHINGTON CITY, May Ex-senator
Conger submitted to the senate Friday the
report of the committee on commerce on
the Eads' ship-railway bill The report
that many of the most distinguished en-
gineers, naval constructors and ship-build-
ers of the world concur in the opinion that
the prosect is in every way practicable, and
that the largest ships with their cargoes can
be safely carried upon properly con-
structed railway over moderate grades
From these opinion the conclusion is irresist-
able that the project is prac-
tical one" The committee is Of opin-
ion that an isthuian transit-way is
now absolutely necessary from whatever
view the matter may be regarded That it
will have a tendency to largely increase
our commerce and stimulate our shipping
and ship building interests and that it is
essential, if cur government would retain
the respect of its own people and Of foreign
nations that it should now practically
demonstrate its determination to forever
discourage foreign control upon this CONT

Any formal communication which might be

Immediately referred to the powers Turkey,
herself, will never voluntarily withdraw
