SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENTAL ENCOURAGEMENT
NEEDFUL FOR ITS REsToRATIoN-FAcTs
ABOUT THE SOUTH AMERICAN TRADE.
TO he Edttor of The Trt6Wne
Sir; The patriotic and soul stirring utterances NJ
the recent convention Of the American Shipping and
Industrial League held in this city, of which organ
zation Captain Snow, the Hon. John F. Henry and
William H. Webb, of New-York are prominent
representatives has awakened good deal of public
sentiment In favor of the adoption OF vigorous
National policy by which the lost prestige Of the
American merchant-navy may be speedily restored
The National question involved Is clean cut and
moisive. Our merchant marine consists Of two
distinct branches-the one engaged in our domestic
trade, and the other in foreign trade. No foreign
vessel is allowed to engage in domestic or coast
wise commerce, which includes trade between our
Atlantic and Pacific ports, via Panama, as we'll as
via Cape Horn. Under absolute protection against
foreign competition, this branch Of our merchant
marine is highly prosperous, and It embraces both
steam and sailing vessels. which In form and con-
strueton are unsurpassed by tho ships of any other
nation on the globe.
But American vessels engaged in foreign COM
merce are compelled by our laws and treaties TO
compete with foreign vessels upon absolute free
trade principles The result is that the American
ship has been driven out from foreign trade The
decadence Of this branch Of our merchant marine
Is uaccablo to no other cause. In the modelling
and construction OF vessels and in seamanship we
still hold the lead. The munihcence and patriotic
enterprise Of General Payne, the genius Of Burgess,
and the nautical skill Of our good Long
Island skipper Captain Hah, have recently
demonstrated this fact. But 1t has
been proved time and again ever since we became a
nation. In the manufacture Of iron and steel We
know superior the globe, and in the building of
marine engines American genius has proved its super
ority in economic adaptations and in developed steam
power And yet In the struggle of the foreign carry
ting trade We have hardly place upon the seas The
story OF our failure In the International carrying trade
Is summarized the following data showing the per
centage Of American and foreign tonnage entered at
ports of tho United States from foreign countries:
