WITHOUT TICKERs.
Both Board of Trade and Bucket Shops
Do Better without Quotations..

CHICAGO, April 2.-The Board of
Trade opened this morning with all the
tickers and telegraph instruments off
the floor. This is the result of the
resolution of the board to go out of the
business of furnishing officialquotations,
in order to run out the bucket-shOps.
The general impression among the mem
bers is that it is doubtful experiment.
There were rumors on the board this
morning to the effect that an arrange
.ment had been entered into with the
New York Stock Exchange by which
that body was to cut off its stock re-
ports from the bucket-shops.
The members of the Board of Trade
were enthusiastic this afternoon over
the result of the first days trading with
quotations dropped. They say the
volume of business was larger than on
any day in months before. They attribute
this to orders from men who have been
dealing through bucket-shops.
Despite the efforts of the Board OF
Trade the bucket-shops managed to
secure quotations today with reasonable
promptness, and assert that their busi-
ness was not diminished.

OUR MERCHANT MARINE.
How to Place 1t Equality With
That of Other Nations.

How to Place 1t on an Equality With
That of Other Nations. a
WASHINGTON, April 2-The House
committee on merchant marine and fish
cries today reported bill 'to place the
American merchant marine engaged in
foreign trade, upon an equality with that
of other nations" The principal provis-
ions of the bill have already been given.
The report accompanying it says in part:
The ocean transportation of the United
States averaged $240, 600, 900 annually the
past ten years. Taking our share of this
trade at rs per cent. we have the amount
of $3.50 ,000 900, ten per cent. of which is
$4,000, 900. Surely it would not be
bad investment for nation to pay out
$1S annually to secure an opportunity to
earn $3.50, but if this is too large, make
it per cent. That would be double
what the bounty bill will call
for. In the ten years to
come, the estimate of the committee is
that, under the terms of the bill, the
payment in bounties for the first year
would be: For sail vessels, 81, ,644, ,S19;
steam vessels, $l,715, 1922; total, So, $780,
ISL. The annual increase would be
about 5 per cent, so it would be eight
years before the annual bounty will
amount to SIS, 100000.
Representative Fithian submitted the
report of the minority, which says a
subsidy would be creating and fostering
a privileged class at the expense of the
whole people. The minority believe
that the most effective way to bring
about revival of the shipping industry
is for Congress to place all materials
used in the. construction of ships upon
the free list; repeal all laws in restraint
of trade; repeal restrictive navigation
laws, and permit merchants to buy their
ships where they can buy them cheap

without avail. The International Com
pany had cleaned up $25, 900 the day be-
fore, but was not ready to forward it.

greater depravity is shown by the man

supper in fancied security. Such was
