That il is necessary TO concsde. In consid-

ample opportunity will exist for loading
steamships regularly with fairly full ont
ward cargoes, it Is at present difficult to
assure to said steamships return cargoes of
any appreciable amount: therefore, while
the cost OF the ocean service outward can be
met ey the TRAFFIC obtained for a large DOR
zion OF the year and perhaps reasonable
pronts yielded thereupon to the steamships.
Ine COST OF the return voyages would be
largely dtsproportioned to the revenues de-

Wnlcn the service is to be performed, in
order that the strong and well established
service through the South Atlantic ports
can De successfully met and the commercial
interests at stake and that are to be served
can be successfully appealed to.
My idea, therefore. is:
That from the traffic itself there can be
derived fund which shall accrue and be
periodically paid in settlements made to the
steamships IN the folio wing manner:
That from all through rates made on
tratnc OF various kinds an allowance of at
least cents per 100 pounds be first deducted
as an ocean terminal" to be set aside in
the rnanifesting of all such traffic, after
having first found and provided for the
steamships proportion of the rate. such
terminal not to be infringed upon for ray
ment therefrom Of expenses at the port for
unloading or insurance in depots or storage
assuming, as do, that all such expenses
Will, as is usual, be provided for by inland
carriers
rr.,
This terminal would yield 81 per net ton,
and upon the basis of an average cargo
handled per steamship of, say, 1000 tons,
would yield $1,000.
Please keep in mind that in making such
allowance for terminal it is to be under
stood that the steamship company supply
ing the service will always recognize the
competitive character of the traffic sought
and will adjust the ocean rates it offers in
such manner as, while yielding a reasona-
bic profit in the service given, will be in no
respect arbitrary or dscriminative against
the interests of the INLAND carrier.
On the basis named there would accrue a
sum OF $4,000 per annum per steamer,
amply compensatory in my judgment and
1ustifying the risk and loss incident 20 the
want Of return oatgo.
1t should be likewise understood aud
agreed that this amount of subsidy should
be reducible as return cargo develops, and
the method and amount Of such reduction
can be mathematically determined as the
business itself progresses. Very respect

LONDON. Oct. 2S-Supreme conf dence

mands the Government to cooperate with

In the highest financial quarters. however,
there is belief that the Government will
pursue policy of inertia on the currency
question. On the other hand, the Indian
currency committee will not take long TO
arrive at decision. The personnel of this
eommlttee-Lord Herschell, Mr.. Farrer and
Mr. Currie-fOrbds the hope that the
recommendations will be such as will meet
with the approval OF the members Of the
Brussels monetary conference.

Republican Managers Hopeful Of the Elec.
ton Heavy Registration in New York.

WASHINGTON Oct. 2s.-The Republican
managers are growing rather more hopeful
as the news of the registration comes in
from the interior OF New York State. Ad-
vices from Rochester indicate great gains IN
Republican registrations. as also In many
Republican cities of the State. Politicians
from the interior counties and districts re-
port that the farmers are going to come out
and vote in full force. Congressman Wads-
worth expressed the belief that the full Re-
pub lean vote will come out.
How about the Australian ballot with the
farmers?"
81 don't think we are going to lose any
thing by It," he answered. ''rhe farmers
have used this ballot twice, and are now
pretty familiar with II. Our farmers are
intelligent people, and | think there will be
no trouble among them on this account /
believe they will poll their full vote"
Then you don't look for any losses by
the new ballot law?"
Not on our side. On tho contrary, |
think the losses will be on the Democratic
side. The only place where 1t is likely to
cause loss of votes is among ignorant peo-
pie, and that's where we have the adv ptage

Been Misrepressntsd.

VALLEJO, Oct. 2S. - A dispatch from
Washington published in this mornings
San Francisco papers states that two officers
of the Mohican are likely to find themselves
in serious trouble for events that occurred
during the recent cruise of that vessel.
These officers are the commander, for
whom a court of inquiry has been ap-
pointed to look into the grounding of the
vessel, and Paymaster j. c. Sullivan, who is
alleged to have criticized the policy of the
Government in the Bering Sea controversy
in an interview with n newspaper reporter.
Paymaster Sullivan states that he did talk
with representative of the Post-Intelli-
gencer of Seattle. but that he neither
telked for publication nor did he express
the sentiments attributed to him. He has
been misrepresented entirely and has writ

Sullivan says that as an ex-soldier he would

triotic representative of the graDdest party
