After the routine morrilg business Mr..

ported back the House bill to encourage
American ship-bulidlng. He said that the
report was unanimous and that he had been
instructed to move i.s preser confederation.
He MAIDS that mo.ion, and 1t was agree1 to.

That, he asii, was the full ext mt of the
bill. Ths two ships to BE- admitted were
the City of New York and the City OF Paris
the two largest ships to-day In the world,
since the Great Ess.ern was broken up; tie
two staunchs5t ships ia the world, and, be
might say, the two fastest, except that the

minutes lesa time.
Within the last year. knowing that the
Government was looking sn1ioualy toward
