Taxes on Sailing Vessels

Bills Introduced IN the House to Lower
Taxes on Sailing Vessels.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.-Two bills of in
terest to shipping people were introduced
in the House to-day by Representative
Flthian of Illinois. The legislation in
corporated in them was recommended by
MIR. Chamberlain of the Navigation Bu-
reau of the Treasury Department in his
last report.
The first bill provides that gross ton
mage instead of net tonnage shall be the
basis CT computing tonnage taxes, and
what IS known as the three-cent rate per
ton is reduced To two cents and the SIX
cent rate to five cents. These changes
will not affect the decreased revenues,
but viii diminish the taxes on sailing
vessels, which are now said to be too
high, and will transfer a portion of these
charges to steam vessels.
The second bill changes the measure
ment law also to make it conform to those
of Great Britain, Norway and other ma
tions, and the object sought by the pro-
posed legislation is to diminish the
amount of taxes which vessels of the
United States have 10 pay in foreign
ports.

A OUTTRRoAT AMONG FISHES,
The Swordfish Fights Everything, and
Death Follows in His Wake

The Swordfish Fights Everything, and
Death Follows in His Wake.
The swordfsh is the pugilist of the sea,

and misses no opportunity to fight I'm
ike the shark, the SwordtiSh would rather
tight than eat. The shark is ferocious.
ravenous and glutton, but the sword fish
nights for the sake OF fighting, without
troubling whether the object OF his attack
IS worth eating or not. Anything is
game Tor him from mack9rel to a man
ot-war. one OF the things i'll the ascend
ing scale between the two is a whale.
Ihe passengers on an Atlantic liner had
the good fortune some time ago to witness
an encounter between several swordiish
and whale. The huge body of the ce-
tacean was seen to rise repeatedly above
the water, quivering with pain and lash
ing his tail with fury. His ANTAGONISTS
could not at first be seen.
When view of them was obtained it
was evident that they were enioving
themselves. They prodded the unhappy
whale with wonderful Vigor and rapidity.
1t was hard work killing so large an ami
mai and one so we'll protected by blub-
Der, but the swordtish persevered and
hnally did the whale to death
There are few animals which attack
man and other animals without provoca-
ton. The swordtish is among them.
The lights between swordfish are the
most interesting to witness, as in other
cases the chances are apt 10 be unequal
Two swordtish fight like determined and
expert fencers. One OF these combats is
described by an eyewitness. The two
fish first rushed straight at one another
swordpoint to swordpoint One missed
and the others weapon entered his head
just below the eye. The wounded fish,
however, turned as his enemy rushed
past and drove his sword clear tbrouUh
the others body.
1t is asserted that the force with which
a large swordhsh strikes is equal to that
which drives twenty-four- pound shell
from a howitzer.
The common swOrdfish found in the
Atlantic is Niphias gladius. The sword
Is a sharp, bony continuation of the uD-
per jaw. 1t attains length of five TO ten
feet, and when full-grown can pierce the
copper-sheated wooden hull of a shin.
There are various authenticated cases in
which this has happened. One ship
Sprang leak at sea from no apparent
cause. When she arrived in port it was
found that the sword of one OF these fish
had pierced the copper, thick oak hull
and pine sheathing, and then entered a
barrel. The sword had broken Oft.
The sinking of the slOop Red Hot. in
the service OF the United States Fish
Com mission, off New Bedford, was
caused by swordfish.
W hen swordhSh gets into a school of
hsh he does not otmerely kill what he wants
TO eat. He dashes in among them, dealing
death right and left. His wake is strewn
with dead and mutiiated fish. A large.
fat. oily cod is one OF the swordfsh's
tavorite victlms.-New York World.
