They Kissed the Captain.

When La Gascogne finally reached her
wharf in New York Captain Baudelon came
striding down the plank with his head un-
covered, smiling and bowing from right
to left. A woman threw him large bunch
of violets. He deftly caught it and held
them to his face as he stepped down toward
the crowd. Hers he was seized by eager
hands on all sides and pulled this way and
that. Every one tried to get one of his
hand. The women in the crowd being the
more de1non-trative in that respect. They
all kissed him at once.
Outside the docks there was a long line
of ca b5 and carriages and as soon as landed
the pas engers hurried through and drove
off. 1t was a good natured crowd. Every
one was excited but every one was happy.
The passage of La Gascogne from quaran-
tine to the pier of the Compagnie General
Trans-Atlantique was somewhat in the
nature of triumphal progress
Every steam C aft IN the channel and
along the river saluted the belated steamer
with VIII stiles and many flags we're dipped
TO her as she passed. She showed no sign
Of i'll u age. Arriving at the pier at the foot
Of Morton street, the passengers were dis
emba rked. and receiv the joyous greeting
of the great crowd in waiting there.
George T. Anthony.
An executive session of the Kansas senate
was held and the following report of the
committee in Senator Dennison's hand
writing received
We, your committee, have had under
consideration the connection of George
L. Anthony with the Union Terminal rail-
road case, in which it was charged by one
S. B. West that said Anthony had received
$1,000 for his decision in said case, and we
report that we find no evidence i'm plicating
him in said transaction.
We further find that the said West has
made different and very conflicting state
ments about this transaction, and his testi-
mony is impeached by his own later affi-
davits. W. E. STERNE,
Chairman.

"This, says the Sun, stands for revo-
luton. There has been no political move
ment SO violent since the secession of the
South ically wiped out all opposition
to the dominating party on either side of
the line Of hostilites. The result is the
same at every point. The cuckoo who
would pick out Maryland or Ohio as an
Illustration Of the fate Of anti administra-
tionism, will have to give it up when in
sight Of the returns in Massachusetts,
New Jersey or New York. In Massachu-
setts the cuckoos have monopoly Of the
State machinery and candidates; in New
York Mr.. Cleveland took a personal hand
in The canvass. One idea governed in all
the States named above, and that was,
when frankly summed up, the determina-
ton to condemn and crush the democratic
party, at the head Of which is Grover
Cleveland.

REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF BUREAU OF
NAVIGATION.

REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF BUREAU OF
NAVIGATION.
The annual report of Eugene F. Cham
berlain, chief Of the bureau of navigation,
shows that the numbers and tonnage Of
our merchant fleet for the year, have been
nearly stationary. On June 30, it com
prised %, 24O doc ume ntal vessels Of A.
635, 96O tons, a decrease Of $4,000 tons
since June 3, 1894. This decrease is at
tributable to the business inactivity two
summers ago. The production Of four
shipyards in April, May and June Of this
year, much exceeded the production dur
ing the same months in 1894.
The chief events have been the initial
trips Of the st. Louis and St. Paul. Our
feet on the great lakes outnumbers that
Of any nation except England and Ger
many
The report is devoted chiefly to recon-
mendations for the repeal Of many of our
navigation laws of the last century
which We're copied verbatim by the earli-
est Congresses from the laws Of King
George the Third of England. Commits
sioner Chamberlain points out that every

but we alone retain them as handicap to
our merchant marine. He shows that
our merchant marine is in keenest compe-
tition.
First, with merchantmen of foreign ma
tions whose governments have freed them
from the shackles OF the old laws which
we still retain.
Second, with American railroads, which
are strongly organized and have protect
ed themselves generally from the burden
some laws under which navigation inter
ests are compelled to operate.
The free ship bill, which was the chief
measure advocated i'll the last report is
again recommended, but more briefly.
The condition Of the American sailor as
affected by the laws, receives exception
ally full treatment. Commissioner Cham
berlain proposes that the government
take full control Of the shipping com
missioners' offices, with view Of max
ing them, as designed to be- the sole
employment agencies for seamen. The
report recommends reduction from
three cents to two cents per ton tax
on vessels from nearby ports.
Free ship building materials for Ameri-
can vessels in the coastwise as we'll as the
foreign trade, are recommended, and the
repeal Of Is sections or statutes relating
to minor matters is advised on the ground
Of their uselessness.
