AGAINST FOREIGN SHIPS
SENATE COMMITTEE HEARS AR
GUMENTS OF SHIPOWNERS.
Plan to Foster Shipping by Placing
Differential Duties on Goods Inn
ported i'm American Bottoms.

WASHINGTON. April 7.-While no
policy was agreed upon at the ship
ping mems hearing before the Senate
Committee on Commerce this after
noon. the views expressed were mainly
in favor of difTerential duties ON goods
imported in American bottoms. The
other side of the question, that which
most affects the Pacific States, was
presented by Senator Perkins, who
represents in the committee the inter
ests of the Coast. He showed that
such duty on imports would affect a
large volume of trade. California. Or
egon and Washington. he said, export
annually 100000 tons of wheat alone,
and i'm addition there are large eN-
ports of lumber and other commodi-
ties which employ scores of vessels.
This trade, he stated. was carried on
principally in English bottoms, now
largely tramp steamers. which are OPP
Grated at IS per cent of the cost of
operation of American ships. Tramps
leaving England with cargoes of oils
for the Orient move i'm ballast across
the Pacific and take back wheat. Sail
ing vessels with tin plate or coal out
bound from England carry wheat on
the return voyage. To meet this con-
dition some plan other than differen-
tial duties seems necessary to the Sen
ator.
The gathering of shipping men was
representative of every branch of the
industry, and the ideas brought out
were the result of careful considera-
ton by the committee, owners and
builders. The Senate committee will
speedily endeavor to pass a bill to
meet the conditions of American ship
ping.

CAPTAIN WHITE COMMANDS.
The Popular Officer of Company b Re
elected Unanimously.

In spite of his protest against re-
naming as captain of Company b, Mr..
f. Oscar White was unanimously
chosen for that position last evening.
Sergt. Walter c. Weldon, Corp. Ewing
and Private George Edwards compose
committee to wait upon Capt. White
and inform him of the action of his
Company. The committeeman will ais }
to give his consent to serve for an
other year at least.
Capt. White will be informed that
Company b members will listen to nc
other man for their captain. y canvas
of the company will be made to learn
how many can be depended upon to
show up at drills. 1t is believed that
sufficient showing can be made to in
duce the captain to remain in the mil.
itary.
Capt. White clearly defines his posi-.
ton on the present military predica-
ment in letter read at the Company
b meeting last evening.
He wrote: "My reason for refusing
to be your captain for another year
is that it will be impossible for me tC
give the attention to the company that
it will need to bring it to "A condition

The curative properties Of
sulphur have been known for
ages, but owing to the crude
ness of the drug, it's use to a
greater or less degree has
been restricted. The leading

suffering humanity might be
benefited. BY the aid of
electricity this grave obstacle

POWDER EXPLODED.
Another Blow-Up Occurs at the
Santa Cruz Works.

SANTA CRUZ, Oct. Sat Lao this
morning two distinct reports of explo-
sions at the powder works We're heard
here. They were not SO loud as when
they ot CURED last week and destroyed
several mills, and awakened but a few
people.
As powder making was only resumed
Wednesday night for the first time
since the prior explosion, it was feared
that the wheel mills had been blown up,
but investigation showed that about a
hundred pounds of powder used in the
manufacture of cartridges had explod-
ed in the cooper shop.
The fire which followed communicat-
ed with the cartridge factory, result
ing in an explosion of many cartridges.
AS the other buildings are some dis
tance away the fire was confined to
the cartridge factory and the cooper
shop.
As the dynamo was damaged all the
electric lights at the powder works
We're extinguished. J. Holiday was
bruised in the head by a piece of fly
ing wood. The loss is estimated at sew
eraI hundred dollars.

Her marital affairs would probably
have been unheard of had she not sued
Shawl for 5000, which she claimed to
be due for services rendered. This
morning she found herself upon the
horns Of dilemma, for when question

the purpose of showing that she was
not a proper person to have the Gus
tody Of the two children, she was con-
fronted with the choice of two evils.
II she swore that she had married
Shawl she would not only lose her suit
for the 5000 alleged to be due for SER
vices, but would also be endangering g
her liberty by admitting that she had
committed bigamy. On the other hand,
by denying such marriage she would
brand her children with illegitimacy.
After hesitating some time she fin
ally chose the latter course, and Judge
Coffey thereupon continued the matter

The BRYANT AT PORT TOWNSEND.
SHE SAILS INTO PORT TOWN
SEND SAFE AND SOUND.
The Little Schooner Weathere One
of the Worst Storms Which
ais Ever Occurred.

PORT TOWNSEND CWash), Oct. 8.
The schooner w. J. Bryant, which
started to st. Michaels in tow of the
tug Holyoke, but parted her hawser in
a storm on September Dist, near Uni
max Island, sailed into port this morn
ing safe and sound.
r. A. Turner, who went north as
chief engineer on the steamer Eliza
Anderson, returned on the Bryant.
Speaking of the storm ON the 21st, he
said:
After the steamer Eliza Anderson
broke down and was deserted in Dutch
Harbor began to look for some way
to get myself and wife back to the
Sound. Our first opportunity was by
the schooner Bryant, in tow of the Hol-
yoke en- route from ST. Michaels AS
the room on the tug was limited we
boarded the schooner, and started on
Septemb Der Doth. That day a terrible
blow came on, and the tug, with the
schooner in tow, hove to. 1 have been
going to sea all my life, but never saw
seas run as high as that time
In the midst of the storm the haw-
ser parted, and it is well it did, for the
rolling of the schooner when attached
to the hawser was tearing the gunwale
off her bow, and we should have been
compelled 10 cut loose or loose all the
schOoner's foregunwale.
After parting from the tug we lay
to all night and all next day, expecting
the Holyoke to pick us up again. but
We never got sight of her. Captain
Smith then started for the latitude of
Cape Flattery, to which place our ac-
tual running time was the remarkably
brief period of six days For days at
time after that we were becaImed,
and not making two knots in twenty
four hours. For instance, on arriving
80 miles off Cape Flattery. 1920
west of 56.15 north, we lay in a dead
calm for five days. the canvas not
filling once in that time When we
finally got breeze we entered the
straits, and here we are now"
In all the Bryant carried eleven peo-
pie. Captain Smith, mate, two sailors a
cook and assistant cook. The passen-
gers were: Engineer r. A Turner and
wife. Seattle; Second Mate c. H. Mitch
ell. San Francisco; Will Howard and
Albert Langley, Seattle, firemen, all of
the steamship Eliza Anderson.
Captain Smith SCOTS at the idea. that
any alarm should have been manifested
for the Bryant's safety. He says that
during the entire storm, which he pro-
nounces one of the worst he ever saw.
the little craft shipped only a few gall
Ions of water.
The schooner W. J. Bryant was built
at Hoquiam, Wash. last year, and has
a net tonnage of forty-four tons. She
has been used as a pilot boat off Cane
Flattery and the mouth of the Column
bia River. and is considered a very
Stanch craft.

NEW YORK, Oct. S.-Silvef scored a
rise of 1 penny to p pence in London
to-day and 2 cents to So cents in New

assign any other cause for the rise
than scarcity Of supplies. The Indian
demand of late has been quite heavy.
The London price to-day is within 2H
pence of the price on September 20th,
which was the high point of the rally
