THE DEMOCRATIC POSITION
IDEAS OF THE HOUSE MINORITY
ON THE SHIP SUBSIDY BILL.
Amendments That Were Defeated
Through the Dietation of Senator
Hanna.

Washington, March 25.-Representative
Fitzgerald of Massachusetts, the ranking
Democratic member of the house mer-
chant marine committee, made a state
ment today regarding the position of the
Democratic minority on the shipping sub
Sidy bill, in which he says:
The members of the Democratic minor

brethren, the chaotic condition of the
american merchant marine at the pres

ent bill formed by the Republican major
lIy, While II Is vastly superior to the or
lglnal measure, presented in the house
and senate is yet far from satisfactory.
The present shape of the measure and the
many good features that have been added
TO the bill since its first introduction, can
pc charged up to the insistence of the
Democratic members that various posi-
tons should be amended. Two practical
amendments. however, which have been
asked Tor by the Democratic members and
TO the support of which ar least three of
the Republican members volunteered
enough TO make majority in the whole
cOmmittec-Were defeated through the in
sistence of the ship owners trust, and the
dictatiOn of Senator Hanna, vino told the
Republican members that under no con-
siderauOn could either OF the amendments
be attached TO the bill.
me hrst was provision to extend the
time during which Americans could pur-
T.
This policy is outlined and favored IN the
report Of Secretary Gage. If IL is a wise
provision TO allow the purchase of foreign
vessels because of the added work that
would accrue to American ship yards. it
seems 10 me that it would prove still more
advantageous to allow more foreign YES
sells to be purchased for a year at least,
on account of the tremendous increase
that it would call for in building Ameri-
can ships in American ship yards.
The second provision allowing Ameri-
cans to purchase foreign ships wherever
they pleased. TO place them under the
American flag and operate them without
any subsidy. was likewise defeated. The
British shipping today, the increase OF
which has been so favOrably commented
on by the promoters of this bill. is largely
between foreign ports and why Ameri-
cans. when it does not interfere with the
payment of subsidies, as would be the
case if this amendment were added to the
bill. should be deprived of the opportunity
of investing capital in these ships, as well
as increasing the opportunities of flying
the American flag, employ American sea-
men and build up the American merchant
marine, is more than I can understand"

CIGARETTES ARE BARRED
Employees of the Weather Bureau
Must Not Smoke Them.

Washington, March 25.-Chief Willis L.
Moore of the weather bureau has issued
an order prohibiting persons connected
with the service from smoking cigarettes
during Office hours, and stating further
that those who smoked cigarettes at any
time would be mentioned in the cOnfiden-
tlal reports which are made quarterly to
him by chiefs of the several offices and
divisions throughout the entire service
Chief Moore said today:
The order was issued after careful
consideration and a thorough investiga-
ton OF the evils resulting from cigarette
smoking. II Will stand. In this service We
are compelled to maintain a very strict
discipline, in order to secure satisfactory
service. Some of our men, who are re-
garded as the most thorough and com
petent, doing every detail OF their work
with the utmost prOmptneSs and accurcy,
gradually became careless and lax I sent
inspectors to investigate, and in a num-
Der of cases it was found TO be directly
attributable to the use of cigarettes.
Il am not prudish, nor do | wish to as
sumo any authority whatever over anv
privilege which the employees of the ser
vice should have, but as a public servant
l feel that il is my duty TO correct anv
evil that may exist even if in ATTEMPT
ing TO make this claim l am over-stepping
my authority. The order applies to the
entire force of the bureau throughout the
entire service. Cigarette smoking must
cease. Cigars and pipes are. not barred. -

Democratic Senators Will Support a
Free Trade Amendment and Re
publicans in Opposition Threaten
to Offer Many Amendments
Object to Bynum's Confirmation.

Washington, March 25.-The senate
will give the greater part of it's time
this week to the Porto Rican question.
However, at the beginning of the week
Senator Carter will be given an oppor-
tunitY TO secure consideration for his
Alaskan code bill 1t will not likely
arouse any general debate.
The Republican caucus will take the
Porto Rican ques ion in hand again to-
morrow
The Republicans who support the
house Porto Rican tariff bill hope to
get the measure out Of the caucus after
one sitting, but the free traders are not
so anxious on that score, and the latter
element may delay matters there, as
they are disposed to do in the senate
with the hope of receiving still further
encouragement from the country at
large. Some of the members of the free
trade Republican element declare their
purpose to vote against the bill if re-
ported without amendment They
threaten to offer many amendments.
and to make speeches in opposition to
do all in their power to prevent the
passage Of the bill as it stands. but
the caucus, of course. may find a means
OF preventing this open rupture. AT
any rate, strong effort will be made in
that direction.
The Democratic senators will support
free trade amendment when present
ed, but they prefer to have the bill re-
ported when amended. The renOmina-
ton of Mr. Bynum to be appraiser at
New York should be taken UP tomor-
row. The Democratic leaders will OPP
pose confirmation.
The committee on privileges and cleo
tions will hear the arguments of the
counsel in the case of Senator Clark,
beginning Wednesday.
The report on the case is not expected
for several weeks.

GOVERNOR GENERAL WOOD
URGED TO MAKE CHANGES.
Meeting Called to Discuss Universal
Suffrage Was a Failure-Little
Interest Taken in the Subject.

Havana. March Ex-Governor Cen
eral Wood has recently had interviews
with persons of influence who have
strenuously urged the taxation of valu-
able property rather than each bag of
sugar as it is manufactured. Those
who hold this view contend that under
the present system impediments are
thrown IN the way of production. They
point out that many valuable estates
have been lying idle and unproductive
Tor years, some even having complete
sugar plants The owners, who are rich
men, are living in Paris, Madrid and
other European cities. quite untaxed
for their property in Cuba.
General Wood feels that # these
properties are taxed their owners will
make them productive.
The meeting called today of those
favoring universal suffrage resulted in
faiiure. The only persons present
were about fifty negroes and several
small boys. al
