OBJECTIONS TO SUBSIDY BILL.
HOUSE DEMOCRATIC MINORITY FILES ITS
REPORT.

Washington. May 15-The minority report on the
Shipping Subsidy bill. opposing that measure. has
been filed in the House of Representatives by the
majority of the members of the Democratic mi
nority of the Committee on Merchant Marine and
Fisheries Representative Fitzgerald, OF Massa
chusetts, drew the report, which was signed also
by Representatives De Vries. of California; Daily,
Of New-Jersey, and Speight. of Mississippi Three
other Democrats of the committee Messrs. Chanler,
Sm.fl and Ransdell have heretofore submitted
their views uphoding the general principle OF
Government aid to the merchant marine, but
pointing defects in the bill The present report.
therefore, represents the opposition to the measure
both in principle and in detail In the main IL is
a argument against Government subsidies, and
that most of the proposed S9oooooo subsidy
will go a few favored concerns. without building
up American shipping in general or encouraging
American exports
The report quotes recent utterance OF Presl-
dent Mckinley the remarkable increase OF our
shipbuding and says in part:
Our foreign trade; then. is increasing with Won
remarkably prosperous without subsidy. Why,
then, should the whole country be taxed to pro pro
vide gratuties for industries which are now pros
porous and which have every prospect OF con-
tinuing to be more and more prosperous!
The report says that the subsidy. if it affects
at all, will affect passenger rather than
freight rates and that unlimited subsidy would be
necessary lower general freight rates.
The objections TO the bill are summed up as fol-
lows:
% bg SasT e the in as b title are en-
Second-It IS reasonably certain that most of the
subsidy would go lines already established and
prosperous
Third-Under this bill the ordinary freight steam
ers which carry so 80 per cent of our agri-
cultural exports will get but fraction of the
amount of subsidy which the passenger steamers
would receive, although the latter carry less than
10 per cent of agricultural exports.
Fourth-JTnder this bill ship practically
in ballast and draw subsidy. We believe that when
freight promptly offered il will pay certain
class of ships to empty rather than TO wait for
cargo.
Fifth-This bill would tax all our citizens to pro-
vide profits for favored few in this favored
industry.
Sixth--The professions of this bill insincere
and its principles unsound We believe that the
best interests of this Nation do not demand the
passage of this of any similar bill

THE MAYORS OF ISLAND TOWNS ACCUSED
OF ILLEGAL PRACTICES.

OF ILLEGAL PRACTICES.
Havana, May 13.-Sefor Nunez, Civil Governor
of Havana. has applied TO General Wood for per-
mission to attend to urgent private affairs for the
next six weeks General Wood replied that there
was no objection TO this, provided arrangements
were made for carrying on the routine work of
the province.
Recently a disposition has been manifested on
the part OF certain officials to evade responsible
fly for the duties OF several important offices
during the elections, the fear being that in some
places there will be trouble between the parti-
sans of rival candidates, and the officials in
question do not desire TO use the Rural Guard or
to ask for United States troops.
Senior NuneZ says he has received complaints
from many small towns in the province with
reference TO the course of the Mayors in antici-
patton Of the elections. The complaints, which
are virtually the same, alege that the Mayors
are making an Illegal use of their places. with a
view to securing reelection. This they are able
10 do effectively because the election inspectors
are nominated by the municipalities and in
many small towns the Mayors would be able to
get their own friends nominated by the success

votes Besides this the inscription boards can
also be secured in the same fashion. At Melena
almost the entire body of citizens refused TO vote
because Of the alleged improper behavior of the
partisans of the Mayor. In the larger towns this
cannot be carried out well as in the smaller
where the sympathies of each man are known
and where as any voter is suspected of
being hostile to the Mayor. all sorts of obstacles
are placed in the way of his inscribng

little authority, the question resting with the
