When Mr. Bryan talks for the bene-

that the hall is cleared of reporters.
His latest break in speaking of our

1t is very gratifying to American
pride that this country ranked second
only to France in the total number OF
awards at the Paris exposition. 1t is
significant of our industrial prestige
and will duly impress Europe. But the
fact must not be overlooked that Ger
MANY was a close third. That coun-
trys industrial development IN the past
few years is a factor that must be
reckoned with. for her workers are de-
termined to take a high rank in the
worlds progress. 1t is not to be
doubted that this country can hold It's
own in any industrial competition, but
our manufacturers and merchants can
not afford to rest on their laurels.

1t is an interesting announcement
that the $50 largest cities in the coun-
try. as shown by the census, have in
creased by almost exactly the same
number of inhabitants during the past
decade as during the decade from 1880
to 1890 This was vast increase but
it does not bear out the constant COM
plant that the rural districts are being
drained of their population to swell the
cities. One reason. however, why city
population has not increased in greater
proportion is found in the growth of
suburban population due to the trolley
and the increase of travel facilities on
the steam lines by which increasing
thousands of city workers have their
homes outside the city limits.

The second decision referred to was
rendered by the supreme court OF Kan
sas adverse to Thomas Dangerfeld,
who started two years ago from Kan
sas City TO Ireland. He bought a
scalper's ticket TO Chicago via the
Santa Fe road. The conductor be-
tween Kansas City and Topeka
honored the ticket but the one east of
Kansas City took it up and demanded
that Dangerfield pay his fare The
passenger refused and was put off the
train. He sued the company for $40, 900
damages. The district court Of Usage
county threw the case out on de-
murrer, and Dangerfield appealed to
the supreme court. In affirming the
decision of the lower court the supreme
court held that Dangerfield. not being
Il original purchaser nor having com
piled with the conditions plainly
printed upon the ticket, was not en-
titled to ride upon the same; that the
conditions Of the contract were not
waived and the railroad company was
not estopped to refuse the ticket be
cause the agent of the company to
whom it was first presented did not
discover the imposition, and when the
discovery was made the company had
the right to refuse To carry Dangerfield
further, and upon his failure to pay his
fare to require him to leave the train.

Two important decisions have just
been made by the courts on the rights
Of holders of railroad tickets and of
the railroads. The question as to
whether railroad company has the
right to confiscate mileage ticket, if
presented for passage by anybody but
the original purchaser. has been de-
cided in the affirmative by the supreme
court of New Hampshire. The plaintiff
in the case was accustomed to rent out
mileage books at an advance on the
price which he paid the railroads for
them. A conductor of the Maine Cen
trail Railroad took up one of those
books which was presented by a
passenger who purchased it from the
plaintiff, and he brought suit to re-
cover the amount he originally paid for
the mileage book. The supreme court
denied his right to recover. holding
that the conditions on which the mile
age book was issued We're not contrary
to law or public policy. and that hay
ing violated the conditions, the law
affords the plaintiff no relief.

THE SHIPPING BILL.
A Measure, Which, If Passed, Will
Mean Much for Pensacola.

A Measure, Which, If Passed, Will
Mean Much for Pensacola
Editor The Daily News:
Much is said in certain newspa-
pers about our laws denying to
American citizens the right to pur-
chase foreign-built ships. OF course
you know that our laws have
never denied this right to any Amer
lean citizen? You are no doubt
aware that some 100000 or 100000
tons of foreign-built ships are at this
moment owned by American citi-
zens? Does not Capt. John COdDan,
the most persistent advocate of free
ships, admit that there is nothing to
attract fOreIgn-built ships under our
flag unless they are permitted Go en-
gage in our protected cOastwise
trade?
Will you not explain what it is
that would induce Americans TO pur-
chase foreign-built ships and place
them under our flag? Are not for
eign ships given every privilege in
our foreign trade that Is enjoyed by
American ships?
Who are the American owners of
foreign-built ships that are asking
the privilege of American registry
for them? If, under our flag, such
ships would ba eligible TO receive
subsidies and bounties, or to engage
in our cOastwise trade, that might
explain why they would desire
American registry; but is there any
other reason?
OF what benefit, since the close Of
our civil war, has the British free
ship statute been to British shipOWn-
ers? Have BTitOns gone to other
countries to purchase ships? Is it
not fact that the British free-ship
act has not appreciably aided in
building up the British merchant
marine?
Granted that the purchase of Brit
ish-built ships by fOI eigners is of
benefit to Great Britain, where does
it benefit British shipOwners.
What other nation than the United
States denies the right of national
registry to fOreign-builts ships owned
10y its citizens?
During the past thirty-five years
has any other nation denied that
right to its citizens? II. then, the
free-ship policy is an advantage to
maritime nations, why are not all of
such nations doing at least th- bulk
of their own foreign carrying under
their own flags? If it be admitted
that one or two nations have bene-
fitted TO a certain extent under free
ship policy, what has prevented all
of them from benefiting under il?
What nations have built up their
mercantile marine through the fee
registry of foreign-hui!t ship?
