DENOUNCED GOVERNOR.
Harold sewan Canses a ssnsation
In Georgia.

Brunswick, Ga, Jan uary III -Perma-
neut organization of the National Mari
time convention was effected today by the
elsoti on of A. K. Miller Of New Orleans,
president; +. b. Thurber, of New York,
secretary and vice president from each
state represented. A resolution was
unanimously adopted favorlng a ship
subsidy.
MIR. Harold NJ. Sewall OF Bath, Me-,
son OF the lat Arthur Sewall and repre-
senting the ship building industry estab-
lished by his father, made u speech de-
nouncing allegations that the convention
is Being held in the interest OF the ship
subsidy bill during which he said:
"We are pictured as partners in crims
by the governor Of Georgia whose guests
we are. / could not leave here without
denouncing the statements of the
governor as malignant and libelous. l
feel it my duty to defend the honest men
who are here and would not leave the
South without doing so. Despite the
statements OF your governor who Is not
present at this meeting, have the salts
faction OF knowing that the endorsement
OF the pending meas ure in Congress was
started by Southern men. The men OF
the South have spoken through this mari
time Congress. The bill which your
governor characterized as nefarious
scheme was drafted by as honest men as
there are in the country and not by GER
tain ones who remain away and refuse to
take part, and let others do the work.
The speech caused sensation, which
was intensified when the president or the
board OF trade moved that it be made a
part OF the official proceedings which mo-
ton wRs carried.

Along.

orstlo senators and their co-workers In
the SsnAts who were opposed TO the ship

batS upon the bill for the present with
the hope of bsing able to keep 1t going
until IL will become necessary for the
Republican majority to take up the sp-
preparation bills and other measures
which should pass before the 4th of
March.
The opposition say they have 81 caches
assured for eight or ten days and that
there ara probably other senators who
win prepare speeches within that time.
They also count upon speeches from the
Republican side or the chamber Tbs
canvass of the situation has convinced
the Democratic leaders that there are O
half Dean or more Republican senator's
who would like to see the bill defeated
even In its amended form, but :hey do
not expsct their votes against the bill II
it should come to vote
The democrats contend that they do
not interd to tilibuster against the bill,
but Fay thty will insist upon its tho
rough discussion before coEsentinG to a
vote upon it.
