WASHINGTON, Jan. ,1S.-Senators Ham
ma and Frye were busily engaged to-day
in agreeing to amendments to the ship
subsidy bill in return for votes. By this
means they have secured the reluctant sup
port of Senators Mcmillan, Aldrich. Spoon
won them over follow:
No extra compensation to be allowed YES
sells of over eighteen knots, thus cutting off
about $4,000 from each of the fast-going
mailships as provided under the original
terms of the bill.
No compensation to be allowed oil tank
vessels.
The length of time for which contracts
are to be made is reduced from twenty
years TO fifteen years.
The number of foreign vessels to be ad-
mitted to American registration, provides
a like tonnage is built in the United States.
is limited to four vessels to each firm for
each class; that is, four vessels already
built and four vessels for which contracts
have been maze and not completed. The
effect of this will be to reduce the amount
OF foreign tonnage that may be admitted
to American register under the terms of the
bill from about $50 900 tons to 100000 tons.
A modification of Clause of the bill
makes II necessary for any ship-owner or
builder to actually begin work of construc-
ton before contract will be entered into.
These amendments will be offered on the
floor of the Senate, provided the bill comes
to a vote. 1t is held that they will prevent
the Standard Oil Company, which owns
fast ships, oil tanks and foreign-built YES
sells from absorbing undue proportion of
the subsidy money The bill is to be made
the unfinished business of the Senate. with
the understanding that 1t shall not stand
in the way OF appropriation bills or any
thing else the Senate wants to do. This
means that the chances are against the
passage of the bill at this session.

IS late as possible, so to obviate the
necessity of carrying it through the cor
ridors and Railways of the hotel In the

HE had his limitations for like all of
us he was human. But / say what all of
you know. that the life of this man was
noble and benefcent, high in its purposes
fearless in its devotion to principle, kindly
I'm its spirit, exceptionally helpful in its in
fiuence. The highest products of our Amer
lean civilization are not our civil institu-
tons or our gigantic commercial and man
ufacturing enterprises. Travellers in Egypt
are pointed TO the pyramids and marvel at
the civilization which could pile up such
massive structures. Travellers in Athens
look at the Acropolis and see upon IL the
imposing ruins OF that masterpiece OF Greek
architecture, the Parthenon- Travellers in
Switzerland stand in wondering awe be-
fore the looming majesty of the great
mountains. Here. in our commonwealth
of Indiana, We have no high mountains no
matchless Parthenon, no mighty pyramids
but We have that which is nobler The
first fruit earth holds up 10 its Maker is
manhood. AS native of the State of In
diana, 1 rejoice TO think that the soil of
Indiana produces men OF the type of James
A. Mount. AT the very foundation OF his
life was his Christian faith and his Chris
tian principle
