incidentally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. It
is the one perfect strengthening laxa-
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one

stance, and it's acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal

Senator Depew's Speech

Senator Depew began with a survey
of the country's first century of devel-
ment, pointing out the immense mate
rial progress that had been made in
agriculture and manufactures, how our
exports had grown to ST, 500, 900, 900 an
nually in excess.of our imports, and how
the international lines of communica-
ton had been made into the most COM
prehensive in the world. But he in
sisted that the development of the coun-
try had been one-s1ded. While pre-
pared to feed and clothe half the world
outside Of the United States, we had
developed our transportation system
only to our own coast line and had al
lowed our merchant marine to remain un-
developed, so that there was actually
greater tonnage of American vessels
built i'll this country for the foreign
trade in 1870 than in 1900. Said Mr..
Depew:
The farm, the factory and the mines
have filled the warehouses and docks of
our Atlantic and Pacific coasts with
their contributions to national wealth,
employment and the happiness Of our
people, and left their transportation to
Europe, to Asia, to Africa, to South
America and to Australia to the greed
of foreign shipowners, to the protection
Of foreign flags and to the hazards of
foreign wars -

Germany's Pig Iron Output.

subsidy the Only Solution.

Looking to the remedy for the pres
ent stagnatlon in the American mer-
chant marine, Mr.. Depew said the cry
of ''free ships" had long ago been dis
counted. 1t was not to be considered as
a remedy, for it left out of the question
the development of an American ship
building industry. The plan of dis
eliminating duties, he said, was also
impracticable. France had tried it and
been forced to repeal her law within a
year. No nation would submit to dis
eliminating duties without retaliating
against us, and no nation like ours,
which is more of seller than a buyer,
can afford to provoke such retaliation
and thus stimulate the production in
Russia, India, Egypt and Asia against
our cotton and our corn.
The speakers conclusion was that
there renamed only the subsidy as a
practical solution of the problem. He
said:
"All nations are agreed that their
merchant marine can be built up only
by bounties. The bounties paid last
year by the different maritime nations
were 26,000, 900 in round numbers,
against 81, 900, 900 in round numbers by
the United States. German statesmen
discovered that if the empire was to
find a market for it's growing surplus it
must have It's own ships. Within the
past few years the German government
has been increasing directly it's subsi-
dies and has lent every possible govern
ment encouragement to the enlarge
ment of German shipyards and the con-
struction and operation of German
steamships"
The result has been, he declared, that
Germany has come to the fore and
taken second rank as a maritime power,
although she has little coast and few
ports. The building up of the Ameri-
can shipping industry, he said, would
mean the direct employment of 200, 900
men in shipbullding operations, besides
the immense indirect aid that it would
give to all lines of iron and steel pro
duction in this country.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.-In the senate
this morning, AIR. Towne of Minnesota
offered a JOINT resolution declaring
'that justice, the public welfare and
the nationol honor demand the immedi-
ate cessation of hostilities in the Philip
pine islands, on terms recognizing and
guaranteeing the interests of the United
States
Ms. Towne asked that the resolution
lie on the table, and gave notice that on
next Monday he would address the SEN
ate on it.
Wnen the ship subsidy bill was taken
up for consideration, Senator Depew
addressed the senate as follows:
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1901-01-26

AS to the adequacy of the present
measure to meet the requirements OF the
case, Mr.. Depew said it was to his mind
as fair a solution of the problem as could
be devised at present.
''It is estimated, - he said, THAT there
is paid by American producers to for
eign ship owners III freight charges at
least $l75, 100000 year. Four per cent
ON this would give US an American
merchant marine and the expenditures
Of much the larger part of this money
III our own country.
sit is undoubtedly true said Sena-
tor Depew, "thaC the American ocean
lines were more expensive To build and
MAINTAIN than those of foreign coun-
tries Without subsidies they were
operated at a loss. If, with the small
subsidy proposed, they would yield
enormous profits, as some opponents of
the shipping bill declared, there would
be an abundance of money flow into the
shipbuilding business, to the advantage
of this fresh opportunity for profitable
investment"
Finally, he said: Without the con.
structicn of the Nicaragua canal, which
will be completed within the next few
years, the necessity for an auxiliary
and a merchant marine becomes still
greater. Whether we look at this ques.
tion as matter of national defense in
time of war, or consider it as one of the
factors in the solution of our industrial
problems as they rise from time to time,
or sum up the possibilities for the Amer.
lean farm and factory and mine in the
wants of the millions in the orient, the
beneicent effect of this measure be.

CzOlgOsz's CaptOrS
Regular Soldiers

WASHINGTON. d. C. Sept. lS.-There
has been much confusion, and much
false claiming, as to who was the first to
lay hold of Czolgosz and diearm him,
after he fired the fatal shot at President
Mckinley.
The credit for the arrest OF President
McKinley's assassin and for his rescue
from the crowd is claim ed by Captain
John p. Wiser OF the Artillery Corps
United States Army for his men, whose
names he gives in his report of the shoot.
ing to the Adjutant General of the
United States Army.
Captain Wiser says in his report that
he made detail, at the request OF Mr..
Babcock of the Reception Committee, to
assist in regulating the advance OF the
people at the President reception in
the Temple OF Music, September 6.
Corporal Bertschey and ten men re.
ported to Mr.. Babcock at 3 p. m. The
Corporal is soldier OF twenty years
service. The Corporal gave the men In
his detail instructions to keep their eyes
open and watch every man approaching
the President.
"When the assassin fired the two
Shots" says Captain Wiser, "Private
Brook was standing Immediately in the
rear of Mr.. John Milburn, who was on
the left of the President. Private
O'Brien was Immediately on Mr.. Mil
burns left. Private FennboQgh was
directly opposite Private O'Brien. Cor
poral Bertschel was midway between
Private O'Brien aud the point where the
President stood. When the shots were
fred Private O'Brien was the first man
on the assassin, with Private Neff. Cor
poral Bertschey and Private Brooks
reached him at about the same time,
Private Brooks coliding with MIR. Mil.
burn in his effort to get at the assassin.
"Private O'Brien got the assassin
down Private Neff jumped on him be.
fore the assassin was down and held his
arm while Private O'Brien wrenched
away the revolver as he was falling.
Corporal Bertschey then jumped on the
assassin, kneeling on his chest and
neck"
