STUDY OF THE STATES

"HE Democrats have Parker and
Davis eleIted already. if one
Il could credit the claims they
make as TO the States they are
going to carry. but the calculations thus
far made alt. largely matter of ''rain-
hnw-cha>ing." Study of the States with
their strength in the Electoral College
leaves the. odds largely with Roosevelt
theory THAT lit is the. unexpected which
Happens" that Democrats can find any
prcSugc of victory in November.
The Electoral College row consists of
416 votes. 30 therefore being necessary
to a choice. If the election Were to be
held on Tuesday next. there couhi be
little doubt THAT the following States
would line up in the Republican column

EFFORT TO AID
OUR OWN SHIPS
important Bill Proposed in the
Senate.
SUBSIDY IS NOT NECESSARY
GENERAL HUMPHREY FAvoRs
THE MEASURE.
special to The IIerald-)

Washington. Jan. 2g.-General c. L.
humphrey, quartermaster general of
the army, has made an interesting re-
port OF senate bill 226s, which was re-
Ierred to him for examination by the
aenate committee on commerce. The
Dill IN question provides that vessels of
the United States, and no others, shalt
be employed il the transportation by
sea Of coal, provisions. fodder and sup
plies Of any description for use Of the
army and navy. The intention of the
measure being 10 compel shipments Of
government freight in vessels owned
by the United States. and to prevent
shipments being made in foreign yes
sells General Humphrey in his report
says that the great bulk of oversee
transportation for the army is per-
formed by American-oWned vessels
from San Francisco. This is almost en-
tirely the case fTcm Puget sound, and
the freight is carried in American yes
sells under contract with an American
steamship company. From New York.
during the past few years, a large
amount Of freight has been sent by sea
TO the Philippines in vessels of foreign
register. The reason of the department
for making such shipments direct fEOm
New York by sea has been that exceed
ingiy low freight rates have been OBJ
tanned on shipments thus made. making
it more economical for the department
to transact its business in this manner
than to send the freight from eastern
points in the United States to the Pa
cific coast by rail and then across the
Pacific by American owned transports,
and a great deal more economical than
the operation Of q line Of OWned-tranc-
ports between New York and Manila.
Humphrey Favors the Bill.
The quartermaster general recon-
mends the enactment of the proposed
law stating that ne believes 1t would
be a step toward upbuiiding Of the mer-
chant marine Of the United States, al
though the proposed law should be mod
fled so as to make it operative as fast
as vessels Of the United states becoms
available to transact the business. UTl~
der the present conditions no vessels
of the United states are Offering for
service between New York and the
Philippines. In the Philippine islands
there are not nearly sufficient vessels
OF American, register to perform the alb
sOluteIy necessary interisland freight
business, and if the proposed law were
put into operation Immediately upon
its passage the department would be
! embarrassed in the transaction of its
business in the Philippines. General
Humphrey Submits with his report a
statement showing in detail all ship
ments for public purposes to the Phil
fppiues since Jan. 1, 1899. This state
ment shows that the total shipments
amounted to in general merchandise
and forage to 24S,60S tons, and of lum-
/ Der to IS, 3S1 $50 feet. Of this quantity
there were shipped in foreign vessels
/ of general merchandise and forage Z05,-
576 tons. and of lumber 37,11,932 feet;
in American vessels the general mer-
chandise and forage was only 45,G56
| tons and the lumber I 1895 feet.
