from its rulings in the first case and the
case was heard upon substantially the
same statement of facts as appeared on
the former appeal, which is reported in 175

tors held a caucus to-day to hear report
from the minority members OF the Mer-
chant Marine Commission.
Senator Martin told his colleagues the
nature of the report to be made and of the
bill that will be introduced as the result
of the commissions hearings. He said he
considered the proposed measure equiva-
lent to shin subsidy. No action was taken
Icy the Democrats and no expression had
Indicating whether concerted action would
be taken against the bill.
Among the provisions Of the merchant
marine bill contemplated is one for the
payment OF subsidy of IS ton year
on American-buil; vessels: another for re-
batting the tonnage dues of American YES
sels and a third for Il larger premium on
twelve or fifteen mail ships to foreign
