BRITONS BUILD
SHIPS CHEAPER
Argument Adduced on Proposed
Eight Hour Law-Opposed
by Employers.

Washington, Feb. 28.-"Did you
mean to say that the laborers. in the
shipyards at Glasgow can do 60 per
cent more work with the same tools
and in the same time that can be done
by American ship yard works?"
James O'Connell, president of the
International Association of Ma
chtnists, asked this during the prog
ress Of a hearing on the eight-hour bill
before the committee on education
and labor. e.,
Wallace Bowney. a shipbuilder,
representing the New York Metal
Trades Council, replied:
do mean to. say that most emphat-
ically. It has cost me, in the last five
years, 100000, in addition to gray hairs
to find it out. I spent 100000 in purchas-
ing the best tools, in acquiring knowledge
of methods in Glasgow, and tried for two
years to induce American workmen to
learn that by doing piece work they
could accomplish more. They would not
see 1t and the shipbuilding interests have
suffered. In addition the laborers have
suffered, for. the weekly payrolls have been
decreased. 49,.
An arbitrary. eight-hour day. which
would prohibit overtime of any kind
would place handicap on the American
shipbu1lder that would lose for him all
opportunity Of participating in foreign
trade. .'-.s~' ''i-i E&-zt' =; '".is- - - : ~

, SNAKE VENOM -
Taken in Growing Doses to Learn Its
Value as q Medicine. -.

Ann Arbor (3Iich.) Cor. Chicago Tribune.
So Upper classmen of the Alpha Sigma fraternity
at the University of Michigan tonight decided
to drink an unknown poison till its effects On
science: The Alpha Sigma is homeopathic
fraternity affiliated with the New York frater-
nifty, now drinking the venom of the cobra. DR..
a. 80. 1bershof, head of the Michigan fraternity.
will keep the name of the poison secret til the
test is complete 1t will be "a hitherto untried
poison and not a snake venom.
Beginning with minute draught, taken once
every two hours, the potion will be increased
every week till the men can stand quantity of
poison which might be fatal at first. This will
continue for several months, until the men be-
gin to have slight Illness with poison symp-
be made every two hours and will be sent to New
York for classification
A searching threefold examination of physical,
mental and moral character is given each pa
ttent before his experiment begins. Not only
his bodily ailments but his mental eccentr1cities
are recorded by each man with conscientious
thoroness.
A bad habit, bad temper, or other idiosyncrasy
is to be tested under the drugs effect as thoroly
as the heart action. Ordinary bad habits are
to be continued during the poison period; smok-
stop. '.~ .@''AS@
The treatment will begin in February and in
three months second threefold examination will
complete the test of one drug. If no serious
results are felt, the Michigan boys expect then
to try snake poison. OF the sixteen members in
the fraternity. only half have the courage to try
the poison, while freshmen are excluded
Accurate knowledge Of every effect produced
by the poison Is the object Of the test. Ac-
cord1ng to the theory of homeopathy, snake poi
sons will become useful medicines when ply
edge of what human functions vii be- affected
thereby. 49, ~ -

All Are Discouraged.

There is no responsiveness among
the rank and file. Democratic leaders
here wonder what has come over the
spirit Of the dreams Of the old party.
They say the prevailing apathy, which
looks almost like hopelessness is some
thing beyond their comprehension.
The only aspirant for the democratic
nomination who seems to have vital
ity and push is Willie Hearst.
Nor is this the worst Of it, in the
opinion Of the democratic leaders.
They are themselves discouraged. This
is not due altogether to the failure of
party opinion to concentrate upon can
didates. It is in large part due to the
failure of the leaders themselves to
get together on an issue.
Germans Hope Destroyed.
The party has been seeking the man
and has found him not It has been
seeking the issue and has not discov-
cred it. Mr.. German and some of his
followers thought they could find the
issue in the Panama business and that
If they could not actually defeat the
treaty they might at least emphasize
their charge that President Roosevelt
has acted with so much rashness in
that affair: as to prove their conten-
ton that he is an unsafe man.
But this hope was dashed to pieces
when the democrats Of the senate di-
vided into two equal parts on the
treaty. Then Mr.. German started his
campaign against any enlargement of
the navy and in the house democratic
members openly repudiated that pol
icy and declared in favor of large APP
preparations for naval enlargement.
John Sharp Williams, the leader of
the minority of the house, has de-
clared more than once in favor of
making the democratic issue tariff re-
form and nothing but tariff reform;
this has aroused no enthusiasm
among the faithful. Amid all these
discouragments the democratic leaders
here refuse to be absolutely cast down.
If nothing else occurs to help them out
