Features of Measure Under Considera-

commission and the presentation of a SUBJ

The last Congress has been busily at work
curing the recess. The investigations ara
almost concluded now and the rough d-a 1T
OF the proposed bill is said to be under con-
sideration
In it present shape the bill is said to be
a mcGif1ed subsidy proposition, taking in
all classes of vessels. and likely to be less
OBJECTIONABLE 10 the opponents of subsidies
than any bill thus far presented
Inc main objects sought by the commits
sion were to avoid bill which would prove
a heavy drain upon the government reve-

the proposed aid to shipping was in the
interest of but one branch of the industry
Ine principal features of the rough draft
now under consideration are said to be
these:
First. an increase of the tonnage tax, to.

Second. elaboration of the mail subsidies

Third system of discriminating duties,
so framed as to invite retaliation. They
would apply in the main to merchandise
which was not in the nature of direct COM
merce between the United States and Euro
pean countries. The effect of this applica-
ton would first be felt upon the steamship
lines which now compete with American
vessels in the deep-sea trade
