BOUNTY ON EXPORTS FAVORED BY j. j. HILL
TO BUILD UP MERCHANT MARINE---
OPPOSES SUBSIDIES.

New York. May cJ.-JGmcs J. Uill.
president of tie Northern Securities
company and of the Great Northern
railway. appeared as witness be
fore the merchant marine commission,
the joint congressional committee
which is investigating the causes of
the decline of United States shipping,
in order 10 suggest measures for rem
eiial legislation. The first thing nee
essarry,'' said Hill, lis to create de
sire in the people of this country to
own ships Ii is purely commercial
question. II these is profit in it peo-
pie, will engage in il.
What the country wants is mar
ket. Outside of our agricultural prod
ucts - cotton, grain, oil = there are
very few things we can export be
cause cost Of production Is so high.
We cannot sell them. If we could
carry those products in our own bot
toms it would be a source OF great
profit. They can build ships in Eng
land much cheaper than here.
/ hive had experience in building two
ships-the largest freight carriers in
the world = and 1 don't want any
more. I would rather undertake TO
build 1000 miles Of railroad than two

ships IT has taken four years instead
of two, what through strikes and other
delays.
IF we are going to buy a merchant
marine out of the treasury of the cOun-
try it won't last long We must give
people confidence to invest I'm Japan
they have built UP a large marine;
they have paid tonnage. but 1 do not
remember tbedetails l don't
think you viii make much OF Il sue
cess of buying merchant marine; it
won't stay with you You must get
people interested. but there does not
seem to be much disposition Oh the
part of people to go into shipping
In answer to a Question Hill said
that his two big ships cost 2S TO 30
per cent. more To build here than
abroad. adding: Besides. we have very
few sailors. even on pleasure ships Go
to Puget sound-the heads of the un-
ions are the boarding hOusekeepers- y
man who is dead broke and broken
down by eXcesses is the man sent to
US"

governmental aid But is the govern
ment able to 20 faE enough" asked

der Trial at Rising
Sun.

Rising Sun, Ind, May 25.-The fate
of James S. Gillespie. Myron Barbour
and Mrs. Carrie Barbour, his wife,
and Mrs. Belle Seward, charged with
the murder of Elizabeth Gillespie, will
soon hang upon the deliberations of
the jury. The direct examination of

all connection with the crime.

cGl Myron Barbour ito answer one
question to which objection had been
made, provided the court admits it.
1t was the question which sought to
bring out the cause of the witness
unfriendlineSs to Elizabeth Gillespie.

pends on whether the court limits the
arguments. Both Shay. fer the de-
fense, and Spaan, for the state, have
said they need an entire day to present
their views. Harry McAIullen, for the
state, and Griffiths, for the defense,
will also address the jury.

Hill. IF you VIII admit foreign built
ships free you will get merchant ma
rine quickly. If you are will
ing to put ii tonnage tax on all that
goes to foreign market, everything
that goes out of the country. even to

is an inexhaustible supply of pure
soap. One may enter the mine with a
butchers knife and cut as large a
piece as he wants. 1t Is beautifully
notified and on being exposed TO the

is OF clay OF fine texture, and it con-
tains boracic acid, soda and borate Of
lime Its color is given 1t by the iron
and other minerals.
In its natural state it is rather strong
in alkali and removes ink and other
stains readily. At one time 1t was
used In all the lavatories on the Pull
man cars. but as soon as this fact be-
came generally known the cakes were
carried away by travellers as souvenirs.
The railroad company could not sup
ply the demand. so Il was forced to

contests by counties instead of by dis

central committee in the contest be
tween the conservatives and radicals.

follows: CoRRervatives-Cle Clermont. I

the radicals ii means two cOnRression-
al districts, which with the 18th make
three districts that the radicals Sc
cured in the temporary contest while
the conservatives secured six.
Some Districts Are Mixed.
When the delegates met by congress
sional districts the conservatives car
ried thirteen of the twenty-one dis
tricts for members of the new state
central committee and other commit
tees The radicals have representa-
tives on these committees only from
six districts, the two Cleveland dis
tricts classed as doubtful. There were
mixed conditions in several districts
showing that the conservatives had no
leadership. In the Fifth a. p. Saun-
