AT WASHINGTON
Proposed Ship Subsidies.

Subventions of IS per gross ton an
nually; subsidies for the carrying OF
mails from Atlantic coast and Gulf of
Mexico ports to South and Central
America and Cuba, and from Pacific
coast ports to Japan, China, the Phil
ippines, Mexico. Central America and
the Isthmus of Panama; a tonnage tax
on foreign vessels entering United
States ports; the creation of a naval
volunteer service, and the encourage
ment of apprentices on ships in for
eign trade are provided for in a bill
agreed upon by the joint merchant
and marine commission, which sub
mitted its report to Congress last
week.
The commission, composed OF five
senators and i've representatives, was
created during the last session of Con-
gress in response to a recommenda-
tion by President Roosevelt in his an
nual message December z, 1903. An
exhaustive investigation was made by
the commission of the conditions Of
the American merchant marine and
American commerce, with a view to
ascertaining the most feasible means
for their development. Hearings were
conducted during the year at nearly all
the important shipping and CONNER
cial centers of the United States.
The report deals at length with the
handicap upon American shipping Gre
ated by the subsidies and bourties be-
slowed upon most Of the merchant
fleets of foreign governments. which
is placed in the van of the lower first
cost of foreign ships and the lower
cost of maintenance of these ships.
due. in both cases, primarily, to lower
wages.
table is given showing that nearly
all of the foreign powers grant ship
ping subsidies. France pays more
than SS,000,000 and eight other for
eign governments more than S1,000,0O0
each for the encourag cement Of their
merchant marine.
AS the first essential step IN the re-
habilitation of merchant shipping the
commission proposes to create force
of naval volunteers, composed of the
best officers and men of American
merchant ships and deep-sea fishing
vessels. Necessarily small at first,
means for healthy and sure eNpan-
sion of the force is provided by the
payment of substantial retainers as an
inducement to enroll. 1t is understood
that officers and men shall receive
their seamen's pay, besides this re-
tainer during their period OF actual
instruction. The Navy Department
has asked for reserve of 10000 men
in the bills it has presented to Con
gress.
The report quotes the commissioner
of navigation to show that not more
than 10000 American citizens are in
cluded in the enrolment of employees
on all the American vessels on salt
water, which go out of sight Of land
for any time during the year. Com
menting on this lack of material for
naval volunteer force the commission
says:
"out of these 10000 officers and men
probably not more than one-half would
be eligible for naval volunteer SER
vice. 1t is therefore manifest
that shipowners must not only be en-
rouraged to employ these naval vol
unteers, but encouraged to build more
ships to develop an increased paval
service, as well as to advance the in
terests of commerce"

SUICIDE DUE TO
DESPONDENCY
WELL-KNoWN YOUNG MAN KILL
ED HIMSELF AT HOTEL IN
CHARLOTTE, N. c.

Charlotte, N. c., Jan. 19-George
Ellis Eddins, a wellknown young man
of this city, committed suicide at his
room in the Piedmont inn at an early
hour this morning. Dependency.
caused by continued i'll health. is said
to have been responsible for the rash
act.
Eddins was last seen at the supper
table at the Piedmont inn last night.
He left the dining table saying that
he was going to his room that he felt
worse than usual, and expected to
retire early, hoping that sleep would
benefit him. About Z o'clock this
morning a colored girl, who is employ
eel by Mrs. Hamilton, proprietress of
Piedmont Inn, went to Eddins's room
to call him for breakfast. She knock
ed, but receiving no answer, opened
the door.
Lying in a pool if his own blood,
she found the body of the unfortunate
young man.

SCHOONER HAZE
SAILS FOR BILOXI
LEFT YESTERDAY AFTERNOON
AND WILL BE USED AS A
PILOT BOAT.

The schooner Haze, which has been
in the fishing trade for the past ten
or twelve years, sailed yesterday for
Biloxi, where she will in future be
used as a pilot boat. The vessel has
been purchased by some of the pilots
of Biloxi, who will use her in running
opposition pilotage, as was done in
Pensacola a year. or more ago.
Some necessary repairs will be made
upon the vessel. but this will not in
terfere with the work of the vessel,
and will be done at such times as the
schooner is idle. Some additions to
sails and spars were made before the
departure of the schooner from Pen
sacola, in order that she might be in
readiness to go into business imme-
diately upon reaching Biloxi.
The pilots at that place have be-
come dissatisfied, and several of them
have withdrawn from the association,
and decided upon purchasing a vessel
and entering into opposition TO the
old association. One of the members
was sent here to buy a fast sailing
craft, and after looking over the va
rious schooners for sale, decided upon
the Haze.
Bunks and other necessary fixtures
for the comfort of the pilots will be
arranged within the next few days, or
after her arrival at Biloxi.

PRETTY LAUNCH
REACHES HERE
FRANK LEWIS, WELL KNOWN IN
PENSACOLA, NOW OWNS A
HANDSOME Vessel.

A pretty launch, measuring about
forty feet over all reached Pensacola
yesterday from Baltimore. 1t is own
ed by Frank Lewis, who is well known
in the city, as he has conducted the
business of "bum-boat man. since the
North Atlantic feet began to visit this
port. Mr.. Lewis will use the launch
in connection with his business, as he
pays frequent visits to the various
vessels of the squadron, and as a con-
sequence needs a vessel of this nature.
A Brooklyn paper, in speaking of
the launch recently said:
The 4O-fOot speed launch built for
Frank Lewis, of 392 Hudson avenue,
by Maurice Reardon. was launched
yesterday from the latter's shipyard
at Sand Bay, Canarsie, A preliminary
trial was given the boat, which proved
very satisfactory.
At the termination of the trial it
was decided to shift the ballast for
ward, as the high speed of the engine
tended to run the boats bow too much
out of the water. This will be done,
and after a canopy cabin is construct
ed the boat will be ready for delivery
to the owner, who will use her around
the bay for short time and then
proceed south by the inside course,
where he will use the boat in the in
terest of business and pleasure COM
bined during the winter.
The new craft is a handsome ex-
ample of the shipbuilder's art and will
prove an exceptionally seaworthy
boat.
The length over all is 40 feet. with
a water line of SO feet and beam OF
8 feet. The depth of hull amidships
is feet, while the draft aft is 8 feet
and forward Is inches.
The keel is of white oak with frames
of the same material centered u
inches.
One-inch white. cedar, copper fast
ened, forms, the planking, while cy-
press is used for the dacks.
The eOmbing and interior finish is
of oak, ash and cypress, finished in
natural wood. The boat has plumb
bow and overhanging stern, giving an
appearance of stability and entire alb
sence of the freak in her lines.
The motive power is furnished by a
5-hOrse power Strelenger three-cylfn-
der motor, capable of developing. 23y

Another sensible fashion of today is to
comb ehild's hair naturally. without
resorting TO crimping irons and without
distorting the little head with tightly
drawn braids. Many OF us have seen
children whose eyebrows were not GER
tain which way to grow by reason of
the pulling of tightly braided hair away
from the forehead Neither is it proper
to allow dropping curls TO fall over one
eye of a child, with the frequent result
of making a child cross-eyed While
children still wear their hair brushed
loosely to one side and confined with a
bow, the hair is tied away from the
eyes.
