WASHINGTON, Jan. sl.--Robert P.
schwerin. general manager Of the N
cihe Mail Steamship Company. was be-
fore the Senate Committee on Inter
0ceanie Canals today. In reply to the
recent criticism Of Secretary Taft to
the effect that the Steamship Company
wilfully allowed freight to eongest at
Panama, schwerin said the Secretary's
statement was either made through
malice or ignorance Of causes Of the
difficulties which be complained of. He
asserted all commercial shipments were
held up by movement Of canal mater
ials.. The understanding was that the
United States had bought railroad TO
build the canal and cared nothing for
commercial business and it was said by
Secretary Taft, Mr. Wallace, Admiral
Walker and others connected with the
building Of the canal, that commerce
was secondary to the movement Of
canal materials. Senator Knox asked
J Sehwerin II he had not smarted little
under Taft's criticism. Schwerin said
he thought it too bad to be held up to
ridicule and disgrace by high official
Of the United States when doing every
thing to uphold the American flag ii a
business that had been almost driven
of the seas. He denied the Pacific Nail
was connected with any transcontinen.
