He repeatedly anticipated the pro-

"You will" he said "hear charges

Some idea of the remarkable reiu-

United States at one time excelled, is
iound in the government report on the
total tonnage Of merchant vessels built
in the United States in the fiscal year
ending June 80. In that time 1853
vessels of 5lO,S65 gross tons were con-
structed; this is the largest tonnage in
half century and has been exceeded
only twice in American history. A strik-
ing feature Of the report is the state
ment that during the twelve months l22
steel steam vessels of 36O,6S5 tons were
built, by far the greatest tonnage Of
this description in the history OF the

this. however, is found in the fact that
