With the engine running wild and the
main steam pipe broken a few minutes
later, the lives of the crew OF eight men on
the passenger steamer fremont, which
runs between Bangor and Manset, we're
imperilled Thursday night, until the en-
gineer, William Hall, of Brewer, succeeded
at considerable risk in reaching and clos
ing the main valve. There were no pas
sengers aboard.
The steamer had just made the landing
at Mckinley and was leaving for South
west harbor. Opposite Long ledge the
coupling on the shaft broke and the en-
CINE ran wild. Before it could be shut
down the main steam pipe and the ex-
haust pipe were broken, filling the engine
room with steam. 1t was considered a
wonder that none Of the crew was scaIded
before the steam was shut off.
The steamer was anchored and a boat
sent to shore to summon help. Several
motor boats from Manset towed the
steamer in.

The Proposed Tariff Bureau.

The republican m smbers of the a.
nance committee have compieted the
draft OF the section creating the new
tariff bureau. This bureau is to be
formed by consolidating the existing
bureaus of statistics and manufac-
turers, now under the supervision of
the secretary of commerce and labor;
the bureau of trade relations, now a
part OF the department of state, and
the division of customs, OF the treas
ury department. The new bureau
will be made part Of the treasury
department, and an additional assis-
tant secretary OF the treasury will be
provided for who will have immediate
jurisdiction over il.
A second section of the Senate SUBJ
stitute provides for special agents, to
be appointed by the President, to col
Ject information here and abroad con-
corning foreign customs duties for the
use OF the President in administering
the maximum minimum clause of the
tariff bill. They will, of course, work
in conjunction with the new tariff
bureau.
The advocates of the tariff commits
sion plan threaten to make vigorous
attack on the bureau plan if it does
not meet their expectations. They
have no objection to the Investigate
ing body being known as bureau in
stead of commission, but they will
insist that it shall have both the abili-
ty, and the power 70 find out tarfl
facts, here and abroad, and 10 make
public its findings
