SHIP SUBSIDY
BILL SEEMS PROBABLE

Washington, Dec. PA ship sub
sidy bill THAT can pass congress and
meet the approval of the president
seems to be in sight. Congressman
Humphrey, of Washington, and mem
bers of the merchant marine commit
tee of the house visited Pres ident Taft
Friday and laid before him bill intro
duced at the last session with amend
ments that have since been made. The
amended bill met the approval of the
president, it is said.
Mr.. Humphrey and John Hays Ham
mopd, a member of the committee that
had the matter in charge, agreed that
the bill would not be made public un-
til it is introduced in congress on
January 4.
Further than to say that the amend
ed bill is neither straight ship sub
sidy measure proposing to subsidize by
tonnage and voyage, nor a mail sub,
sidy bill, no members of the commit
tee would tell of it's provisions.
It is known, however, that the
amendments were worked out with the
aid of the Merchant Marine League,
which has it's headquarters at Cleve-
land, O., and the bill will have the sup
port of the organization.

ALL RESERVATIONS IN
GOVERNMENTS CHARGE

Washington, Dec. 25.-That the fed.
eral government does not surrender
jurisdiction over an Indian reservation
simply because it is situated in state
and not in territory was held by the
supreme court this week in deciding
the case of the United States VS.. Har-
vey Sutton and Robert Miller.
These men were indicted in the Unit
ed States court for the eastern district
of Washington on a charge of having
introduced liquor upon the Yakima res
ervatiOn, but the indictments were
quashed because the liquor was taken
upon ground which had been allotted.
This. it was contended, had the effect
OF bringing the transaction within
state jurisdiction. The government ap-
pealed the case and in an opinion by
Justice Brewer the decision of the low
er court was reversed.

ZELAYA ESCAPES WITHOUT
INTERFERENCE BY u. S.

Managua, Dec. 27.-Jose Santos Ze-
laya, former president of Nicaragua,
has taken himself out of the country
and is now aboard the Mexican gun
boat Gen. Guerrero, bound for Salina
Cruz. Under cover of darkness Thurs
day morning Zelaya, accompanied by
heavily armed guard, proceeded to
Corinto, in which port the Mexican
warship had been lying for several
days close to the United States cruiser
Albany. Other American warships
swung at anchor in the harbor with
marines aboard, awaiting instructions.
Zelaya's coming was unheralded, but
a guard from the Guerrero received
him and soon he was safe under the
protection of the Mexican flag. At 5
o'clock in the afternoon the warship
weighed anchor and pointed out to sea.
A salute of thirteen guns was fired
fro mthe shore and hundreds of SOL
diers and citizens waved the former
dictator a farewell goodbye. Zelaya
stood alone and waved back in answer.
He uncovered when abreast of the Al
bany, but the American cruiser made
no response. Then he turned again
toward the shore, gazing until out of
sight.
Princeton Does Not Interfere.
Shortly before the arrival of Zelaya
at Corinto the United States gunboat
Princeton got up steam and proceeded
for San Juan Del Sur. Rumors pre-
vailed that the Princeton intended to
watch the movements of the Mexican
gunboat, but she proceeded directly
down the coast and her arrival at her
destination was later reported, great
ly relieving anxiety of Zelayan adher
ents.
The people were relieved when they
learned that Zelaya had gone and
President Madriz had begun his work
of reform.

GOVERNOR HAY FAVORS
DAYLIGHT SALOON LAW

Governor M. E. Hay does not advo-
cate statewide prohibition, according
to an interview at Spokane. The gov
ernor said:
'In explaining my position on the
liquor question Tat Davenport) l said
that the Republican party had gone
far enough on the liquor question at
the present time; that I was not in
favor of statewide prohibition law.
In fact, if had the making of the law.
and if it was absolutely in my hands,
[ would not pass statewide prohibi-
ton law, as l feel that the people of
the state are not yet ready for that
law
Il endorsed in strong terms the pres
ent local option law, stating that it is
one of the best ever passed, and I'M
til I ascertained the will of the people
through these various elections over
the state, was not in favor of the
party's taking any further steps on
this question.
Il stated that would not make any
recommendation to the next legisla-
ture as to changing this law, unless
it is discovered that some minor mat
tiers might need correction, but that
was going to ask the legislature to
pass a law known as the daylight sa-
loon law; that is, to permit the sale of
liquor only between sunrise and sun
set, no liquor to be sold after shutdown
and before sunrise. A law of this char
tcer has been passed by the Nebraska
legislature and has been sustained by
the supreme court"

FOR
ALASKA
IDEAS EMBODIED IN
BILL SOON TO BE IN
TRODUCED.
System to Resemble That of the Philip
pines Under Taft, Government Being
in the Hands of Governor and
CounciI-Acts of Council Subject to
Review.

Washington, Dec 81. President
Taft's ideas regarding the government
of Alaska have been embodied in a
bill which will be introduced by Sena-
tor Beveridge soon after congress re-
assemblies in January.
The bill will have the backing of the
administration. The measure places
governmental control of the territory
in the hands of a governor and council,
to consist of an attorney general, a
commissioner of the interior, COM
missioner of mines and commission
er of education and health, all appoint
ed by the president.
The governors salary is $4,000 a
year; that of each of the four commits
sioners, $500.
Each of the four judicial districts in
the territory will elect councillor to
sit with the council sixty days each
year to enact laws, the governor to
preside and cast the deciding vote in
the event of tie. Elective councillors
receive $25 a day. The governor has
the right of veto. All acts of the gov
ernor and council are subject to re-
view and approval or disapproval by
the president.
The powers of the governor are
much increased over those under the
present system.
The whole plan is somewhat similar
to the government administered in the
Philippines under the Taft commits
sion.

Recommendations for changes in
the present law regulating transporta-
ton companies are contained in the
twenty-third annual report of the in
terstate commerce commission to con-
gress. The report, however, is notable
rather for recommendations it does
not contain.
Five of the suggestions made by
the special committee selected by
President Taft to draft changes in the
existing interstate commerce act are
offered in the report. The commission
expresses its conviction that certain
amendments to present laws are nee
essary to enable it fully to accomplish
the purposes of congress. Briefly sum-
married. the proposed amendments are
as follows:
That binding physical valuation be
made of the inters tate railroads of the
country.
That the commission be given pow
er to prevent advances in rates or
to the disadvantage of the shipper
pending investigation of the proposed
change.
The commissions authority to es-
tablish a joint rate and through route
is limited to cases where no steam
ship route exists, and the commission
recommends that this limitation be
stricken out of the law, SO that it raay
establish a through route wherever it
is found desirable.
Earnings Were Enormous.
A further recommendation is that in
certain instances the shipper be per-
mitted to direct the intermediate rout-
ing of his traffic; that the law be so
amended as to give the commission au-
thority to enter corrective order up
on it's own motion. The commission
again calls to the attention of con-
gress the increasing importance of
federal control over railway capitaliza-
ton. The annual report of the COM
mission from the carriers show that
for the fiscal year ended June 80, 1908,
the gross operating revenues of all
railroads in the United States were
S2,461, 521 BAG, and the operating in
come derived by subtracting Operat-
ing expenses and taxes) was $685.
418,321.
For 1909 the operation revenue was
81, 494, $50 and the operating in
come $742,9S7, 191, indicating an in
crease for 1909 of $32, 594,244 in gross
earnings and S6,56S,S7O in net earn
ings. The average number of miles
operated in 1908 was 22S,164 and in
1909 233,OO2 The large increase in
net, as compared with gross earnings,
is accounted for by a reduction of op-
Grafton expenses in 1909 below that
of 1908 of $50, 224,9S3.
Since December 1, 1908, 35 indict-
ments for criminal violations of the
interstate commerce law have been re-
turned and AZ prosecutions have been
concluded. The fines collected under
indictments aggregated $3O4,233.S4.
The opinion is expressed that viola
tons of the law, such as rebating, are
decreasing. The number of men killed
coupling and uncoupling cars for each
1000 employees was three in 1893 and
one in 1908, while the number of in.
juries for each 1000 men employed in
this service was II in 1893 and 16 in
1908.
