with the Kidnapping Of Willie Whitla

BERLIN, March 2S,-Prince Won
Buelow's coalition OF the conserva.
hive, Liberal and Radical parties, ap-
parently has reached fatal crisis
over the scheme Of financial reform.
Ia the Reichstag yesterday Herr Won
Normann, the conservative leader on
the floor, informed the leader Of the
National Liberals, Herr, Basserman.
that the Conservatives were deter
mined to carry through financial re-
form without considering where they
would get a MAJORITY. This evidently
means with the assistance Of the eleri-
cal party which the government has
tabooed since the dissolution in 1906.
Herr Bassermann said:
You intend that as giving notice
az the termination Of the bloc
Herr Won Normann in reply said:
"The bloc can remain for other ma
tioual purposes" The National Lib
erals. however, held a caucus later and
voted to unanimously regard the Con-
servatiye communication as serving
notice Of the termination Of the bloc.
The caucus also decided to adhere to
the Liberal programme that taxes on

FEW AMERICAN FLAGS
University Discusses Question OF

CHICAGO. March 2s.-@One Of
The rarest sights to be seen on the
oceans Of the world today is a mer-
chant vessel sailing under American
colors.' says Professor John c.
Freeman Of Wisconsin. in commune
cation to the Chicago Association OF
Commerce.
Only once in the last eighteen
years" he declares, has there enter
ed the port Of Copenhagen, the largest
On the Baltic, a vessel flying the
American flag. That was during the
presidency Of Grover Cleveland.
@Why It is that our merchant ma
rine. which before the Civil War was
the greatest pride Of our country, has
become 50 Insignificant? One reason
is that during the war the Union COM
panies found it wise TO put their
liners under European management.
Since then the ship building states
have held Congress BY the nose with
. law which allows no vessel to carry
cur colors unless it is built in an
American ship yard. There are hun
dreds Of vessels owned by and man
ned by Americans and carrying Amer
ican cargoes compelled to sail under.

The new British patent act of 1907 provides that, in order to retain his patent rights in Great Britain, the pat entee must either manufacture the patented article in the United King dom to an extent which the law de- scribes as adequate, or else he must furnish satisfactory reasons why this is not done. The Controller-General of Patents decides the question of what may constitute an adequate nnanufac- ture. He has revoked the patent of the Yale & Towne Manufacturing Com pany of Stamford in the United King dom, affecting rim locks. Commenting upon this decision. the Hartford Times says:
 case makes it evident that the au- thorities intend to follow a policy of rigid construction In Canada, where a similar law obtains, the interpreta- manufacturers who. have taken out patents in the Dominion are not ser iously embarrassed. The new British patent act, in view of the strict in terpretation which is being put upon it's provisions, is a most important piece of industrial and economic leg islation. It involves a policy of in direct protection It is designed to force foreign patenteeS to engage in manufacturing operations in the Unit ed Kingdom. It carries a menace perhaps not serious, but a menace nevertheless-to the industrial activ- ities of the United States.
 Tme American manufacturer who enjoys any considerable trade in pat ented articles with Great Britain, must if he wishes to hold that trade, not only establish branch factory there but must therein manufacture an "ad- eQuate' quantity, a phrase capable of such interpretation as may transfer much employment from this country to the United Kingdom.

THE
 PUBLIC UTILITIES PLAN

The latest proposition in connection with the public utilities question, is to screafe the desired commission. but fo ssdraw it's teeth in advance. It is proposed to authorize the commission to hear complaints as to service and xates but to stipulate that it shall not 1e invested with power to either change the details of service or to fix xates This would practically deprive me comzndssion of the powers most l5rgently. desired by the people. It w0u1d, however, leave the prevention of "stoc1r watering in the commis- sionse hands. a very important power which would prevent the imposition pf higher rates in order to pay divi- dends on wind and water"
 Buf the power of compelling the re- Auction of overhigh rates is far too in- porfant to the people to be lightly cast oside, as proposed. Limitation of the eommissiou's function to the hearing ok complaints, with no power of rem derinx decision after the taking of evil dence seems rankly absurd. It is no satIsfection to be assured that the coxnmission may report its findings to Inc Governor or the General Assembly. what the people want, is relief-not tho mere pouring of their grievances into the ears of a powerless comrnis- sfon That there are extortionate eherI1s being made by more or less public service corporations. is unques- t1onably a fact; of what benefit would It be to prove that fact if there is no Available remedy?
 The proposition under discussion looks very like an attempt to emascu- IafA the public utilities commission pInn into almost complete ineffective eess. Not daring to reject a plan so gfron6ly supported by public senti- ment, the evident scheme is to draw ff6 teeth" and then toss it as a sop to the popular whale. Foreshadowings of the intention of the presiding officers of 8enate and House in the construction of the special committee, indicate that this scheme Is ''in the works" and stlaat the committee will be so consti- tuted as to carry it into effect.

 In Federal Court

Juneau. May 1S.-The United States revenue cutter Rush has arrived from Sitka with the Captain and crew of the Japanese sealing schooner Kaisen, which was seized in Redoubt Bay on May 4 for cruising within the three mile limit. The alleged poachers were taken to the Federal jail. The skins seized on the schooner will be held pending a jury's verdict.
 All the evidence against the Japanese is the testimony of a number of Ind ians who told the authorities that they discovered the Japanese schooner in side the fishing limits.

When it was proposed that the Sem ate levy tariff duty of 25 cents O ton on iron ore. Senator Nelson of Minnesota said: s''I come from a state which produces more than half the iron ore of the country, and yet our people are not standpatters on that question. We are content with a re- duction from 40 cents to 25 cents a ton, and we would be content even if ore was put on the free list.''
 Senator Nelson and his constituents are evidently aware that the Steel Trust obtains most of its ore from Minnesota, and that the wages of it's miners are not in the least influenced by the tariff. The duty merely in creases the price of pig iron to the trusts customers, from whom this in creased cost passes on down to the purchasers of the finished iron or steel article. Only one interest is benefited. the trust which mines the ore.

n The Overman tariff amendment s<sreaches the sore spot' It provides that when a concern produces 50 per cent of any article, sells at lower prices abroad than here, and exacts exorbitant prices here, the President may suspend. it's tariff protection and thus compel a reduction of it's home prices. It is not at all likely that a Re publican Congress will allow this alnendment to be incorporated in the new tariff law; its protection would be extended the wrong way-that is, it would protect the American people from extortion.
