 The Register has alsb claimed that the
 business that should be going through
 this port has been diverted to go through
 the port of New Orleans, swelling its ex- port business Now what are the real facts? The treasury department of the United
 States government shows the following. EXPORTS iUd $ll6SI ,l00 1910 27,526,246 New Orleans
 1901 .$152 776. .558
 1910 140 8,56o This shows that Mobiles export busi- ness has increased since 1901, to a frac- ton over 132 per cent in comparison with a decrease for New Orleans of nearly per cent. From these figures the public can judge how far the Register has been accurate as to its statements during this controversy.
 ,, On account of the general depression in
 business in the United States during the last three years, and especially on ac4 count of the small cotton crop in the southern states last year, all exports from
 the gulf ports fell off. but the showing made for Mobile. This is due to the fact
 that this port is free from the onsrous
 charges on commerce moving through other gulf ports.
 Now I will give the figures taken from
 the report of the treasury department of
 the United States government, showing
 the exports through Mobile and New Or-
 leans for the last thDee fiscal years as l follows:

NO CHANGE IN
INAUGURATION
House Lacked One Vote Of
Enough to Pass Amend
msent Resolution

Washington, May 17.-By the lack
Of one vote the house today declined
to accord the necessary two-thirds
vote to submit to the several states
Of the union the question Of changing
the date of the inauguration Of presi-
dent and vice president from March
to the last Thursday in April.
For about an hour advocates and
opponents of this proposition aired
their views upon the advantages and
disadvantages of making the date Of
the Inauguration about seven weeks
later than now fixed by the constitu-
tion in the hope that the crowds that
come to Washington might enjoy
pleasant weather while seeing the new
administration inducted into once.
The vote was upon the resolution
offered by Mr.. Henry of Texas. In
the voting on the resolution there was
no indication of party lines for or
against it. Representative Harrison
of New York headed the opposition to
the measure.
When the call of the roll was COM
pleted word was passed around the
chamber that the resolution had been
carried. Then came to the desk Of
the speaker, Mr.. Loudenslager Of
New Jersey, Republican, and Mr.. Kim
kead of New Jersey, they having been
paired. Agreeing to set aside their
pair they both voted against the reso-
luton and In so doing carried the day
for the opponents to the measure.
The vote then stood 139 to 20, one less
than tho necessary two-thirds.

Efforts to Defeat the Admins.
tration Measure Failed in
the Senate

Washington, May 17-Whatsoever
may be the fate of the other provi-
sions of the railroad bill, the propo-
sal to establish a court of commerce
will be retained. the senate taking
Affirmative action in that direction, as
the house had previously done. The
vote was obtained on q motion by Sen
ator Cummins to strike out the entire
six sections providing for the es-
tablishment Of the court, the result
being in the negative, 28 to 81.
The entire negative vote was cast
by Republicans, although eight Repub-
ltcans voted with the Democrats in
support Of the motion. The affirma-
tive Republican votes were cast only
except in the instances of Senator's
Borah and Crawford, by the most pro-
nounced of the insurgents, Messrs.
Beveridge, Bristow, Clapp, Cummins.
Dolliver and LaFollette.
The action was q distinct triumnf
for the regular Republican organiza-
ton and was the first fruit of re-
cent efforts to solidify the admins
tration forces so as to insure the car
rying out of the administration pro-
gram.
Following this action, Mr.. Bacon
presented an amendment substituting
the United States Circuit courts for
the court of commerce in the trial OF
commerce cases, but it was voted
down without division. A negative
fate also met an amendment by Mr..
Cummins reducing the membership of

Following these votes Mr.. Cummins
offered amendments modifying his
substitute for the stock and bond pro-
visions and substituting for the Unit

disposed of during the day.
The voting followed a day Of debate
on the Cumnlins action to strike out

made by Senators Cummins, Stone,

Mr.. Qapp found in the provision

appealed to the senate to continue

Paris, May 17.-Empress Eugene,

of seeing descendant of the great
Napoleon on the throne of France.
Through her private secretary she

lengthy letter from the latter.
The communication sets forth that
the empress intends to remember the
faithful soldiers of the Emperor Ma
poleon III. There will be only one
condition attached to her majesty's
generosity. 1t is thus set forth. "As
her majesty admits that every old
soldier Of the empire has remained
faithful to the sacred cause, to the
imperial eagles. it is necessary, so
long that her majesty may be assured
of devotion of which she. or rather.
the legitimate heir to the throne, will
perhaps have need sooner than one
thinks, that she receives from you a
letter in which she will find the ex-
