OFFERED IN THE HOUSE.
Democratic Substitute for the Ad-
ministration Ship Subsidy Bill.

The democratic ship subsidy bill, which
will be submitted as substitute for the
administration measure offered by Rep
resentative Humphrey, was introduced in
the House yesterday by Representative
Spight of Mississippi. ranking minority
member of the committee on merchant
marine and fisheries. The bill has the
Endorsement Of the minority of that
committee, and, according to its author,
is approved by practically the full demo-
cratic strength of the House, as well as
by a number Of republicans.
The principal features of the bill in
clude per cent reduction of all Gus
tom duties for ships owned or controlled
by citizens Of the United States, free
entry of all materials used in the con-
struction and repair of vessels built in
the United States, American registry of
foreign-built ships owned by citizens of
the United States and the taking away
from foreign built ships of the mail sub
sidy, which they now enjoy under the
law Of 1891.
Mr. Spight, In explaining his bill, laid
stress upon the provision which permits
the free entry into this country of ship
building material. He declared no one
could oppose logically that feature with
out declaring himself in favor of the
"steel trust" and that he believed his
bill would do more for the upbuilding of
an American merchant marine than any
ship subsidy bill yet devised

Counsel for Beef Trust
Considers 1t a Huge Joke

when public agitation was begun against

and L. F. Swift, directors of the Ma
tional Packing Company, were profuse in
explanations of the cause of high prices
1t was scarcity.
Now they have nothing to say about
the cold storage indictments returned In
Jersey City.
When the action of the Hudson county
grand jury first came to the attention OF
the packers they said the prosecution
was based on untenable grounds. They
smiled at the New Jersey attack.
They tntimated that all meats required
freezing and cold storage before they
could be marketed, and that the large
supplies kept near and In New York
were for the immense market of New
York. That the product was kept lonG
in storage was denied.
Not Taken Seriously.
j. Ogden Armour said:

Il do not believe that lie has taken the

Nervous Headache

II know fr"m experience that Dr. Miles, Anti
Pain Pills will relieve cases OF headache
quickly MRS. GEO. s. HENRY.
Sullivan. Wash.
In many persons the least ex-
citement, excrtion or irritation
causes headache. They cannot
attend church, theater, places Of
amusement, travel or mingle in a
crowd without suffering an at
tack of headache. The nerves of
the brain are easily excited, and
this irritable condition causes
pain. Such persons should take
DR.. Miles Anti-Pain Pills
before starting out, or on the first
indication of an attack. They in
variably relieve all such misery.
The first package will benefit; II not, you,
druggist will return your money.
