The Indiana vote heretofore had gone
solidly for Marshall.

field. II was rumored that Senator Ray
ner, Of Maryland, might seek opportu-
nifty to defend the progressives.
The New. Mexico delegation demanded
a poll after the vote had been reported,

500. 90 bushels for Sherman is given by
D. G. Stephens, superintendent of the

WOULD MAKE CANAL FREE.
House Passes Bill to Favor Ameri-
can Shipping.


Washington D. C.-American sbips
in the coastwise trade will be given
free use of the Panama canal. This
was determined by the house when
Representative Doremus' bill giving
free privileges to American ships was
incorporated in the Panama canal bill
by final vote of lat to 1875. AS the
bill stands ready for final passage,
American ships engaged in the coast
wise trade are to be relieved of all
canal charges, while all foreign owned
ships will be subjected to tolls.
The canal bill passed the house by a
vote of 206 to So. 1t carries drastic
provisions prohibiting railroads from
owning or controlling directly or in
directly steamships which would com
pete against their land lines. 1t
grants free passage through the canal
to other American vessels.
The house rejected Representative
thousands amendment to the canal
Dill permitting railroad ownership of
steamships, but denying them free
passage through the canal and author
izing the president to decide where
question of ownership arose.
On separate vote the question of
free tolls was won by vote of lat to
l26. AS adopted, the bill fixes the
maximum tolls for foreign vessels at
Sl.25 for each registered ton. The
prohibition against railroads owning
steamships becomes effective July /,
1914.
The Interstate Commerce commits
sion is given jurisdiction to determine
whether a railroad completes with
steamship lines owned by it. This
provision relates to the great lakes as
well as coastwise traffic.

Washington, d. C.-Convinced that
the Cuban government is underesti-
mating the strength of the Cuban rev.
olution, where 5000 negroes are in re-
volt, the State department has re-
quested the Navy department to send
a warship and marines to Guanta-
namo, the scene of rebel activities, to
protect American lives and property.
State department officials plan to rush
the transport Prairie, with 500 mar
ines, to Guantanamo, from Philadel-
phia.
With the gunboats Paducah and
Nashville already on the scene, it is
believed that this force will be suffi-
cient to protect American interests
without sending a battleship. Off
cials of the state department ex-
planned that they considered action
necessary because serious disturb
ances are reported in the province of
Oriente, where Americans have heavy
interests. American property there
has been damaged and American lives
threatened.
