MASSACHUSETTS SHIPS
Chairman Hugh Bancroft Would Ex-
empt Them From Taxation

Boston-Chairman Hugh Bancroft
of the port directors before the com
mittee on taxation favored a resolve
for a constitutional amendment which
would exempt from taxation all ships
and vessels registered at any Massa-
chusetts port and owned in whole or
in part by an American citizen or as
sociation.
Mr.. Bancroft said the question for
this particular legislation arose from
desire to put Boston-owned lines
OF steamers from here to the southern
States and Panama Canal. IL was
found that local capital will not be-
come interested in anything but n
Massachusetts corporation and the
tax on the Massachusetts corpora
tions is such as to be prohibitive for
investment purposes.

BRISTOL BRANCH OF B. & M.
Where Would the Funds for Construc-

Concord, n. H.-IRumors were again
in circulation last week that the Bris-

construction, while it would effect a
great saving to the road, making the
distance much less and avoiding the
heavy grades at Ashland. Should 1t
be built it is probably that all the
heavy freights and some portion OF
