SKILLED SEAMEN NEEDED
TO HANDLE LIFEBOATS
Senate Takes Up Subject, Along
With Volturno Disaster, In Con-
sidering Measure.

Need of skilled seamen to handle life
boats on ocean liners and the Volturno
dsaster were brought up today when the
senate began work on the seamen's
servitude bill. Andrew Feruseth. repre-
sentative OF the Seamans Union, In the
effort to secure legislation improving con
ditions of sailors gave out a statement
attributing part of the loss of life on
the Nolturno to the inefticiency Of the
lifet oat men
The prominent fact i'm connection with
the loss" said he, $50 far as the informa-
ton Is at present available is a lack of
skilled men TO handle the boats. The one
supreme test of skill i'm n scaman's ability
To lower boat and get her away from
the side OF the vessel when a gale is
blowing"
The Senate met today under an agree
ment to take up the bill and dispose of
IL by October %. Ii Is identical with
one to which President Taft gave "a
pocket veto.
While the Department of Commerce
through either It's steamboat inspection
service or the bureau OF navigation.

vestigatine the Nolturno disaster the
ofhcials of the bureaus nevertheless
will keep in close touch with other

ANSWERS RAILWAY SUIT
Utilities Commission Seeks to
Prevent Injunction Against
"Car FuIF' Order.

The public utilities commission late
this afternoon filed answer to the suit
for Injunction recently brought against
1t in the Supreme Court Of the District
of Columbia by the Washington Railway
and Electric Company. to prevent the
enforcement of the car full' regula-
tons and the rule denying to passenge. s
the Fight to occupy the running board of
the front platforms of cars.
The commission admits the charge that
no witnesses were sworn and examined at
the hearing given the railroad company.
but says this happened because no neces-
sity arose for swearing witnesses. 1t
also admits that no notice of the pro-
posed orders was given to the railroad
companies. but says that they had full
hearing and that the commission decided
that such orders promulgated by the
former commission were practicable and
valuable and should be retained.
The commission insists that the orders
in question were properly passed and that
it is now of opinion that such regula-
tons are expedient and reasonably neces-
sary for the convenience and protection
of passengers using street cars. Francis
II. Stephens appears as counsel for the
commission.

URGES TREATYS REPEAL
Senator MARITIME Would End
Hay-Pauncefote Pact
With England.

Senator MARITIME Of New Jersey today
urged the Senate to recommend repeal Of
the Hay-Pauncefote Panama treaty with
Great Britain on the ground that 1t inter
feres with too many American rights. He
said he had received many protests that
the tariff bills 8 per cent shipping rebate
was violation of the terms of the treaty
The senator added that he preferred a re-
peal Of the treaty, rather than repeal of
the per cent rebate in the tariff law. and
predicted that the United States would
have the best Of the argument if foreign
countries tried to make commercial re-
prsals because of the 5 per cent rebate.
IF Germany should elect to try it on
u.s." said he, I'VE would shut off her sup
plies of cotton. copper and phosphates.
To Great Britain we would give the same
medicine Should South America throw
down the gauntlet We could shut out
their coffee and rubber for a little
and ruin would stare them in the face.
Japan needs our cotton and besides this
we are her best market. No senator or
citizen wants commercial war or any
other kind of war, but other nations
grant important favors to their indus
tries"
