trouble, so will Wilson and Bryan
maintain neutrality now | have no
idea tAat those who will control
this proposed government ship cor
poration would be stupid or foolish
enough to buy an interned ship of
belligerent without previously, by
diplomacy, finding out if other bel
ligerents objected to it."
AT the outset of his speech, Senator
Root had referred to the attitude
of the democrats on the shipping bill
as "a conspiracy of silence and de-
precated the fact that such debate
had not been permitted as would
enable the country to form n correct
jurgment of the measure. He ex-
pressed regret that any shade of
party politics had fallen on this bill.
adding:

Judge Mcbride was seriously con-
sidering ordering Murphy hanged, but
friends interceded just about the time

Murphy drove around the wrong side

it.
