tarv of Commerce.

New Orleans, Jan. eff private
shining interests of the United States
continue TO act unjustly toward the
simmer. and they have that power now,
we will crush them" declared Secre-
tsry Redfeld to-day at luncheon IN.

"Steamship officials who have con,
versed with me regarding the proposal

oneration have been told that govern
ment ships never would be placed IN
oompetition with privately owned yes
sells if the companies will deal squarely
with the American people, Mr.. ked-
field said.
Mr.. Redfeld answered formal pro
test against the ship purchase BILL
which the association recently sent 10
Washington. One Of the points brought
ont in the protest was that operation
of such a law would involve the United
States in difficulties with foreign
Good men and wise have come TO
me with the statement that operation
of ships now by the government would
involve US in international difficulties,
he said THAT is funny. II really IS
Joke. Ny department now has offers
to purchase ships that could not get us
into trouble. Furthermore, there is no
nation in the world that would seek a
cause for trouble with us now. We are
the only nation that can furnish sup
plies to the rest of the world. They
need us and want our friendship"
The Secretary declared it would not

NO TAX ON GRANT ESTATE
Appellate Division Rules Him
Not New York Resident.

The Appellate Division yesterday de-
cided that the estate Of General Fred
erick d. Grant need not pay a transfer
tax in New York, FOR as an officer in
the army he was not resident of the
state.
General Grant was commander of the
Department OF the East, with head
quarters on Governors Island, at the
time Of his death. When the matter of
fixing d tax on his estate came before
the Surrogstes' Court IL was decided
that, although the general was q resi-
dent Of New York before he re-entered
the army after a long absence from
service, he established his residence on
federal territory. IL was also shown
that General Grant contemplated
taking up his residence in Washing
ton after his retirement from service
The Surrogate Court declared the
estate exempt from taxation. from
which the state Controller appealed,
the Appellate Division sustaining the
original decision.

PREDICT SALE OF
3 GERMAN LINERS
Shipping Men Say Syndicate
Here Awaits Dacia Action Be-
fore Buying Interned Ships.

At least three of the steamers of the
German steamship companies which
have been interned at Hoboken since
the beginning of the war are ready to
be sold to an American syndicate, it
was reported in shipping circles yes
terday.
The vessels belong to the older and
smaller types of the German merchant
fleets. Their cargoes have been trans
ferred and their crews distributed
among several of the larger German
boats.
Superintendent Moeler of the Hobo
ken piers last night would not discuss
the matter. At the downtown Offices OF
the German steamship companies no
confirmation could be obtained OF any
impending sale.
II was admitted, however, that sew
ersl of the liners had been emptied OF
their csrgoes and crews.
Well informed shipping men claim
that the German steamship companies
have been contemplating the sale of
several boats, but that it had been
difficult to find buyer on account Of
the risks of having them captured and
possibly condemned by a prize court of
the Allies.
ne SAFE OF lhc Dacla Dy the ham
burg American Line few weeks ago
had been made to establish a precedent,
it was said. Should the British re-
spect the American flag and regard the
sale of the German vessel to an Ameri-
can syndicate as a bona fide trsnsac-
tion other sales will be negotiated at
once.
According to a persistent rumor in
shipping circles, the British will prob
ably not interfere with the trip of the
Dacia from Galveston TO Bremen with
cargo of cotton.

leave me some forces in the City OF
Mexico for the protection OF the city
and Of the provisional government.
This he did not do. Perhaps il is be-
cause of reverses in the north, but the
fact remains that we have not received
needed support. Some of our most
trusted generals have already deserted
US. Even the people are against US
now. and only dlscord reigns.

GOLD HILL SLIDES
CAUSE OF CHANGE
Washington Hears Hints
Fleet Should Be Kept in
Atlantic During War.
From The Tubun. Bureau J

Washington, Jan. 29-Secretary Of
the Navy Daniels. by direction OF
President Wilson. announced officially
TODAY the postponement Of the pro
posed trip Of the Atlantic fleet and the
President through the canal and up the
Pacific to San Francisco and the Pan
anna Pacific Exposition. Uncertainty as
TO overcoming the slides at Gold Hill,
in Culebra cut, was given as the reason.
Early in July has been tentatively set
for the Panama trip.
Back of the decision 10 postpone the
canal opening is said to lie a more SIN
ister reason than any heretofore sug-
gested that strategists and interns-
tional political forecasters have intl-
mated to the President that the Allan
tic feet had better remain in Atlantic
waters 50 long as the European war
continues.
The Presidents friends continue TO
insist that this is not the case. They
argue that the United States is not in
the slightest danger Of becoming in
volved i'm the European disturbance or
anv Of its collateral dssgreements, and
thew insist that the slides in Culebra
Cut are the real reason for the post
ponement of the trip.
The President will go 10 the San
Francisco fair by rail early in March
for the ceremonies, as originally sched-
uled BY making the coast-to-coast
trip in lesurely fashion, occupying not
more than ten days in each direction
and four days in California, Mr.. viii
son will be able TO turn it into a
stumping tour of his campaign for re
election.
Spring target practice OF the At
lantic fleet will take place at Guanta-
namo. Cuba. as usual, As the result
of the postponement of the canal cere-
monies. Secretary Daniels csbled in
structions to Rear Admiral Fletcher
70 this effect to-day. The feet will
be able to 90 north at the conclusion
OF the spring drills and practice and
thoroughly refit for the lore cruise to
San Francisco By way Of Panama.

Mexico City. Jan. 90 Most of the
people Of this city looked on with IN
difference when the CarranZs forces,
under General Alyaro Obregon. entered
and took possession Of the capital late
Yesterday afternoon. There was no en-
thusiasm, nor was there any hostile
demonstration. except the firing OF
few shots by snipers on the plaza op-
posite the cathedral and in Francisco
Madero ST.
There was, however. an earlier clash
between Iapatistss and Constitution
alists. a party Of ten Zapatistas, com
manded by Colonel Margarine Ber-
nude, in an automobile. attacked the
Constitutionslists Just as they were
entering the capital from the village OF
Guadalupe. They were easily over
powered and made prisoners. General
Obregon said these men would be court
martialed
General Obrcgon was confined 10 his
room in a hotel when ne received
party Of newspaper men. The regime
for the present, he said, would be mill
tary. as he had no instructions for the
installation of civil authorities
General 0bregon declared the shots
fred in the plaza were undoubtedly
attempted assassination. The snipers
have not yet been captured. Three sol
ders were killed and several wounded
during the firing. The Tribune CORE
spondent saw the body OF civilian in
a nearby garden.
All saloons have been closed by the
authorities, but commercial houses and
banks have declared they will resume
business at once.
Twenty thousand Carranza troops en-
tered the capital and marched 20 the
quarters selected for them By General
Obregon. The Zapatistas have retreat
ed southwark.
Vera Cruz. Jan. 29.-There were in
dications at the CarranZa headquarters
to-day of a disposition to carry war
10 General Villa wherever he is to be
found.
Concerning Euialio Gutierrez, who
was elected Provisional President by
the Aguascalientes convention. it is
regarded as almost certain by followers
of Carranza that he and his men will
rally to the supper Of the First Chief,
making the best terms possible. As
for General Zapata, he is still in the
field to be fought, as he always has
been.
General Vcnustano Carranzs. the
First Chief Of the Constitutionalist..
will. according to Vera Cruz sdyces,
return to the capital Immediately, and
IL is probable that he will re-establish
his government there in the near fut-
ure.

for them and waited until they had
landed two small sun fish, after which
he placed them under arrest. and they
were fined $50 each.
Game Warden LeFcvrc explained
that tho revenue from the licenses was
necessary to enforce the laws and he
did moi think it fair to exempt the
canal. He said there were certain
ponds here which were known in New
York, and the large cities as the black
bass ponds in the United States
and said it could not be conceivable TO
open these to visitors in large num-
bers without a license
David A. Hay. Of this city echoed
the sentiments expressed by Mr.. Le-
Fevre. Mr.. Cullen suggested that a
nonresident be made 10 pay license
fee the same as is charged a nOn-res-
ident in the State from which he came.
Protection for the swapping turtle
was asked and that the blight net was
asked to be exempted from the net
laws in the State. The snapper nets,
it was said, did no harm TO the game
fish. When tho ierrapin law was dis
cussed the fishermen said the Legis-
ldtuit dppdA tutif ulu not WISH q bOou
bill passed on this question.
"The game laws Of Delaware are
a farce" said Cecil Hahn. "and I an
thoroughly disgusted. heard i'm adj
vance that my tcrrapin bill was TO be
torn apart and killed. and it certainly
was Our game laws are worthless. II
Mr.. Cullen then suggested that the
same bill be presented at this meet
ing, as it might be adopted by the
game and fish commissioners.
The recommendation that the canal
be exempted for the licensing @, non
residents was voted upon. with the
result that seven voted for the eX-
cmption while four opposed it.
MIR. Cullen, who opposed this ac-
ton then asked that Indian river
and Rchoboth bay be also exempted
on the precedent just made. He
sounded q warning that this pre-
ccdent would cause trouble in the
future.

Appointment of COckiIl as
National League Umpire
UpSetS Seasons Plan
NO TROUBLE OVER
PURCHASE MONEY

HARRISBURG, Pa. Jan. 2l.-Direc-
tors of the Pennsylvania Exhibition
Company will meet this afternoon
TO settle the destinies Of baseball for
Harrisburg. A successor to Manager
George Cochll. who has been ap-
pointed National League Umpire
by President Tener. will be talked
about
Nothing definite viii be done, 1t
Is said. because the appointment of
the man who has lead the team for
three seasons and brought two pen
nants to Harrisburg was dropped like
a bomb shell in their midst, as 1t
we're There we're rumors Of his
coming appointment to be sure, but
the directors imagined that they were
just rumOrs.
An interesting baseball problem
viii be taken up at this meeting.
Manager Cockill who is said never
10 have signed a contract to manage
the Harrisburg team. nevertheless
was a holdover player from last
season and as such could not ne
taken from Harrisburg by big
league club by other than a sale
The opinion prevails that the Ma
tional League taking Cockill away
from Harrisburg to be an umpire
will have to compensate Harrisburg
for the loss Whether or not the
National League can be held to the
waiver rule is an interesting qucs-
tiOn.
If this dispute arises and tho
league will not pay for Cockill il is
believed that the Harrisburg club
viii not take any steps TO contest the
point as Cockill has been fair in all
his dealings with the players aud the
club owners il is believed that Coe-
Kill will he given his unconditional
release I'm that case
The appointment goes into effect
ia March at the opening of the base.
bali season Cockill's salary as an
umpire tbs first season will be S.,
400. If he makes good. and there Is
no doubt In the minds Of his friend.
In Harrisburg that he will make
| good, he will receive during his sec
| ond season the sum of $4,000.
