U. S. FLAG NOW FLYING
ON 2,768. OCEAN VESSELS.
New Resistery Law Sets Record Not
Touched Since 1863.

The American flag now floats over
more ships in the foreign trade than at
any other time since 1863, and the
United States is pressing close on
France and Norway as a maritime ma
ton.
Figures by the department OF com
merce show a record increase In Amer
lean shipping for the year ended June
30. On that date there were registered
In the foreign trade 2,76S ships. totaling
1,S13,T 75 gross tons, an increase Of 1853
ships and 1868 IONS for the year.
Assistant Secretary Sweet of the de-
partment OF commerce said:
This Is about triple the increase In
registered tonnage for any previous
year In American history. Our reg
istered tonnage Is nov much greater
than at any time since 1868, when we
had 2.023,114 gross tons In foreign
trade. 1t Is many times more efficient.
however, as the steam tonnage now
amounts to 1.273.067 gross tons, while
In 1863 IL amounted to only 1925
tons.
"The increase from the ship regis
try act OF Aug. Is, 1914. to June Is.
1915, was so rapid that tonnage under
the American flag now employed In
foreign trade is nearly equal to such
tonnage under the French or Nor
wegian flag. British tonnage. Of
course. is more than tenfold greater"
The increase is directly due to the
enlarged commerce Of this country on
account Of the war and the retirement
OF SO many merchantmen Of other ma
lions.

st. Paul, Sept. 13.-If friends of
Governor Hammond have started a
movement to place him in the vice
presidential chair at the next election
they have not taken the recipient of
the anticipated honor into their con-
fidence, according to the governor.
Il am inclined to think" he said.
that IL | file for office ii will be for
reelection as governor. As a matter
of fact, haven't given much thought
to the election"
That those outside of Minnesota rec
ognize Governor Hammond as fit tim
Der for the Woe presidency or United
States senator is evident from editorial
comment which has reached the CAPT
toll.
The suggestion that he would be a
worthy running mate to President
Wilson was made at a dinner in the
chamber of commerce at Portland,
Ore, in honor of Governor Hammond
recently.
A trade magazine called the Port
land Confidential Banker paid the fol-
lowing tribute to Minnesota and to
Governor Hammond:
Minnesota is to be congratulated
most heartily on having such a mag
nificent chief executive, a man not
only big enough to be head of a great
state, but to preside over the affairs
of a nation"
