SHIPYARDS ARE RUSHED.

Washngton-In a report by the COM
mission on navigation it is declared that
American shipyards have under con-
struction now more vessels than ever be-
fore, and that these vessels will add to
an American merchant marine whose
gross tonnage is already the largest in
the country's history. At the present
time there are ninety-eight merchant
vessels of more than 5000 tons being
built or are under contract.
The total tonnage of ships under the
American flag, numbering 26,sss, Decem-
Der l, was S,SSS,25S. a net gain of more
than $4,000 tons since July 1. There was
a net gain of 1877 ships, despite 272 YES
sells lost, abandoned, and sold to aliens.
Twenty-three came under American reg
istry from foreign registry and 1876 were
completed in shipyards.
This report is of especial interest at
this time, in view of the insstent claims
that the seamen's law will drive the
American flag from the high seas

SAG, 100000 FOR
WORK ON RIVERS
New Bill Allows All That Was
Asked for the Ohio.

Washington.-The first draft of the
Rivers and Harbors bill has been COM
pleted. The Ohio river is taken care Of
at its full War Department estimate
Altogether the bill carries $4600OOOO. 1t
makes appropriation for all projects now
in course of construction, but for no
new ones, in accordance with the Presi-
dents views. 1t is suggested that Presi-
dent Wilson wants to see the bill cut
down to $25,O00,000. In that event some
of the older projects will fare badly. 1t
is the present intention of the committee
to introduce the bill in the House in the
second week in January.
