-J 1 20 WX01I FOR A TARIFF TO AID OUR MARINE Ht Would Impota an Extra Duty on Imports Brought Here In Foreign Ships. PRAISES THE EARLY LAWS Calls for Constitutional Regulation CommtrctWeuldAbrogits Unprofitable Trade Conventions. Artument In favor of Constitutional refutation of commerce by tha United and of Uiiff discrimination "vortn foods broufht here In Arorl can-built and American-owned was made by Lewis Nixon yesterday In an Interview on the Underwood Tariff MIL Mr. Nixon condemned subsidies as probably unconstitutional, and said the people soon would demand to Know why treaties hampering- the trade of the United States should not be abrogated. He expressed the opinion that the Underwood bill did not go far enoufh In 'favoring: American shipping, and he suggested changes in several parts of the measure.

When the thirteen Colonies of Great Britain achieved their said Mr. Nixon, "they were Impoverished, without an adequate merchant marina and under such conditions that, continuing as they were, their poverty would be Increased and their marine would vanish. The great men brought to the front by great events realized that the three pillars of a nation greatness were commerce, agriculture, and manufact uring. "The thirteen States had as many means of regulating commerce, leading to endless confusion and loss. So it waa seen that a central power to regu late commerce Waa essential, and such necessity was th compelling causa, of the formation of the Union and the adostlon of our Constitution.

The va rious States delegated their separate Dowers to reaulate commerce to the Central Government, and this power, as accepted, carries with it a sacred pact or duty which must be exercised." We are safe In asaumtntr that those who took part In, tha drafting of our Constitution knew what they meant by Its provisions. They were leaders In public thought, and its Ideals snd inten-. lions were carried Into effect by the same men by appropriate In the First Congress. A close study of debates leading to the framing of he Constitution has shown trie that very expression of opinion was to the effect that the power to regulate com- inerce contemplated discrimination when necessary or desirable. Col.

Thomas H. Benton, in his Debates of said: In the Houae of Representatives In I'M rrorred one of the moat Interesting and elaborate denatea which our Congress ha( furnished. It rew out of the clause la the Constitution conferring power to recu- late cnrnnern with foreign nations and SWea tlx Interpretation of Ita author, which la wholly different in lie nature and slaa diatlnrt from the power to lay ssd collect Import duties. The) latter waa te ralae revenue, the former to make aurh discriminations In trade and transportation to protect our merchants and ship owners from the sdveraa refutations and devices of our rivals. Haw Early Laws Helped Trade.

"Let us examine the laws passed. alt this first Congress to regulate commerce: Firajt, a discrimination was made allowing a duty 10 per cent, less on roods Imported If brought in American bottoms. Differential tonnage taxes were provided, six cents per ton on American vessels, thirty cents per ton on American-built and foreign-owned vessels, and fifty cents per ton on foreign-built and owned vessels. The alz cents per ton was paid only once a year on American vessels In ths coasting trade. The great Asiatic trade was procured by grading duties on tea far higher when brought in for elgn than if brought Tn American bottoms.

American registry was confined to American-built vessels. The same rare for Americans at sea as on shore inspired laws to insure proper food and breathing space for" American seamen. Seamen, shipyards, and ships," Mr. Nixon continued. were secured by these wise provisions, together with an Influence driving trade to American vessels, so that they might ba profitably employed.

"In- seven years our shipping Increased 3S5 per and by 1816 we were carrying 93 per cent, of our for-. aim trad under the American flasT. These wise laws were drawn by Madison, being based on Jefferson's master-" ly report on commerce. Many adverse balances of trade were turned into favorable balances of commerce, because we had the great earnings of ships to throw to' the National credit, and our Nation waxed strong and rich and our merchant marine grew In ctrength and efficiency. "In as a crowning act of unwisdom, we suspended the operation these wise laws, and now carry only bout per rent, of our own trade.

And in losing the carrying of our oversea products it haa come about that we do not insure our own trade, we do not finance it. we do not buy it or sell It. The cream of trade la in the hands of our commercial rivals. The suspension of our first wise laws is the principal and overwhelming rea-etn for this decline and loss. Of course.

the changes from wood to Iron, the loasea due to the civil wsr. the Introduction of steam, the discrimination against our shipping by foreign Insurance and rating companies, the bonded warehouse system giving creou for dutlea, contracts for advance charters, every possible device and regulation of our rivals to foster their own marines; the monopolising of oversea trade by conferences and combines, and payments now aggregating about S4a.ofs.MSio annually by other nations to encourage and support their shipping, have supplemented this betrayal by our National legislators of a duty enjoined by the Constitution and their oath to support Ita provisions. In all seriousness, all tariff bills of Louise MILLINERS and Special Attraction Blue Serge Suits From 55.00 Imported Crepe de Chine Suits 100.00 White Serge and Ratine Suits 100.00 Lingerie Waists 15.00 LATEST IMPORTATIONS OF Large Summer Hats in Leghorn and Picot Straw Crin and TtrUe 554 Fifth Ave Bet. 45th and 46th Sti. recent years have reiterated the dis criminating provisions of earlier years ana men, to make them impotent, too that such provisions sre not to apply to vessels of nations not applying similar regulations against the United States, or unless such provisions are not barred by treaty or by Act of Congress.

Fry, tn 18B4. tried to repeal these Inconsistent restrictions, but was unable to do Mr. McKln-ley wss elected on a platform of discriminating dJtles. but Congress switched to subsidy legislation, and this waa defeated. -i Appraisers Balked Cearesa "TheT wording of ths yilson.

bill. Section 14, was so changed the wording of the Tariff Act of July 24. 1807. In providing for discriminating duties, that It would have thrown to American vessels a greater part of our Indirect trade. But this, though an Act of Congress, signed by the President, was ulilled by the Board of General Appraisers, speaking through tha Attorney General.

Flank, front and rear of foreign attack on our oversea enterprise are guarded with surpassing vig-1 la nee. "In 1880. tho Republican platform said: Further subsidies to private persons or corporations must cease. "The recent platform declaration of the Democratic Party in this connee- llnn svnmc. nut flSLtlv for constitutional MviitXInn of rnmm.rr, tn be KChieVCd without bounties or subsidies.

It- also favors the exemption from tolls on the Panama Canal, of American ships engaged In coastwise trade. The latter Is Iruflv a-nmn1taheri as there is SUCh a law on the statute books. How is constitutional regulation of commerce to be procured in other-ways? J-Stibsectton 1 of the Underwood Tariff hill nreacrlhea that an additional discriminating ad valorem duty of JO per cent, on cargoes Drougni irom noncontiguous foreign territory in foreign vessels shall be levied, but not If by treaty, convention, or act of Congress goods in such foreign vessels are to pay the asm (duties as in American vessels. We walk-up the hill and then walk dnwn nsfaln. 8ubsectlon 2 provides that goods shall not be brouarnt to the United States from a foreign country except In the ships of that particular foreign country or In ships of the United Btstes.

This was the law from 1815 to But. sgain. this provision is made useless by the provision, unless provided for by trutv and in Huhaectlon 3 it is pro vided that this shall not prevail against the vessels of a foreign country wnicn does not maintain a similar regulation tK lnltd States. Tnla mis taken idea, of becinnlna charity abroad means that, since Turkey does not for bid our vessels bringing Austrian goons Into Turkey, we cannot forbid Turkish vessels bringing Austrian goods to the United Ststes. We did forbid at one time all indirect trade and grew rich and powerful on the sea under such policy.

Subsection 5 provides that materials of foreign production- for building American vessels and tneir macninery and all articles necessary for their outfit and eauinment shall be free of duty. This Is of doubtful utility. Secretary Whitnev's natriotic stand against just such a policy in connection wlfn the ouiiding or our new navy uiu mom unci anv other act of an American statesman to make us self-contained In naval upbuilding, and laid the foundation for the leadership In steel Industries of the United States to-day. The above subsection and the following. No.

6. which provides that all articles of foreign pro duction needed Tor xne repair 01 vessels may be withdrawn from bonded warehouses free of duty, may be the means of putting out of business a number of small snip windlass, steering gear, and equipment plants. Of course, there is great latitude In Interpretation, but I think materials instead of articles In both subsections would have been bet ter, as of less possible harm to A men can enterprise. Criticises Bonded Warehanses. "The idea, too," Mr.

Nixon commented, "of giving credit for customs duties on foreign articles In bonded warehouses, while foreign agents run about the coun try selling sucn products tn our home markets, does not appeal to me, and now to use the bonded warehouse as a stepping stone, to a free market seems to carry protection xor im xoreign maker to an absurd lengtn. Susbsection 7 is aa follows: That a discount of per centum on all duties Imposed by this act shall be allowed on such goods, wares, and merchandise as shall be Imported In Teasels built In the United States, and which shall be wholly the property of a cttlsen or cltl-setu hereof. Sub-section 7. Is of great Impor tance." said Mr. Nixon.

It is In line with the Splght and Hulxer bins, and in Its enlightened American and constitutional policy accords with the ideas of one of the real constructive statesmen of the day, Judge Joshua W. Alexander, I'nairman or. tne committee on Mer chant Marine of the House of Representatives. As soon as the foreign sym pathisers realise that In this sub-section we return to the constitutional. con structive regulation of commerce of Jef ferson ana Madison, mere win oe denunciation of this provision that will rrmke the outcry against the entirely just remission of tolls now protested by Great Britain seem like- a whisper in a boiler shop.

Yet I am noperui mat our people, aeelnar that the dire effects Predicted if we abrogate treaties that should be abrogated have not come to pass In the case of the Russian treaty, may want to know why we should not abrogate treaties that hamper commercial srowth. The Insidious growth of for eign commerce has been due to inducing us to make treaties suspending such constitutional regulations, as were particularly useful to us by our opponents agreeing to reciprocate, after wnicn they would adopt such devices and regulations as under our constitutional limitations we were powerless to coun tervail. Personally, m.v opinion Is that subsidies are unconstitutional and we know they are unpopular, in addition to the fact that both the great political parties have declared aaainst tnem. So now the anti-Americans would have us believe that advocacy of indiscriminate blocking of Industrial prosperity I the touchstone of democ racy ana. winning uk lavinutiic the unpopularity of the word subsidy.

they try to apply that term to every form of heloful regulation. Discriminating duties offering lower duties or no duties on goods brought in American vessels, and discriminating tolls offering lower tolls or no tolls on American ships, nre no more a subsidy than is nnttinr an article on -the free Mat a subsidy to the foreign maker whose product drives a domestic product out of the home market which pur Weald Go Beyond Jetfersosv If constitutional regulation of com merce is to be adopted, we must adopt not only the policies of Jefferson for such regulation, but so great is our prostration that supreme effort la required to rehabilitate our and hence constructive statesmanship should Co.

Nixon are riot like treaties of peace and treaty of peace made for--a- term of years would be ridiculous, but commercial conventions are bargains where privilege is matched against, privilege, and the very making of the convention admits the rights claimed by each.

When the, advantage to one side becomes out 'of proportion to that renting wun ine otner, it is ezpeciea ana accepted aa equitable that there shall be a termination' or modification of the agreement, and this termination always is provided for. -For example.

I have been made to feel the terrific pressure brousht to bear in oreventing our en tering on genuine constitutional regulation. The Republican Party could not do U. although Mr.

McKinley was elected: pledged to such policy and accented sucn pieoge in nis iirst message. nem is jio.use putting the soft pedal on, however. Why stalk a great opportunity as if it were a sleeping deer! Five per cent, reduction of a low percentage schedule Is not enough, and I believe that the' best beginning is with the Indirect trade. While we could play af the same game If reprisals were attempted, it would be very hard to retaliate against a provision affecting only Indirect trade. Thus, if we prefer our vessels over a Belgian vessel bringing Austrian goods to the United states, tne only way tne Belgian Government could retaliate without inviting greater retaliation from us would be to prefer its own vessels against ours in taking cargoes from Aus tria to Belgium, ana we snouia not ior a long time care if she did.

But In the meantime we should get almost all the South American trade with us carried in our own vessels, for we blazed the way for a proper reciprocation with the American republics at the last Pan-American Conference. Sub-section 1 is rendered useless bv Its qualifications and exceptions. Of course It touo-sectlon 7 Is passed It will require the termination of the treaties referred to in Sub-section 1 and thus make Sub-section 1 of enormous value and Importance. Sub-section 2 Is an indirect trade regulation of the greatest value and should not be emasculated by the next No. 3, as we do not care whether such a regulation is made against us or We wish for the IP order to strike off Jtna'.

FREES B0SSCH1ETER SLAYER Andrew Campbell Paroled After 15 Years in Jail.

TRENTON. N. April 18. The Court of Pardons to-day paroled Andrew Campbell of Paterson. who was sen tenced to thirty years' imprisonment for the murder of Jennie.

Bosschieter. The court refused applications of William A. Death and Walter McAllister, also sentenced to thirty-year terms for the same crime. Repeated applications had been made for clemency for the three principals in this celebrated murder case. The Bosschieter murder occurred fifteen years ago.

Jennie was an attractive young mill girl. One night the three men and one other, who has served a fifteen-year sentence, gave her drugged liquor In- a Paterson saloon. They took her to the outskirts of the city and later took her in an unconscious condition to a doctor's office, where she died. The doctor caosed the arrest of the men. Campbell's release is not due to ill-health but because of a large number of petitions In his behalf and a that he was the least guilt' of tho -men.

At the time of the murder he was only 22 years of age. PHIPPS CLINIC OPENED. Osier Speaks a Exercises at Johns Hopkins. BALTIMORE, April 16. The Henry Phlpps Psychiatric Clinic, a new unit of Johns Hopkins Hospital for the treatment of every phase of mental disorder, under the direction of Dr.
