two liou. And then- is woi prospect that it v. ill pas l.oth houses if it can b reported from the committee on the District of Columbia. The passage of this bill would bo the b t possible demonstration of the principle of public owru-rship 'f public uti'itbs. The capital city would servo us a beacon light in this ictpect for the i e st of the country. Mr. Crossf.r has no doubt that if this bill comes to a rolh all in the house it will pars. Senator Morris is known to favor the Crosscr 1.111, and it is understood that ho has practically assured Representative Crosse r that it will go through the senate of the house passes it. This is :l matter in which every progressive c itizens in the United Mates is interested. A demonstration of the eiticiency of public ownership in Washington would make the fight much easier throughout the country. For this reason, special interests desiring to defeat the bill have become particularly active. It can be stated with certainty that six members of the house -tl it rict committee will vote in favor of reporting out the bill. They are Pa n Johnson, of Kentucky, Henry George, jr., of New York. Claude IHngle, of Florida. Joseph R. Thompson, of Oklahoma, II. Waters Anderson, of Pennsylvania, and Uob rt Crosser. of Ohio. The men who hold the fate of the bill in thvir hands arci who have, not committed tl.emsrlv;s on it, aro Wyatt Aiken, f t-'oath Carolina, William I. Igoe," of Missouri, Thaddcus H. Caraway' of Arkansas, Coerce J'. Gorman, of Illinois. L)enis f)'I,eary. of ' New York, F.ugene H. Red, of New Hampshire, Archibald C. Hart, of New Jersey, II. C. Claypool, of Ohio. .C. P. Uo.idy, of Maryland, Wm. J. Cary, of Wisconsin, olotnan U. Prouty, of Pennsylvania, and Carl F. Napes, of Michigan. A few discreet lines from the home folks Intimating to these gentlemen that the writers are interested in the votes on this bill would help push it out of the committee onto the floor.

A favorable report is expected soon on the Newlands river regulation hill which Presideu t-A'!fon referred to a special nunmilf n hf "his cabinet, consisting of XeM;vries 1'ine, Redtield. Houston and' (T liison. These cabinet olliccrs will nljfiw a part in carrying out the cnviiffjp.nivc flood control and recTarrJ..n3plan proposed in this legislation..1 A' nd the president wished them to; consult their bureau ehlefs and report as to their views on the bill as drawn. The report. It Is understood, is favorable, of course, the army engineers have used whatever inMuence they may have with Iarri:un (who is a weak sister) aKJtinst the bill. The army engineers are closely tied up with the- Mississippi I liver Leee association, which is the feature o the railroads which have lulled water transportation on the Mississippi and wish to keep it killed.

When an accident takes place at sea the only people who lose are the seamen and the passengers. These sometimes lose their lives. As a financial proposition loss of ships at sea is profitable. This is brought out clearly in the report of Andrew Feruseth. made to the president, when Feruseth icturned from the London conference on safety at sea. and u hb'h report has just been made public. In this report I'eruseth ejuotes Joseph 'hamberlain. the famous ITnglish admiralty ooicial, as follows: "When a ship is lost the shipowner may make a profit, the owner may get more than the value of his ship; the merchant may lose nothing, but may. and very often does, gt more than the value of the cargo bac k. In the same way the underwriter averages his losses, and on the whole makes a profit on the insurance of the ship out of his premium." Mr. Feruseth notes also that "a hundred years .(go, before the days of insurance and imitation of shipowners' liability, the shipowner demanded four years' experience in those whom he considered oualirlcd to take care of his property: now lie considers a few trials enough to sie life." The London conference, dominated i- shipowners, ami from which I'eru--eth resigned in digust, adopted standards of safety lower even than i be present leal requirements. The seamen's hill is how dvir.g in the house eommitteo on men h.:at marine, of v.hh-h Joshua W. Aiea:ubr, of Missouri, is chairman.

The president is studying hard on the Alaska railroad iiivp--:tii::. He has "limit; a !i" map in his 1 . ilrmim and when he has nothing clx- to do ho tfts up and studies it. 'Die other day he hail six visitors in hi bedroom conferring as to routes and other features of the proposed system. He has 'it eu going over all the surveys made.
