Ho charged that the bill uould foster monopolies, and that al ready J. P. Morgan and his associates were forming a syndicate for the con trol ot the shipping on the Atlantic. He insisted that if it were legal to pay subsidies to the shipping interests, it would be legal to pay them to tho rais ers of horses and mules, which, as well as auxiliary cruisers, vcre employed In war. Ho became engaged In a sharp col loquy with Mr. Hanna, of Ohio, who maintained that tho ships acquired by Mr. Morgan from foreign , countries could not participate in the subsidies provided by the pending measure. Mr. Berry declared that Mr. Morgan and Mr. Griscom (president of tlio American line) and their associates would be the beneiicarles of the pend ing bill. .If Mr. Morgan and his asso ciates desired to obtain American reg ister for their foreign built s-hlps, he had no doubt of their ability 'to con vince the majority in congress that It would be right to gho the vessels American register. Mr. Hanna, continuing, said that Mr. Berry had urged that the power and inlluence of Mr. Morgan nnd his asso ciates would be brought to bear on congress to secure the admission ot their foielgn built ships to American register. That was gratuitous. If it were true, this bill would offer little Inducement to those owners, as by having their vessels brought under American register they could partici pate in the very profitable coastwise trade. In conclusion, Mr. Hanna said: "The senators on this side of the chamber are actuated by just and high motives and they are just as patriotic as the senator from Arkansas." Mr. Perkins, of California, and a member of the commerce committee, delivered a carefully prepared speech in support of the bill, maintaining that it would add to tho prosperity ofthe entire country. Mr. Penrose favorably reported the Chinese exclusion bill, and it was placed on the calendar. ITALIAN LABOR TROUBLES. Mounted Troops Sent to the Various Point3 of Disturbance.
