BUI COASTWISE TRADING EXCLUDED Senate Passes House Measure to Restore Trans-Atlantic Trade by Extending Registry Special to The Telegraph Washington, Aug. 18.—The Senate amended registry t ill, containing pro vision allowing foreign-built vessels to engage in coastwise trade, which would have destroyed this country's trade in that direction and injured the American shipbuilding industry, was defeated in the Senate by a vote of 40 to 20. By the same vote the House bill was adopted, thereby opening the way to American registry of foreign vessels for operation in the trans- Atlantic trade. It is believed the President will sign the measure. This bill makes it possible to admit foreign vessels to American registry and thus provides an outlet for Ameri can grain and other products now prevented, through a lack of ships, from reaching the markets of Europe. The bill enacts Into law the Ad ministration plan to restore the trans- A'lanti.' trade paraltzed by the Euro pean war. It is also designed to en large the American merchant mar ine. Already the Hamburg-American line has received proposals for the purchase of certain of its vessels now in American waters, and the North German Lloyd Line has announced that it will sell some of its ships. Ad ministration officials expect to see many foreign-built ships come under the American flag soon after Presi dent Wilson signs the bill. Defeat of the Senate conference re port was effected by the coastwise shipping interests and the shipbuild ing industries. The latter objected to an amendment made by Senator O'Gorman providing for the reoalrs of these and all vessels In Government yards. This provision had been pre viously defeated. Many Democrats joined the Republicans in defeating the Senate amendments. Senator O'Gorman. in charge of the measure, then moved acceptance of the House hill. It provides for the admission to American registry of foreign-built ships regardless of their age. Sena tor O'Gorman. in a vigorous speech, rebuked the Democratic Senators who a few months ago.when the tolls bill was up for discussion, denounced the coastwise shipping monopoly, but who are active now in encouraging it. Johnson Charters Ship For American Refugees Philadelphia. Aug. 18. —John G. Johnson, a leading member of the American bar and a Philadelphian, has chartered the steamship Antilles of the Southern Pacific Company as a transport ship for American re fugees in Europe, according to a re port received in this city yesterday. The Antilles, which is now In New York, will sail for Genoa next week to gather at that point several hun dred tourists for a return trip to this country, it is said. Mr. Johnson has been on the Continent for some time. According to a cable received last night Mr. Johnson Is now In Paris. I,eonor F.

There's a better way of removing of fensive complexions and one that Is en tirely safe and rational. Ordinary mer collzed wax causes the devitalized scarf skin to come oft, but gradually and gently. Unlike the surgical process, the skin is not forcibly taken oft In big pieces all at once, but almost Invisible flaky particles are absorbed by the wax, and about two weeks are required to complete the transformation. There's no pain, no discomfort. Nature renews complexions the same way, shedding tiny cutaneous scales' day by day. But deficient circulation, or other abnormal condition, may Inter fere with the shedding—a "bad com plexion" results. Then mercolized wax assists Nature by hastening the re moval of the aged, faded or discolored top skin. Thus only the lively, young, healthy-hued skin Is In evidence, as In robust girlhood. This Is why mercol ized wax produces the Indescribable beauty of ever-renewing youth. The wax is put on at night like cold cream, and washed oft In the morning. You can procure It at any druggist's; an ounce .U. ■atfsiaaU— on all their resources, they will have at war one of every five men they con tain.

The plan may contemplate giving relief to many Philadelphia friends of Mr. Johnson who are now abroai and who when war broke out directed their travelers to Genoa as one of the most favorable neutral ports for es cape to this country. Attorney Gen eral John C. BeLl, It was suggested, might be among the Philadelphians aided by Mr. Johnson. The Antilles, which can accomodate 400 passengers, is a Morgan Line steamer plying between New York and New Orleans. l T p to late last night the report of the chartering of the Antilles could not be verttfied: The report as to Mr. Johnson af fords an indication of the difficulties faced by Americans abroad. Even the chartering' of transports by the Government, observers say, will not solve the problem completely. Great Kansas Wheat Crops Being Hoarded Topeka, Kan., Aug. tB. Little wheat is going out of Kansas, accord ing to the records in the office of George B. Ross, state grain inspector. The Hutchinson market Is holding up fairly well with the July -record of grain inspected by the state, but the Wichita market is falling off. "The export ports are filled to ca pacity with Kansas wheat," sajd Carl Plckell. chief clerk in the office of In spector Ross. "Practically no wheat Is going out of the state. "Also the stacking of wheat begun by the Kansas farmers last month Is still going on. The farmers are not anxious to sell. They figure that as soon as wheat can. he shipped to Eu rope the price is going to soar, so they are holding it on the fnrm. The Kan sas millers are beginning to buy, though not to the'extent that they k wlll have to a little later." HARFtfSBTTTIG TELEGRAPH Estimated War Strength Nations. Population, of Army.

Events of yesterday clearly showed that in the absence of bills of exchange between this country and Latin American na tions, due entirely to the collapse of credits because of the general war In Kurope, Latin American buyers w.uld have to offer in exchange for Ameri can supplies crude products which will be of use to manufacturers in this country. The economic situation thus pre sented is remarkable and brings up pictures of centuries ago, but it is pre liminary to the beginning of the ship ment of great amounts of supplies to South America and the bringing back of cargoes of various foodstuffs and raw materials. The moment active shipping is under way there will be plenty of bills of exchange and the banking situation will take care of the rest.
