The committee’s report is, in fact, a violent and summary con", demnation of foreign shipping combines, which, it is declared, control more than ninety per cent. of the oversea trade of the United States. The report goes on to denounce the foreign steamship combinations @s “the most complete monopolies in the world. Their rates are wnjest and oppressive. They unjustly levy millions on American commerce. They have done much to destroy our trade not only by exorbitant freight rates, but also by discriminating against us in all the ports of the world in favor of the products of their own country.” { Fines of $25,000 and the cancelling of mail contracts are other panishments provided by the bfll for any trust-owned ship attempt-!

One hundred and one citisens of the United | it States, business and professional men, sailed on the excursion ae _ Steamer Bluecher from New York around South Ameriga and back, oi ‘ eovering twenty thousand miles. They visited Buenos Ayres, Rio : ia = @e Janeiro, Montevideo, Valparaiso, Santos. They looked about *_ them with intelligent eyes. One thing they noted struck them with i »t @ach force that on their return voyage to New York they put their { _ tmpression into the form of a resolution or memorial. All signed It, FIGHT To ; ~ and when they got ashore {t was printed and circulated. - d « What impressed these men was this: These South American ports have great and growing commerco, ‘. are full of ships. “But at all places and at all times we have looked bs Tad ta) in. vain for a merchant steam veesel carrying the flag of the United States!
