Carvw County Has Had a Hard Time With County Treaaurers. CARVER, Minn.. Feb. 27.—(Special.)—It is doubtful if there is another county In the United States with a record of de faulting county treasurers which can compare with that of Carver county— Hassenstab, 1875, *S,000; Weego, 1891, $4,333; Bongard, 390 C (as far as could be ascer tained Saturday evening), $6,Bl6—three treasurers in succession, with a total de falcation of over $19,000. The defaulting treasurers were all men of untarnished reputations at the time of their ascendancy to office, and It was not until they had come to regard them fcelvea almost as fixtures in the office when they commenced their peculations. It now appears that the action of Ger hard Bongard was premeditated. His un easiness when Mr. Hebeisen was nom inated as his opponent at the last election seemed to Indicate that he feared detec tion in his past unscrupulous career, and his future plans to make good his defi ciencies miscarry. His appeal to Mr. He beisen on Saturday afternoon, Sept. 17, JS9B, to withdraw his name from the Dem ocratic ticket, and Mr. Heboisen's letter of withdrawal two days after the meet ing—Monday, Sept. 19, strengths this the ory. Eefore the withdrawal of the Demo cratic nominee the friends of Mr. Bon gard noticed his strange actions, which were shrouded in a veil of mystery, and It was clearly evident to those nearest him that he was keeping something from the public. As soon as his election was assured he again resumed his natural de meanor. At the time of his appointment nine years ago and at every election his friends pointed out that his resources were sufficient to make gcod any discrep ancies that might occur during his reign, Intentionally, or through clerical errors, and It was on the strength of this alleg ed fact that he received the nomination at the last four Republican county con ventions. The Carver County Journal learns from what it considers reliable sources that at the time of his last elec tion he was ?2,500 short, and it is even alleged that he made this statement to a prominent Democrat of Carver on one of his vote-begging tours. The Journal further nays: The appointment of A. L. Skoog to serve out the unexpired term of County Treas urer Bongard meets with hearty approval throughout the entire county, and he is already spoken of as the Democratic nom inee next -fall.

SHIPPING BILL REPORT PROVISIONS OF MEASI RlO PRE PAHBD BY SK.NATOH FRIB AIIK MADE PUBLIC VALUE OF MERCHANT MAKINE Great Strew* la L«ia I*noon That Sec tion of the Proponed Enactment— Danger of Relying: I'pon Foreign Vessel* in 'Mine of War Pointed Out—K< anon* Given for Decline of American Snipping. WASHINGTON, March 1.-The report prepared by Senator Frye upon the ship ping bill reported by the committee on commerce of the senate was made public today. The report begins by asserting "the self-evident value of a national mer chant marine," explains and deplores our almost entire dependence upon foreign shipping for our ocean carrying, suggests the danger of reliance upon the merchant ships of other nations which may be come Involved in war, the pos&ible com plete exclusion of American exports from their regular foreign markets in such a contingency, and points out that the wholesale entrusting of the tonnage of a belligerent to a neutral flag would render that shipping liable to seizure and deten tion. The humiliation of our reliance upon foreign vessels bought and charter ed during our war with Spain is referred to, and the broad ground 1& taken that under those sections of the constitution which empower congress to provide for the common defense is found the highest authority for the improvement of our merchant marine. Three important rea sons are given for the decline of the American shipping in the foreign trade, namely. First, the greater cost of building ships in the United States than elsewhere; sec ond, the greater cost of operating Amer ican as compared with foreign ships, and, third, causes based on foreign legislative encouragement. The suggestion that this situation may be overcome by the free admission of for eign-built ships to American register is met by pointing out that if such admis sion were unconditional, it wcu d result in destroying existing American ship yards on the Atlantic and Paciiic casts. All competent authorities, the report states, agree that this bill, if enacted, will Involve a large increase in the Amer ican merchant marine. The passage of this bill, it is claimed, would probably effect a reduction of $25,000,000 a year in ocean rates on American commerce, through the additional shipping ar.d the competition that would be created. FOREIGN OPFOSITiON. "Foreign opposition,'" the report says, is being concentrated upon the bill, be cause foreign shipping interests clearly see they would be seriously injured by the replacing of American for foreign ves sels now in our foreign trade. ''The maximum annual expenditures are fixed at $9,000,000 in the bill. Ab_>ut $1,500, --000 is now being paid to American ships, under normal conditions, for carrying our mails, a sum which should be deducted from the estimated cost of the operat'o:i of this bill. About 400,000 additional tons of new shipping, approximately $40,00-1,000, occupying several years in their construc tion, would have to be built in the Unit ed States if this bill is passed before th? maximum expenditure of $9,000,000 could be reached. It is expected that some 300,000 tons of foreign-built vessels now owned or building for American citizens would be admitted to American registers, under the terms of this bill, thetr own ers being required to build equal ton nage in the United States before rece.v ing any compensation. "The provisions of the bill, from every point of view," adds the report, "are overwhelmingly in favor of new and more vessels, more shipyards and gfeater fa cilities for ocean transportation. While deemed unnecessary, a provision h:s b'en inserted under which a vessel cannot re ceive full compensation unless she carries one-half of a cargo. This," says the re port, "completely answers criticism to ths effect that a vessel might run under the bill for the compensation given without carrying a cargo." The report also states: "As the most promising field for the future development of our markets fur agricultural products is northern and temperate Asia, the committee believes that our grain fields and cotton planta tions will gain in greater proportion from the enactment of the law than the sen board shipping and ship-owning states."
