The resolution is: Whereas, of three great industries of the United commercial and States, agricultural, manufacturing, the first two are in a most depressed state, with a view to the betterment of the condition, resolved, that the legislative committee of the National" Farmers' Alliance and Indus trial Union be requested to prepare a to tor bill presentation a congress provision containing that all vessels built owned and armed by citizens of the United States that carry full outgoing cargoes to be des tained by the tonnage of the vessel, of which at least shall consist of home agricultural products, shall be allowed to enter and discharge returning cargoes, provided said cargoes shall consist of manufactured products, at any port of the United States free of all customs duties. We are persuaded that-suca measure properly carried out in detail will not only build up the shipping interest of the country, but result in creating a foreign market for (he surplus agricultural products of the United States. h absolutely denying hav ing used any of the language attributed to him.
