* Dunmore, Walter T. Ship subsidies: an economic study of the policy of subsidizing merchant marines. **$1. Houghton.
The subject of ship subsidies is considered by Mr. Dunmore from an unprejudiced, non-partisan standpoint, and he endeavors to decide what is the best policy from the point of view of the commercial and economic interests of the United States; and also what is best, considering the question in its bearing on the national defense. The study is well tabulated and is provided with a bibliography of books and articles consulted.

Mr. Dunn “was one of a party that strove to reach the summit of Mount McKinley, crowned with everlasting snow and ice in the sub-arctic solitudes of Alaska. Day by day he kept a diary of the movements and adventures of the party, noting the smallest details. After the unsuccessful attempt had ended, and those concerned in it had returned to civilization, the idea of publishing the diary occurred to its author, and he determined to lay before the public an unvarnished tale.”—Dial.
