ASKS STATES TO
VOTE INCOME-TAX
House Submits Resolution for
Amendment to the -Constitution.
"NO," SAY 14 REPUBLICANS
l'ayne Denounces Tax as Breeder ol
l.lars Democrats Say Oppo
nents Aaiu Steal Plank of
Their Platform.
WASHINGTON. July 12. By the deci
sive vote of 317 to 14. more than the neces
sary two-thirds, the House today passed
the Senate Joint resolution providing for
the submission of an income tax consti
tutional amendment to the states. The
negative votes were all cast by Repub
licans. The resolution now goes to the
President for hla signature.
The debate lasted four hours. Chair
man Payne, of the committee on ways
and means, voiced the sentiment that
such a tax would make "a nation of
liars." Tlja burden of the Iemocratlo
speeches was that it was simply a case
of stealing Democratic thunder, although
some of the remarks on that side inci
dentally touched upon tariff and the cor
poration tax. wih no little amount of
castlgatlon of the Republicans for failing
to keep party pledges.
Will Only Tax Honest Men.
The House began by resolving to tak a
vote at 4 o'clock and then Payne delivered
his denunciation of an income tax . in
time of peace. He believed it was the
most difficult of enforcement and the
hardest to collect. "It is. In, a word."
he said, "a tax upon the incomes of hon
est men and an exemption to some extent,
to the rascals."
He hoped it would never be Invoked.
"We welcome the conversion of the Re
publican party to another Democratic
principle." was the comment of Clark, of
Missouri, the minority leader, who got
rousing applause from his side of the
chamber for his utterance. An income
tax, he maintained, was a Democratic
principle.
Another Democratic Plank.
"One by one the roses fall," he said,
addressing the Republican side, "and one
by one you adopt our platform."
He concluded by expressing himself In
favor of Increasing the amount of exemp
tion above ono. This led aim into a col
loquy with Burke, of Pennsylvania.
"How far above 15000, and why?" Burke
asked.
"I would fix whatever figure I did fix
for the public good," sharply answered
Clark.
Upon being pressed to be more specific.
Clark said he would want to think the
matter over.
Clayton, of Alabama, declared that, if
the question had been put to him, he
would exempt the poor man, who was
least able to bear the burdens ol gov
ernment and would tax the multi-millionaire
and thereby make the idle rich pay
something to the support of the Federal
Government.
"Get" Willie Waldorr Astor.
"I would." he exclaimed, amid Demo
cratic applause, "get your Willie Wal
dorf As tors who have millions of Income
and live abroad, in the light. I would get
x the I.aird of Skybo or Skeebo. or what
ever you call it."
"Hobo," a voice on the Republican side
was heard to say.
"I scorn." said James of Kentucky in
favoring the resolution, "a Government
whose taxing power provides that Laz
arus shall share his crumbs, but that
Dives must not give up his riches."
James quoted from an ante-election
speech, in which Mr. Taft favored a
graduated income tax and expressed the
view that perhaps a change in the per
sonnel or the United States Supreme
Court might effect a reversal of its for
mer opinion holding the Income tax un
constitutional. Takes Taft to Task.
"Tou denounce Bryan for that." he ex
claimed, facing the Republican side. "You
said he was assailing the honor and ln
. tegrity of the Supreme Court, yet the
man you elevated to the loftiest station
In the Nation virtually repeated the very
same words that for twelve years the
Democratic party in every platform had
uttered."
While favoring the amendment. Henry
. of Texas expressed the fear that It would
suffer defeat if submitted to the Legis
latures. He desired to have the proposi
tion submitted to constitutional conven
tions. Bartlett of Georgia shared in this
view.
In a fiery speech in support of an in
come tax, Robinson of Arkansas ar
raigned the Republicans for, as he
charged, "fooling the people" before the
last Presidential election. He defended
William Jennings Bryan, declaring that
lie stood head and shoulders above any
other man in private life.
Xo Constitutional Convention.
Henry of Texas vainly sought to offer
an amendment providing for the sub
mission of the question through consti
tutional conventions, but the Speaker
ruled that under the agreement for a
vote no amendment was in order. From
that decision Henry appealed and suc
ceeded in forcing a roll-call. The vote
resulted: Yeas, 185; nays, 143, thus sus
taining the Speaker.
The vote on the resolution resulted 317
to 14. The Democrats voted solidly for
the resolution, but the following Repub
licans voted against it: Allen. Maine;
Barchfield, Dalzell, McCreery and Wheel
er. Pennsylvania; Fordney, Michigan;
Gardner. McCall and Weeks. Massachu
setts; Hill and Henry. Connecticut; Ol
cott and Southwick. New York, and Cal
flerhead, Kansas.
CORPORATION TAX FIXED

crease from 1H to 2Vi cents a pound
which the Senate made on lead bullion.
As result, this schedule was held up
and consequently there has been no set
tlement of the amendments to the items
in the chemical schedule, such as paints,
the basis of which is lead.
The more important subjects passed
over in the metal schedule are iron
ore, load bullion and zinc ore and bul
lion. There are a large number of
amendments relating to finished prod
ucts of these ores that cannot be dis
posed of until the main subjects are
settled. Iron ore was placed on the
free list by the House and made duti
able at 25 cents a ton by the Senate.
The Dingley rate is 40 cents a ton.
The general impression is that the Sen
ate will mako a concession to the
House and that as a compromise the
rate will be fixed at 10 or 15 cents a
ton.
The House provision for free hides.
struck out by the Senate, which sub
stituted the existing rate of 25 per cent
ad valorem, will be contested, as will
the lumber schedule. The House rate
ot $1 on lumber was materially in
creased by the Senate.
The amendment adopted by the Sen
ate providing for the establishment of
a customs court is likely to be accepted
by the House conferes. An effort will
be made to fix the salaries of the
Judges at $10,000.
The Senate maximum and minimum
provision will probably be accepted
w-lth some minor changes. . '
That cotton bagging, which was put
on the free list by the Senate, is not
to remain undutiable, is one of the first
predictions made. The House conferees J
contend that a number of American
manufacturers of cotton bagging would
be compelled to shut down if that ar
ticle should remain on the free list.
Coal Duty 4 0 Cents.
Another prediction is that the duty
on coal, which is 60 cents in the Sen
ate bill, as compared with 87 cents in
the existing law. will be finally agreed
on at 40 cents in conference.
The low tariff men on the House
committee objected to an increase of
35 cents per square foot made by the
Senate on card clotliino- when madf
with face cloth containing wool. Siml-
lar objections are expected to the countervailing-
duty on petroleum, the plac
ing of hides on the free list and the
return of cocoa to the non-dutiable
list.

hearings in the Justice Court in the
morning, at which ex-Mayor Law. Coun
cilman Pratt and a number of prominent
citizens will come up for trial on charges
varying from poaching to assault and bat
tery and even highway robbery. The trou
ble has all come about over the drastic
measures of the officials in their attempts
to enforce the local option law. Ordi
nances were also passed closing restau
rants as well as near-beer saloons on
Sunday.
The proposed recall, for which the peti
tion has now a long list of signatures,
was checked today and the promoters of
the movement put to their wits' end by
the resignation of City Recorder Happ
ner. The resignation of this official was
accepted by the Council and now the pe
tition cannot be filed unless the Council
sees fit to appoint a new Recorder. This
the beeleged officials are not likely to do.

in ousting them from office.
District Attorney Ivanhoe arrived to
night and was in consultation with the
warring factions until a late hour, but no
new developments were announced.

quise de la Roche Bryant, "and I can
see nothing dishonorable in trying to
sell one of my titles. I have 29 and

Tack' on Seeing Thaw's Signs
of Sanity Evelyn Thaw to
Testify for Husband.
WHITE PLAINS, N. Y., July 12. If
counsel can agree, a commission of
theee alienists, mutually selected, will
pass upon Harry K. Thaw's ' sanity.

leased from the asylum for the criminal
insane at Matteawan.

of Thaw, and with the Indication that
his wife, Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, will take
the stand in his behalf. Thaw's chances
for release appear brighter than at any
time since his commitment. District

proceedings.
Thaw Makes Good Impression.
Roger Clark, Deputy Attorney Gen
eral, who is conducting the people's
case. Informed the court that he had
been so much impressed by Thaw's In
telligent interest in the issues at stake
that ho was willing to concede Thaw's
right to a full examination. He sug
gested that counsel for Thaw and coun
sel for the people agree to a commis
sion of three expert alienists, whose de
cision should be accepted by both par
ties to the suit without reservation.
Charles Morschauser, for Thaw, agreed
to this.
Let Counsel . Name Experts.
Justice Mills favored the suggestion for
a commission, but was of the opinion
that the state ought to name two or
three experts. With this exception, he
left the personnel of the commission to
be determined by Joint counsel Mr.
Morschauser pressed for another advan
tage for his client by asking the court
that, in the event of the selection of a
commission in lunacy, any one who testi

men, a dentist and a reporter, all called
by Thaw, was uniformly in his favor.

the stone age should be placed some 500

WOMEN MAKE SPEECHES
SUFFRAGETTES SAY MINISTERS
SHOULD BE IN DOCK.
Refuse to Pay Fines and Tell Judge
Throwing Stones Was
Political Act.
LONDON. July 12. Fifteen of the suf
fragettes who in the cours of their raid
on the House of Commons indulged in
the breaking of -windows with stones
hidden in paper parcels went to prison
for a month today rather than pay the
fines inflicted by Sir Aoelbert de Reutzen
of the Bow-street Police Court. Sir Adel
bert commented severely on the lamenta
ble spectacle of respectable women in the
dock on charges usually associated with
Juvenile hoodlums.
i The suffragettes, most' of whom made
short speeches, maintained that their
offenses were purely political. The course
of Premier- Asquith in refusing to accept
their petition, they said, had made mili
tant action necessary and, if women
were in the wrong. Home Secretary Glad
stone, War Secretary Haldane and John
Burns, President of the Local Govern
ment Board, who had incited them by
taunting them with the statement that
they were using only "pin prick me
thods," ought to be -beside them in the
dock.
The four suffragettes who last Saturday
presented a petition to Premier Asquith,
after which they were arrested and
charged at tha Police Court with disorder
ly conduct, today refused to give un
dertakings for their good behavior. They
declined to pay the lines imposed and
were sentenced each to three weeks' im
prisonment. SUES FOR GREAT ESTATE
Brother of Madame de la Veaga
Claims Bulk of $4,000,000.
SAN FRANCISCO. July 12. Miguel de
la Veaga filed today a contest of the will
of. his sister. Maria t Concepcion de la
Veaga, alleging that she had been incom
petent from birth and that she was un
duly influenced by their sister. Maria Jo
sefa Cebrlan. with the result that the tes
tator left the bulk of her J4,000,000 estate
to Mrs. Cebrlan rather than to him. The
suit involves one of the richest of the
old Spanish land grants. Half of the
property is in California and half in
Mexico.
A curious point In the contest will be
the spelling of a word, upon one letter of
which the disposition of the De la Veaga
mines might depend. The will was writ
ten in Spanish. In it occurs the word
"hermana." meaning sister. Had it been
written "hermano," meaning brother, De
la Veaga claims, the estate would have
been his.
The contestant at first determined to
base his suit on this ground, but later
changed it to "undue influence."

Boycott in Montana Against Butter
ick Violates Sherman' Law.
HELENA,Mont., July 12. There was
received here today for filing a copy
of the opinion of United States Dis
trict Judge Bean at Portland in the
injunction suit of the .Butterlck Pub
lishing Company, of New York, 'against
the Anaconda Typographical Union and
other Montana labor organizations.
Judge Bean holds that the Montana
Federation of Labor is a party to the
"unlawful boycott" and that the com
plainant is therefore entitled to in
junctive relief against it. He further
holds that the evidence fails to sus
tain the charge against the Anaconda
Clerks' Union. Continuing, the deci
sion says:
"The exception to that part; of the
master's report in which he recom
mends that judgment be awarded
against the Anaconda Typographical
Union and its officers for double tho
amount of damages sustained by the
complainant on account of the action
of such union will be sustained. This
suit will be maintained because of a
violation of the Sherman anti-,trust
law."
