Investigated.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 5. If the people
of Washington are being- discriminated
aKAlnst by the coal-carrylo8" railroads, as
now seems to be the case, the facts of
the matter will soon be made known and
such action will follow as will beat suit
the requirements of the situation. The
District -CommtHelonittra auve appointed a
committee of cltlsens, chosen by the. pres
ident , oi ih..J3o(ft of xg&M'&n$lJK?,
Business Men's Association, . to investi
gate the charges of discrimination and to
determine what steps are necessary and
can be taken toward breaking the dead
lock which Is apparently cutting Wash
ington oft entirely from the coal supply
now being shipped from the anttiradhe
mines.
The committee was appointed upon the
motion of Commissioner Macfarland, the
president of the local board. It has been
represented to the commissioners by
President Thomas W. Smith of the Board
of Trade and other officers of that or
ganization that some action .should be
taken at once to prevent a possible coal
famine in this city in midwinter, with
all its disastrous consequences. Com
missioner Macfarland took up the mat
ter, and, after consultation with a num
ber of prominent cltsens, recommended
to his associate commissioners that the
situation should be treated as an excep
tional case, warranting the intervention
which IS proposed.
ITS EFFECTS. ' '
Commissioner Macfarland states hat as
a matter which affected the well-being of
the entire District, and the health, as well
as the comfort, of every home, it oould
be distinguished easily and properly
from the ordinary commercial operations,
so as to deserve and receive the attention
of the executive government of the Dis
trict of Columbia. It was agreed by the
other commissioner thatthis -was the
case, and thereupon the action was taken,
Mr. Macfarland, suggested the appoint
men! of a committee of ten. Composed
of fire members from the Board. of Trade
and five members from the Business
Men's Association. He consulted 'with
Mr. Smith, president cf the Board of
Trade, and with lYesldent Gude of the
business men's organisation. Mr. Mac
farland asked Mr. Smith to act as chair
man of the committee, and he consented
to do so. President Gude will also be a
member of the committee, the complete
personnel of which is as follows; ,

WASHINGTON, Dec 8.-A prohiblUve
tax nlni'Prl nn a . n..A r m
poraUons, this tax to te levied and coll
lected by the machinery provided for the
collection of Internal revenues of the
government. Is a remedy proposed to
meet the trust evil, which Representative
Hepburn of Iowa believes would annihi
late that class of combinations formed
not tor the legitimate purpose of trade
or commerce, but for the sole purpose of
making money out of stock vajues.
"And this is exactly the form of trust
that cauHes all of the evil," declared Col.
Hepburn in disc u string the subject.
When you take away the opportunity t
of the professional 'promoter" of getting
rich simply through the organisation of
a trust and the Issuance of ehormous
quantities of stock baaed on ncthhig but
the visionary dividend earning capacity
of the projiosed enterprise you w.ilf at
once put an effectual end to such organ
izations. In my opinion a prohibitive tax on the
stock of every corporation whloli Is not
representative of substanttaJ value would
wle such corporations out of existence,
and when that-was d6no combinations
would be made only for the legitimate
trede advantages which could be secured.
Combinations of the latter .class, in my
opinion; are not harmful.
"V MORGAN'S MERGER.
' "As an example, take Mr. Morgan's
steamship merger. Wrhat motive did Mc.
LAioreaa ha.v,Jn $RgineesiBg..th! gigantic
scheme through if it were not for fhe
SPvat proht he could derive, not through
the legitimate business of shipping, but
through the Issuance of stock based on
the combination. If the matter were nn
nlyred it would be found that Mr. Mor
gan Is not posted, or even Interested, in
the conditions governing the actual busi
ness of the navigation of the Atlantic
Ocean. He, as a professional promoter,
sees a chance to make a great combina
tion on which a fabulous amount of stock
can be issued and sold, and through
which Incidentally Mr. Morgan will reap
an enormous prollt.
"The motive for the railroad mergers
will be found to be the same, and It is
this gambling on the possibilities of enor
mous profits which becomes at once the
money-making end of the trust and not
.lbaJusJUraata jsoines..whlcb-.shxjuJdaie..J
the real cause for the combination and
the real source of the profit."
"How would you put your Idea.' into operation?''-
- :. ; . . .
"Simply give the collectors of Internal
stock of corporations the same as-tliey
place a value on liquor and cigars, have
the tax on the stock which did not repre
sent actual value subject to a fixed tax.
This fixed tax In evdry Instance to be
sufficiently til eh to make the existence of
such stork impossible.
"In order that no injustice might be
done and that the right of appeal might
be hd from the decision of the Internal
revenue collector, provision should be
made for a special board of appeal, and
even the Judgment of this board might
l appealed from to the federal courts.
This. In my Judgment, would be ample
machinery and a practical method of
reaching the evil efTectr of trusts.
"It. however, Is a remedy which has oc
curred to me during the past few months,
and beyond thinking it out along the lines
I have suggested I have given It no care
ful research. Whether It wourd meet the
ideas of Congress or whether I shall pre
sent it In the form of a bill for consider
ation I am unable to say."

THIRD AND STARK STS.
(Journal Special Service.)
WASHINGTON, Dec 6. The commis
sioner of internal revenue estimates that
the receipts duning the fiscal year ending;
June 30 next will amount to 1220,000,000.
The receipts last year were $271,867,990,
and the year before they were S306.&71.669.
The decrease Is solely due to the repeal
of the war taxes..
The aggregate decrease would be much
more, but the phenomenal prosperity of
the country has increased the general re
ceipts to such an qxtent that the loss, on
account of the repeal of the war taxes,
has been partially offset.
