Harriman Must Not Labor So Stren

Vienna, Austria, July 6. Edward
H. Harriman, th American railroad
wizard, must not work again so bard
or so continuously as ho has dona in
tbe past This is the edict of Dr.
Adolf Struempell, the noted Vienna
specialist, who has diagnosed Harri-
man's ailment as incipient paralysis.
In obedience to this edict is Harri-
man's only safety.
For the present, declares Professor
Struempell, Mr. Harriman must have
complete quiet. To this end his meals
are now being served in his room, and
he only emerges therefrom once a day
to take the mild exercise which has

A BRIEF DAILY REPORT ON
THE WORK OF CONGRESS
Every Man In Jiklrl's Band Is Killed
" by D. S. Troops.
Attacked in Mountains, They Flee to
Last Retreat Only One American
Killed, but Many Wounded Jikiri
Had Made Many Raids but Aiwa) s
Elude J Pursuit.
Jikiri, the famous Moro outlaw chief,

scouts and constabulary and a detach'
ment of sailors under Lieutenant Com
mander Signor, located and attacked
the outlaws in the mountains far from
the coast The Moros fled and took
refuge in a large cave. The column
of troops and sailors surrounded the
place, but Jikiri refused to surrender,
A concerted attack was made, the
Moros fighting desperately in the
mouth of the cave until the last mem
ber of the band whs dead. As yet but
few details of the fight have .been re

DEATH LIST CUT.
Tbe course of treatment through
which Mr. Harriman is now being put
is intended to cure bis nervous trouble
and get him into as good physical con
dition as possible, after which an en
tirely new course of treatment will be

paralysis which is affecting his limbs,
This cannot be cured, Mr. Harriman
has been informed, but its acute sympt
oms can be relieved and its progress
stayed.
Mrs. Hsrnman is remaining con
stantly by his side, and her ministra
tions form an important feature of the

Annual Patriotic Carnage is Greatly
Reduced.
Chicago, July 6. With three days'
celebration of tbe nation's birthday
this year, the remarkable fact stands
out boldly that the annual carnage has
been decreased to a great degree. Ad'
vices from all points up to midnight
show that in all large cities new rules
and their strict enforcement have
checked the customary slaughter of
children.
In New York there were but four
deaths for the three days. In Chicago,
usually drenched with blood under the
guise of patriotism, there was not a
single death for the three days. In
Washington there were no deaths and
no injuries, and only the smallest fire'
crackers were permitted.
Five deaths are reported from the
state of Massachusetts, one each in
Boston and other large cities. One
death is reported from Philadelphia.
Tbe entire'state of Oklahoma reports
but two deaths and nine serious injur
ies. Small cities in New Jersey and
Pennsylvania and Far Western locali
ties seemed most patriotic in casual
ties this year. In every case this can
be traced to lax police regulations.
German Invents a New Game Much
Less Dangerous to Play.
Paris, July 6. A new game of the
diabolo type is springing into favor
here, and as the American patents have
been taken out "la funda" will no
doubt be seen before Ion,? in America.
"La funda" is a new form of sung,
its name shows. A little bag on
wooden framework is fixed on a swivel
into a sort of tennis racket without
strings or top. The bottom of the bag
is open, and two strong india rubber
bands pi event the ball, a tennis ball,
from falling through. The game is to
sling the ball from one player to an
other or up into the air, to be caught
by the same player at will.
It needs a certain amount of skill
and is certainly less dangerous and just
as healthy as diabolo. The inventor
is a young German named Seeger, who
in a demonstration which he gave tbe
other afternoon threw a tennis ball
higher than the Chimneys or a seven-
story house and caught it again with
out apparent effort
Tuesdsy. July 6.
Washington, July 6. The Republi
can majority of the senate finance com
mittee today stirred up a hornets' nest
by reporting the new schedule of to
bacco taxes as having been recom
mended when it had not even been sub
mitted to the minority members, much
less laid before a meeting of the whole
committee. Aldrich was forced to
back water and recognize the rights of
the minority.
Aldrich said that he would call a
meeting of the finance committee for
tomorrow morning, giving the minor
ity members a chance to express their
opinion.
All sections of tbe bill that senators
do not desire to reserve for further
amendment will now be agreed to en
bloc. Tbe senate then will consider
the tobacco amendment the only
amendment not adopted in committee
of the whole.
Monday, July 5.
Washington, July 6. By unanimous
vote the senate today adopted the reso
lution submitting to the state legiala
turea the income tax amendment to the
Federal constitution. Then it devoted
its attention to the administrative
features of the tariff bill and adopted
them. The tobacco schedule will be
considered tomorrow with a few other
uncompleted details and then the bill
will be reported from committete ol
the whole to the senate. Tbe only
ubject likely to provoke debate is the
tobacco schedule. The proceedings af
ter the bill is reported will be brief
and the bill will then go to conference.

CUSHMAN IS DEAD.
Congressmsn from Washington Pssses
Away at New York.
New York, July 6. Francis W
Cushman, representative in congress
from Washington, died at 5 o clock

from pneumonia. At the bedside at
the time were, besides the doctors and
nurces. United States Senator Samuel
H. Piles, of Washington, and Andrew
S. Burleigh, of this city, a life long
friend.
Congressman Cushman underwent an
operation a abort time ago and pneu
monia resulted.
Senator Piles apd Mr. Burleigh, who
bad been with the patient almost con'
stantly since his condition became ser
ious, said they would make arrange
ments for the sending of tbe body to
Washington.
Two Pleasure Launches Imperilled,
but Reach Shore Safely.
Salt Lake, July 6. A wind storm
swept over Great Salt lake last even
ing, dashed the heavy water in huge
broadsides against the Saltair pavilion
and threatened the existence of two
small pleasure boats cruising off shore,
After a struggle with the wind and
the waves in which the voyagers were
drenched with sslt water, the launches
regained the pavilion.
In making a landing, one of the
boats wss dashed against the pier and
badly damaged. No one, boa ever, was
injured. Tbe gale, though of brief
duration, was one of the most violent
in the history of the lake. Rumors
that one of the boats had gone down
with 60 passengers reached here and
there was great anxiety until the out
come was known.

which is being watched with much in
terest by the wholesale dealers in fru
and vegetables at Coven t Garden and
other markets in tbe metropolis is be
ing made a connection with the con
veyingof fruit ard vegetables from
long distances by motor. Yesterday
a motor van containing almost a lecord

had been dispatched by train.
Man Falls Into Asphalt.
Los Angeles, July 6. Buried almost
up to bis nose in a barrel of liquid
asphalt Salvador Talamantes, a I
borer, was found early this morning
almost suffocated. It required four
men to get bim out Talamantes fell

self be plunged both arms into the
asphalt and sank deeper. He was
found by Deputy Constable Miklaus-
hutz, who wrenched his back trying to
save the man. The Mexican wss fin
silly extricated.
Saturday, July 3.
Washington, July 3. -Senator Aid-
rich achieved another sweeping victory
this afternoon when, by a vote of more
than 2 to 1. the maximum and mini
mum feature of the senate tariff bill
was passed. This goes into effect on
March 1, 1910. It empowers the pres
ident to add 25 per cent ad valorem to
all existing schedules, whether on the
free list or dutiable, to those countries
discriminating against the United
States.
In other words, where foreign na
tions are disposed to accept trade with
America on the basis of the adminis
trative tariff bill, soon to be enacted.
the statute will not be elastic, but will
stand as passed. But where nations
prohibit, by excessive taxes, goods pro
duced in this country, the president
may retaliate by the simple issuance
of a proclamation adding 25 per cent
advalorem to everything coming into
American ports from such restrictive
nations.
The bill aims particularly at France.
The French people, as well as the Ger
mans, but tbe latter to a less obnoxious
extent fearful of the progress of the
American manufacturer, have been
raising item after item, so it was ex
plained today, until now American
goods are almost prohibited from en fer
ine French and German territories.
There remain 17 other administrative
features of the tariff bill to dispose of
before it goes to tbe house. The report
is ton eht that the senate will have
each of them out of the wsy by Thurs
day, and that on Monday, July 12, the
lower branch of congress will begin the
consideration of the measure.
Friday, Jul 2.
Washington, July 2. The corpora
tion tax amendment suggested by
President Taft drawn by Attorney
General Wickersham and presented to
the senate by Chairman Aldrich, of the
committee on finance, is an integral
part of the tariff bill as that bill now
stands.
The senate reached a vote on the
proposition shortly before adjourning
at 7 o'clock this evening, and the
ami n Iment was agreed to by the large
vote of 60 to 11, with all modifying
amendments disposed of, many Demo
crats voting for the amendment with
moat of the Republicans. The test
vote was on the substitution of the
corporation tax amendment for the in
come tax provision.
Idaho, the only speakers before the sen
ate today.
Borah waa beard toward the close of
tbe session, when the Iowa senator
yielded tbe floor, which he had held
since yesterday. Ho took lor his text
the declaration made yesterday by
Aldrich that be would vote for the cor
poration tax amendment only as a
means of defeating the income tax,
and without resorting to personalities
be criticised the position of the chair
man of the finance committee, who bad
presented tbe corporation tax amend
ment to tbe senate.
Estimating the total revenues under
the Aldrieh-Payne bill at $360,000,000,
and those to be derived from the inter
nal revenue at $240,000,000, he pre
dicted that at the end of the fiscal year
1911 there would be a deficit of not
less than $175,000,000. He therefore
contended that the amendment of the
tariff bill by the addition of an income
tax was necessary in order to produce
sufficient revenue.
Nothing Doing in Oleo.
Washington, July 6. President Taft
has expressed himself aa opposed to
the plan of Secretary of the Treasury
McVesKh to raise S2.000.000 by an in
ternal revenue tax of 2 cents a bound.
flat rate, on oleomargarine. The dairy'
men, according to Representative
Tawney, of Minnesota, chairman of the
committee on appropriations, are op
posed to the scheme. Secretary Mc-
Veagh has stated that he has no desire-
to introduce a bill to carry out his ideas
unless "all interests" agreed on the
terms. The objection of President
Taft and the dairy interests will obvi
ouslv be sufficient to mar the intro
duction of such a bill futile.

Washington, July 2. Changes in the
daily cash system of the Treasury de
part ment to correct discrepancies in
publication or balances were announced
to take effect at once. The published

Taft to Get Expenses.
Washington, July 2. The house

ciency appropriation bill, the total of
which, it is now believed, will approx

appropriation of $25,000 with which to
pay the traveling expenses of the pres
ident, thus leaving intact his salary or
$75,000. Other items are $200,000 to

sistants to the Department of Justice.

Thursday, July I.
Washington, July 1. The senate
"came within one" today of agreeing
to vote next Tuesday on the entire in
come tax amendment to the tariff bill,
including the corporation tax substi
tute. Tbe compact was prevenU-d by
the objection of Hulks-ley.
There were several speeches today,
Borsh leading off in favor of the in
come tax and Root advocating the cor
poration tax but opposing the income
tax. It was evident throughout the
entire dsy that the corporation tax had
failed to arouse as much interest in the
?nate as had been expected. During
the debate today Bourne, of Oregon,
predicted that the corporation tax
would result in publicity of corportion
affairs and tbus prove of great service
to tbe public.
