LdGer lnIortaat1On Is c~onnrInaUory OF
the prediction heretofore sent out that
the income tax proposition of which so
much has been said of late will not ex-
tend much beyond the imposition oil a
tax upon the net earnings of D
lions and upon requests. It is quite
certain that the bill will contain proyi-
sions of this kind, and also that a
Stiff Tax On Proprietary Medicines
will lie levied. This latter tax is meet
ing with general favor. because OF the
prevailing belief that large profits ara
made upon this class of medicines, aud
also because of the simplicity of collect
ing the tax, which can be done by the
sale of stamps. 1t is not believed that
the committee will find many sittings
necessary to complete the internal rev.
enue bill, and the prediction is made
that it will be sufficiently advanced to
make public Friday night or SaturL.-y.
The n great problem which is agitat-
ing the committee is that of finding a
means for making good the deficiency
which will be caused by the tariff reduc-
tons, and some of the members are said
to have reached the conclusion that do
the best they may there will still be inn
projections of this character when the
bill shall have passed the house which
will be left to the senate to deal with,
and they count upon many changes in
the latter body. It is even thus early
limited that the senate will report a sub
stitute for the entire bill.

SECURED lDENCE
A Detective Had Himself I%ncarcer-
ated With Two Alleged MUIR
derers.
1t Is Said He Secured Much Import
ant Evidence Against LOyne and
Conway,
Who Are Accused of killing Harry
- Walraven at MankatO, MIMI,
Recently.

MANKATo, Mimi, Dec. Some time
ago a mar named Evans was arrested on
the charge of passing a forged check
upon the Saulpaugh and was sent to Jail
to await his examination. He was sub
sequently discharged on motion of the
county attorney. 1t now develops that
he was a detective, and was working on
the Harry Walraven murder case.
While in the Jail he ingratiated
himself into the confidence of
Loyne and Conway, who are now
awaiting trial for the murder, and is
said to have obtained some important
facts which will be brought out at the
trial. The detective secured the services
of the same attorneys as Loyne and Con-
way. He did his work SO well that
every one was deceived as to his true
character, but the county attorney adj
mits that he was a detective employed
on the case, but will not divulge what
was learned. The trial of Loyne and
Conway will take place in about two
weeks, and a strong case has been pre-
pared against them.

Low PRICE OF COTTON.


The House Investigating Committee Has
Nearly Finished Its Labors.
WASHINGTON, Dec. Reports re-
celved from the su committee on agri-
culture, ivestigating the low price of
cotton. are TO the effect that the COM
mittee had almost concluded its investi-
CATION in the cotton growing districts.
The committee is at pres mt in New
Orleans. The investigation has been
very thorough, and the testimony of
many persons who are IN possession
of facts bearing on the question
and OF those who hold opinions have
been taken by the committee. There is
some complaint of over production and
OF the lack of u diversity of crops in the
South, but the general belief seems to be
that the scarcity of money is the one
great reason for the existing depression.
1t is probable that the committee will
visit New Yerk and the cotton manufac-
turing districts of the Eastern states
soon after the HOLIDAYS.

The Recalled Naval Onicer Reaches New
York From Rio.
NEW YORK, Dec. Admiral Stan
ton, who vas relieved Of his command
of the South American squadron for
''saluting the i%nsurgent Admiral Mello
In Rio harbor," arrived here On the
steamship Spree. In conversation with
a representative of the Associated Press,
who boarded the Spree at Quarantine
and came up to New York with him,
the admiral said:
Il sailed from Rio on Oct. 81 on the
steamship Thames, my intention being
to sail for New York on the City Of
Paris, which | missed by six hours. l
then arranged to sail on the Spree from
Southampton Nov. g."
The Associated Press man asked Ad-
miral Stanton If he would say anything
about the incident in Rio harbor which
resulted in his being relieved of his COM
mani.
Il will have to ask you to excuse me
from speaking of that" he replied. az

ceiyed q dispatch from the navy depart
ment ordering my Immediate return but

thing ON the subject until I have re-
ported to the secretary of the navy. /
have had scarcely any opportunity to
see the newspapers since l sailed froru
Rio, and have only seen the English pa
pers."
The admiral will go to his home at
New London, Conn, and await further
orders from Washington. He said the
outcome of the Brazilian rebellion was
difficult to predict. No great damage
had been done on either side.

What Will Probably BE Done by the
Ways and Means Committee.
WASHINGTON, Dec. Those who
have been counting upon an internal rev.
enue bill to be reported by the Demo-
cratic members Of the committee on
ways and means, which would revolu-
tionize the whisky and tobacco tax, may
yet be disappointed. The whole ques-
ton of internal evenue has been dis
cussed pro and con by the committee
and a wide range of plans canyassed.
The question has been found to be one
OF the most difficult of all that the COM
mittee has been called upon to deal with
and it Is asserted by those in a position
to know, that there are members of the
commItte who
Have Changed Their Views
on material points since the exchange of
opinion was begun and since their re-
search and investigations have been di-
rected into different channels by fellow
members and by outsiders. 1t is, for
instance, said that almost all of the
members were favorable to q heavy
Increase OF the tax on whisky and to-
tacco, when they first met as a commit
tie, but it j. asserted that the views
q many OF them have undergone such a
radical change upon this question that
il is eve doubtful whether a majority
can be found favoring any increase
whatever upon the present rates upon
these articles, and that if there should
be any increase it win grudgingly be
given, and only because the reduction of
duty proposed by the tariff bill will rem
der it necessary to increase the collec-
ton from internal revenue sources
