TO KEEP OUT ANARCHISTS.
The Senate Amends and Passes the
Hill Bill.

WASHINGTON, Aug. EN- the sem
ate today a resolution was introduced
by Mr.. Mills and ordered to lie on the
table temporarily, declaring that in the
revision of the existing system of ma
tional taxation the following principles
should be observed:
q. That all taxes are burdens on the
taxpayers and can only be rightfully
imposed to raise revenue to support the
government.
-. That when taxes are imposed on
imported goods the rate should be so
low as not to materially restrict importa-
tions, and
"3. That in selecting articles to be
taxed only those ready for consumption
should be chosen. and those imported
for manufacture or remanufacture
should be exempt
The resolution offered Aug. 1 by Mr.
Chandler. looking to the investigation Of
the Dominion coal company of Nova
Scotia, and the substitute offered by Mr.
Mills In the way of an addition to the
original resolution providing that a spe-
cial committee of five should be directed
to report to the senate whether any
member of congress is, or was, interest
ed in any company engaged in mining
coal in any of the states of the United
States or any railroad company engaged
in transporting coal which would come
into competition with the Dominion coal
company, and whether its removal would
reduce the price of coal to consumers
and what section of the country would
be benefited by its retention.
A discussion arose between Mr.. Mills
and Mr.. Chandler as to whether the old
sugar" committee should be entrusted
with this investigation or whether a new
committee should be appointed. Mr.
Mills favored the retension of the old
committee because, as he said, it was
honest and capable and had recently
made an exhaustive investigation and
had reported that the charges made
against senators had not been sustained.
rs that the reason the senator from
Texas favors this committee" inquired
Mr.. Chandler.
Mr.. Mills answered that he was not
influenced by any such motives and ex-

WASHINGTON. Aug 6-Several hun
dred letters containing tenders of service

the legation here. They come from near
" every part of the United States. One
Of the latest was from an ex-confederate

battalion, and even a regiment of men, if
desired. Another was from the foreign
legion of Cleveland, a third came from
an individual who was willing 10 raise a
company Of picked sharp-shooters. and
fourth was from person who had some
torpedo device he was willing 10 part
with for a consideration. Such cOmmuni-
cations as the last mentioned are turned
over to the naval attache Of the legation
TO do with as he deems best. To the
others the legation officials return polite
destinations. 1t is a penal ofense for
Americans to serve either in the Chinese
or Japanese service while the two
