VARIED OPINIONS
A. 10 the Income Tax Amendment 10 the
Wilson Tariff Bill

NEW YORK. May A mass meeting
was held In Cooper union last night to
protest against the dilatoriness OF the
senate in passing upon the Wilson bill.
All was not harmony at the meeting. and
the income tax question was what marked
the dividing of the waters. The storm
broke when Frederick r. Coudert took
issue with James q. Carter and roundly
denounced the income tax measure as
bad, dishonest and un democratic.
One-half of the large crowd hissed and
interrupted the expression OF opinion; the
Others cheered and applauded and hurled
back the epithets applied to Mr.. CouderL
by his opponents from the body OF the
hall. An old man jumped up, shook his
fist at Mr.. Coudert on the platform and
shouted; 1--WE were paying the taxes
while you people were robhing us"
At this point there was tumult. A
chorus of Put him out" burst forth and
every one Jumped up. Half dozen police
men rushed and seized the old man, cur-
rying him TO the rear of the hall. Con-
fusion reigned for some minutes. Finally
Mr.. Coudert put every one ia good humor
by saying that, bad as the income tax was,
he was willing 10 swallow IL for the sake
OF the tariff reduction.
Ex-Secretary of the Treasury Fairchild
called the meeting to order and de-
nounced the senators responsible for the
dearth OF action on the tariff bill He
thought the income tax an unwise meas
ure, but there were many things worse
than it One Of which was 10 have no in
come at all
James Carter made the principal speech
OF the evening. He defended the income
tax as the most just and equitable form
OF taxation. There were manifestat ons
Of approval and disappointment when he
said this, a foreboding of the tumult that
broke forth later when Mr.. Coudert took
the opposite stand to Mr.. Carter. Mr.
Carter also denounced Senators Hill and
Murphy for their attitude toward the
Wilson bill. This seemed to please the
large audience hugely.
