new OVERLAND LINE
The Union Pacific May Reach
San Francisco.
WOULD BREAK THE MONOPOLY
Scheme by which the Oregon Pacific
May Become Link in Another
TranscontinentaI Road.

San Francisco, May 24.-Within a
few months another transcontinental
railway, the Union Pacific system
will have terminus on the bay of San
Francisco. This will break railroad
monopoly that has held the city in an
iron grip ever since the first railroad
reached this section of the Pacific coast.
After years of patient efforts and many
disappointments, the Union Pacific sys-
tenn has effected an arrangement by
which it can reach San Francisco bay.
Tiburon will be its terminal, and an
increased ferry service between this
city, and that point will be one of the
benefits to this part Of the state.
This will be accomplished by con-
necting link, the Oregon Central &
Eastern railway, formerly the Oregon
Pacific, uniting the Union with the
SaG Francisco & North Pacific railway,
commonly called the Donahue broad
gauge line. The latter is to extend its
line from Ukiah to Covelo. The Ore
gon road now extends to Corvallis and
Yaquina bay, by that state. The con
nectil4S road will follow down the coast
and join the Donahue system.

Vancouver, b. c., May 23.-The
trial of Pat Caine for the murder of
Fl Mau, a Chinese market gardener,

nous in their verdict July 23 was
fixed as the date for the execution.
Caine heard his sentence without the
slightest sign of fear, simply remark
ing: 81 am innocent"

Claim for Reparation.

Washington, May 24.-At the in
stance of Patterson Spriggs, lawyer
of San Diego, Acting Secretary Uhl has
brought to the attention of the Mexi-
can government the claim for repara-
tion of Charles Oberlander of San
Diego. Oberlander was a deputy
marshal in California at the time the
Chinese exclusion act went into effect.
He was employed ON the Mexican bor-
der preventing the smuggling of Chi
nese. His statement is that while thus
engaged he was kidnapped May 90,
1899, by Mexican officers, forcibly car
ried out of the United States and kept
in confinement in Mexican prison
without warrant of law. All the Mex
leans implicated are named in Ober-
lander's statement

THE INCOME TAX DECISION
Declaration That 1t Has Also Killed the
Internal Revenue Laws.

Internal Revenue Laws.
Knoxville, Tenn, May "a. - The
startling announcement is made by
Colonel Noble Smithson, Knoxville
attorney, who has much practice before
the United States supreme court, that
the decision ON the income tax has also
killed the internal revenues laws. In
carefully prepared opinion, Colonel
Smithson says:
Justice Fuller in his opinion says
the constitution divides federal taxa
tion into two classes. First, direct
taxes; second, imposts and excises-and
that direct taxes must be apportioned
among the several states in proportion
to their representation in the house of
representatives. Apparently the logi-
cal result of this opinion is that all fed
eral taxes, except duties on imports
(that is to say, taxes collected under
tariff laws must be apportioned among
the states according to their representa-
tion in the house Of representatives.
An act Of August 81, 1894 (the Wilson
bill), section 4S, provides there shall be
levied and collected on all distilled
spirits, ETC., tax of 81 on each proof
gallon; the statutes of the United
States levy tax of cents a pound ON
tobacco, etc. 1t seems clear, accord
ing to this opinion of the chief JUS
tice, that these are direct taxes on per-
sonal property, and not being appor-
toned among the several states ac-
cording to their representation, they
are unconstitutional and void.
'If this view is correct, the supreme
court has not only wiped out the in
come tax but has practically repealed
the internal revenue as it affects tobac-
co, whisky, brandy, etc. If this con-
struction of the opinion be correct, all
direct taxes, including these ON real
and personal property, must be levied
according to representation, so that the
rich people of New York, Massachusetts
and other Eastern states will pay no
more tax per capita than the poor peo-
pie of the Western and Southern states.
OF course, this is not to be thought of.
The result would be that practically all
revenues for the support of the govern
ment must be raised by duties on i'm
ports, and instead of reducing the tar
iff it will necessarily increase it ma
terially."

The Payment Suspended.

Washington, May 24.-By order of
the president, the payment of claims of
the Nez Perce Indians, amounting to
5000, 600, has been held up. The claims
were in process of examination by the
auditor of the interior department when
brief order was received for suspen-
sion of the work. At the treasury de-
partment it is supposed this order is
due to some recommendations from the
secretary of the interior.

TESTS OF ARMoR.
Foreign Military Attaches Not Admitted

Foreign Military Attaches Not Admitted
at Indian Head.
Washington, May 23.-At nearly all
the tests made at Indian head and other
places where experiments are conduct
ed upon armor, shells and guns, officers
of foreign nayies and arms have been
admitted. Objection has been made to
this by the branches of the service, on
the grounds that the United States is
expending many millions in making
war materials, and that foreign govern
ments have been enabled to procure in
formation concerning these materials
without expense. 1t has been pointed
out that foreign governments are in
the habit of guarding very jealously
their own experiments of this kind, SO
as TO prevent other nations from profit
ing at their expense. Last week, for
the first time, the navy department
adopted new rule. The ordnance
officers were making some most inter.
esting experiments to determine the
question as TO whether a bursting she'll
could be shot through an armor plate
representing the sides of one of the best
of the modern battle-ships. As usual,
applications were made by the mill
tary attaches of the French and Ger
man governments for permission to
witness the experiments, but Assistant
Secretary McAdoo was obliged to deny
the applications as courteously as pos
silbe, and hereafter these officers will
be obliged to acquire information as to
the results of experimental tests from
the recommendations which the ord
nance officials think prudent to make
public.

ed, and soon stores, restaurants and
hotels were opened, and a new town
had been born.
The Kickapoo opening was much in
the nature Of huge farce. At 1910
nearly all claims had from ten to
twenty claimants on them, and those
fartherst from the line were reached
from the border in twenty-five min
utes. In one section 100 claimants,
who had run in from both borders, are
fighting for their claims. At Shawnee
the crowd became restless before the
noon hour arrived. At three minutes
TO twelve, by some watches, and pre-
cisely noon by others, there was break
here and there in the line, wavering,
and then all broke into run. The
race across the level plateau was very
pretty sight.

MERCHANTS NATIONAL CLOSED
The First Failure Of "a National Bank
In Seattle.

Seattle, May 23.-The first failure
of national bank in this city occurred
this morning, when the Merchants
National bank closed its doors, and it
was announced that it would not re-
open.
The bank was Incorporated July 81,
1890, with capital stock of 100000.
In explaining the failure, Angus Mack
intosh, the president, said this morn
ing: This misfortune is the inevi-
table result Of the hard times and the
inability Of the people to respond to
the calls made upon them. Our board
of directors met this morning and de-
cided, in view of the position of things,
not to open today, and to have the
cashier notify the controller Of the ac-
tion taken. We can do nothing until
the examiner comes in. The plan of
consolidation fell through and this
bank will simply liquidate. The bank
will pay all its obligations, and l do
not think that this will absorb any of
the capital stock. Our aim will be to
call upon our stockholders and not to
go through the hands of receiver.
The stockholders will be able to recoup
themselves from the assets as fast as
they are able to realize ON them, and
they will be quite sufficient to make
the stockholders whole again. can
not give you an exact statement Of the
affairs Of the bank until the examiner
gets here, but can say generally that
there are no really bad assets, the only
difficulty being that they are slow to
| realize on"
Washington, May 23.-Controller
Eckels today received telegram stat
ing the Merchants National bank of
Seattle, Wash, had suspended. Ex-
aminer Carson was put in charge. The
banks capital was $500, 900, and at the
last report had assets amounting to
$3.50, 600 and surplus of $4,000. 1t
| is understood one of the causes of the
banks failure was too great holdings
of real estate and securities upon which
it did not realize.

Prefers style to Beauty.

Ask any average woman whether she
would rather bs pretty or stylish, +"
and she will choose the latter q1aliics-
tion almost invariably, says the New
York Tribune 1t il the intangible
something that gives grace and ais
tinction, whereby the wearer of cotton
froek may look better dressed than the
woman clothed In silk and velvet, and II
in rich attire will outshipe her rivals
As to whether OF not style can be
acquired, it may be said that in Ger
tain measure 1t eau be Carriage, for
instance, has an immense effect on
style. and that certainly can be cult
vaued A dowdy woman rarely has q
good poise Of the head and neck and
never walks gracefully, and although
grace and style are not at all synony-
nous, it is impossible to have the one
without certain amount of the other.
AS grace or carriage is successfully
taught by those who understand the
principle, no doubt style also might be
analysed, and rowing girls instructed
in the why aud the wherefore of this
most coveted characteristic
