FATE OF THE RUSTLERS A MYSTERY
Nebraska Vigilantes and Their Captives
Have Covered Their Tracks.

Butte, Neb., July lit is not known
what became of the rustlers captured by
the Kea Paha vigilantes Sunday. A band
passed through Fairfax, S. D., last eve
ming, going west, stating it was their in
tention to proceed to a point north Of
Springview before crossing the state line.
There is little doubt that the rustlers
never reached Springview, as should they
be turned over to the authorities it would
make trouble for Anspecker, the owner
of the stolen cattle, which were being
herded on the Indian reservation con-
trary to instructions from the Indian de-
partment.

READY TO REFUND THE INCOME TAX
Internal Revenue Bureau Has the Work
Well in Hand

Washington, July 1.-THE internal rev.
enue bureau has practically completed the
work Of recording and scheduling the re-
turns received under the income tax act
and very soon will begin the work of
refunding the amounts paid before the
law was declared unconstitutional. The
aggregate Of returns made represent
about $15,oO00O0, and hence about $50, 2OO,-
600, it Is calculated, would have been col
lected If all subject to the tax had sent
in returns. The first decision Of the court
exempting rents and receipts from bonds
from the operation Of tax resulted in a
loss Of fully $15,0 900, SO had the law re-
manned as it originally stood the total re-
ceipts would have Appropriated $780,
600 or even $4,000, 900. These returns indi-
cate that New England and the middle
states would have paid about two-thirds
Of the whole tax and the western and
southern sections each about one-sixth.
