TALKING on THE WAY HOME,
Senator White Discusses the Income
Tux aud Cuban Independence.

Senator White of California, on his way
home from Washington, in an Interview
said: Il would be heartily in favor of
amending the Constitution so as to give
Congress the power to impose a tax on all
incomes The decision Of the Supreme
Court on the income tax bill I regard as
great misfortune. rot only because of its
direct bearing upon the problem of raising
revenue, but because it reversed the pre-
cedents Of century and 1iscredits the
court itself. The dissenting opinions of
Justices White and Harlan seem to me un-
answerable. A just income tax is needed
to provide reserve. and think the people
generally ere in favor of such methods of
raising money to meet the expenses Of the
government"
On the Cuban question Senator White
said: TT is not likely that anything de-
cisive can be done at present to assist
Cuba. The President told the committee
that waited On him to urge action that
the mere recognition of belligerency would
rot be sufficient, and that armed interview
ton only could put an end to the state of
affairs now existing in the island. He told
the committee that Congress had the pow
er to apply that remedy, and asked the
members IL they were willing to assume
the responsibility. OF course, they We're
not willing. AS the President cannot and
Congress will not authorize armed inter-
vention and war with Spain there is little
prospects Of immediate relief for Cuba

him to HPortland to take a position as
bookkeeper in the local branch OF the Lon
don and San Francisco Bank.
OF excellent social qualities and finely
educated, Flinders was not long in this
city before he became a favorite with his
associates. He led fast life and on the
first of each month he found that his SAL
airy was not sufficient to pay his bills, SO
he resorted TO borrowing. He obtained
sums of from $50 to $50 from his friends.
but these amounts did not assist him in
paying his debts, for he loaned money at
random almost as soon as he received 1t.
Two months ago he was about $1,000 short
IN his accounts with his friends, and hav-
ing no money with which to pay the bills
he decided to return to England.
A friend of Flinders to-day received a
letter from him stating that he intended
to pay all obligations contracted by him
while in this city. Some ugly reports
about woman being at the bottom of
Flinders financial trouble have been in
circulation and have been denied by his
friends. 1t has also been reported that he
drew three months salary in advance
from the London and San Francisco Bank
and lett without formally or Informally
rendering his resignation to the manage
ment, but this is denied by the local Off
Gals OF the bank. The woman who was
generally supposed to be mixed up in
Flinders affairs was Mrs. Mcdonald,
who distinguished herself a few months
ago by shooting newspaper man in San
Fran cisco.
