Washington. April l-Representative DazeH' OF
Ponnsy vania who was member Of tire SUD-
committee Of the Ways and Means committee
which investigated the question of the power o.
Congress TO provide for the enforcement OF the
duties of the new tariff bill before its enactment
into law has prepared an argument In support Oh
the validity Of the amendment. Mr.. Dalzel says
that the question Of The competency of Congress 10
enact such measure resolves itself simply INTO
the question to wheth1r or not Congress, under
its power 10 levy and collect taxes can pass a
retroactive measure. lie does not think the case
of Burr against the United States involving the
date enforce of the Wilson bill. mas any
bearing on this question, it was not the intent
of Congress to make the duties apply from August
/. The date named in the bill at which 1t was TO
take effect accident. In the present case
the date which is the material matter involved.
is not an accident. but is Intentionally and de-
signedly Inserted for the express purpose of having
duties levied and collected thereafter.
The taxing power OF Congress ~ to the time OF
Lowing taxes he says. is without limitation, and
he quotes the of sin re Shorts estate. 10.
PENNSYLVANIA State reports. The State of Penn
sylyania IN 1926 passed law by which all inherit
tances within that Commonwealth which by he
nesiacy or the will Of any decedent should devoVe
upon any other than the father. mother VIE
children or lneal descendants Of such person
should be subject 10 tax In 1870 an act was
passed declaring that the words being within Ibis
commonwealth should he construed to relate 10 all
persons who a. the time or their death or
now may be domicied m this Commonweaith as
vania died and his will was admitted to probate
That under the Act Of is26 the estate the dec
dent was not subject 70 tax. and that the Act of
1850 was retroactive and therefore not nperl alive
The supreme Court OF Pennsylvania decided taat
the personal estate Of the decedent within the
Commonwealth OF PennsylvPnia was subject 10 tie
tax; in words. that the Act OF 1880 had retro
active force
Mr. Dalzell adds: THE objection has been urged
thar there cannot be two laws I'm force at the same
time That is true enough. but this Will not leave
two laws in force the same time. In practice
the duties that are called for by existing law VIII
be collected until such time as the bill now undo
consideration snail become law. and hon IN" law
will go into effect to make collcctiblo the eX-
cess of duties called for by the bill over and above
those paid under the pre- sent law. II seems to me
that he amendment has been wisely adopted

New York, September 1S.--A dispatch to
the Herald from Panama says: Accord
ing to advices just received by way of San
Salvador, the city OF Quesaltenango. in
Guatemala. has been captured by the
rebels.
For twenty-four hours the garrison there
held the city. but the rebel forces were
so much greater that they were forced to
surrender.
Immediately following the surrender the
main body Of the garrison Joined the in
surgent ranks. thereby adding to the
strength OF Prospero Morales movement
against President Barrios. The rebels are
now moving on Champerico, and there
will probably be hard fighting there as the
place is garrisoned with strong forces.
The government also holds the towns of
Retalhu and San Felipe despite rebel at
tacks there.
The loss Of Quesaltenango is great
blow to the government and gives Morales
undisputed control of that portion OF
Guatemala. 1t marks, too, II is believed.
the beginning OF the end Of President Bar

that new government will be estab-
lished with Morales at its head
