should enlist in the army should not
have their absence from their home

the contrary the time which they

WAR REVENUES
Things to Be Taxed to Provide Neces-
sary Funds

WASHINGTON, April 22.-The Repub-
lican members of the ways and means
committee completed the war revenue
measure today and sent it to the printer.
1t will probably be submitted to the full
committee on Wednesday. The bill as now
prepared, it is estima ted, will raise between
S95, 900 900 and 00,000 900 annually. The de-
cision made today was that the determina-
ton is not to place tax upon either of the
substitute propositions, railroad and other
transportation tickets or petroleum. 1t was
decided, however, to place n tax of l cent
upon chewing gum and and cents on
mineral waters ginger ale and foreign and
native wines-2 cents on pints and cents
on quarts. These additions are made to
the stamp act of 1866, which is re-enacted
with notifications
A tonnage tax, which is expected to
raise s., 500, 900, is also incorporated in the
bill. The addition of 81 per barrel upon
beer is expected to raise s35 900 900. The
question of allowing a rebate on beer
stamps is still open.
The doubling of the tobacco tax and the
provision for retail license of $3.50 are
expected to raise $50 900 900, and the pro-
visions of the stamp tax over $50, 900 600.

Coast Vessels Overdue

SEATTLE. WASH, April 22-Anxiety is

long overdue and one which left the Sound
early in March. The outbound vessel Is
the bark Forest Queen, which left hero

lumber. She has never been heard of
since, and hope of ever seeing her or her

AT THE WHITE HOUSE
Cabinet Officers Discussing Declara-

WASHINGTON, April 22-It was unus-

forenoon, largely in anticipation of the
assembling of the Presidents official coun-
cil for it was regular Cabinet day.
Senator Davis, chairman of the Commit
tee on Foreign Relations, and Senator
Cannon of Utah were with the President
early today. Senator Cannon's visit, how
ever, was largely of a personal character.
He expressed the belief that there would
be formal declaration of war made by
Congress tomorrow and that it would be
put through the Senate within a few min
utes after noon, when the period offered by
the ultimatum of this government would
expire. He said he did not think it would
be proper for this government to take such
action until after the limit had expired.

for the assumption of office at II O. clock OF

IMPORTANT IF TRUE
But the Story Bears the Mark of the
Fakir

Fakir
JACKSONVILLE, Fla, April 22-Ac-
cording to private advices received by the
Tmes-Un and Citizen to night the first
naval battle of the war took place oppo-
site Boynton, about twenty-five miles
south of Palm beach, at 10 o'clock this
morning. George Lyman, reliable man,
and several others, who were fishing in
Lakeworth, which is separated from the
ocean by a narrow strip of land, heard
heavy firing and ran to the beach. They
reported to the railroad agent and post
master at Lantana that a United States
monitor was chasing and firing upon n
Spanish man-of-war or gunboat, convoy
ing coal or transport ship. The Spaniard
replied shot for shot. All the ships were
travelling with a bone in their teeth. The
men say they watched the battlte for an
hour, or until only the smoke from the
tunnels was visible on the southern hori-
zon, in which direction they were travel
ing.
A special to the Times-Union and Citi-
zen says: IAN eyewitness has just ar
rived from Boynton and reports a sup
posed transport vessel bound southwark,
guarded by man-of-war, pursued by a
monitor, keeping up a heavy running fire."
This dispatch was dated at 10 a. m.
Not Worth Much
The Associated Press queried the Jack
sonville correspondent, and the reply came
that they had used every means to verify
the story and sent it for what it is worth.
There is no verification of the story in

FRIENDLY FOREIGNERS
WILL LOOK AFTER SPANISH
INTERESTS
French and Austrian Representatives
Will Divide the Work Between
Them Pending the Conflict

WASHINGTON, April Pas a result
of objections raised by the state depart
ment to the joint action of the French am
bassador and the Austrian minister in
representing Spanish interests in this
country, it is understood that a satisfac-
tory arrangement has been made by
which the ambassador and minister will
divide their duties and will act separately
in looking after Spanish affairs and ir
dealing with the authorities here.
The arrangement was made after a con-
ference between Judge Day and the am
bassador and minister. At the outset the
department took decided grounds against
a Joint representation, believing that II
invited confusion and was quite unusual.
The ambassador and minister thereupon
made known their course, which contepl-
plates distinct action in different locali-
ties. and this was satisfactory to the
United States.
The French consuls or consul generals
will take charge of Spanish interests ut
New Orleans, San Francisco, Philadel-
phia, Boston and Galveston.
At these points the Austrian govern
ment is not represented by consular Of
ficer If any case originates at these
points ana is brought DeIore the state de-
partment then the French ambassador
will take entire charge of the negotiations
so far as Spain's interests are concerned,
without consulting the Austrian minis
ter. On the other hand Austrian consuls
and vice consuls will take charge of Span
ish interests at New York, Chicago and
Pittsburg.
AS to cases in these localities the Aus
trian minister will act independently and
without consulting the French ambassa-
dor.
In smaller cities, where no consuls be-
longing to the regular service of France
or Austria are located, the consular
agents, commercial or honorary will Ike
charge of Spanish interests seniority de-
termining whether a French or an Aus
trian official shall be in charge. The am
bassador and minister will have no joint
functions to perform for Spain in the
sense of conducting diplomatic negotia-
tions, as all diplomatic relations with
Spain are terminated.

DENVER, April ga special to the Re-
publican from Santa Fe, N. NJ. says: The
