spondence with General Lee and for IN

ering the Patterson-C -Carmack contest from

out division of the joint resolution to au-
thorize the president, in his discretion, to

LONDON, April 2l.-Ambassador Hay
said to the New York World correspon-
dent: II expect Minister Woodford when
he leaves Madrid will come through here
and make his way to Washington as
quickly as possible. He has believed in
the possibility of peace up to the very last
moment and never despaired of being able
to accommodate the difference between
the United States and Spain without war.

Fighting for Honor

BERLIN, April 21.-The German press
continues to blame America. The Koln-
ische Zeitung declares that the American
plea of humanity is put out of court by the
declaration of war. 1t believes "that a con-
fiict between the United States and Spain
will probably involve greater bloodshed
than has been caused by the Cuban rebel
lion."
1t says: ITO expel Satan by Beelzebub
can hardly be described as result of gen.
uine philanthropy. But II the other pow
ers witness the struggle with apathy. sure-
ly disnterested power like Germany
has no reason to take sides in the con.
flict."

IN COMMITTEE
The War Measure Is to Be Reported
Today

| WASHINGTON, April N.-The Republi-
| can members of the Ways and Means
Committee expected to complete the war
revenue measure and have it ready for
| submission to the full committee tomor-
row. Saturday at the very latest. The
| proposition to place ten cents tax on tea
and three cents on coffee has met consider
able opposition. and various suggestions
have been made as to subjects for taxa
ton in lieu of tea and coffee. Among them
is proposition to place so cents tax per
barrel on petroleum, but it now seems
probable that it will be abandoned. There
is also proposition to add mineral waters,
wines, etc. The proposition which now
meets with more favor is 10 :aX railroad
tickets and sleepingcar tickets for 10
cents for each trip of over one hundred
miles, 1t is estimated between 500, ,000. 800
and So, 900, 900 could be raised from this
source. Ri.
Although no decision was reached at the
session this afternoon, it appeared prob
able, after the Republican conference
broke up, that sufficient revenue can be
raised without resorting to a tax on tea.
coffee, petroleum or a stamp tax on rail-
road tickets. 1t is likely that tax will be
placed upon mineral waters, ginger ale
etc, and upon various other articles, like
chewing gum.
