EXTRA SESSION.
Assemblyman MiIice Says the Leg
isIature VIII Reconvene.

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 23.-The Eek
press to-day says: A member of the
Legislature has been found who will
the much discussed written pledge for
caucus in the event of an extra ses-
sion, but also that he has signed such
a document, and has returned it to the
promoters of the extra session idea,
whoever they may be. The member
in question is Captain A. S. Milice, and
he represents the Riverside County
District in the Assembly.
Captain Milice is in the city on a
short visit He arrived yesterday. Il
not only believe it, but know positive
ly that an extra session of the LegiS-
lature will be called" said Captain
Milice, when seen by the Express re-
porter. 1.-The ostensible reason for re-
convening the two houses will be to
amend the Vrooman act, as outlined a
few days ago by the Express" The
law needs to be tfnkered up, as in its
present shape not city or town in the
State can secure street improvements
under it's terms.
1.-TWO caucus calls We're sent to me to
sign. The first one I returned without
my approval and gave my reasons for
not attaching my name. The second
one l signed"
Captain Milice said that the call for
the extra session would be out about
October 1st, and the two houses would
convene about November LIST.

doubts of Sponogle's guilt, it was next
case was dismissed.
The Governor states in his report
that Sponogle is accused by numerous
other women patients of unprofessional
conduct.
The Governor concludes his report
by saying: "All of the foregoing is
presented to me as susceptible of proof.
If in your judgment you think it wise
to put the State to the expense of
bringing the witnesses here for that
purpose, it shall be done But the evil
dence at hand demands the immediate
dismissal of DR.. Sponogle. If, under
the circumstances, you think removal
of the other two physicians would be
inexpedient at the present. time, that
matter may go over for future con-
sideration.
'And in the order of removal which
may subsequently be entered in regard
to Drs. Stocking and Christal, / would
suggest that you do them the justice
to recite that they are not dismissed
on the ground that they are lacking in
integrity or morality, but because this
iniquity arose whilst they were assist
ant phycisians of the institution and
by the Board of Managers held respon-
sible on account of their lack of in
formation in reference to the sad con-
dition of this unfortunate woman.

Dr. J. H. Crane of Santa Ana, Cal,
a physician of six years experience in
Eastern insane asylums, was appointed
to succeed Sponogle as medical direc-
tor of the Agnews Asylum.

and they returned. All landed safe on

to-day for tour of the Northern States
to invite the Governors and other
prominent men to meet President Nc
Kinley here at the National Reunion
of the Blue and Gray, October 10th to
18th. The reunion is meeting hearty
response from the South, and is the
outcome of the Presidents Atlanta

from prominent Southerners showing
their qualification at the Presidents
policy and accepting invitations to the
reunion, and personally show their ap-
probation of his efforts to more firmly
cement the North and South.

estimated, and it mays happen that
Congress will be asked to Increase the
present tax of 21a cents on the dollar on
all patent medicines, perfumes and
cosmetics. 1t has become apparent to
the revenue officials that if any ade-
quate increase in the revenues is to be
realized It must come from the further
imposition of stamp taxes. Just where
to impose these taxes is the question
now bothering those in charge. For sew
eral weeks data have been quietly gath
cred and recommendations to the Sec
retary are being formulated. The fol-
lowing are some of the suggestions that
find favor among the revenue officials:
The imposition of stamp tax on all
patent protected articles. the theory be-
ing that the value of the article is
greatly enhanced by the protection of
the patent laws of the United States,
and that, as war measure purely, the
Government would be justified in de-
manding a fractional part of the profits
secured through the establishment of a
monopoly by virtue of the patent laws.
1t is also proposed to place a stamp
tax on all slot machines in which there
is any element of chance. 1t has been
found that the manufacture of these
machines has attained gigantic pro-
portions. In each of them the percent
age of profit to the proprietor is enor-
nous, and the tax would not strike
those machines which dispense with
chewing gum, for in them there is no
element of chance, and the gum already
pays Government tax. Another
proposition that has met with favor at
the hands of the Treasury department
is one to put stamp tax on all fire
arms except such as are used for Ma
tional, State or municipal purposes.
This would, in all probability, be a
pretty stiff tax, and would yield a large
revenue, for the sale of firearms in the
United States reaches into the hun
dreds of thousands of dollars annually.
A similar tax, only less burdenSome, is
suggested in connection with fireworks.
It will thus be seen that the depart
ment has gone into a field in search of
revenue that was discarded by Con-
gr,ess when the war revenue bill was up
for consideration. The members of the
Senate Finance Committee were favor
ably impressed with the suggestion
when it was made to them, but it was
abandoned because it was believed that
sufficient revenues would be secured
without further increasing the burdens
of taxation. Now the expenditures of
the Government have been increased,
and there is no hope of an increase in
receipts. Items that were originally
booked for special war taxes will again
be considered. and the scope of the war
revenue law enlarged SO as materially
to assist the treasury, and, if possible,
nrsaraf1t another issue of bonds
