FOR AN INHERITANCE TAX.
Measure Providing for 1t Intro.
duced in Texas Legislature.
REPUBLIC SPECIAL.

SPECIAL.
Austin. Tex. March 1.-THE Senate spent
tho entire day discussing its bill prohibiting
the operation Of double-header trains In
Texas. which has occasioned such an active
and vigorous fight throughout the present
session.
The House devoted its day session to the
discussion OF the bill providing for the or
ganization Of an Industrial school for girls,
the bone of contention being the location
of said school, there being some dozen Or
Il bill has been introduced by Representa-
tive Seabury providing for a tax, payable
to the State, of 5 per cent of the market
value of all collateral inheritances, and 4
tax of 1 per cent on the market value of
all direct inheritances of personal property,
to be collected through the County Court
sitting in probate in substantially the
same as claims Of other creditors.
The bill Is prepared with n view of increas-
ing the taxable income of the State and to
relieve corporate interests Of some Of the
burden they are forced to carry, in that
bonds. mortgages and other invisible prop
erty which generally escape taxation.
1t was announced in the lobby Of the
Legislature to-day that Congressman ]. W.
Bailey would be here this week to fight
the passage of the bill revoking the permit
do business In Texas. 1t will be remem-
bered that an investigation was had of the
CONGRESSMAN on this same subject early in
the session, and the announcement that he
is coming here to defeat the passage Of the
bill has occasioned considerable agitation
speculation as to what political effect such
a movement will have. not only on Mr..
Rafley's standing, but on that of his politi-
cal friends here in the Legislature.

REPUBLIC SPEClAL
New York, March 12.-Mrs. Lucy r.. Lam
berton, who was a school teacher in Kan
sas City prior to her marriage to Edward s.
Lamberton, on July q. 1899. found her
dream of marital bliss anything but what
she anticipated. she AYERS. largely owing
to Mr.. Lamberton's aversion to CONVERSE
ton. Her husband was awidower when she
became his wife and had grown-up children
After their marriage. Mrs. Lamberton tes-
titled. he would simply answer her questions
in monosyllables and did not treat her as
if she were his wife.
Mrs. Lamberton placed her case with A
n. Hummel, who brought an action in her
behalf in this borough for a separation,
which was tried before Judge MacLean, who
took the matter under consideration after
hearing both parties.
How did he treat your inquired MI.
Humme of Mrs. Lamberton.
.'He left me entirely alone almost6rom the
date of our marriage" she replied. HE
spoke very little to me and always In mono
syllables. 1 tried to induce him to talk to
ME and talked to him on every subject in
the world, but 1t was of no use. His an
swers would always be a cold. 7 guess So
or something of that kind. I fretted and
worried very much over this treatment, but
said nothing about it. 1 think the longest
speech to me he ever made was one even
