HOUSE BILL AT THIS SESSION
Washington. Jan. 6 CSpeciaD-The extreme
deIiberation with which the Senate Committee
on Finance is considering the House Tax Reduc
tion bill raises some serious doubt to the
passage Of that measure at this session. The

no progress has been made with IL further than

OF the Treasury's original recommendations Of
lightened taxes were based. Fault is found with
the House bill both for what il does and what
it fails TO do AS temporary expedient. II is
argued, the House measure cuts deeper into the
Governments surplus income than cautious book
keeping policy warrants Yet as a scheme Of re-
lief from burdens imposed to meet an emergency

is drawn on lines which will fail 10 restore a

will involve another cut in internal taxes with

as the Army Reorganization Shipping Subsidy
and Nicaragua Canal bills is determined, II Will

is prudent now. and there is little expectation
that the Senate Finance Committee Will report

Scranton. Pa. March 23.-Pfesident
John Mitchell of the United Mine
Workers, received answers from a
number of the presidents OF the coal
carrying companies to the communi.
cations sent out Tuesday evening, al.
ter his meeting with the three dis
triet presidents. The nature OF the
messages from the operators was not
known Friday. as all Of the nine
workers officials refused to give out
any information ON the matter
II. II. Siveily secretary OF seVerat
mining companies, said about the pos
sibility of strike:
MY personal opinion is that there
will be no strike. do not think there
Is any likelihood of the operators
agreeing to attend a conference with

only awaiting 3 time when they can

position.
'tThe men now receive excellent
wages and a strike with arbitration
as the principal grievance advocated
would be frowned upon by the general
public. The chances of strikes sue
cess are initiated against by the fact
that the warm weather is now set
ting in and the lessened demand for
coal together with the present con
ditions of affairs.

All this talk about recognition
strikes me as mighty peculiar, any
way. AS long as the operators are
granting our demands and continue
to pay the increase granted last fall
they are giving the union all the rec
ognition we strikers want. The senti-
ment among the miners. as | said, is

at the Broadway theater, was the
target at which he shot and Aie1an.

The accounts of the affair vary 70

LefTingweIl and Miss Buckley's aunt,
were sitting in a booth, when Moul-
ton appeared before them and began
to abuse the party and to use pro-
fame language, his insults being di-
rected largely toward the actress. His
words were resented and he whipped
out a 32-calibre revolver and fired
Ave shots.
Guests and walters ran toward
Moulton, women screamed and the
manager and the detective of the no,
tel soon overpowered the infuriated
man The first shot fired by Moulton
penetrated the sleeve of Mr. Letting
wells coat. just grazing his left fore
arm. The skin was not broken. The
second shot passed along the front
of Mr.. DingwelPs vest, cutting the
cloth for an inch or two. The third
shot struck Dingwell in the fleshy
part of the back, on the left side, as
he rose from his chair. The fourth
shot passed through Miss Buekley's
dress, being DETECTED from its intend
ed course by a blow from Mr.. LET
| fngwell in an effort to knock the re-
volyer from the would-be assassin s
hand. The last shot went wild.
While waiting to be arraigned in
the West Side court he stated that
he had partaken freely of drugs, sup
plies of morphine having been found
on him, and gave this as an excuse
for his conduct. After leaving the

and said "Stop that" A policeman
