American goods continue to find pur-

occasional imposition of an embargo will
have their good effect in stimulating Amer
lean shippers and manufacturers to send
abroad only goods which will stand the
severest tests. Having captured the mar

TURNER ON EMIGRATION.
Says the Negro Should Be Sent to
 Africa,

Atlanta, Ga, Aug. 27.-IBishop Tur- ner of the African Methodist Church said in an interview today with regard to the best manner of preventing the crime of assaulting among negroes:
 T am as much convinced as ever that African emigration would be best for the negro and best fer the white man. There is an irresistible conflict between white and black that nothing but separation can reconcile and put an end to.
 Our children are generated and nurtured under malignant and mis- anthropic excitement that will wreck this country and make our civilization a hiss ani a by-word. And if 1t is a a fact that the negro will not let white women alone. then white men owe 1t to their manhood and honor to get rid of him; and if they will open up & highway to Africa millions of the. black race will go. Rather than shed so much blood and possibly some innocent blood, you had better enact laws to brand these fools and scoundrels and crop their ears and banish them to Africa. If the country will turn over all these criminals that they are burning. hanging and shoot ing to me and brand their cheeks and carry them to Africa, I will establish country like Australia which was founded and built up by English cut throats and penal convicts."

CONGRESS OF CATHOLICS.
Representative Priests of the Church
 in America Meet in Tennessee.

Chattanooga, Tenn. Aug. 27-A spe- cial to The Times from Winchester, Tenn, says: Rt. Rev. Thomas Sebas- tian Byrne, Bishop of Nashville, con- vened at the Paulist Monastery here today, a congress of missionaries to non Catholics, which includes repre- sentative priests of the Roman Cath oiic Church from all parts of America.
 This is the first general conference growing out of the non Catholic mis- sion work, and is a great step towards the national organization of the move ment. Rev. w. s. Kress of Cleveland, O.. was appointed Secretary, Rev. Thomas F. Cusack of New York gave the results of diocesan mission bands. Bishop E. P. Allen of Mobile, Ala, in discussion outlined the necessity of ed- ucating English speaking missionaries for the new territories of the United States. This encouraged general ex- pression in favor of a national train ing school for Roman Catholic mission aries, which may be a practical out come of the congress.
 Rev. Walter. Elliott of Washington, D. C., outlined the requisites of mis- sionary education. Discussion was led Dr. William Stang of Providence,

DIsPENsARIEs NOT TAXABLE.
This Plea Set Forth by Attorney F.
 Fl. Mackay.

Washington, Aug. 27.-Franklin H. Mackay, attorney for South Carolina Tn the claims for rebate of wholesale and retail liquor licenses paid by the South Carolina dispensary, today filed an additional brief with Mir. Yerkes the Commissioner of Internal Revenue.
 The position taken by Mfr. Mackay Is that independently of the constitution al question in the case, the revenue laws of the United States have no ap- plication whatever to the dispensaries. The dispensary system. 1t is claimed. Is a State institution, and being such. is not taxable under the revenue law {. Reference is made to the section of the revenue law under which retail Iiquor dealers are taxable, and Mir. Mackay contends that the Supreme Court has held that the word person" mentioned in the law. does not include a State. The dispensaries, he holds. are State institutions, and he says the taxes, If payable at all, are payable by the State, which, he contends, is not liable to pay such tax.
 Mir. Mackay further insists that even if Congress had intended to include a State within the provisions of the reve- nue law, such intention would have been futile, because ever since the days of Chief Justice Marshall 1t has been held by the Supreme Court in repeat ing decisions that the Federal Govern ment has no more power to tax State institution than the State has to tax an institution of the Federal Govern ment.

CUSTER STILL SCOUTING.
Believed, However, the Flow Will Be
 Stopped Today.

Beaumont. Tex. Aug. 27-The Palestine Beaumont oil well is still spouting a stream of petroleum as high as the top of the seventy-foot deck and it has added the life of another man to Its achieve ments of destruction, making total of three fatalities. James Smith and John McDaniel were drowned in oil last night, but their fate was unheeded by Peter Gal lagher and two companions about ? O clcck this morning. Gallagher went to his death in the fatal spray of gas and oil. while his two companions were barely rescued alive.
 Just what prompted them to go into the spray is not known, though it is thought they were attempting to shut the well off Some one saw the men go into the spray of oil and gas and gave the alarm Gallaghers companions were dragged out and were finally restored to consciousness. F. w. Chase, an expert sub-mari diver. came in from Calves ton this morning, bringing diving suit with him. He came in answer to tele- gram from the owners of the well. He found no difficulty in staying in the spray while encased in his diving suit, but he had to work slowly.
 At o'clock this evening the pipe had been raised sufficIe ntly to permit the un- screwing of a joint. This will be done early in the morning and 1t is believed that the well will then be closed without difficulty.

TO TAX OIL PRODUCERS.
Developers Confronted with a seri-
 ous Proposition.

Austin, Texas, Aug. 27.-The oil de- velopers of Texas are confronted with rather serious proposition at present, in that the Texas Legislature shows a marked. disposition to tax the devel- opers of oil ? per cent. on their gross earnings.
 A large delegation of oil magnates from Beaumont was before the House Committee today to fight the tax. but with Title success, as the Committee is almost unanimous in fixing the 3 per cent. tax and the Legislature, 1t is said. will certainly levy it if the op- portunity is offered. It is claimed by the oil people that this will prove a se- rious backset to the oil developing in- dustry.
 Rather a startling statement was made by one of the committee from Beaumont, that 1t was not an assured fact by any means that the Beaumont oil fields were lasting, and for that reason t,:e output should not be taxed until further developed.

coLLERAN IS IMPLICATED.
Alleged That He Got Share of the
 Spells.

Chicago, Aug. 27.-The connection Of Sergeant Cramer, Detective Tracey and Lieutenant Joyce with the bogus ex- pense account which has enveloped in a scandal the Detective Bureau and it's Chief. Captain Colleran. was told today by Chief of Police oiNeil. who took the stand during the session of the Civil Service Commission. sitting as the trial board to investigate the mat ter. The Announcement created sem sation, particularly so when Chief OINeill told of alleged confessions of his subordinates which they had in the main denied on the stand or saved themselves from repeating on the grounds of self-incrimination. The Chief also told how Captain Colleran and Lieutenant Joyce aS he alleges, re- ceived their share of the spells.
 Counsel for Joyce stated that he was tlying to show that manipulation of expense vouchers was a common nrac-
