Higher Rate for Broad.


Paris, Aug. 30.-As a direct result of
the completion of the wheat-threshing
operations thruout France all the bak-
ers OF Paris last night raised the price
of bread VI cent pound This action
lets loose the socialistic artillery OF the
penny press this morning, which says
that altho an enormous deficit in the
crop exists. yet the substantial reserve
stores make the raise in price unueces-
sary for the present. Senator Cou,eaux.
representing the department OF yienne,
told the correspondent today that he es-
timated the crop deficit at ketwesn TO-

Secretary Cornu Of the National AS
sociation OF French Millers said, how
ever to the correspondent:
II think the deficit is only half as
large as Senator Couteaux. In my
opinion 1t is unnecessary to raise the
price OF bread, since 1t is true that a
great reserve exists, the Paris grana-
ries alone containing nearly 1000, 900 bu-
shells OF wheat and the rest OF the
country about 10000. 900 bushels Thus.

Feud to Follow SUSPENSION.

Jackson. Miss. Aug. 3O.-The suspen-
sion of State Treasurer j. R. Showers by
Governor Longino has caused much
comment here. and threatens to result
in not only political feud between the
two men, but long contest in the
courts. Aug. 10. as required by law, the
governor investigated the treasury and
found that the amount on hand was
100000 less than the books showed it
should be. The treasurer said the mat
ter would be Strengthened out when his
cashier returned from his vacation, and
Governor Longino gave him five days
time to right the error.
Another count was then made. The
governor was unable to find out where
the missing money was, as Treasurer
Showers declined to state, in spite of the
fact that the law compels all state
funds to be kept in the vaults. AS he
continued to refuse to divulge the names
of the banks which had the money.
Showers has been suspended by the gov
ernor who named G.. w. Carlisle acting
treasurer. Showers will demand rein
statement in the courts.

Haytien Merchant Wants Redress.

Washington, Aug. so.-Mr. Antonio
Kouri, a Haytien merchant, claiming to
have been naturalized here. called at the
state department yesterday in company
with N. A. Sibley, Haytien attorney,
to induce the department to take steps
to secure justice for the murder of his
brother, Habid Kouri, also naturalzed
American citizen, and merchant of
Puerto Principe and New York. 1t was
stated that the murderer of Kouri. one
Nicola Nadir, was likely to escape trial
entirely. The crime was committed last
October. when Nadir was arrested. He
has been in confinement since, but has
been allowed a measure of liberty at
times which the complainant alleges is
beyond the limit of propriety and safe
ty. The case was made the basis of a
number of affidavits. which Acting So
licitor c. Van Dyne will take under con-
sideration, and it is probable that he will
communicate with United States Min
lister Powell and cause him to do what is
necessary to prevent miscarriage Of
justice.

NO ADAM NOR EVE.
Science Association at Denver Decides
They Never Existed,

They Never Existed.
Denver. Aug 30.-The American
Association for the advancement of
Science decided that there never was
either an Adam or an Eve. Prof. w. j.
Gee, the Chesterfieldan ethnologist, who
knows all about the men who have in
habited the earth. was down on the
program to read an innocent looking
paper entitled Current Questions in
Anthropology." He said that for CEN
turies students had adhered to the sup
position that mankind had sprung from
common parentage Modern research
had shattered this theory. 1t must be
apparent that the negro, the Mongol-
Ian, the Malay and the Caucasian
could not have descended from the
same pair. Talk of Adam and Eve
having set up housekeeping in the
Garden of Eden was, in the opinion of
the professor, absurd. There must
have been several such couples.
Professor McGee continued along
these lines for thirty minutes. and then
the supporters of the common parent
age idea got the floor. Professor Geo.
Dorsey, who occupied front seat at
all gatherings of anthropologists, being
the curator of the anthropological sec
ton of the Field Museum at Chicago.
defended Adam and Eve. and gave ex-
haustive data to make his argument
effective.
He was ably seconded by Prof. Frank
Russell. of Harvard. but the rest of the
members went over to MCGEE. and it
was soon apparent that the latter had
won the day. and the story OF Eden
and Its occupants would have to be
placed on the shelf with William Tell.

ephemeral personages.

Duplicate Tax Invalid.

Ter of the treasury has rendered the
question of a duplicate tax on bank di-
vidends. In this case certain bank
owned stock in and received dividends
from several other banks. These banks
had paid the tax on the dividends de-
clared by them. and the question in
volved is whether the bank should be
required to pay tax on that part of its
income which is received in dividends
from other banks. The comptroller
holds that 1t was not the intention of
congress to assess duplicate tax upon
the same identical income of profits.
