TAWNEY AND PAINE ACTIVE
Both Urgently Press Plans of Reciprocity
with Cuba.
APPEAL TO PRESIDENT AND CABINET
Indications Are That House Will Have
TO Choose between Rebate and
Twenty PEE Cent Duty
Propositions.

WASHINGTON, March ~5.-Speaker Hen
derson and Mr.. Cannon Of Illinois called at
the White House today and discussed with
the president the subject Of Cuban reel
procity and sentiment thereon in the house.
Active canvassing continued among re-
publican members today preliminary to the
third caucus or Cuban reciprocity to be
held tomorrow night. The most positive
claims we're mad by those opposed to Rep
resentative Payne's 20 per cent reciprocity
plan hat there was a clear majority
against It.
Mr.. Payne and his associates did not con-
oede this, however, and expressed the be-
lief that a concession to Cuba ultimately
would be granted. II was said in this con
nection that Speaker Henderson is now ia
vorsble to the position taken by the ma
jority on the ways and means committee
and that this would exert, much influence
in shaping the final outcome.
Tawney Presses his Plea.
During the day several members Of tpe
cabinet we're called 90 by Messrs. rawney
of the ways and means committee, who has
proposed the rebate plan a substitute for
Chairman Payne's 20 per cent reciprocity
plan, and Morris Of Minnesota, who also
has proposed a plan differing from that Of
Mr.. Payne.
AS an outcome Of these calls 1t was as
serted hat three members OF the cabinet,
namely Postmaster General Payne. secre-
tary shaw and Secretary Wilson, were
hopeful Of seeing a solution Of the problem
which would not sndanger any American
industry. This was construed in some
quarters to show a division In the cabinet

the situation that the attitude OF the cab
met members did not warrant any such
construction.
Later in the day Representative Tawney
called at the White, House and had a con.

with the president. At its conclusion Mr.,
Tawney Joined several of his associates who
are opposed to the Payne resolution.

COMBINE OF RAILWAY SYSTEMS
Southern Lines May Be Under One
Management.

A merger of all Southern railroads
is the talk in financial circles. In
spite of denials, the rumor keeps go
Ing that consolidation of the roads of
the South and Southwest into a great
system is under way. The roads and
their mileage put down as parts of the
combination are as follows:
Southern Railway, 6,742 miles
Louisville and Nashville, 1924
miles. Atlantic Coast Line, which
recently secured the Plant System,
3, $50 miles
Illinois Central, 1926 miles.
st. Louis and San Francisco, 3,37G
miles
Chicago and Eastern Illinois, 138
miles.
Evansville and Terre Haute, which
is controlled by the Eastern Illinois,
32J miles.
The conclusion as to the forming Of
the merger is based upon unusual
stock movement and recent confer
ences between the presidents of Sou.
thern and Southwestern roads. The
merger, it is said, is intended to GOV.
er practically all the territory south of
the OHIO river TO the Gulf.

LOOKING AFTER TAX DODGERS.
Who Forgot to Include Notes In
Their Returns

The thorough manner in which the
Board of City Assessors, Messrs. ]. @,
Roney, Fl. E. Allen and ]. 7. Stallings,
are looking after property returns will
result in very large increase of prop
erty valuations here. Having gone
over the list OF real estate and passing
upon valuations, the assessors are now
looking after mortgage notes and
property of other kinds which the own
ers carelessly forgot to include in their
tax returns. But it happens that most
of these notes and mortgages are on
record at the courthouse and already
the Board of Assessors, IN looking
over the mortgage record books, have
discovered some ten thousand dollars
worth of these valuable notes and will
add them on to the returns made by
property owners that they may be
taxed. The assessors have worked
diligently and are fast completing their
labors.

Gold Brick swindler Gets Out of Peni-

Times Recorder readers who saw the

effect that Gov. Aycock, of North Caro-

the occurrence here several years ago
wherein a citizen was feeced of S4, 500

brick seller had an 'Indian" partner
who worked the. game with him, and as
the fellow just let out Of the pen by
