Special to The Globe.
DULUTH, Feb. ia somewhat un-
usual fracas is reported from Chisholm,
a new town in the northern part of the
county, near Hibbing. There is quite an
Austrian settlement there and one day
last week one of the families invited a
large number of their friends to cele-
brate a christening. During the festivi-
ties that followed, two little daughters
of Matt Kosnick, who were dancing
around the room, accidentally ran against
Stanislaus Skull, an old vioIinist. 1t
Jared his bow arm and the discordant
note that followed SO ruff1ed his feelings
that he started to punish the children.
Their mother interfered and received
for her pains a blow on top Of the head
by the violin, which shattered the In
strument. Kosnick himself then tried to
protect his wife, when the enraged vio-
linist pulled a knife and stabbed him In
the abdomen. Kosnick was badly in
jured and it was at first feared that he
would die, but he is now reported con-
valescent. Skult was arrested.

DEMOCRATS AGREE ON PROGRAMME

Both sides of the house, from party
etandpoints, yesterday introduced bills
calculated TO straighten out the tangle in
which the legislature has become en-
meshed by its preliminary wreStlingS
win the commissions proposed tax code
Representative Pennington, Of Dakota
county, the house leader of the Demo-
Gratis, is the father Of the set o. bills
agreed upon by the Democrats in caucus,
and w. w. Dunn, of st. Paul. is the
author of the scheme to which the ma
Jority is expected to rally. Both provide
Tor franchise, real, personal and income
taxes and constitutional amendments, but
the Dunn bill proposes q complete sub
sutute set of amendments for those Of
fered by the commission.
Mr.. Pennington's bill for a constitution
al amendment, is directed at section 8, Of
the state paper, which the tax commls-
sion says, is to be blamed for all the
evils OF taxation, as suffered in Mime
sofa. The amendment provides for the
taxation of all franchises whether grant
ed by the state or other political suu-
divisions, and in a general way for an
income tax. The matter of rates and the
machinery Of the tax is removed from
the constitution and the question of ex-
eDptions is left entirely to the legis-
lature. This is in conformity with the
Ideas Of the tax reformerS who advocate
the theory that only the fundamental
principles of a tax law should be en-
compassed by the ironclad constitution.
GENERAL LAWS TO
BE AMENDED.
With his bill for a cons titutional amend
ment, Mr.. Pennington sent up bill
amending the general laws of 1894 and
providing that the assessment of COM
panieS and corporations shall be based
on the money value of their capital stock
and bonded Indebtedness, less the amount
Of their real and personal property. The
Dunn bill is a substitute for the amend
ments offered by the commission entire
The most striking difference between the
Dunn afru Pennington bills in their gem
eral trend lies in the fact tat the PEN
nDgton bill leaves all the power Of ad-
ministration with the legislature and is
so framed that laws enacted under 1t
could be changed, if unsatisfactory, with
out another wrestle with the constitution
The Dunn bill makes an arbitrary aAmin-
Istfation by fastening the machinery of
MS proposed law in the constitution
The particular feature radically different
from the tax commissions plan is the
proposed graduated tax of incomes
The bills introduced by Mr. Pennington
IN the house, and Senator Baldwin, in
the senate, are the first step in a COM
plete programme.
1t is claimed by the members who
nave agreed upon this programme that
the Two bills introduced YESTERDAY will
with the addition of one other bin to
pc introduced early Thursday morning,
be complete solution of the present tax
muddle and afford all the relief that is

and Thursday was buried quietly by
the Actors Fund of America. She
died in the home for incurables. In
private life she was Mrs Charles Tin

from Fordham hospital to a cottage
on City Island. Several days later she
was found suffering from exposure
and hunger. Then the Actors Fund
interviewed and cared for her. The
marriage of Miss Gray with Tinguay
estranged her from her family in Bos

abandoned Uruguay. She chung to her

and actors who are rehearsing In New

fame hinged solely on EAST Lynne"
and for thirty years she depicted the
torments Of the misguided Lady Isabel
