HOUSE DEADLOCK
is BROKEN
AGREEMENT REACHED ON BILL
FOR CONSTITUTIONAL
AMENDMENTS.

The deadlock in the house committee
on judiciary over the bill for the pro-
posed constitutional amendments was
broken yesterday. Mr.. Roberts had hung
out tenaciously for a wide-open policy
similar to that proposed by the tax COM
mission, and Mr.. Dunn led the faction in
favor of restricting in the constitution
the functions of the legislature as regards
taxation
A half dozen meetings accomplished
nothing. and yesterday Mr.. Dobbins Sc
cured attention to his original PROPOSE
ton for subcommittee to be instructed
to draft a bill. A fight developed as to
the instruction to be given the commit
tee, and the conservative element won.
The result is that last night the subcom-
mittee agreed upon bill TO be reported
to the general committee Monday morn
ms. Except for one or two minor
changes the bill conforms almost. exactly
with the provisions of the bill originally
introduced by Mr.. Dunn In addition to
the bill drafted the subcommittee viii
recommend the Incorporation of clauses
providing for income taxes or the gross
earnings of public service franchise cor
porations; securities and salaries, q

An unknown person was seen to enter
q house early yesterday morning at
Eleventh street and Mary place, and the
TACT was telephoned to police headquar-
terS. The officers were dispatched to the
scene and. after watching both entrances
to the building for about an hour, they
determined to rouse the inmates and find
out something about it.
They were admitted by the woman, and
she grew quite nervous when she was in
formed that someone was in the house
and 10 doubt had by that time secured
all her yaluables. A thorough search was
made, every room was looked into with
out discovering anyone until one of the
officers opened a closet door, and there
was man, who informed them that he
was the master of the house.
He was taken before the lady, who
recognized him as her husband, and then
Informed the officers that she and her
husband had quarreled some time ago
and that he had left and this was the
since his departure. AT first she did not
wish to have anything further to do with
him, but finally she decided that as she
had loved him at one time she might pc

1t appears that he entered the house
through a basement window, and had
