NEW FOOTBALL RULES.
1t Is Thought Objectionable Features
Have Been Corrected.

The national intercollegiate football
rules committee, after having been in
session in New York all day recently,
announced the adoption of new rules,
which, 1t is believed, will eliminate
brutality from the game. Before be-
coming law the rules must be rati-
fed at meeting of the committee two
weeks hence.
1t was decided that striking with
fists, elbows, knee or deliberately
kicking an opponent shall be punish
able by disqualification for the re-
mainder Of the game and the offending
team shall lose half the distance to its
own goal line. A substitute shall be
allowed in place of the player disqual-
flied.
player suspended twice in one
season shall be suspended from play
ing football for one year from date of
second offense. For unnecessary
roughness, such as striking the run
ner with the ball in the face with
the hand, meeting with the knee. pill
ing up, striking with the locked hands
by linesmen in breaking through, trip
ping, tackling runner when out Of
bounds and all acts of unnecessary
roughness the penalty shall be loss
of Is yards.
For unsportsmanlike conduct, in
GLIDING abusive or insulting language
to opponents or officials, a penalty of
suspension for the remainder of the
day.
1t shall be the duty of all the Of
ficers to penalize for the above Of
lenses.
Players on the side that has pos
session shall not hold the lock or OBJ
struct except with the body, but a
player running with the ball may ward
off an opponent with his hands. Hold
ing or unlawful obstructing includes
(a) graphing the opponent with
hands; (b) placing hands on opponent
to push him away from player. The
definition of holding was finally held
over until the next meeting for fur
Their discussion.
It was agreed that there shall be a
I0lSIcSy IWO uLlplISS anu d lucIudu u
each game. For small games, if nee
essary, there shall be only one UNI
pire.
| On the question of opening game il
was decided that any man back of the
snapper back shall be allowed to make
the forward pass, provided it does moi
extend beyond the line Of scrimmage
He may also pass to man who Is II
the line of scrimmage. He may also
pass to a man who is in the line Of
scrimmage when the ball is put IL
i play.

that one of the center may drop bacl
at least five yards or more, anothel
man to take his place on the rusl

A BANKERS VIEW
Of the Kentucky System of
Taxation.
Editor KENTUCKIAN:-

EQlJOI hENIUChlAN.
At the Kentucky State Bankers
Association held in Louisville, KY,
Oct, 10th, 1906, Hon. John w. Barr,
Jr., delivered an address on TAXA
tion." 1t is a clear and unbiased
discussion of our system of Taxa
ton, as it affects all Financial Insti
buttons of the State, with some
remedial suggestions.
The address has been published in
Phamphlet form and can be gotten
from Isham Bridges, Secretary of
the Association, and should be read
by every voter in the State. l am
sure your readers would be interest
ed in the following extracts from
that address. After showing how
the present system of taxation in
Kentucky works a hardship on the
Banks when compared with other
classes of property, or business, he
said:
San examination of the records
discloses the notifying truth that
with the enormous general prosper
ity of the past few years, the num-
Der of Banks in this city was 80 per
cent. less in 1905 than in 1890. From
a recent visit and investigation the
fact has been ascertained that with
in the same period the number of
financial institutions in Pittsburgh
have more than doubled.
The effect of our diminished bank
ing capital and increased deposits
has been twofold.
(a) The Banks have less ability
to lend to the increasing needs of the
business communities, frequently
resulting in our local merchants and
manufacturers being compelled to
seek necessary funds in other States.
(b) The depositors have less Sc
curity for their deposits from which
tendency to destroy confidence
may arise.
1t is well to remember that the
privileges granted to National Banks
are alike in all States. Their au-
thority to organize is derived from
the Federal Statutes. In the mat
ter of taxes. however, National
Banks are subject to the laws of the
State in which they are located
provided always that taxation is i'm

your cause their cause. BE frank
with them. They are intelligent and
just. Gather for them unbiased
facts on this difficult subject. AS
sure them you desire no advantages,
no special privileges.
Then, and not till them, will laws
be enacted of which neither the
State nor yourselves can justly COM
plain" G.. G. L.

posed on the shares of stock, and
there is no discrimination against
National Banks as compared with
other financial institutions. Com
pare, then, the amount of annual
taxes which would face prospective
organizers of a National Bank with
a capital of a million, and surplus
of like amount, debating whether
to locate in Philadelphia, Baltimore
or Louisville. An examination
would be prohibitory to Louisville's
selection. The approximate re-
suits would be:
In Baltimore, annual taxes. $4,000
In Philadelphia, " ",.. 5000
In Louisville, -" .S35, 900
lin Hopkinsville, where the Banks
are assessed at full value of capital,
surplus and profits, instead of at 70
per cent. as in other cities, the
amount would be $5O,0OO.)
The extent to which such institu-
tions in other States are encouraged
and strengthened is strikingly illus
trated in the Union Trust Company
of Pittsburgh, capitalized at 81 $780,
900 and a surplus of $22, 900, 900, and
with total tax of $4,000, or per
cent. on its capital of 81, 5000 and
nothing on its surplus. In Louis
vile, where this Company located,
the taxes would be approximately
100000 a year. Think of it! Twen-
ty-six times, or $500 per cent.
greater!
Is it then strange that Pennsylva-
MIA is one of the most progressive
and prosperous States in the Union?
1t is not Pennsylvania alone that
has grown prosperous-due in a
large measure to a just and intelli-
gent system of Revenue Laws. In
Maryland an ideal condition was
developed so that the increase of
revenue TO the State was phenome e.
nal and at the same time the onus of
taxation to the individual and prop
erty was correspondingly reduced.
All assessors agree that personal
property is the most elusive and diff
ficult to reach. AS rule they fur
Their agree that human nature is
such that when the system of taxa
ton in effect demands the greater
portion of the annual income, that
the aggregate personal property
listed for taxation steadily diminish
es, with the consequent result of a
decreasing revenue to the Govern
ment.
Maryland, realizing this charac-
teristic of mankind. and having be
fore it the unpleasant condition of
diminishing income derived from
personal property, wisely looked for
the cause of trouble. and having
found it, proceeded to enforce it by
appropriate Revenue Laws. The
results were far beyond their antici-
patton.
A few years ago, in Maryland,
there was a uniform rate on all
property, without regard to its
character, or as to whether 1t was
real or personal. Naturally no diff
fieuIty was found. in subiscilpQ reAl

New York, March 10.-(Speeial)-lt is
very doubtful If the general stock market
undergoes further important shrinkage.
Some few stocks may still be on stills,
but as a whole the list seems to have
settled back far enough. The founda-
tons under the market are again solidi-
flying and the merchant class of traders
are once more loading up with securi-
ties confident in the faith that the trend
of prices will be upward for the next few
months Soon the sap win begin to flow
upward and as winter gives way to spring
warmth new life will naturally be infused
into speculation. That is the routine
chronological action of the stock market.

and not infrequently developes liqhidat-
ing phrases, followed later by improve
ment lasting wen along into the early
summer months In May and June all ma

teous crops and the future looks bright.
The phrase "heauhly reaction as APP

vol1es smile, yet as matter of fact
that is just what it was. The market had
worked into an ''overbought'i state, and
setback was next to inevitable. The
speeialties which had been objects of pool
manipulation and had been unduly sky
rocketed were the most vulnerable and
suffered most seriously on the break.
Conspicuous in this class may be named
Reading, which sloughed 81 points, and
Amalgamated Copper, IS points; Union
Pacific. - points; American Smelling, "A

and on. the curb United Copper q points.
Pennsylvania wore away IL points; New

points for the common and points for

points and Northerp Pacific 26 points.
These latter so-called Hill stocks were in
reality less open to charge of manipua-
ton than almost anything on the list,
but they were bought blindly by Mr..
Hills devoted followers, who were willing
to pay any price for securities bearing
his brand. In tho estimation of many
sober-minded people the entire group Of
Hill stocks are selling for more than they
are worth The gamble is on Mr. Hills
life, and he is an old,man who will one
day wear out and leave no heir big
enough to fill his shoes.
