REPORT ON SUBMARINES

The same committee reported on its
conference with Norman G. johnson in
regard to the matter of submarines
Tor defense. The committee state that
Mr.. johnson presented strong argu-
ments in favor of the Holland Sub
marine Company's type of boat for
harbor and coast defense. These were:
Their effectiveness against battleships
as shown by the French maneuvers nm
der Admiral Fournier; the short time
IN which they can be built and equip
ped; their great advantage through
mobility over fixed defenses; their mod
crate cost, (say 100000 each); the
small crew necessary. The committee
go on to say that the "Chamber is
sparing no effort to secure ADEQUATE
defenses for this Territory, but neces-
sarily in entire harmony and eoopera-
tlon with the military and naval au-
thorltles, and while the submarine has
no doubt passed the experimental stage
and seems to be particularly adapted
to our requirements for coast and har-
Dor defense, we consider this a tech
meal subject pertaining to the navy
offlcials, no doubt having their full con-
slderation, and upon which it would
be as impolitic for us as commercial
body to pass as it would be for us
to attempt to determine what particu-
lar calibers of guns are needed for
our defenses. We therefore recommend
that this Chamber take no action in |
this matter unless it becomes evident |
that our cooperation is needed either |
to further the efforts of the Navy De-
partment to secure appropriations for
submarines for these waters, or to as
sist in any possible movement for the
same purpose by the commercial bodies

SENSATION SPRUNG IN BAILEY HEARING
Bailey Rises In Court to Give Lie to Intimation Con-
 cerning Him,

AUSTIN, Tex. Feb. S--A dramatic scene was enacted in the Bailey in yestigation yesterday afternoon shor,- ly after the legislative committee re sumed consideration of the charges against the senator.
 F. Nemitz. of Houston, was upon the stand when Representative Cooke, who is prosceutiC- the charges against Bailey. asked him n Col, Cow. art, of DaliaG, went to New York while 1e was there to see Bailey, ostensibly to have his throat treated, but really to attend to business for the Kirby Lumber company.
 Bailey arose and said, Any one who says Cowart went to New York to see me is a liar"
 The witness understood that Bailey meant him and he arose and said cm' phaticaliy that he would allow no man to call him liar.
 Bailey started for the witness, whO seemed ready to meet him.
 Deputy Sherik White stopped Bail ey and trouble WIS averted. The senator then apologized 10 the committee and asserted that he was so irritated during the past few weeks | 1t was hard to keep rom denourcins what he knew to be lies. | Representative Cooke retorted that Bailey had legal advisers who wert able to take care of nis interests.
 An amazing feature of the investtga ton is the disclosure that MT. Bailel | Is very rich man, having become so during the past six years. The story printed in the St. Louis Post Dispatch several weeks ago that MT Bailey Is now a millionaire is appar ently confirmed.

 The younger Moreno boy, who is Il years old, was the first to take the stand. and on account of the wound in his leg he was unable to walk. The bullet. which entered the boys leg, passed through the calf without com ing in contact with the bone.
 He testified that he. with his broth ger Angelito aI.d arotbel boy. were playing on the railroad track south of East Lake park. when Carrillo came along and joined in the sport. They were throwing pieces of coal which they picked up along the track at ob- iects along the road.
 This sport became too tame for the Carrillo lad and he being the older and largest in the crowd began to dictate 10 the other boys what they should do. They refused to mind him and in a fit of rage he blazed away at the Moreno iad with his rifle. The first shot went wide of it's mark. but he reloaded the 22-caliber rife and shot al him again. striking the boy in the leg. The child fell in his tracks, He was taken home and medical at tentiop siYen him.

FRANCE WILL ADJUST
 TAXATION SYSTEM
Bill Is Drawn Along the Lines of Income Tax For This
 Purpose,

PARIS, Feb. S.-The governments in the Chamber of Deputies today, created a stir when made public this afternoon after the closing of the Bourse. If enacted to law it will constitute a complete reajtustment of the financial system. old Door are to be replaced by Q system based upon incomes. Day laborers are prac- tically exempted. Tax upon incomes of over Sl.OO0 a year are made pro '. gressive up to four per cent of total. Even government rents, excepting those held abroad. only nominally es- cape, coupons exempt but the reve- nue therefrom being taxed when the | total income of the holder exceeds the minimum laid down French saw ings are largely invested in rents. The burdens placed upon foreign se- curities. both private and government | tai. constitutes a particularly heavy blow to Russian securities. of which it is estimated from eight to ten mill | lions are held in France. This new income tax measure is one of the rad ical reforms to which the Clemenceau ministry committed itself upon as-
 suming office. While it is received with unbSunded joy by the Socialists, as the proper shifting of the burden
 of taxation to the shoulders of the idle rich, it is sure to encounter lH> tense opposition from the more mod
 crate Republicans, as we'll as from ] the conservative parties.
