What Tax is Due?

st. Paul.-Unless the supreme court
overrules the decision of Judge Hallam,
the Duluth & Northern Minnesota and
Minnesota & North Wisconsin railway
companies will have to pay a 4 per
cent gross earnings tax to the state
of Minnesota for the taxes of 1905.
1t is claimed that there is due from
the former road for this tax $3,9O6.66
and from the latter, $3,557.91.
Each of these roads had paid a tax
on the basis Of per cent Of the gross
earnings for the year in question.
In 1873 the legislature passed an
act providing that the st. Paul, Still
water & Taylors Falls Railway COM
pany should pay a gross earnings tax
of 1 per cent for the first three years,
2 per cent for the next seven and per
cent thereafter The two roads above
referred to come under the provisions
of this act and were required to pay a
tax of per cent up to 1901 and per
cent UP to and including 1908.

TWO MORE Victims
OF LARCHnONT DIE
SURVIVORS OF THE LONG ISLAND
SOUND DISASTER ARE
REDUCED TO H.
Identification of Bodies Progresses
Rapidly - Charges Of Cowardice
Against Captain and Crew Are De-
MED by the Company's Officials.

Providence, R. l., Feb. 16.-Another
name was added to the list of victims
of the wreck of the Joy line steamer
Monday night, when James Vann, a
colored waiter, who was one of those
saved, died at the East Side hospital
in this city Friday. His death reduces
the number of survivors Of the 100
persons known to have been on the
Larchmont to II. Samuel L. La Combe
of Manchester, N. H., died from the
effects of exposure Thursday. The
other survivors probably will recover
The identification of the 76 bodies
that have been recovered has so far
progressed that at 10:45 o'clock Fri
day night only eight remained un-
claimed at the morgue here.
Crew of knowIton Released.
The United States authorities at
New London have partly finished their
investigation of the accident by taking
the testimony Of the captain and
crew Of the schooner Harry Knowlton,
which rammed the Inflated steamer
and sent her to destruction. These
men have been released and are now
on their way to their homes. The in
spectors have yet to hear Capt. Nc
Vey's account of the disaster, and it
is expected that officers deposition, as
we'll as that of his quartermaster,
James Stables, will be obtained, as
neither is able to travel to New Lon
DON
The names of Mr.. and Mrs. A. A.
Potter Of Andover, N. Y, were added
ternOon.
! A meeting of the officials of the Joy
line was held Friday, and at it's con-
clusion the company gave out state
ment denying the charges of coward
ice made against Capt. McVey and the
crew of the Larchmcnt in reference to
their behavior by some of the suryiv-
ors.
Another Cargo of Death.
Block Island, R. l., Feb. 15.-One
more grim harvest of % victims of the
Inflated steamer Larchmont, which
the Block Island fisherman gathered
Wednesday,, in nearby waters, was
sent to the mainland Thursday. And
as the death-laden boat left for Provi-
dence, still another victim was
brought in by the fishing schooner
Theresa, making in all "a bodies that
have been recovered here from the
disaster off Watch Hill Monday night.
The body Of Harry Eckels, a resi-
dent of this island, will be buried
here, while that of an unknown negro
waiter, which was brought in just
before dark Thursday, will probably
be sent to the mainland by the steam
er Friday.
Miss GoIub Accuses Officers.
One survivor, Miss Sadie Golub, of
Boston, still remains on the island,
where she is being cared for. Thurs
day afternoon she stated to several
of the newspaper men that when she
begged either Capt. McVey or Purser
Young to take her in their boat, they
pushed her back, and the Nfeboat left
the Larchmont with only six in it,
although it would have held 20 more.
When the steamer went down, she
found herself on piece of wreckage
and remained on it until picked up
ten hours later by the crew of the
fishing schooner Elsie Miss Go1ub
was very emphatic in her charge
against Capt. McVey and the officers
