TRAGEDY IN ITALY.
Man Shoots Woman And Is Killed By

Man Shoots Woman And Is Killed By
 0mcers.
 Naples. Sept. 26.-A terrible tragedy took place few evenings since at Cotigliano.
 A man named Loffredo, having been engaged in a law suit with his brother. sister and other relatives who were his partners in business, suddenly drew a revolver and shot at his sister. mor- tally wounding her. The young wo- man began to run downstairs but fell and broke her leg.
 .Loffredo continued to fire his revoi- yer. and wounded his brother-in-law. cousin and brother, With the weapon still in his hand he rushed into the street and fled towards the open coun- try. A communal guard who followed and attempted to seize the infuriated man was mortally wounded in the breast. Thus all trace of Loffredo was lost for the time being.
 Four patrols were immediately or sanized to search for him. One of these, consisting of four guards. beat the country. and at last discovered Loffredo hidden in some bushes. A re- volver shot was heard. and then loud voice warming the guards to keer away. The latter, however, drew their revolvers. but before they could fire one of the men received a fatal bull neers who had hurried up on hearing the reports. the guard fired volley into the bushes.
 Lofrredo was killed, his body being pierced by three bullets. Meanwhile one of his victims had died. and his sister and two of the guards are in a hopeless condition.

TAXATION IN GERMANY.
Burden Is To Be Put Upon Gas And
 Electricity.


 Electricity.
 Berlin, Sept. 26.-It is auth oritatively announced in the 'Lokalanzeiger" that the taxation of gas and electricity is certainly among the schemes which the Secretary of the Treasury will shortly lay before the Reichstag to in- crease the revenue.
 Somewhat cryptic Is the remark that the taxation will not fall on the power but on the light: that the consumers of gas and electricity will pay this tax and not tho producers. Small traders and consumers will be consid- cred the burden falling on them being relatively smaller than that which will be imposed on large consumers.
 Another interesting statement in same paper is that advertising Is to be taxed. whether in the shape of placards. wall and boarding advertise ing, or in newspapers. It is not pro- posed. however, to tax advertisements inserted by seekers of situations, or those of employers seeking servants, nor will small struggling newspapers be drawn into the net. AS far as news papers are concerned, only those will be touched which have 6 large circulation and extensive advertising columns.
 It is further announced that the gov ernment intends to repeal one of the most unpopular taxes in Germany. namely, that on railway tickets. This tax came into force last year, and has raised a. whirlwind of displeasure. It's proceeds did not nearly approach what waa expected.
