ONE LONE SHOT
Sentry at Eflh Anboy Fired al Pedestrisn 1hlDkiug
 He Was a Striker.

Perth Amboy. N. J., Nov 27.- While there was anticipation of trouble when the plant of the Ma tional Fireproofing company att tempted to resume operations to-day after the holiday suspension, the strong guard of troops evidently dis couraged any demonstration on tho part of the strikers even had they been so inclined, and quiet reigned throughout the entire district. The rumors of conflict between the sol- diers and the strikers last night were found to be without foundation. The only incident of the night was stray shot fired by lone sentry, in an effort to halt passerby, who proved not to have been a striker. Further efforts to settle the diner ences between the men and the off, cials of the works will be made to- day.

BERLIN TAXATION.
Over Six Hundred Thousand incomes
Taxed.

Over Six Hundred Thousand incomes
Taxed.
The population of Berlin for the year
1906 was given at 2,O4O,14 and of this
number the Tax Commissioners. after
deducting non-taxable children under
IA years of age, the military, and 9TH
ers by law exempted, found that there
were in round figures LIPS, 900 persons
subject to assessment for income tax.
Nearly half this number, however
was found to have incomes of less than
$214 per year, and therefore, In Ber-
lin, become exempt from income tax.
On the income tax rolls there were
600, 899 names. Of these 315,610 had
incomes of from $214 to 1886 per year.
and 226,678 had incomes Of from $3.50
to STA per year. There were 46.1S1
persons with incomes from STA to
$23SO; 10000 with incomes from $3.50
to $11, 900; 1903 with incomes from $11.-
900 to $23,SOO; 47O with incomes from
$23,SOO to $4,000; 80 with incomes
from $4,000 to $23S.000; 4 with In
comes from $23S. 900 to $4,000; with
incomes from $476,000 to $4,000. and
with incomes over $714,000 per year.
Thus of the LIPS. 900 persons in Ber-
lin who support themselves or them
selves and families only 56,611, or less
than S IA percent had incomes Of STA
or more per year. About 1,O66, 900 had
less than that amount, and more than
half Of these less than $214 per year.
