Ing With Taft's
Ideas.

Washington, June 1g.-Senator-
Bailey, speaking for himself and mos,
OF the Democratic and Republican in
come tax advocates, announced at the
opening of the Senate session this
morning that he would consent to
postponing disposal of the income tax
question until after the tariff sched-
ules have been disposed of. IL became
apparent at once that postponement
would be made but there was some
debate before this conclusion was
reached.
Bailey sought an assurance that no
motion would be made 10 send the
amendment to committee; Hepburn
resisted. saying he would agree to no
proposition favoring the income tax
or tax on corporations or ''any sub
tcrfuge' as a means of paying the ex-
penses of the government.
Aldrich then announced that he had
asked the attorney general to prepare
an amendment to the constitution In
keeping with the ideas of the presi-
dent and that the amendment would
be considered in this concerted form
before being taken up regularly.
Bailey said he understood that bills
for revenue should originate in the
House instead of at the White House.
and Aldrich said that 1t was not a
matter of revenue but of working to
the oest advantage The amendnlent
was then allowed to go over.

ously, this morning when a machine

OF Miss Elsie Sigel. granddaughter OF
General Franz Sigel. whose body was
found last night, crowded into a trunk
in the room of Chinaman, after the
girl had been strangled with a cur
tain cord, appears to be the most
strange case in years.
one of the odd phases is the fail
ure of the girls father, Paul sigel
to identify the body of his daughter
while the mother identified it by
pieces of jewelry. A number of per-
sons have been found who declare
that Miss Sigel has been a friend to
the Chinaman, William L. Leon, in
whose room the body was found.
Notwithstanding the identifications
stated, Paul Sigel has gone to Wash
ington to bring Elsie home" Leon,
who was also known by other Chi
nese names. has not been found
Neither has Chung Sin. who occupied
a room adjoining the one in which
the body was found. Both rooms are
on the fourth floor of 7S2 Eighth
avenue, over a Chinese restaurant.
1t is reported that ootn Leon and
Sin are on their way to Vancouver
by way of Panama and all boats are
being watched
Miss Sigel had been engaged in
missionary work among the Chinese.
She was twenty years old. Florence
Todd, another missionary worker,
who Identified the body, told the po-
lice that Elsie and Leon were thrown
much together and that Leon was
greatly enamored of the girl He was

The one-act farce comedy" "Breacf

the Civic league in the court house
last Friday night to a large audi
ence. The performance was well
rendered and enjoyed by all who at
tended. The leading characters were
we'll suited to their parts, which OF
course added much to the entertain
ment. Miss Lila Hamet as Miss
Araminta Glover top accused Mr. q
W Stoll as Hon j Barrymore d.
Browne Smythe, of flirting with
her and otherwise damaging her
dignity and sued for the small sum
of $1,000. MIR P H Stoll As

Miss Lorena Ross as Mrs Cynthia
Ann Basby, Mr. F " Fairy as J
Cook Busby, Miss Vivian Wheeler
as Mary Anderson Busby and Mr.
Tom McCutchen as Hezakiah Clo'
vertop presented a rather strong
case (for the defendant). Mr. Clifton
Kinds as Givemftz, Esq, also
strongly upheld his side of the case
with the evidence of Mr. o G Kibler
as Mr. Augustus Fitz Allen Thomp-
soma professional fllrs, and it looked
like a clear case of MISS Clovertop
attempting to marry the Hon J Bar
rvmore whether or no. But either
sympathy for the fair sex or the win
ming manner of the strikingly beau
tiful accuser prejudiced the jurors
in her favor and they brought in a
verdict against Hon J Barrymore
de Browne Smyshe for $1,000, Flat
Branch plantation, old Nellie and
the buggy. The defense appealed for
a new trial. Mr. R ] Kirk presided
over the court. Judge R K Wallace
