A PLAN OF THE MIILERs
They Can See in Its Fulfill ment a Saving in Freight of Eight Gents a Hundred on Flour to South Ameri- can and Mexican Ports.

St. Paul, Minn., July 4.-The first serious steps in many years towards restoring to the upper Mississippi river the volume of traffic experts believe it should carry are embodied in confer ences now in progress between leading Minnesota millers and river men. which it is believed will result in barg- ing an immense amount of flour here after from the head of navigation at St. Paul through to salt water at New Orleans.
 Prom St. Paul we believe we can barge flour to New Orleans or upper Ohio river points alike for 15 cents" said a representative Of the millers. This is a clear saving of eight cents hundred. and in addition We are con fident that this traffic can be main tained on a schedule of 20 days for the down river trip to New Orleans. 10 days to St. Louis, and 20 days or pos sibly slightly less to the upper Ohio. From present indications I think we will send down the first string of barges before the close of the present navigation season"
 SuiIdDie DafStS TOT TOUT IFdIIlc can be built for $500 each and will last in the opinion of rivermen from 10 to E years. Each will carry ten carloads of freight at average stage. and even more in high water Captain Winans of the tOwbOat Pathfinder. who has been engaged in the towing and raft ing business on the upper river for years has given the millers his opin- ion that the plan is thoroughly prac- tical and can be made to pay. Advices recently received indicate that barges are now under construction for vari- Ous purposes at Saltwater, La Crosse. Dubuque. KeOkUk and other ports and that the construction of flour barges can be readily expedited even for this seasons business.
 The millers point out that an es- pecial advantage of exporting via New Orleans vii be that on eargOes des- tined to South American or Mexican points or for the isthmus, the cost of trans-shipment at New Orleans will be less than from the all rail or lake and rail lines at eastern seabOard points.

AFindI Vote on the Tariff Bill
 This Week THE INCOME TAX ADVOCATES.
Have Lost Heart-The Cor poration Tax Amendment Will Probably Garry. Tobacco Manufacturers to Be Given a Hearing.

Washington, July 3.-It is expected that the senate will reach a final vote on the tariff bill at the end of the week. The income tax is re- garded as the eliminating issue With that disposed of to the satisfaction of the finance committee, the opposition seems to have lost heart
 At one o'clock on Monday the sen ate will vote on the income tax con stitutional amendment. The adminis- trative measure no doubt will be adopted in the senate, and it is be- lieved it will pass the house.
 Other matters remaining to be con- sidered are the drawback provision of the tariff bill, the customs court section, the authorization of the valuation of certain class of imports according to American prices.
 So far the bill has been considered by the senate in the committee of the whole, but as soon as its discussion of that stage is completed the bill will enter the senate proper, where any schedule may be brought up for amendment.
 Among the items to receive atten- ton are the corporation tax, petrO- leum, sugar and probably wood pulp.
 MT. Aldrich has given the promise of the finance committee that it will give special attention to the corpora ton tax measure with view to modifying it to exempt purely mutual benefit concerns such as building and loan associations.
 The proposed increase of internal revenue taxes on tobacco has brought a veritable hornets nest around the senate finance committee. In cOnse- quence, the committee decided today to hearken to demands, and though the amendment for raising the tObac- co taxes is ready for introduction on Tuesday, telegrams have been sent out telling the tobacco manufacturers that they will be heard tomorrow
 An agreement to stand by the pro- vision of the tariff bill for a customs court, was reached today by the finance committee. The provision has been singled for an attack in the senate. It is charged by the oppOn- ents of the new court that its person. nel is already chosed. This is denied by NIT. Aldrich. who added that he knew that President Taft would se- lect the best men The president is in sympathy with the establishment of the court, according to NIT. Ald- rich. who said that the principal Ob- jection is from attorneys who get a million a year from New York alone as commissions in customs cases.

PHOENIX FIIBUSTERERS
 BEING CLOSELY WATCHED
Said to be Designs Against the Gov ernment of Peru.

Deputy United States Marshal Thomas Mooney has a great deal of responsibility on his hands just now watching a filibustering movement or a movement which may develop into a filibustering expedition. It is under stood that he is acting under instruc- tiOns from the treasury department conveyed to him through the depart ment of justice.
 The suspected head of the move ment is Col. Robert Hamilton who has for some time been a well known figure about the sheriffs office and is stin better known as a mining man of the Bill Williams country.
 The treasury department has not been informed of the country against which the activities of the filibusterers are to be directed by Deputy Marshal Mooney has been directed to guard all ports along the Salt and Gila rivers and to inspect carefully the papers of all craft putting to sea
 It was learned cOnfidentiallv from Colonel Hamilton last night that it was the purpose of his party to set up a better government in Peru than has existed there for some time. He un- derstands that there is a great deal of disaffection among the inhabitants of that unhappy country and that they are waiting for a leader to overthrow the present government.
 Colonel Hamilton was asked who was the present president of the re- public He said that the last informa- tion he had on that subject had been gathered from the World Almanac but he had understood that since the is- suance of that publication there had been several changes. However that was not a matter of great moment; there was always room for one more revolution in Peru.
 The forces of the revolutionary par ty are now rendezvOused at we'll known corral ready to move at a mo- ments notice.

WORK OF ANARCHISTS \ WOOASOCKET BOMB FIVE WERE HURT, ONE WILL
 DIE. The Man Supposed to Be Aimed at
 Escaped.

WOonsocket, Mass. July 4.-By the explosion of a bomb thrown last night by an unknawn person five persons were severely hurt. A boy was partly disemboweled and will die The police have no clue to the outrage. The injured men in the crowd surrounded a street ven der, John Harrison, selling neckties.
 The bomb was thrown without warning, apparently from the outer edge of the crowd. It struck close to Harrison's feet, bounded past him and exploded. Pieces of iron and glass were hurled in every direction. but Harrison escaped, although the bomb was apparently aimed at him. He told the police that he had no suspicious of the bomb thrower's identity.
 The police are inclined to attribute the outrage to anarchists.
