Kansas City, Mo-, May 19.-Tht
supply of both cattle and hogs in the
yards to date this week has been
much heavier than was expected, al
though the demand for everything
coming has been good. The over
supply has caused considerable de-
cline In prices.
Best beef steers 10c lower, medi-
UNI sters and all kinds of butcher
stuff 10 to 25c lower. Stockers and
feeders will average 1Oc lower than
last weeks time.
There are 1000 cattle and 1900
hogs here this morning and prospect
for 10c lower market on both.
With a heavy supply Of hogs the
market has been slow to 10c lower
each day but top sales are only 7h
lower for the two days. Prospects
for the balance of the week look
very unsettled.

Washington, May 19.-That there
will be a sharp contest In the senate
over the proposition to refer to the
judiciary committee, the amendment
to the tariff bill, introduced by Sena-
tor Bailey, providing for an income
tax, is indicated by a coalition Of the
Democrats and some of the progress
Sive Republicans" which has become
known.
Unquestionably the vote will be
close, probably the closest that will
occur In the making Of the tariff bill.
The Democratic strength in the sen
ate is 81 votes, all Of which are pledg-
cd to support the amendment Mr..
Bailey iS counting upon from is to II
Republican votes to secure the adOp-
ton Of the amendment and It Is said
that some Of the "progreSsives" have
assured him that they can deliver that
many. Fifteen would be sufficient II
the Democrats voted sOlidly for the
amendment.
On the other hand, the conservative
Republicans" in charge Of the tariff
bill, say they have made some inroads
upon the progressive Republicans"
camp and that upon the question Of
referring the whole subject Of an In
come tax to the judiciary committee
for a report at the next regular ses-
sion they already have IS votes pledg-
ed and they express confidence Of sue
cess.
Until the understanding was an
nounced, the Democrats and progress
sive Republicans" we're far apart over
the form Of the bill to be supported.
Senators Cummins and Borah, who
were the chief advocates among the
latter for an income tax amendment,
were in favor Of a graduated tax ac-
cording to the size Of the incomes,
and were opposed to q tax on corpora
tons. BY surrendering these conten-
tons, in order to get q vote, It was
said that an agreement would be
reached upon the principal features Of
the Bailey amendment. The plan ls TO |
for a nat tax OF Two Or three |
per cent upon incomes above 5000 |
and upon incomes Of corporations
above the figures named. In order
that there shall be no double taxation
Of individuals, provision win be made

poration stock has been paid through

Died at Monet, Mo-, After Being
Found on Track.

The Monet, Missouri, Star Of May
is contains this item:
Martin Linden, a stranger, age
about 45 years, died this morning
about o'clock at the office of Drs,
Hawkins and Dusenbury, following
an accident in the east yards about
10 o'clock last night in which Linden
lost both legs. Little is known OF
the circumstances of his death. He
was found along the track and it is
presumed that he was either riding
on the head end of passenger No. 8
or fell from some other train. A
switch engine crew passed over his
body but the crew didn't know
whether their engine was the first to
pass over the man. The man, too,
may have deliberately jumped in
front of the moving train for he had
been heard to tell people yesterday
while begging aims on the street that
he didn't care to live. One leg was
cut off below the knee and the other
leg at the hip. The man was con-
scions most of the time after the
accident and talked freely to Chief
of Police jackson and the surgeons.
Linden said his home was at Abilene,
Kan, and that he was formerly a
miner and his right arm had been
lost in a mine explosion. The body
was removed to Callaway's under
taking rooms this morning to await
instructions If any from Abilene. The
man was apparently sober when
seen by parties few minutes before
the accident and it believed that the
act was suicide. The man begged
that he be put out Of the way"
Martin Linden cannot be located
as a resident of Abilene.
