Y. M. G. A. athletic committee took
place today at Weequahic Park. John
Critik, who had a 2M-minute handicap

Critik, first; c. McNab, second, and A

to these rune are: A gold medal to
the winner, a silver medal to the mar

made the distance of five miles in 81
minutes fiat. OF the twelve men who
started, ten finished, Hubert Smith and
c.. Hamhurst, both of whom had a three
and one-half-minute handicap, being
the only ones who were compelled to
quit.
Hamhurst made a good start, finish
ing in the lead at the end of the frs
lap, but it soon became evident that h,
had over-taxed himself in accomplish

race. The course over which the rac'

NEW BOY, WHO DIDN'T GIVE
NAME, FLEES WITH CASH.
Butchers Assistant Looked
Honest, but He Wasn't.

e. Kohn, a butcher, of 504 Clinton
avenue, hasn't nearly so much faith in
human nature today as he had yester-
day. Kohn had a boy working for him,
but neglected to find out his employees
name n address. The lad seemed
honest enough, but when he was sent
to the Kohn residence yesterday to
bring back to the store $50, he, like the
cat of fond memory, never came
back
Kohn furnished the police with a fail
description Of the missing boy, but
beyond the fact that he understands the
boy lived in Kearny was unable to fur
nish any clue to his whereabouts.

THE DEBATE STARTS
SENATOR Al0RIcH WILL MAKE
GENERAL STATEMENT.
SENATOR DANIEL WILL FOLLOW
Democrats Will Urge an Income Tax
As the Best Means for Swelling
Government Receipts.


the senate will begin Monday imme.
diately after the close of the routine
business. Senator Aldrich, chairman
Of the committee on finances. will
open the proceedings with q general
statement in support Of the bill and
he will be followed by Senator Daniel.
the senior democratic senator. who is
expected to outline the democratic po-
sition regarding the measure. Sena-
tor Aldrich will go into detail in expla-
nation of the various changes made
by his committee and it is understood
will undertake to show that the bill, as
reported, will be q strong revenue
producer.
Senator Daniel and other democrats
will take the opposite view. They de-
clare that the weakness of the Payne
Aldrich bill is found in that it will not
insure sufficient income to permit the
governmental business to proceed
without the addition of other features
which will put money into the national
treasury.
The democratic senators will urge
an income tax as the most rational
and most prolific means of increasing
the receipts. All of them will support
an income tax provision and in addi-
urge a tax on all dealings in futures.
They will have the support of some
of the republican senators, but will
not receive assistance from any Of
the members of the committee on
finance as they take the position that
with greater economy and improved
business conditions which all are pre-
dieting the bill will insure sufficient
revenue to meet the demands of the
government.
There will not be in the senate as in
the house any sharp dividing line be-
tween general debate and the discus
sion of amendments to the schedules.
but on the contrary it is expected that
after the close of the Al
drich and Daniel speeches the read
ing of the bill will proceed with
view to considering amendments
whenever they may be offered.
If senators desire to make set
speeches, even on the general sub
ject of the tariff, they will be per-
mitted to do in connection with the
of the different SEIZED
ules. If it is found necessary, there
will be frightening of the daily ses-
sions. The democrats profess as
great anxiety as the republicans for
the early disposition of the measure.
Among the republicans who will speak
on the bill are Messrs. Lodge. Brown,
Carter, Cummins. Cullom, Hepburn.
Nelson and Smith of
Michigan. while the democratic ora
tors will include Senators Bailey. Ba-
con. Bankhead. Clay. Gore. Johnston,
Money. Newlands. Rayner and Smith
Of South Carolina.
The house will be in session on
and Thursday only and no
business will be done on either day
beyond making provisions for the
next census.
