Administrative FEATURESj

The bill marks a distinct departu1
in that it provides for corporate
tax and court Of customs. The CO
poration tax, while yielding a lar
amount of revenue, is primarily
signed for the purpose of governmeI
tai regulation of corporations, and
will have this effect.
The fact that the amount of the t
to be assessed was lowered from III
cent to / pc" cent is considered by t |
members Of congress to- evidence clea
ly that the bill has regulation for
object and not merely revenue.

COLLISION IN DUST CLOUD
PREcIPITATES FIGHT.
Falling Wall Causes Queer
Street Battle.

Two men walking in opposite direc-
tions were enveloped in cloud of dust,
which arose when the wall of q partially
burned building in Summit street was
pulled down today.
When the dust had cleared away it
was discovered that the two pedestrians
were locked fast in each others arms.
There was no referee, but to the amaze
ment of the spectators the men sud-
denly broke and began to display a
choice assortment of uppercuts, swings,
jabs and punches. One Of the specta-
tors was Policeman Maier, of the Fourth
Precinct station. When he had recov-
cred from his surprise, he ran to the
scene and stopped the mill.
Each of the combatants accused the
other Of assault. despite the efforts OF
the policeman to explain. Apparently
each felt the other was responsible for
the falling wall and the cloud Of dust.
1t was only after Maier had threat
ened to arrest them both that the ped
estrians consented to resume their
Journey in opposite directions.

that when she found that they were on
the right track she completely changed
her method, and they were bafffed
again. The condition of the Boyd street
home amply proved the girls stories OF
the dire distress OF her mother, and
much sympathy was felt in the court
