KAISER'S PLAN IS DEFEATED
Reichstag Votes Down Extension of
Inheritance Tax.
MUCH EXCITEMENT IS CAUSED
RumOr is Again Circulated that Chan
ceIIOr Won BueIOvv VIII Resign
Coalition Responsible for
Defeat.

BERLIN, June 24.-The Reichstag today
further added to the governments diff
culties in it's proposed financial reforms by
rejecting by a vote of 194 to 1874 the imperial
mnistry's bill to extend inheritance taxes
TO direct heirs, including widows and chill
dren. The president OF the Reichstag an
nounced this evening kha, the bill in It's
present form would be dropped.
Public excitement concerning the situa-
ton showed itself by the filling of the
public and diplomatic galleries to over
flowing. The ministerial and federal coun-
Gil benches were crowded. Chancellor Won
Buelow and his colleagues followed the ebb
and flow of the debate with the keenest
interest. The chancellor, however, did not
speak. He left the chamber when he
learned that the voting was likely to be
unfavoyable to his bill.
The members of the house gathered in
record strength, SS1 being present out of &
total of S97. One of the members present
declined to vote; nine members were alb
sent on account of illness and four from
other causes; three seats were vacant
owing to deaths. The national liberal, Herr
Quarck although seriously Ill, insisted upor
being carried to the house to participate in
the vote.
The speeches were exceedingly bitter
especially those of the conservatives and
national liberals, who hitherto had formed
coalition supporting the chancellor
There was much cheering and sometimes
ironical laughter, as the orators expressed
the views of the party leaders from the
platform. The conservatives, Centrists
Poles Alsatians and Independents united
to form a majority against the government
The Imperial conservatives, national lib
erals, radicals and socialists voted in favor
Of the measure.
1t is rumored tonight that the Reichs
tag shortly will adjourn until autumn, t
permit the government TO revise its fin
ancial scheme, but as the chancellor anC
the other ministers have always expressed
a resolve to include some further tax oil
property, it is not possible to foresee hov
they will be able to clear the situation
Other reports say that parliament will b.
dissolved or that Prince Won Buelow will
resign, but nothing definite is permitted
TO leak out.

responsible" and the officers of the com
pany found they must pay over between

would fail. Accordingly a total Of S3,-

company was started in business with a

The second report concerned the ques-
ton Of organizing the Sheldon syndi-
cate, which later relieved the trust com
pany of the ship building loans. The
Sheldon syndicate paid the trust company
A,125,OOO, and a portion OF todays pro
ceedings was devoted 10 testimony about
