 Submit dn1ely To Tax
By PATTERSON sTEALEY.

Washington, June H.--(Special. )-There are undoubted evidences that the corpora tions as a rule are not going to tamely submit to the proposition to tax their net earnings. When President Taft first sprang this matter in his message to that Senator Aldrich and his assistant managers would consent to the legislation at this late stage of the session, but the pressure appears to have been too great for the republican managers in the Sen ate to hold out against the administra- ton, and the amendment will have to be put through, even If it has to be dropped out of the tariff bill when it gets into conference.
 This corporation tax business has seri- ously complicated the situation and now men who thought Congress would cer- tainly be able to adjourn by July 10 or 15 declare gloomily that they would not be surprised if the session runs well into August. They hardly see how it can be brought to an end much before August l.
 Reports that the Payne bill rates on gloves and hosiery will be restored to the tariff measure when it gets into con ference have stirred up no end of trouble for an already weary, hard worked and irritable Congress. These reports have perturbed the women of the land, and the mail that goes to the capitol daily is
The Birmingham age-herald., 1909-06-22

teeming with missives appertaining to the subject of gloves and hosiery. and pro- testing against an increase in duties
 In other words the war that waged while the Payne bill was in the House against higher rates than those of the Dingley law on stockings and gloves is rising again. The reports have excited a. large part of the female population from Maine to California and from Chi cago to the gulf. For a time, when the finance committee reported for lower rates than the House bill, there was calm and quiescence. But the near ap- proach of the time when the tariff bill is to go to conference, together with the rumors of deep, dark plot afoot, have made the women nervous.
 Chicago Is the center of the agitation The womens clubs of that city are not allowing the matter to rest They are warning their sisters belonging to clubs all over the country to be on the alert and to have their sentinels on the watch towers, lest the prices on gloves and hos iery are suddenly increased through the imposition of rates higher than the Ding ley duties. Talk is even heard of dele gation of women who wear gloves and stockings and think they are paying too much already descending on the capitol and talking the statesmen out of the idea of increasing the rates.
 But there are other possibilities In the situation It Is possible that this glove and hosiery business will lead to some di- verting politics in the next campaign for the election of members of the House of Representatives.

Wash ington, June 21.--That the Wright brothers will take every pre- caution to prevent any recurrence of the accident that occurred to Orville at Ft Myers last September is evident pairing for the resumption of the aero plane tests this week.
 It is not likely they will make tn cir speed trial over the course to Alexan- dria, Va, on account of the roughness of the country in that direction, but 1t Is more probable that tn ey will take the ffve-mile course in the direction of Falls Church, Va. west of Fort Myer
 The machine which Orville will use to complete the government trial is entirely new with the exception of the motor which Is the same one used last year. double set of guy wires has been attached to the rear rudder. Or vile Wright explained today that al- though he had been under the impress sion that the accident last fall was due to the vibrations of those same guy wires, after an examination of the wrecked machine at Dayton, he was convinced that the accident was caused by the greater power of one propeller causing the entire rear part of the machine to strain on one side. This caused one blade of one propeller to strike the guy wires, breaking them from their fastenings and disabling the entire machine.
 Today, Orville and Wilbur Wright with their chief mechanic, Charles E. Taylor, and Lieut. B. D. Foulois of the signal corps, worked on the intricate arrangement of the wires bracing the plane. The Wrights do not expect that their aeroplane will be ready to fly before Friday or Saturday. Orville Wright said today that the machine is

SUSPICIOUS ACT
 OF CHINAMAN

Chicago, June H.-Search was begun here today for a Chinaman whose ap- pearance and nervousness suggested that he might be the William Leon" wanted in connection with the staying of Miss Elsie Sigel at New York.
 Mrs. Dora Levin, keeper of a board ing house near the union depot, put the police on the trail.
 "A Chinaman wearing American clothes and carrying a straw valise came to me today and wanted a room," Mrs. Levin told the officers. 'He appeared fatigued and was extremely nervous. He spoke English plainly and seemed fairly well educated. His hair was neatly trimmed v
 Mrs Levin asked the visitor to check his valise. He at first agreed, writing on a card his supposed name, T. Nesmer. or "J. Wisner,'' the police could not decipher which.
 q had hardly taken the card from him." the landlady continued, when he grabbed his baggage and ran down the stairway into Canal street,
 Mrs Levin described the Chinaman as rather tall and slender, and about 30 wears of age.
