SEVERAL SEVERELY HURT
IN ENSUING STAMPEDE
Women and Children Crushed at Exits
in Mad Rush to Get Out Of Building
Floors Were Crowded With S and 10
Cent Bargain Seekers in Detroit
Store.

Detroit, July 3.-A half dozen wom-
en- were severely injured today when
a cry of fire" caused panic in
and 10 cent store while the place
was jammed with people. One child
Is said to be fatally hurt.
The concern was having it's opening
today in new location at the corner
of Woodward avenue and State street.
The five-story building was literally
jammed with people, principally wom-
en- and children. 1t is estimated that
about 900 women were busy searching
for bargains on the second floor when
the panic started. Two women are said
to have reached simultaneously for
the same article, and to have begun
scMtfling over it. This attracted the at
tentlon of those near by The onlookers
pressed about them when suddenly the
cry of fire" was heard. It turned
hundreds Of shoppers instantly into a
maddened, fighting mob, intent only
upon reaching the stairway at the roar
of the building. In a moment the STAIR
way, the floor below and the second
floor alb we were one solid mass Of
frightened, screaming women and chill
drep. Clothes were torn and hats
ripped off, and those who were fortu-
nate enough to lose their footing were
trampled on. Employees of the store, as
sisted by tho police. finally convinced
the mob that the building was not afire
and succeeded in calming them.
Dozen in Hospital.
Rose Bascondi, aged z, is reported
dying at st. Mary's hospital from a
fractured skull received when she was
l-~Ncked down and trampled on. Nearly
a dozen more women and children are

emergency treatment for their bruises
and small cuts, at the stores. and went
to their homes.

AFTER PASSING TAFT CORPORA.
TIoN TAX MEASURE SENATE
PREPARES NEXT STEP.
ALpRlcH WOULD BOOST
MAXIMUM AND MINIMUM
Presents amendment to House Rates
imposing Higher Tariff on Imports
from Countries Refusing Favors to
United states--Amendment Preeipi-
tates Lively Debate.

Washington, July 3.-The income tax
question was brought up in the senate
today and an agreement reached to
vote at / o'clock Monday on Browns
resolution providing for the submission
to the states of the amendment to the
constitution authorizing the imposi-
tion Of an income tax.
This agreement is equivalent to a
declaration that the senate will pro-
ceed with its business on the 5th of
July, despite the observance of a holi-
day everywhere else.
The senators were slow in gathering
today, and much time was consumed
in acquiring quorum. AS soon as
routine business was permitted Brown
took the floor to press the income tax
proposition. He asked that a vote be
taken Immediately, but encountered
opposition from various quarters, Nc
14aurin being especially antagonistic.
After considerable debate, the Nebras-
ka senator agreed to postpone action,
and presented proposition for vote
on Monday. There was no especial
objection and the vote was accordingly
ordered.
Maximum and Minimum Rates.
The tariff bill was then taken up.
Aldrich presented his maximum and
minimum rate amendment. He pro-
ceeded to explain the senate's substi-
tute for the original provision as 1t
passed the house. The house provided
Tor q specified increase in the rates of
duty on numerous articles fixed by the
bill In case of a failure Of the country
from which any given article should
come to grant to imports from the
United States the same terms given to
jmportations from the most favored
nations. The senate committee on
finance presented a complete substi-
ttte providing fcs an increase of twen-
ty-five per cent over the rates of the
Payne bill against the United States.
The amendment provides the additional
rate should go into effect Immediately
unless the president should, after
March 3D.. 1910, issue a proclamation
that no such discrimination exists.
The amendment also provides duty of
5 cents per pound on coffee and 10
cents per pound on tea coming from
countries thus discriminating against
the products Of the United States.
Moving to strike from the amendment
the maximum tariff on tea, Daniel crit
tcised the committees amendment.
Tea and Coffee Tax Defeated.
On motion of Daniel the senate
struck from the maximum and mini
mum rate amendment the provision for
a duty of 5 cents on coffee and 10 cents
per pound on tea. coming from coun-
tries which discriminate against pro-
duets of the United States.

VOTE FOR TAX DECISIVE.
Senate Adopts Measure Earlier Than
Expected,

Washington, July 3.-The senate last
evening disposed Of the corporation tax
and income tax proposition. Action
was taken much earlier than was gen.
orally expected. The corporation tax
was adopted in the committee of the
whole by q vote of 60 to IL. The real
test as between corporation tax and the
Bailey Cummins income tax amend
ment resulted in adopting the corpora
tion tax as an amendment to the
Bailey y-Cummins proposition by a vote
Of IS to 81.
Senators Cummins and Dolliver
voted consistently at every stage of
the proceedings against the corporation
tax. Not only did they vote for the
Bailey Cummins income tax amend
ment IN preference to the corporation
tax, but they were among the eleven
who voted against the corporation tax
when the question of adoption came up
after the Bailey Cummins amendment
had been voted down. With this mat
ter disposed of, 1T is generally con-
sidered that the end of the tariff bill is
In sight and that by the end of the
month the measure will probably be in
the hands Of the president.
Senator Cummins spoke at length
yesterday afternoon in answer to Sen
ator Roots arguments of Thursday in
support OF the corporation tax. SEN
satur Ciii;,i; ;:::!!::s started e.! to speak but
thirty minutes. but kept the floor near
" an houd and half. He denied that
there was any just ground for saying
It was improper to pass law that
would challenge the decision of the SUI
preme court. He said if the income tax
measure were passed it would be taken
before the supreme court in an orderly
manner without politics and without
any newspaper campaign, as Mr.. Root
seemed to fear.
cummins Refers to Root.
Senator Cummins took up Mr.. Roots
objection that the income tax would
oppress one section more than anoth-
er. AS to that he said wealth. could not
be taxed geographically. 1t had to be
taxed where 1t is found. He acceded
to the idea that the income tax should
be graduated, but pointed out there
had been strong opposition to that in
the senate. He denied that the corpora
tion tax measure as framed by the An
ance committee accomplished any sep
aration of distinction between an
earned and un unearned income. AS
to the publicity features Of the corpo.
ration tax amendment, these, he said,

Washington. July 3.-A ruling was
made today by the interstate commerce
commission that "One carrier shipping
fuel, material or other supplies over the
lines Of another carrier must pay the
legal tariff rates applicable to the same
commodities shipped between the same
points by an Individual II the car
riers insist upon making or maintain-
ing preferential rates they may con-

unreasonableness of the higher rates
which they may undertake to enforce
