NothiOgM More Gan Be Learned
 of SigeI Murder Inquiry LEON LING ALONE GUILTY
All Other Suspects Out of Jail-A Country m a n Proved to Chung Sin the Advantage to His Race of Concealing Nothing.

New York, June 23-After a day of conflicting statements. the district at torneys office, acting under instruc- tions from Jerome and Police Com missioner Bingham, refused tonight to discuss further what progress had been made in the search for Leon Ling, the Chinese wanted for the mur- der of Elsie Sigel.
 Neither would they discuss the re- suits of the examination of Chung Sin. Leon Ling's former roommate, who has been variously reported to have witnessed the crime, to have aided in roping the trunk, and finally merely to having seen the girls body. There have been hourly reports of clews from all parts of the country, but none brings the authorities any nearer to the murderer.
 What progress has been made with Chung Sin, who this afternoon under went another four hours of cross ques- tiOning, was due to Quong Yick Nam. a Chinese merchant, who acted as in terpreter. It is said he told Chung Sin that no Chinese society would aid him in expressing the facts or in conceal ing Leon Ling; that every Chinese in fluence in the country felt that the case was bringing disrepute on their race, and they all were united in their efforts to run down the murderer. With more to gain than to lose by truth, Chung Sin then talked freely if not frankly
 That he has not been actually inn plicated in the crime itself however, is indicated by the fact that tonight he was held in the house of detention for witnesses, and not in the Tombs. Whatever may be the whole truth of the information yielded by Chung Sin, it contains the only clew on which the police can work, as Gnu Gain, an ad- mirer of the girl of whom Leon Ling was jealous, Sun Leung, proprietor of the restaurant over which the murder was committed and other Chinese ar rested, are out on bail, pumped dry.

Amendment For Taxing the
 Earnings of Corporations NOSES COUNTED TODAY
When Bailey Cummins In come Tax Project Has Been Smothered Amend ment Will Receive Sup
 port of Senate Majority.

Washington, June 23-Before the senate takes up President Tafts pro gram for the taxation of the net earn ings of corporations. the leaders will know how every member intends to vote on the subject. The most careful poll that can be made will be in the hands of MT. Aldrich tomorrow and will be communicated to the president. It appears that the finance committee members were justified in assuring the president that the measure would be adopted.
 Representative John Dwight of New York, the republican whip, promised the senate leaders today that if the senate adds the corporation tax plan to the tariff bill, the amendment will be retained by the house.
 Attorney General Wickersham and Senator Root today determined that the measure should be made amend ment proof before it is offered to the senate It is the intention of the sen ate leaders to, resist any amendment that may be offered. The supporters of the Bailey -Cummins income tax which the presidents plan is expected to suppIant, have not abandoned their intention to obtain direct vote on the income tax question. If their amend ment is displaced it is likely that prac- tically all the republicans will vote for the corporation tax

END OF THE RACE
 ACROSS CONTINENT
FORD NO. 2 ARRIVES AT SEATTLE
Twenty Two Days Out of New York.

Seattle, June 22.-Amid the cheers of 15,O00 people who blocked the streets around the main entrance to the Alas ka- Yukon Pacific exposition to such an extent that with difficulty the rac- ing automobile forced its way through, Ford car No. ?, driven by w. B. Scott. crossed the tape at 12:55:35 o'clock this afternoon, winning the transcOn- tinental automobile race.
 The car was out from New York p days and 55 minutes. It was seriously delayed during the last 100 miles by deep snow in SnOqualmie Pass. In the Cascade mountains. Driver Scott said that in some places drifts were five feet deep. and that the road through the pass was the worst he had en- countered in the trip.
 Because of a rumOr that a protest would be entered because he was re- ported to have dropped a man and to have picked him up afterwards, the Guggenheim trophy cup and the S2,000 purse were not awarded the winner this afternoon.
 The ShaWmut car, which entered the Cascade mountains eight hours behind Ford No. ? has not reported. It is ex- pected to finish during the night and claim the second prize of $1,500.

Senate Committees Amend.
 mGntS All Stand BY USUAL MAJORIIlES
Pineapple Question Further Splits the Solid South, the Florida Contingent Securing a Retention of the Old Dingley Rates.

Washington, June 23.-In uneXpect- edly short order the senate today dis posed of the lumber schedule and then agreed upon rates of duty on pineapples.
 MT. Aldrich asked that the lum- ber schedule receive first attention. He had no sooner taken his seat than Senator McCumber, who has been persistent advocate of free lumber, presented an amendment reducing the finance committees rates of $1.50 per .OOO feet on sawed lumber to the house rate of S1.0O per 1000 feet This was generally recognized as a test proposition, as sawed lumber has been the bone of contention from the beginning The result was against him, and was another triumph for the Aldrich rates, the vote standing A for and A against the house rates.
 Another test came on the proposi- tion to make a rate of S1.25 per thousand on lumber with a general change in differentials and on this vote the finance committee was also liberally supported.
 The entire wood schedule making reductions of about 25 per cent from the present rates and increasing the house rates in the pending bill 70 about the same extent, was then adopted.
 The house fixed a duty of eight cents per cubic foot on pineapples in barrels and $S per 1000, but the sen ate finance committee reduced this rate to cents and s7 respectively, thus restoring the provisions of the Dingley law MT. Taliaferro of Florida presented an amendment re- storing the house rate, but changing other portions of the schedules so as to require the payment of half a cent d pound on pineapples in bulk.
 Messrs. Smith and Rayner of Mary land, in whose state there are large pineapple canning establishments made a strenuous fight against the increase of duty. Mir. Rayner charg- cd the republican party with bad faith, promising lower tariff duties. After a debate lasting about fou" hours. NIT. Taliaferro's amendment was adopted by 34 to %. This was a defeat for the finance committee, but the amendment was not strenu- ously resisted by the committee and several of it's members voted for it..
 It had been expected that the coal schedule would be debated at great length, but it was passed after little more than an hours discussion.
 The new schedule was presented by MT Aldrich,s reducing the house rate on bituminous coal from SIC per ton, to soc and eliminating the house re- ciprocity clause.
 An amendment to the subject of wood pulp was introduced by MT Aldrich. The amendment gives the president authority to double the duty on all printing paper of the value of 3 cents per pound, or less, i'm ported from any country which for bids or restricts the eXportation of wood pulp pulp wood or print paper to the United States or other wise discriminates against such expOrta ton.
 The provision is intended to au- thorize the president to meet the re- cent determination of Canada to pro- hibit the exportation of logs to the United States.

COMBINATION OF SYSTEMS
Government Contributes to Facilities Between Je- rome and Flagstaff the Chief Relay Station of the Postal in This Region.

Phoenix in the early future, is to have a competing telegraph line. The Postal Telegraph company, which formerly had an office here, but abandoned it on account of the eXpir- ation and impossibility of renewing it's contract with the Santa Fe, Pres colt & Phoenix Railroad company, will again enter the city, this time through the medium of the Overland Telephone company's wires.
 It is not possible to substantiate these statements by any of the par ties directly concerned, at this time, nevertheless enough has been learned from various sources to warrant the statement that the Postal is coming and has already formulated its plans for cooperation with the Overland Moreover, the news from Flagstaff practically substantiates the plan rumored.
 The Postal operates wires along the northern railroad, the chief relay station of the Postal being at Flag staff. The Overland Telephone com pany has a system a,Ong the Santa Fe Pacific also, and according to an nouncement from Flagstaff, is oper- ating harmoniously with the Postal there.
 It is well known that the Postal was 10th to leave Phoenix when it had a line here before, but was forced out by the application of con- tracts previously made by the Santa Fe, which became effective after the s. F. P. & P. was sold to the parent system. It is known that the Over land Telephone company has secured rights in Flagstaff. Jerome and Pres colt and it has been announced that the Overland proposes to construct a new line entirely between Prescott and Phoenix.
 The connection between Jerome and Flagstaff is still somewhat in definite but there is ample reason for believing the plan may easily be worked out. The government has a number of telephone lines connecting the stations in the Coconino forest reserve with each other and with Flagstaff. Recently it was announce ed that s5,000 of an appropriation of s11 1000 was to be used in repairing and strengthening and improving these lines and that an arrangement had been made with the Overland whereby it should exchange long dis tance service for local service. By this chain of lines the Overland will make it's Jerome connection and then with a line built to Phoenix the Postal through its contract with the Overland, can furnish Phoenix tele- pranh service simultaneously with the long distance telephone service.

 Should inefficiency be discovered, it will of course be corrected. However the president has indicated his great interest in the work of the reelama- tion bureau on many occasions and has no purpose of interfering with its growing usefulness.
