london, July 21.-The officials Of
Holloway jail, where the suffragettes
sentenced since the recent riots are
confined, are confronted by serious
situation after the release Of Florence
Cooke and Gladys Roberts, two of the
suHragettes, to prevent them from
starving themselves to death.
The jailers fear deaths will result
from the hunger strike" which IL
still persisted in by dozen of the
remaining prisoners.
Several have eaten nothing for sew
esal days and their physical condition
has become alarming
The released suffragettes, Miss Rob.
erts and Miss Cooke. are being hailed
by their comrades as martyrs. Both
are In dangerous condition, Miss
Roberts being so weak and historical
that her recovery IS expected to take
months.
Misses Roberts and Cooke, when
taken to Holloway jail, insisted upon
being treated as political prisoners.
When they were locked up as COM
mon offenders they rebelled, smashed
prison windows, broke their cell fur
niture. destroyed the prison clothing
given them and assaulted the turn
keys. . l.. e.ens
The jailers thereupon put the two
suffragettes in solitary confinement
and they retaliated by refusing to eat
the prison food.

Panama Bonds to Draw Three Per

Washington, July 2 How to pro-
tect from serious depreciation out
standing United States bonds Is the
intricate problem which confronts con-
gress in connection with the authori-
cation of new issue. It is thought
that the solution can only be effected
through some equitable adjustment of
present plans the secretary of the

from time to time additional Panama

ing not to exceed 8 per cent interest.
The governments interest bearing

the national banks of the country

100000. Four-fifths of the entire ma

classes Of 2 per cent bonds.
Under existing laws national bank
notes, when secured by 2 per cent
bonds, are subject to q tax of one

circulation based on bonds bearing a
higher rate of interest pays tax of

Bonds Depreclatlng In Price.
It has been estimated that at the
present market price of both per
cent consols and Panamas there al
ready has been, on the whole amount
ou' standing, a depreciation from the
price at which the government sold
them to the public Of about $18,OOO,-

portions Of the threes which It is pro-
posed to authorize, with circulation
privileges not materially inferior to
those accorded the twos, would prob
ably result in the further depreciation
of the latter, which might even reach
a point below par, thus impairing the
public credit.
There are s64,OOO,0OO in 8 per cent
bonds and $11S,ooO,o00 In tours now
outstanding. The latter, being mostly
held for investment and little used as
a basis for circulation, need not be the
subject of any special concern.
The question before congress is
how not to discredit the 2 and per
cent bonds now up for circulation and
at the same time make the proposed
issue of per cents attractive to in
vestors.

Tax Amendment.

Attorney General wickersham Ex-

Length and Il is Accepted Without
Deiay-Takes the Place of the
Mouse Inheritance Tax Provision in
! the Original Tariff Bill. e~
" Washington, July 2,l-The confer
ence committee Of the two houses of
congress on the tariff bill has
agreed to accept the senate's corpora
tlon tax amendment, but the agree
ment was not reached until after the
provision had been redrafted by the
attorney general and many changes
had been made. ..-. -:...
The most important of the changes
was the reduction OF the tax from 2
per cent on the net earnings of cor
porations to per cent. Attorney
General Wickersham appeared before
the committee and explained all the
new provisions at length, apparently
TO the satisfaction of all the confer
ees, who lost little time In signifying
their acceptance OF the provision after
hearing his statement concerning it.
1t appeared that much difficulty had
been found In the matter of the ex-
emption of the earnings Of such cor
porations as all felt should be ex-
empted, but there was general feel
Ing that the new draft had accom-
plished as much as language could
accomplish in that direction.
The corporation tax amendment
Will take the place Of the house pro-
vision for an Inheritance tax, which,
according to the agreement, will go
out of the BILL
Every ! precaution was taken to
avoid double taxation by the amend.
ment. The modification adopted in
the senate at the instance Of Senator
Clapp, specifically including holding
companies az among those to be taxed,
was disregarded in redrafting the pro-
vision.

Calais, France, July 2..-Herbert
latham made the attempt to cross the
English channel from here with an
acceptance, but dropped into the sea
after disappearing from view from
land. He was brought back here
aboard the torpedo boat destroyer
Harpon apparently unhurt. A tug
'towed the aeroplane in.
The accident occurred after Latham
had covered about sixteen miles.
While at a great height the motor
failed and the machine fell into the
water. The French torpedo boat de-
stroyer Harpon, however, was close
at hand and rescued both Latham and
his monoplane.
