time of the postal strike, armed with
revolyers, ambushed the vans convey

tiers, cut the traces and forced them
back to the stables. Among the vic.
tins were several American horses.
Meanwhile confusion prevailed at the
race track. Finally a force of police
went to the scene of trouble and
drove of the stable boys and rescued
the racers.
Two hours later the crowds, eXas
perated from waiting, became violent
when single horse presented itself
for a walk over in the first event. The
crowd swarmed on the track and re-
fused to permit the Jockey to ride.
The second event was for army of
fcers. When several of them cantered
out they were peltei with missiles,
and two of them severely injured, The
barriers guarding the course were
broken down and several of the in
vaders injured by the wildly excited
horses. Booths and hedges were set
afire. but troops and firemen cleared
the track and extinguished the flames.

Washington, June 20-Some OF ths
news topics that will engage atten.

corporation tax amendments to the
tariff bill; possible action given
against the amendment of the sugar
refining company company: the suit
of Mrs. Howard Gould for legal sepa-

Congressional Forecast.
Although considerable progress has
been made the past week by the SEN
ate in consideration Of the tariff bill,
the date of final vote on the meas.
ure Is as indefinite today as 1t was a
week ago. However. there is less dis
position now to discuss the theoreti-
cal tariff problems so the bills fea.
lures are expected to be dispatched
with greater rapidity. The possib'l.
ity of sending the bill back to the
house by the first of July is now con-
sidered extremely remote.
After the hides duty and wood pulp
amendment are disposed of, it is un-
ierstood, the tax on corporations, pro-
posed by President Taft, will occupy
the senate several days. 1t will pro.
woke much debate.
While no serious EFFORT win be made
TO insure a quorum In the house Mon

Mr.. DOlliver suggested the grading of
duties on wool according to its shrink
age, claiming that because such meth
DDS are not followed there is a wide In
consistency in charges paid by i'm
porters.
Saying that the plan would be in

Senator Carter still objected to it be-
cause such amendments would open the
entire wool schedule to consideration in
conference, and he could not approve
such a course. While declaring that the
wooden schedule should be revised, and
asserting that he favored Mr.. Deliver
proposition, Mr.. Carter said he did not
think such revision should take place
at this time because he feared it might
meet disaster in conference.
Mr.. Smoot declared Mr.. Delivers
amendment was impossible OF admins

wool in the grease, and no two manu-
