REACH NO SETTLEMENT IN
TELEPHONE INJUNCTION
Hearing on Application to Continue
Restraining Order Is Continued
Until This Morning

After more than an hours argument,
hearing on the application of the sun
set Telephone & Telegraph company to
continue in force the restraining order
preventing the city of Pasadena from
interfering with its lines, was con-
tinued until this morning by Judge
Bordwell of the superior court.
Attorneys representing either side
have not as yet reached an agreement
whereby amicable relations may be
maintained pending the appeal from
Judge Bordwell's decision last month,
when he upheld the validity of the city
ordinance providing for the taxation
of the company according to the num-
Der of poles erected along the streets.
Against the proposition of the COM
pany to continue the restraining order
in force the city contends that the
tax provisions OF. the ordinance should
be compiled with, agreeing to refund
the money should the case ultimately
be decided in favor of the company.

TO TAX INCOMES
AND MONOP0LIES
TAFT WILL SEND MESSAGE TO
CONGRESS
Republicans Generally Approve Of
Plans Formed by Administration,
Though Some Opposition
Is Expected
(By Associated Press.)


WASHINGTON. June 15.-Presldent
Taft will send tomorrow to congress d
message urging the passage of an
amendment to the tariff bill imposing
a tax of 2 per cent on the undistributed
net earnings of corporations and the
adoption of a resolution submitting to
the several states an amendment to the
constitution giving congress the power
to impose a tax on incomes.
This understanding was reached at a
session of the cabinet today and was
approved by Republican senate leaders
who conferred with the president.
In order that there shall be no ques-
ton that the two propositions to be
recommended have the support OF the
administration, Attorney General Wick
ersham will draft both the amendment
and the resolution.
In view of the emphatic stand taken
by President Taft number of pro
gressive Republicans have signitied
their intention of following his recon-
mendations, but some are not satisfied,
and may protest.
Democratic senators are also ex-
pected to denounce the tax on corpora
lions as a substitute for a direct tax
on incomes.
The president favors an amendment
providing for a tax on the net earn
ings OF corporations, not only because
of the added revenue it would produce,
but also because he believes it would
throw a healthy light of publicity upon
the affairs of corporations.
The president is said to be convinced
that if the suggested amendment is
properly drawn it would give govern
ment officials access to the books of all
corporations.
In the language of one of the presi-
dents advisers, lit would do away with
corporation melon cutting and would
insure to the stockholders the respon-
sibility for corporation management.

potato BURGLAR"
GIVEN THREE YEARS
JUDGE REFUSES LENIENCY TO
ALLEGED AUTO THIEF
eardng Probation Law, Pointing
Out Frequent Misinter-
pretations

Some persons think the probation
law has for it's purpose the turning
loose of every person found guilty of
crime and giving them another
chance said Judge Willis of the
criminal court yesterday, when j. A.
Redman, a member of the quartet
known as the potato burglars APP
peared for sentence. This is not q
fact" he continued. 1.-The intent of
the law is that its provisions should
be employed only when the past rec
ord of those who invoke it is such as
to merit its use. The fact that the
law has been used in cases where it
should not has led to the natural con-
clusion in many instances that crimes
may be committed without limit
Redman's application for probation
was denied and he was sentenced 70
Folsom penitentiary for three years.
He pleaded guilty to the robbery of
the home of r. W. Pridham on March
20, entering the house with three 9TH
ers in the guise of vegetable peddlers.
U. C. Swenson, jointly charged with
Redman, was sentenced to two years
at San Quentin, his application for
probation being denied because of the
unsatisfactory replies from persons TO
whom he had referred the probation
officer to prove his previous good
conduct

M. McKellops, found guilty Friday
last of stealing an automobile belong
ing to r. H. Gaylord of Pasadena,
was sentenced to Folsom for three
years. Antonio Orfila, who defended
McKellops during his trial, made a
strong plea for leniency, suggesting
that a suspended sentence be pro-
nounced, but Judge Willis stated the
evidence indicated clearly the mans
guilt.
Cirilo Martinez, a Mexican, charged
with assaulting a fellow countryman
with a knife March z, was sent to the
county Jail for six months, leniency
being shown on account of his fam
lily, now living in Mexico in destitute
circumstances.
c. H. Patterson, charged with a stat
utory offense, was placed on proba-
ton for two years, and Glen Thorp,
who pleaded guilty to a similar charge,
was given five years probation. H.
T. Richards, who drew a check for
$135 on a bank In which he had no
funds, was given a three years pro-
stationary sentence.
