OPPOSITION OF SENATOR eulkE.
LEY PREVENTS AN AGREE
MENT BEING REACHED.
I'LL FEELING is AROUSED.
Flint Requests That Ballot Be Taken
on Entire Matter at 12 O'Clock Next
Tuesday and an Understanding Is
About Reached When Connecticut
Man SpoiIs Entire Schems.

Washington, July 1.-The senate
came within one" today of agree
ing to vote next Tuesday on the en-
tire income tax amendment to the
tariff BILL including the corporation
tax substitute. The compact was pre-
vented by the objection of Senator
Bulkeley. His opposition aroused no
little Ill feeling. The proposition took
the form of request from Senator
Flint in charge of the tariff bill in
the absence of Senator Aldrich, for
unanimous consent to vote ON the
Bailey Cummins income tax amend
| lnent and all of the amendments to
the amendment at IL O'Clock next
Tuesday, with the understanding that
the senate should remain in session
until all these questions should be
disposed of. The suggestion created a
general furry in the senate.
The proceedings for brief time
took on the appearance of general
conversation at sewing bee. One
senator after another expressed
his consent to the proposition
until for few moments it
looked as if all objections would be
brushed away. Just as the vice pres.
ident was stating the agreement for
about the third time, Mr., Bulkeley
loomed up and proceeded to say that
he could not agree that the vote
should be taken at the time specified.
He did not then give his reason and
he was Immediately beset by a dozen
or more senator's in the hope of pre-
1t. =, ted 1T
opposition. 1t turned out that while
he was opposed to the corporation
tax amendment, his real reason was
that he expected to be absent from
the city next Tuesday and did not
want the vote recorded while he was
away. He expects to be in Connecti-
cut with the president next Tuesday.
He did not change his mind, but
when the senate adjourned many of
the Connecticut senator's colleagues
were hopeful that he might be in
clned to do so tomorrow.
1t was evident when Senator Flint
made his proposition that the discus
sion of the income tax question had
been almost. if not quite. exhausted.
There were today several speeches for
and against the measure, Mr.. Borah
leading off in favor of the income
tax, but opposed to the corporation
tax and Mr.. Root following on the
other side and advocated the corpor-
alton tax but opposed the income tau.
Other speakers of the day were Sem
ator Clapp and Senator owen, favor
ing the income tax, with incidental
remarks by Senator Flint and others.

to be about % or 30 years. Icons
age was given out by the police as

to arrive at any conclusion as to how
the Chinaman met his death.

the governments attitude which was
considered uncertain when the United

RUINS OF BUILDINGS AND
CAUSE A PANIC.
WOMAN AND BABY KILLED.
Twenty-Five Thousand Residents of

Into Streets in Terror and Camp Out

Messna, July 1.-Messna eXper-
about 7:3O o'clock this morning which
were accompanied by roaring sounds
and are said to have had a stronger
and more sundulatory movement than
the one last December, which de
stroyed Messina, and other cities, laid
waste many villages in Calabria and
killed 100000 persons Although the
shocks today had no such terrible
consequences, the 25,00O residents of
the city were thrown into terror. They
ran into the streets panic-stricken
and tonight nearly the entire popula-
tlon is encamped in the open places,
fearing to return to the structures
which Gave served them as homes
since the city was destroyed.
The broken walls of the old ruins
were thrown to the ground and Mes
sina was for few minutes smothered
in a cloud of dust. The casualties
were few and the only persons killed,
so far as is known, We're q young
woman and her infant. The woman
had come here only a few days ago
and had settled in rooms which the
great earthquake had left relatively
unchanged. She was standing at the
door when the shock came and rushed
inside to save her child. Before she
could escape from the room the sec
ond shock threw down the walls
burying both mother and child under
the stairs.

New York, July 1.-Although COM

probability that the body of China

Leon Ling, or William l.. Leon, the
murderer of Elsie Sigel. The mans
height, weight and general appear

THE PRESIDENT AS REFEREE.

Word comes from Washington that
President Taft is confident Of success
in trimming down the Senatorial sched-
ules in the tariff bill. He has been
telling his friends, so it is reported, that
the tariff bill that is going to be sent
TO him to sign (or veto) twill be con
siderably better than the Payne bill. -
If this report is correct and the Presi-
dent sticks to it, this must mean that
the Senate bill is going to be thoroughly
oyerhauIed, and wherever the duties
were raised by the Senate, those raises
will be cut off. The Payne bill, as 1T
passed the House, was fairly sats-
factory measure. 1T met very consist
entity. the President S Interpretation OF
the Republican National platform made
in his speeches last year, that there
would be tariff revision and that
'!that revision would be downward. -
The Payne bill made this revision down
ward, and it was received with salts
faction by the Republican press
throughout the country; IT fairly con
formed TO the campaign pledges
of the President.
The smpposition is, in fact it is nm
derstood in Washington, that tho con

will act in conjunction with the Presi

MIR. FRAZIER is ALL RIGHT.

IT is stated that Il dairy concern in
this city is "aftcr the scalp of City
Food Inspector Walter j. Frazier, be
cause he is vigorously enforcing the or
dinance which requires clean and pure
dairy products to be furnished the pco-
pie of Salt Lake. Mr. Frazier need not
be afraid OF any such threats as this;
VIC don t imagine for ono moment that
he is in the least afraid or timid by rca-
son of any such talk that may be in
dulged in. He is doing his duty cleanly,
thoroughly, and rightly to the people
of this city in requiring pure milk and
other dairy products to be supplied
Nothing is more destructive Of the
health Of the inhabitants, and especial
ly of the health of children, than sup
Iply Of impure milk.
To do away with impure milk and en-
force the terms of the ordinance TO
supply pure milk and sanitary dairy
supplies of all kinds to the people is the
prime object and duty of Mr.. Frazier.
In this he Will be backed by the pco-
pie of this city who desire the punish
ment of those who evade the require
ments Of the ordinance and who would
like to supply unsanitary milk, butter, or
cheese TO the public in place of con
forming to the ordinance Mr.. Fra
zier relies, evidently, upon the sup
| port of the people of this city and Of
| the administration in his effort 10 com
| pei the observance of the ordinance
for the supplying of pure milk and but
ter in Salt Lake, and he has it. There
is not the least doubt about this. The
people will not stand for impure milk,
butter or unsanitary food supplies of
any kind.
Any concern that thinks it can get
support in this city for the evasion Of
the ordinance, the overturning Of prop
er food inspection and especially of the
proper milk tests, Is making a very Sc
rious mistake Mr.. Frazier shows that
certain of the dairy companies fall
scandalousv short of the proper stan
dard in the sealing, according 10
government regulations and tests. These
concerns must not only cease their op-
position TO the law and ordinance, and
to the pure and sanitary requirements
in all their products, but they must
bring up their standard TO the govern
mcut tests. This is nothing more than
fair and right. Some of the concerns
fairly meet the government tests; those
that do not must reform or go out of
business; because their products Will be
destroyed as fast as they are offered
for sale in Salt Lake. and the people
will back vigilant, sllillful and expert
inspection 10 see that the children of
Salt Lake are supplied with pure milk.
Any concerns that think the people of
this city are backing them as against
the inspector in this matter, Will wake
up some fine day and find themselves
out Of custom and under the severest
public aud Official condemnation, as well
as defendants before the bar of justice.
