SESSION WILL CONTINUE INTO
AUGUST, SAYS ELKINs. If COR
PORATION TAN Is TAKEN UP
TAFT CONFIDENT OF MEASURE

WASHINGTON, June 22.-When
the senate met today. Senator Aid
rich on behalf of the finance com
mittee, offered amendments to sew
eral paragraphs of the tariff biz
which had purposely been passed over
They were agreed to by the senate.
the various duties that were wanted
being as follows
Saltpeter. 10 " cents pound.
Zinc oxide, containing zinc but not
lead, one cent pound
keenes Cement, in which gypsum
IS common part. from $3.50 to $4
per ton.
Iron steel ore and metals glazed
with vitrolus glass. $45 per ton.
Asbestos and ehlorite of iron on
the free list
President Taft Is decidedly
optimistic over the outlook of his cor
poration tax, but mum ber OF sena-
tors were called 10 the White House
today and declared that the pro-
position would keep the senate il
session long past August l. Senator
Elkins was one, and declared he and
Others would have some remarks to
make in the senate when the new
scheme OF taxation Is considered. Mr..
Elkins believes all corporations would
attempt to avoid payment of the tax
President Taft, on the other hand
does not believe that a per cent
tax on net earnings is heavy enough
TO make any OF the larger corpora
tions resort to eyasive measures. As
to bonds, 1t is possible the president
feels. 10 prov ida limit for the issu-
ance OF such securities. based on the
capital stock. that will prevent cor
porations from transferring all their
securities into bonds the interest on
which is paid from gross earnings.
Some provision may be made as to
the issuance OF bonds In the future
TO provide that the interest shall be
paid only from net earnings. At
torney General Wickersham and
Senator Root are Jointly preparing a
draft OF the new law.
Questions as to the constitu-
tionality OF the proposed tax does MOI
disturb the president. The right to
impose such tax has been distinctly
upheld in ease before the supreme
court-that OF Spreekles against the
United States. Ii the income tax
were passed. injuctions against its
collection could be secured because
of the supreme court decision de-
claring unconstitutional former acl
of this character. 1t would be years
before any collections could be made
under such a tax, even If the court
finally reversed itself The president
does not believe there is any i'm
mediate emergency 10 stop collection
of corporation taxes. The courts
must presume it TO be constitutional
under decision of the past and hence
no injunetions would be issued.
There seems now to be little doubt
but that the corporation tax as passed
will exempt earnings of $4,000 and
less. so as to take any undue burdens
off the smaller corporations. This
is the understanding at the White
House.

Grand River is Racing
Through Long Tunnel
While Burned TrestIe
Adds to Difficulties
MIDLAND ALSO OUT
OF BUSINESS-UNUSU RAINS
CAUSE OF FLOODS-ROAD OF
FICIALS MUCH WORRIED.

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo, June %
The ID. & r. G.. tunnel at Tunnel
station 20 miles east of here was
flooded by the Grand River this
morning and traffic in both directions
effectually blocked.
The tunnel is more than quarter
of mile long and is now flooded to
a depth of a foot, with the water
rising higher. The tracks at both
ends of the tunnel are in danger
All east bound traffic is delayed.
Further obstruction to traffic has
to be met with near Debuque, "a
miles east of here, where 100 feet
of trestle, carrying the joint tracks
of the Colorado Midland and the ID.
C r. G. was destroyed by fire last
night. At that point passengers are
being transferred on wagons.
The Grand River trouble is con-
sidered the far more serious of the
difficulties. Due to unusually heavy
rains which have prevailed In a large
area for some days past and also to
rapidly melting snow in che noun
tains, the river is swollen far be-
yond its banks and there is no inn
mediate prospect for recession.
Hundreds of men were hurried TO
the tunnel today and are endeavor-
ing to build a breakwater which will
throw the river away from the
tracks. There are, however, great
difficulties TO be overcome in this at
tempt and success is doubtful. The
railroad engineers are straining every
nerve to make the plan work, as il
is feared that damage which is pos
sible in the tunnel from the flood
racing through it might close the
line indefinitely. There is conse-
quently great anxiety on the part of
the railroad officials Damage sus-
tanned to date will run nigh into the
thousands of dollars.

extent thereof" is pefng construed
as meaning that the application must
affirmatiyely show by proof of ex-
ploration that the vein exists in fact
throughout the whole length of the
claim.
This construction of the paragraph
is erroneous. By the words quoted
it was intended to require the claim
ant to show the existance of a vein
in such workings as he relied on to
establish a discovery. BY the extent
of the vein was meant its size and
quality as disclosed. This being
done. the presumption exists that the
vein extends on its strike through
out the whole length of the claim as
located.
The sole purpose of that part of
paragraph Al quoted was TO enable
the land department to know, so far
as applicant can reasonably show. the
definite facts upon which the right
to the patent is predicated so as to
determine whether a valuable min
eral deposit exists In the land claim

In 1901, when General Palmer re.

he distributed among 103 officers and
other employees of the Rio Grande
Western railroad $l.O00,OOO in the com

the company. The stock which con.

Death For Kissing.

In ancient Egypt it was consid-
cred a high degree of politeness to
kiss ones hand and then place it On
the top of the head.
Men of rank occasionally kissed
each other, but in the land Of the
pharaohs no man ever dreamed OF
kissing q woman.
In Rome kissing was at one time
a serious matter. If slave kissed
a free woman he was liable to be
torn to pieces by wild horses.
It was the great Cato who pro-
mulgated a law making it punish
able offensc for parents to kiss in
the presence of their children.
