REQUIREMENTS OF
THE SUCCESSION TAX.
Other State Corporations Called by
Tax Commissioner William n. Corbin

Hartford, Conn, March 6.-Tax
Commissioner William III. Corbin has
called the attention of the banks and
other corporations of the state to the
requirements OF the succession tax in
a letter which is in part as follows:
Some of the judges of probate of
the state, when ancillary adninistra-
tion has been granted, have not re-
quired an inventory of the personal
property actually or constructively in
this state belonging to the estates of
nonresident decedents. Such proper
ty, therefore, in such cases has not
been included for imposition of the
succession tax.
lit has heretofore been customary
for the banks and other corporations
to accept a certified copy of the ap-
pointment of the ancilliary administra-
tor as evidence that the property un-
der their control had been included in
the inventory.
In view of the above, however, it
seems necessary to request that con-
sent for the transfer of savings bank
deposits, contents OF safe deposit box
es, or shares of stock and registered
bonds, be secured from the judge of
probate who granted the ancilliary ad-
"The public acts of 1909 removed the
exem ption on all property passing to
collateral beneficiaries or strangers to
the blood. This renders any deposit
liable to a tax
Failure to abide by the provisions in
the letter lays corporation open to a
fine of three tiEnes the amount of the
succession tax that might have been
imposed

BERLIN POLICE IN
CONFLICTS WITH SOCIALISTS.
Officers Avoided Using Arms as Far
as Possible.

Berlin, March s.-Serious conflicts
between the police and socialists, in
volving a lengthy list Of wounded, were
the outcome of most impressive open
air demonstrations against the suf-
frage bill carried out in Berlin and the
other cities of Prussia today. II is
estimated that In Berlin alone 10000
persons took part in what was called a
"demonstrative stroll" in various parts
of the city.
The chief of police of Berlin. fearing
danger from the assembly of so many
thousands in the popular park of Trep-
tow, the place chosen by the socialists,
forbade a demonstration of any kind
there. But the socialist newspa per
vorwarets announced that the ma nj
fiesta ton would be held despite the or
der of prohibition. This caused the con-
cent1ation of a powerful force of armed
police and gendarmerie in Treptow
park. wf1 ich left the remainder of the
city virtunally unguarded.
The socialist leaders this morning,
observing that their plan has been
frustra ted. quietly and quickly passed
the word to their followers to proceed
to the other end of the city. These in
festants who succeeded in accomplish
ing the stroll almost undj disturbed.
while the Others who had rema ined
around Treptow park came into severe
collision with the gendarmerie and po-
lice. With serious consequences. The
police. however. in the majority Of
cases acted with the utmost nodera-
tion. obeying the orders to avoid as far
as possible using their arms, which
were issued by Chief Won Jagogv, who
recently has been much criticised for
his severity.
1t was the provincial gendarmerie
who on this occasion came into the
most serious conflict with the crowds.

THE GRAND TRUNKS
ENTRY INTO PROVIDENCE.
New Haven Roads Resistance Foeuss-
ed on Certain Features of the Charter
Bill as Already Introduced.

New Haven, March 6-While the
corning contest in the Rhode Island
legislature between the New York, New
Haven and Hartford and Grand Trunk
Railroad companies over the Grand
Trunk application for the charter of
a new line to. Providence eXcites much
interest in railroad circles here, the
situation within \ few days appears
to have appreciably relaxed. 1t Is al
most certain that the New Haven will
not oppose strongly. if at ALL the
Grand Trunks application for an ordi-
nary railroad charter in Rhode Island,
but Will focus its resistance on certain
features of the charter bill as already
introduced. The New TIaven's most
specific objection in the charter feat
ures are to grade crossing provisions,
general extension privileges in upper
Rhode Island, and most strenuously of
all to the paragraph of the charter
which confers on the Grand Trunk
rights of using the New Haven's rail-
road and terminal plants in Rhode Is
land. On the foregoing provisions the
coming battle in Rhode Island of the
two great companies will almost GER
tainly be Joined.
Railroad men here in a position to
know the facts believe that the final
outcome of the controversy, whether
the charter is granted or not, viii be a
compromise of the dispute and its set
tHenent by some sort of a traffic agree
ment under which the Grand Trunk
will obtain larger business than here
tofore from the New Haven company,
and be in less danger of the diversion
of New England business to the Cana
dian Pacific. In this connection ii is
recalled that last spring. as publish
ed at the time a tentative offer was
made to the New Haven by the Grand
Trunk suggesting the surrender of the
New London Northern line to the New
Haven in return for an arrangement
for an exchange of business on the On
tario and Western and practically thus
an all rail access of the Grand Trunk
to New York city. 1t was then the
New Haven's all rail arrangement with
the Canadian Pacific which made the
situation acute and led to the Grand
Trunks substitution of its own boats
on Long Island Sound for those of the
New Haven company. That situation
now in certain aspects repeats itself in
Rohde Island.
AS regards the Grand Trunks proposed
extension from Palmer. Mass. to Prov
idence, the New Haven railroad ex-
perts allege that it will be an expen-
sive line to build and with high grades
impafring its freight capacity. The en-
gineering details are likely to be one
of the features of the presentation OF
tits case by the New Haven to the
Rhode Island legislature, but with the
greater sterss laid on the features nam
ed of the proposed charter.

WORK OF MEDIATION BOARD
IN THE 3. g. Q. TROUBLES.
Prospect of a Peaceful Settlement is
Not Din1n1ed.


Baltimore, March -Sphynx-like
silence is still maintained, in accord
ance with an agreement, by all con-
cerned touching the progress of the
board of mediation, composed of Chair
man Knapp of the interstate commerce
commission and Commissioner of La
Dor Neill, in their efforts to adjust the
differences between the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad and it's conductors and
trainmen relative to wages and service
conditions. There was today what was
said to be a most unusual event. a
Sunday conference concerning the dis
pute. 1t was between Commissioner
Neill and representatives of the con-
ductors and trainmen and it lasted
about four hours.
While nothing specific is obtainable
as to the progress of the work of the
board of mediation, it may be said
that the prospect OF a peaceful settle
ment satisfactory to both sides is at
least as bright as it was yesterday or
has vet been.

The traction company. which operat-
ed some 500 cars during the day. left
200 or more of them in operation to-
night-the first Sunday night during
the strike on which it has taken this
step.
This fact probably had much to do
with the disturbances of the evening
These began early after dark at Eighth
and Christian streete, an Italian settle
ment where an unruly mob stoned
passing trolley cars. The trouble grew
quickly in proportions, and when the
police reserves from four stations were
unable to qUeH the disturbance a riot
call was sent out, and four automo-
biles loaded with officers speeded from
City hall.
Number of Heads Broken.
This force was effective, and after
a sharp attack, in which clubs were
freely used and a number of heads
were broken the disturbers were dis
persed. More than half a dozen pris-
onerE were taken, including the police
say, the three ringleaders of the trou-
BILE, who were caught with bricks in
their hands.
The most serious affair of the night
occurred a little further down Chris
tian street, at Fourth street. During a
disturbance there a fireman doing po-
lice duty fired on the crowd and a bull
let struck Bessie Weiner a woman OF
%, fatally wounding her. The fireman
was guarding a car which the crowd
attacked.
Women Participated in Outbreak.
A shot was fired during another dis
turbance at 26th street and Lehigh
avenue, one man being slightly injured
when a bullet struck him in the arm
The trouble there was quickly quelled.
A demonstration by a disorderly crowd
at Sixth and Jackson streets, in the
downtown section, was threatening
for a time, and reserves had to be call
ed out at This and other points to queIl
fncipient rioting. In the Kensington
or factory section there was a rather
threatening outbreak, in which women
participated. In queiling 1t the police
nTade several arrests, and four of their
prisoners were women charged with
inciting to riot
In suppressing the various disturb
ances the police made more than twen-
ty prisoners.
