OBJECT TO PUBLICITY OF
The NEW EXCISE TAX LAW
Merchants and Corporations Are Pre-
pared to Fight Publicity Clause
May Carry Battle to the
Courts of Illinois.

Chicago, Jan. ia systematic
campaign for the repeal of the publl-
city feature OF the new corporation
excise tax law is to be launched at a
meeting to be held here tomorrow Of
representatives of manufacturers and
commercial organizations throughout
the West. The conference, which was
called by the Illinois Manufacturers
association, will agree upon plans for
united action in the fight against the
publicity clause, to which objection
has been made by corporations
throughout the country.
The campaign against the publicity
clause is likely to assume a legal phase
since many eminent lawyers have ex-
pressed the opinion that there are
several grounds on which the new law
may be attacked in the courts. The
chief claim is that it is unconstitutional
because it discriminates between cor
porations in the matter of earnings.

servative Governments
Liberal.
Years. Months.
Total duration of Lib
eral Governments ..... AZ


London, Jan. 13.-The 7,7O5,717 cleo
tors in Great Britain today begin to
express their political preferences and
on their verdict depends the fate of
the Liberal Government and other
things that are regarded as OF even
greater Importance, such as the pro-
posed curtailment of the power of the
| House of Lords and the future tariff
policy OF the nation. The political
struggle, which originated last No
vember with the unprecedented action
! OF the House of Lords in refusing its
consent to the governments budget, -
| in many respects the most interest
ing i'm the parliamentary history of
| England.
Although this was the first polling
day. the battle of the ballots will not
be on in earnest until Saturday, when
the voting is to take place in Lon
don. Parliamentary London is regard
ed as the vortex of the struggle. The
metropolis sends sixty-two members
to the House of Commons. AS conse-
quence the question of the hour is,
will London vote Tory or Liberal? The
Tories have waged campaign of un-
precedented vigor and outside the
centers of radical policies It appears
to be generally felt that London will
vote for tariff reform and the House
of Lords.
In addition to London several other
large centers are to have their cleo
tions Saturday. Among these are
Manchester and Stafford, which in 1906
under winston Churchilrs personal
championship. gave Radicalism a tre-
mendous start. BY the first OF the
week it is believed that the general
result will be pretty clear, though the
whole of the seven and half mill
lion electors will not finish polling
until two weeks hence.
The political prophets are busy es-
timating the likely losses and gains
though there never was an election
Il Is probable, in which such esti-
mates were more likely to be upset.
A point on which most politicians
are agreed is that the Unionists stand
n good show of materially improving
their position. They cannot fail TO
lave many victories. and they are
likely to have few defeats. The qucs-
ton is whether they will make suf-
ficient gains to place them in power.
At present the state of parties is as
follows: Ministerialists, Ss5; Labor
members. "a: Nationalists, SO; Union
lists. 16s. AS the Nationalists and
Labor members are regarded as the
allies OF the Government, the Union
lists. In order to obtain bare ma
iority must win as many more seats
as they now hold. namely 16s.
| Since the injection of the Home
Rule issue into the campaign Ireland
regards the present election as the
most important since 1886. The strug-
gle has acted as a vigorous incentive
IN the cause of Ireland's independence.
Ireland will cast 100000 votes. which
Is only little less than the number
of Scottish electors.

HFINzE TO FACE
new INDICTMENT
Attorneys for montana Copper
King" Move to Have Pro-
ceedings Quashed.
MAY HAVE TO STAND TRIAL
Case Against Heinze is Similar to
that for Which Morse Was SEN
tenced Week Ago-Sensation
al Exposures Promised.

New York, Jan. 13.-If the motion
made today by attorneys for +. Aug
ustus Heinze 70 have the indictment
against him quashed is overruled, then
the Montana copper king, who, with
Charles w Morse, has been held by
many as being chiefly responsible for
the troubles Of the banking communi-
ty during the panic of 1907. viii have
to stand trial on charges very similar
in their nature to those which landed
Morse in the Atlanta penitentiary a
week ago.
When the original Indictments
against him were wiped out last sum-
mer it looked as though Heinze was
TO fare better than Morse in fighting
the attempt of the Federal authorities
to hold him responsible for what he
did while president of the Mercantile
National Bank. But while the origin
al attempts of the Government TO get
Heize behind prison bars were demol-
ished by the decision handed down by
Judge Hough, a new indictment was
soon returned in which Heinze was
accused Of misapplication of funds Of
the Mercantile National bank.
If the court fails To grant the motion
made today TO quash the indictment
Heinze will be placed on trial at an
early date on a charge of discounting
HIS own note for 100000 without any
collateral behind il. But Heinze's
lawyers say they can show that
there was collateral behind the note
to four times the amount. They also
hint that If Heinze is brought to trial
the defence will spring some sensa-
tional exposures involving transac-
tions and persons high in the financial
world.
