IN
UNITED STATES

On the original lists of corporations
believed to be subject to the tax, there
appeared the names of something over
100000 corporations, but the records
of many states had not been kept in
such manner as to show which COM
panies had completed their organiza-
tons and which had not, or which had
subsequently gone out of business, and
in many cases insufficient data were
secured to show which corporations
were exempted under the provisions
of the statute. Upon a final revision
of the lists it was found that 1852, 49O
corporations were liable to the imposi-
ton of the tax, though it is suggested
that the canvassing of districts by
revenue officers now in progress may
slightly change these figures. From
a table giving figures for corporations
of all classes for each state or terri
tory, it appears that the aggregate
capital stock of the 1852, 490 corpora
lions finding a place on the revised
list was $52,371 ,626,752. Their bonded
and other indebtedness amounted to
$S1 1888, 952,696, and their net taxable
income amounted to $3,125, 4S1 ,101 {.
The four states yielding the largest
amount of income tax in the last fiscal
year were: New York, with $3,756,S33;
Pennsylvania, with $3,244,929; Illinois
with $2,111,S65, and Ohio, with $780,
1877. Legal proceedings have been in
stituted against a small number of cor
porations which have failed to file a
proper return, or to pay an assessment
thereon. It is noted that there was
at first some delay on the part of cor
porations in making the returns owing
to the belief of some that Congress
would take action looking TO a post
ponement of the collection of the tax,
and the further belief on the part of
others that the failure of the Supreme
Court to pass on the cases instituted
to determine the constitutionality Of
the tax might in some way postpone
collection. On account of these cir
cumstances, the penalties of $4,000
collected for failure to comply with
the law imposing the tax are believed
to be al.-Bradstreet's.

"Tousel, now we're on the way
To place where strange things play
Said Sweet Slumber, "Fancyland-
That's where lives a happy band;
Here we are now, let's get out,
And we'll romp and run about
ooh look there" young Tousel cried
See that Horse Fly can ride
Goodness he is awful big
Large enough to pull rig
Butter Cups then both did see,
Churning Butter in great glee;
Climbing Vines that had no feet,
Which were running cross the street;
Bachlor Buttons and Dogs Pants,
Lady Slippers worn by Ants;
Foxgloves Toust1 tried to wear,
But he couldn't find pair -
Now, the strangest thing they found,
Was a Sandwich walking 'round)-
All these things may seem so queer,
But they're up there-never fear
Cause young Tousel saw each one,
And he had lot of fun.
(Only boys and girls, you know,
Who are good to this place go;
For, tbs said, the naughty kind
Fancyland can never find;
II you're good, why then, tonight
Maybe, you will see this sight.

Berlin Mobs Attack Churches and
 Smash Portraits of Christ.
 In series of battles in the streets of Berlin between rioting strikers and armed police more than 15O were wounded, ffty-five of them probably fatally.
 / Churches were stormed, windows smashed, residences entered and footed. street lamps torn down and the police and fire stations attacked.
 Fearing further outbreak, the gov ernment ordered troops bivouacked in the streets, which gave the city the appearance of an armed camp.
 The strikers had been muttering warlike threats for some days, but the rioting developed suddenly. A furious mob of shouting men and screaming women armed with clubs and stones and firearms charged through the streets from their secret headquarters.
 When they reached the Church of Reformation the rioters attacked the edifice. With angry shouts, they threw stones through the stained glass me morial windows, smashing the DOT traits of Christ and the Virgin Mary to fragments.
 The trouble began when striking employees of Kupfer & Co.,, coal deal CTS, attacked men whom the police were protecting. The police used their swords and revolvers, and the strikers bombarded them with stones.

 The scene of the wreck, said to be the most disastrous in the history of electric railroad operation, was eight cen miles south of Fort Wayne, seven miles from Bluffton and half mile from Kingsland The accident oc- cured on sharp curve just north of Kingsland, which prevented the crews of both cars from having warning of danger until an instant before the crash
 The cars which rushed together were an empty southbound limited, which had been dispatched to Kingsland to bring in the crowds to the Allen coun- ty fair, in progress at Fort Wayne, and a crowded northbound car bringing a holiday crowd to Fort Wayne.

Governor Hughes name was the only one mentioned for chief justice of the supreme court at the cabinet meet, ing in Washington. The governors qualifications were discussed at con siderable length, but nothing definite came from it.
 The names of several other men were taken under consideration as possibiIi- ties for other vacancies on the supreme court bench. These included United States Senator George Sutherland of Utah, Chancellor Pitney of New Jer- sey and Justice Swayze and R. V. Lin dabury, also of New Jersey.
 The consideration of these names would seem to indicate that the presi- dent desires to give the Third and Eighth judicial circuits direct repre- sentation on the supreme bench.

CHAVEZ IS FIRST
 TO FLY OVER ALPS,
Peruvian Is Dashed to Earth
 When Goal Was Near.

George Chavez, the Peruvian avia- tor, flew from Brieg, Switzerland, over the Simplon pass and arrived at Do modossola, on the Italian side of the Alps.
 Chavez thus accomplished what has been regarded as one of the most dar- ing feats proposed for the aeroplan- ists. He had waited several days for favorable weather along the route where strong winds are the rule and a few days before had made one unsuc- ressful trial.
 The distance from Brieg, Switzer- land, to Milan is seventy-fve miles, and the prize. $20,Oo0, was for the aviator who should make the first flight starting from a tableland 900 feet above the sea level at the head of the Rhone valley near Brieg.
 In alighting at Domodossola Chavez fell beneath his machine, and his in juries were such that they proved fatal.
 Both his legs were broken, his left thigh was fractured, and his body bad ly confused, but the physicians in at tendance were of the opinion that these hurts would not prove fatal, and that unless unlocked for complications en- sued Chavez would be about in two months. ..e
 The accident occurred as Chavez was endeavoring to make. a landing. The Alps had been crossed most sue cessfully, and the aviator was de- scending gracefully, with the power of his machine cut off When about thir- ty feet above the ground a sudden gust of wind seemed to catch the monoplane, which turned over and fell. carrying down Chavez with it.
 But as it turned out the unlocked for complications occurred and he died

LIFE OF EMPEROR
 WAS IN DANGER.
Plot to Kill Japanese Ruler
 Discovered In Time.

A sensation was created by the pub lication of the alleged details of plot among his own subjects to assassinate the Japanese emperor. The story ap- peared in the Hochi Shimbun of To kyo, which stated that the plotters. who are now under arrest, will be sen tenced to death after trials before special secret court.
 This is said to be the first time in the history of the country that the life of the sovereign has been plotted against by his own people and the fact known. It is understood that a rigorous censorship had prevented the publication. of soi much as a hint of the conspiracy before.
 According to the paper. the would be assassins planned to accomplish their end while the emperor was visit ing the military school just outside the capital. The plot was discovered in time to protect him, and the plot ters were seized at once. a

NEW YORK TOWNS
 FEAR WATER FAMINE
Reservoirs Are Dry and Many
 Fear Fires.

The water famine, which has been threatening a dozen towns within twenty miles of New York, has reach ed a climax With the exception of one hour on the morning of Sept. 9, the homes of 10000 people were with out a drop of water.
 The Interurban Water company, which supplies Mount Vernon, Mama roneck and Harrison, closed its pump ing station, as there was not drop of water in any of the three big res ervoirs from which the company takes its water. ..
 The famine caused a ferment among the residents of the towns. Many of them in discussing the famine were alarmed when they realized. that in case of fire they wouldn't dare waste water in putting it out. Meetings were held and plans for asking New York for permission to tap the Ken sico aqueduct were made.
 With the reservoirs of the Interur- ban company dry, the only source of water remaining is the Mamaroneck creek. This stream is also nearly dry and covered with deep green scum.
 Workmen are setting up a tempo rary pumping station to tap the Larch- mont reservoir and turn the water into the Interurban mains.
 In the meantime it is likely that the situation in the three menaced towns will become alarming. The Larchmont Water company has agreed to furnish 9,OoO,OO0 gallons to the drought stricken communities.
 New Rochelle, which is supplied by it's own company, still has fairly good supply of water in its reservoirs and wells. It is possible that the sup ply will be tapped in case of need.
 The high school and the other schools in Mount Vernon and other towns in the famine districts were closed and the pupils sent home be- cause there was no water for drinking.

FOUND LIGHTKEEPER DEAD.
New Haven Harbor Navigators Mar
 rowIy Escape Trouble.

When the steamboat Richard Peck tried to make it's way into the harbor of New Haven, COpn., it nearly lost its bearings. The light at the end of Long wharf was unit, but the. steam boat found its way to the dock with out going ashore.
 An investigation was started, and John Wilson, son of the lighthouse keeper, immediately rowed out to the light. Young Wilson groped his way along to the lighthouse and, entering it, stumbled over the body of his fath- CT, Thomas Wilson, lying among the machinery near the ladder. It was clear that he had started to climb the lighthouse belfry and had been strick- en with heart disease. He was fifty eight years old and had been an em- plOyee of the government twenty years.
