\ Washington, March 12.- Because
millionaires retire from active busi-
ness and come to the national capital
to live-or rather, die-and are en-
abled to escape various forms of taxa
tion in the District of Columbia, Rep
resentative Miller, Republican, today
introduced bill providing for an in
heritance tax in the district.
The bill requiring compulsory pub
licity for campaign contributions and
expenses was reported out to- by
the house committee on elections of
president, vice president and members
Of congress, with favorable recon-
mendation. The bill was introduced
by Representative Mccall, Republican,
of Massachusetts.
Action was accomplished only after
p ointment men who have been advo-
Gates of the measure had brought much
pressure to bear. The bill had been in
the committees hands since the session
began.
The administration railroad bill was
amended today in the senate commit
tee on commerce so as to make COM
mercial or market valuation of rail-
road properties by the Interstate Com
merce commission condition preced-
ent to the merging, consolidation or
reorganization of roads subject to the

Washington, March 10 = Proposed
changes of laws concerning passenger
transportation between Hawaii and the
United States evoked lively interest al
meeting today of the house commit.
tee on merchant marine. Delegate
Kalanianaole, of Hawaii, George B.
Mcclellan, representing the merchants
of that territory and the board of trade
of Honolulu, spoke for the bill. Repre-
sentative Kahn of California, Patrick
Flynn, of the Seamen's union of San
Francisco, and William F. Yates, pres
ident of the National association OF
Marine Engineers, opposed the meas
ure.
The rocky road that stertches ahead
of the proposed $50, 600, 900 bond issue
to enable the completion of reclama-
tion projects in the West became visi-
BILE at today's hearing on the bills be-
fore the house committee on ways and
means.
Mondell of Wyoming, argued for his
bill, which is one of number before
the committee. The Carter bill, which
authorizes the issuance of $50, 900, 0OO
worth of certificates of indebtedness
instead of bond issue, is also pend
ing. The Carter bill has already
passed the senate, but has struck a
snag in the house committee.
Hearing on the Lafean apple-box bill
was continued today before the house
committee on agriculture, but it was
not concluded.

tion of the Oregon method of packing,

Dying negro IS
HANGED BY MOB
Filled With Cocaine or Whiskey, He
Tried to Murder Several Promi-
nent White Citizens.
Special to The NeacS.

Special to The Neics.
Durant, Miss, June 17.-With one
bullet through his brain and another
through his body, and struggling in
the last throes of death, Otto Mitchell,
negro, was hanged to a telegraph
pole in the very heart of the town in
broad daylight by mob of about six
ty of the leading citizens at high noon
Wednesday.
The negro had attempted to kill
three white men, at whom he had shot
only a few minutes before on the
street ..I
Drunk on cocaine or blind-tiger
whiskey, the negro staggered on the
streets with double-barreled shot
gun, avowed his purpose to clean up
the town" and "get him a white man"
before dark.
Reaching Main street, he reeled in
front of City Marshal ]. S. Kealhofer's
store, where he found Mr.. Kealhofer,
his father and Night Waterman ]. D.
Causey engaged in conversation.
Without giving them warning the
negro raised his gun and exploded
both barrels at once, the double load
going Immediately over their heads
about one foot and into the store. 1t
was a miracle that all three were not
killed instantly.
Mr.. Causey was the only member of
the party armed, and, drawing his re-
volver he fired twice at Mitchell, hit
ting him both times and dropping him
to the ground. The first shot went
into the negro's brain and the second
into his body.
A crowd quickly gathered and It
was but the work of minute to get
a rope, place a nose around the neck
of the dying negro and draw his form
up to the arm Of a telegraph pole.
