INCOME TAX RULING MADE
Oath as to Income to Be Equivalent
to Inventory Under New
Tax Law.

Washington, Jan. 1.-"f a corpora
ton, through its books or otherwise,
can ascertain it's income sufficiently
for the officers TO take oath to the
return as true, this will be regarded
as equivalent to an inventory, and a
physical inventory need not be taken.
1T is realized, however. that in the
cases of many corporations income for
the calendar year cannot be ascertain
ed without taking a physical inven-
tory at the end Of the calendar year,
and, the law being explicit both as to
the period and the income, where such
income cannot be ascertained without
a physical inventory, this will have
to be taken"
These are opinions from the in
ternaI revenue Office in response to in
quiries from corporations which find
themselves embarrassed in making
returns because their fiscal year is not
cOterminOus with the calendar year.
The law provides that returns on
which the one per cent. tax is to be
paid are to be made as of the end of
the calendar year.

BANKER TRASK DIES IN WRECK
NEW YORK FINANCIER is
CRUSHED IN SLEEPER.
Fast Freight Crashes Into Fast Mon
treal Express Train--TWo
Others Hurt.

New York, Jan. spencer Trask,
the head of a firm Of bankers, which
for many years acted as fiscal agents
of the late Queen Victoria, was
crushed to death in his private com
partment while returning to New York

negro porter were injured.
Mr.. Trask's compartment was at the
rear Of the last car, sleeper. The
train, known as the Montreal express,
of the New York Central, halted near
Croton, N. Y, and was supposedly
protected from the rear BY the block
signal system, but it had 49, 1ly come
to stop when heavy freight struck
it from behind with great force. The
rear Of Mr.. Trask's car was battered
in and the front end of 1t telescoped
with the sleeping car ahead.
Many of the occupants of the five
sleepers had not fully dressed, and
they were precipitated, half clad, into
snowbanks, with the temperature far
below the freezing point.

FRUIT EXCHANGE
MEN INDICTED
Combination to Control Produce
Price Is Charge.
TWO PACKERS ARE INCLUDED
Secretary of Association Admits Or
ganization Makes Quotations
Daily, But Says They Are
Not Binding.

Kansas City, Mo-, Jan. 1.-The three
officers and six members of the board
of directors of the Kansas City Fruit
and Produce exchange were indicted
by the Jackson county grand jury.
The indictments charge that the
members of the exchange are in a
combination to control the price of
butter, eggs, potatoes and other food
stuffs on the Kansas City market.
Packers ALSO Arc Defendants.
Ray Storms, representative of Swift
& Co., and John Hoagland, represen-
tative of Armour Packing Company,
also were indicted.
Both of these companies were
members Of the exchange until ten
days ago. Swift & Co. withdrew from
the exchange last week, but the Ar
mour Packing Company still is a
member of the exchange. That will
make no difference with the indict-
ment, as Swift & Co. had been mem
Der of the exchange for a long time.
Prices Not Binding, Is Defense.
"The exchange does not try to con-
troll the prices of foodstuffs in Kansas
City," G. M. Marston, secretary Of the
exchange, said when told of the grand
jury's action. There is one thing
that might look little bad The ex-
change does make prices or quota
tons not based on actual sales, but
nothing out of the way is intended by
the exchange. The quotations are
made for the guidance of the market

BANK ROBBERS SHOT DOWN
TWO ARE DEAD AND ONE IN JAIL
- WOUNDED.
Five Bandits Attempt to Rob Post
Office and Are Run Down by
Posse.

Guthrie, Okla, Jan. l. Five men
who intended to rob the three banks
and the post Office at Harrah, Okla,
ran into a posse headed by United
States Marshal Jack Alternately. AS
result, two of the bandits are dead,
one is in jail at Guthrie, wounded,
and two others are being pursued by
posse.
Frank Quigg was shot down during
the fight with the posse and instantly
killed. He lived in Atchison, Kan,
and was the son of wealthy mother.
Frank Carpenter, another of the rob-
bers, was wounded during the fight,
and died in Jail here. ]. G. Dilbeck,
the third bandit, was only slightly
hurt.
The robbery was well planned, but
Carpenter made the mistake of tell
ing a number of persons of the plot.
In this way, post office inspectors
learned of the plans. Marshal Aber-
nathy was notified, and when the
robbers reached the bank he was
ready for them. The posse caught the
men in the act of breaking in the rear
door Of the bank
Carpenter admitted to Marshal Abb
ernathy they had planned to rob the
banks and the post Office. He said
Red Rogers and Pearl Wilson were
the men who escaped. He and his as
sociates, he said, robbed the Golden
(Col.) post Office a few weeks ago
of $4,000.

TWENTY MEN ARE
HURLED TO DEATH
False Structure of Bridge
Knocked Out by Ice.
70 ARE THROWN INTO RIVER
Heroes Make Brave Rescue of Fifty
from SwlrIing Waters-Property
Loss Estimated at
$25o,ooo.

St. Louis, Jan. Twenty men
were hurled probably to their death,
when 300 feet of the false structure
of the Mckinley bridge, now under
construction across the Mississippi
river, was knocked out by an ice jam
Fifty Are Rescued.
Seventy men in all were thrown
into the maelstrom of ice, broken
timbers and Orders. Fifty of them
were rescued from the icy water by
heroic men, who faced death in the
swirling river.
Three hosting engines and trav-
eler also went down in the crash, i'm
Ieriling the lives of the struggling
men below.
The bridge company officials say
that it will be impossible to reckon
the toll of lives taken until the pay
roll is checked over. From the stories
CT those men who were rescued it
seems probable that between fifteen
and twenty of the 70 who were thrown
into the river were drowned. There
remains the slight possibility that
some of the men secured footing on
the ice foes and either succeeded in
reaching the bank or were swept
away down the river to die by freez-
ing.
1870 at Work on Structure.
One hundred and thirty men were
at work on the structure when the
jam began to move. Sixty Of them
heard the warning snap Of the tim
bers in time to escape to the steel
work.
Capt. John Short, in charge of a
tug and two barges, frozen in, picked
up 40 of the men and got them ashore,
after a two-hour battle with the ice.
The property loss is estimated at
$250,000 and completion Of the bridge
will be delayed several months. The
bridge is being built by the Illinois
Traction system.

Fad For Miniatures Set In Rings.

1t being esta blished that fads are
fashionable, it is cause of thankful
ness when the passing fancy is one
that has charm. That of wearing min
iature portraits in rings certainly is an
attractive one. Bracelets containing
miniatures were worn by fashionable
women many years ago. and the ring
fad itself really is only revival Of an
old custom. That the rings are of ne
cessity large is the only objection to
the fad. This fashion is not confined
to women. for men also have taken
kindly to it.
