States and Carada for wage increase
and uniform working conditions We're
formulated here at the headquarters

spect to the proposition submitted by
the trainmen and Order of Railway
Conductors.
Answers received. however, did not
change the complexion Of the general
situation None granted any of the
terms proposed by the employees, but
each has, expressed a willingness to
negotiate settlement. Prospects OF
strike are considered meager. 1t

ations, which will begin at once, will
last several weeks. Points seriously

N|NE-YEln-O OLD BOY
SAVES THREE LIVES
Shows Great Presence Of Mind
During Chicago Fire.

Chicago, Jan 22.-Joseph Durkin,
nine years old, rescued three persons
from possible death in fire that
caused $4,000 damage to an apartment
building. He also alarmed the neigh
borhood and directed the fire fighting.
But in the midst of it all Joseph did
not forget his toy bank. He got it
after the three lives were saved, but
he got it just the same and carried 1t
to safety.
Joseph discovered the fire when he
went out on the second-story rear
balcony. Escape by the rear stairway
was cut off and the fire was breaking
through the rear windows.
Mildred, Joseph's five-year-old sister,
began crying when she saw smoke
coming into the room. Joseph gallant.
ly took her in his arms and staggered
down stairs, yelling fire" at the top
of his voice.
The boy then groped his way back
through the smoke filled hall to ap.
prise C. A. Saunders, fifty-two years
old, and his invalid wife, Elizabeth, OF
their danger
| A few minutes later, just as the
flames had eaten their way to the
room from which Mr.. and Mrs. Saun
ders were unable to escape on account
of their infirmities, Policemen Patrick
Leahy and William Wragg of the
Woodlawn station, hearing the shouts
of the boy, ran into the building and
carried Saunders, who was i'll in bed
and his wife to store near by.

Nelson, who is also chairman of the
committee on public lands, not to per-
NIT the inquiry to defeat or delay

ton of the public domain.
The conservation bills recommended

Trip to Alaska Unlikely.
The suggestion has been made that
make a personal inspection of the
Cunningham coal claims. 1t is not
probable that this course will be
adopted. The experts of the geolog-
ical survey will be able to furnish the
committee with conclusive information
regarding the character Of the lands
on which the Cunninghams have filed
claims and unless some unexpected
questions arise in the course of the
inquiry it is doubtful If any sessions
of the committee will be held outside
Of Washington.
Although the committee is not re-
quired to submit final report before
the close of the present congress 1t is
regarded as probable that at least a
partial report will be made near the
close of the present session. The
resolution carries an appropriation ol
$25,000 to meet the expenses of the
investigation.
It will be the aim of the inquisitors
not to follow too closely the hard and
fast rules of evidence prescribed ir
the trial of lavr suits, but to bring out
the facts in an orderly and impartia
way. An effort will be made also t.
expedite the inquiry and to this ent
daily meetings of the committee will
be held whenever this Is possible
without seriously interfering with thu
work of congress.

BOND INCOMES
HELD TAXABLE
Attorney General Wicker
sham Renders Opinion.
BANKS Hay TEST RULING

Institutions Of the Country Hold More
Than 800, 100000 In Government
Bonds as Security for Circulation
and the Corporation Tax Will Be
in Addition to the Tax Now Paid
on Such Securities.
Washington, Jan. 22-Attorney Cen
eral Wickersham has sent to the
treasury department decision which
holds, i'll substance, that the income
from United States bonds can be
taxed under the corporation tax law.
If it is upheld by the courts, and
there seems to be no doubt here that
the constitutionality of the opinion of
the attorney general will be tested In
the courts, the national banks of the
country, which alone hold more than
$700,000,000 worth Of government
bonds as security for circulation and
for government deposits, will have 10
pay tax on their income from bonds
of more than $l50,000 year.
This tax will be in addition to a
tax of one-half of l per cent on 2 per
cent bonds used for circulation, or a
/ per cent tax on bonds used for cir
culation which pay a higher rate OF
interest The basis for the opinion
rendered by Mr.. WicAersham appears
to be an attempt to justify the exist
ence of the corporation tax amend
ment to the tariff bill Us an attempt
to levy an excise tax, pure and simple.
Reasons for the Decision.
It is pointed out that this tax is in
tended to be a tax on the net incomes
of corporations, in excess of $4,000 FOL
the privilege given them OF doing bust
ness as corporations. Ii any item O
gross income is excluded from consid
Grafton. say authorities in the treasury
department, the proposed tax will no
legally be an excise tax, but direc
tax
Inasmuch as a direct tax cannot b.
constitutionally laid except by appor
tionment among the states according
to population the corporation tax viii
fail If it cannot be proved to be an ex
else tax.
The opinion of the attorney genera
is rendered in the face of a statut
which says that United States bond
shall not be subject to federal taxa
tion as such. The distinction whicl
the attorney general makes in his dc
cision is that the corporation tax /
not laid on the bonds themselves bu
on the income from them.

Departure of Miss de Janon

Postponed

CHICAGO, Jan. 12.-The departure of
Roberta de Janon, the Philadelphia heir
ess, and Frederick Cohen, the waiter with
whom she eloped, was postponed just be-
fore train time until tomorrow.
The desire Of Miss de Janons relatives
to avoid a sensational reception of the
clippers upon their arrival at their home
city is believed to be the reason for the
delay.
The young heiress still insists that she
/. will defend Cohen if she is called upon
to testify She also says that it is her
intention to ask her grandfather TO aid
Cohen financially, which request, she as
serts, will no doubt be granted.
Il do not want Frederick to suffer for
this" she says, las it was all my fault.

his freedom"
FATHER WIRES FORGIVENESS.
CHICAGO, Jan. 12-Late last night
Roberta de Janon, surrounded by other
inmates of the Harrison street annex,
opened and read aloud the following tel
egram from her father, the first word
she had heard from him since her elope-
ment:
"Overjoyed to know my darling little
daughter is coming back to me. All is
forgiven. Wire time and road you are
coming on so L can meet you at some
point between Chicago and Philadel-
phia. Answer prepaid"
NEW YORK, Jan. 12.-Ferdinand de
Janon, father of the young Philadelphia
heiress who was arrested by the Chica-
go police following her elopement with
Frederic Cohen, a hotel waiter, has gone
TO Philadelphia to await the girls re-
turn from Chicago.
II am making no attempt to conceal
my delight at the prospect of Roberta's
return" he said before leaving New
York. IT cannot yet say what my att
tude toward Cohen will be. But 1 think
that his relations with my daughter have
been absolutely honorable. Her letters
and her actions show that.
Il think the experience will be a lesson
to Roberta. 1 can only attribute her ac-
ton to an unwillingness to be torn away
from her grandfather and mo. She would
have liked the school to which We pro-
posed sending her. She wanted to do
something that would show us that she
was not inclined to CO."
The plans for the return of Roberta
were again changed by the police. and 1t
was announced she would leave for Phil
adelphia with the detectives at 3.15 O'Clock
today. The Philadelphia detectives finish
ed redeeming some of the jewelry the
girl had pawned. Cohen today met Miss
de Janon for the first time since his ar
rest. He pinched her cheek, and said:
II see by the papers that you appear to
think more of your dog than you do of
me-"
WHY, that is untrue" replied Miss de
Janon. You know l don't"

years." said Cohen, but l don't care.

HARMON FAVORS PROBE
into HIGH FOOD PRICES

COLUMBUS, Ohio. Jan. Ex-Governor
Harmon sent to the legislature today
his message concerning the high price of
foodstuffs and the ACCESSIBILITY of a leg
islative investigation thereof. He adds
interest TO the message by suggesting
that laws enacted by congress may be re-
sponsihle in measure for the trouble and
asking an investigation of this point,
The message says:
ITO the General Assembly: There
have been rapid and continuous advances
in price of the various articles which
make up the needs of every household.
and further advances are expected. The
result is pinching and often prlvation
everywhere, except among the relatively
few whose incomes greatly exceed their
living expenses and even these are made
less able and willing to help the poor and
needy.
There is a widespread belief that.
among the causes of this. combinations
and conspiraces to stifle competition and
advance prices figure largely. This be-
lief is apparently justified by the various
differences between the prices paid to
farmers, cattle raisers and other pro-
ducers and those paid by consumers to
the dealers from whom they directly re-
ceive their supplies. 1t is currently re-
ported, too, on the statements of such
dealers and other. authority that the
prices at which they sell are fixed by
those from whom they buy, with threats
of cutting off further dealings If the
prices so fixed are not maintained.
81 feel that this subject is one which
should be promptly and thoroughly in
quired into. If it be found that there are
laws which put the people in the power
OF men who thrive by taking advantage
of their necessities, or that there is a
lack OF proper laws to prevent such inn
positions or that existing laws to that
end are not duly enforced, in either case
the Inc ans of relief are in your power.
Or, If tie fault lies partly in the laws of
congress. your judgment to their effect
on Tie people of Ohio will have great
weight.
II respectfully recommend that a joint
committee be appointed with all neces-
sary POWERS for a thorough investiga-
tion."
