1t Was That Of George Lelber
Of Schenectady, N. I.
LAD HAD BEEN MURDERED
Identification Made To-day and Autopsy,
Which Was Completed Yesterday,
Showed That Death Was Due
to Carbolic Poisoning.

Albany, N. Y, Jan. b. Relatives to-
day identified the body OF the five year
old boy, found Wednesday in a swamp
near the western outskirts Of the city,
as that Of George Lelber Of Schenectady
who had been missing from home for
two weeks. The Identification was
made by pair OF shoes, marked
"Georgie,' which fitted the feet OF the
boy.
The autopsy. which was completed
yesterday afternoon, showed that death
was due to carbolie acid poisoning, there
being very little evidence Of strangu-
lation Burns on the face and head
were taken to indicate that the boy
struggled in the hands of his captors
while they were trying TO force the
acid down his throat.
DIR. 0rdway, director. of the lsbora
tory where the stomach of the boy was
taken for analysis, is of the opinion
that the boy had been dead three days
when found. He declares the murder
was committed only short time be-
fore the body was laid on the ground,
where it was found, because the blood
when thawed out was fluid and not clot-
ted.
The police heard last evening that a
woman with child answering the de-
seription OF the dead boy had been seen
in the local pharmacy where the acid
was bought last Friday The proprietor
however, denies that he knows when be
sold the acid or to whom he gave il.

FAvoRS AMENDMENT.
Congressman Foster Urges Vermont to
Adopt Proposal.

Burlington, Jan. l3.-Congressman ID
J. Foster, who was home to attend the
state dairymen's convention this week
came out in favor Of the income taS
amendment to the United States cou-
stitution and be declared that he hoped
the Vermont legislature would adopt
the resolution.
Congressman Foster said in part as
follows:
at should be iterated and reiterat
ed that this amendment simply gives
Congress the power to assess an income
tax, With the Senate made up exclus.
lively OF representatives Of the states
ii seems To me that we can rely upon
it, IN case it should be deemed wise at
any time TO levy such a tax to safe
guard the interests of the states and
to except from the effect of the pro-
posed law all incomes derived from
state securities. And it seems to me
that as Congress is made up Of repre-
sentatives OF the people and Of the
states, there need be no apprehension
that an income tax of any sort will be
levied except in case of great emergency,
unless the people demand such tax.
IF. as we go on, it is found that
we cannot raise sufficient revenue
through the ordinary methods Of tar.
iff on imports and internal revenue, and
the people should desire to try the
methods of an income tax Congress
ought to comply with the will Of the
people.
In my opinion it is just and fair
method Of taxation, certainly more just
just and fair than the present ma
tional corporation tax. For this, in
effect, is tax on the income derived
from corporations. One man, as own
er of corporation, must pay tax
based upon the net income of his cor
poration for the support Of the ma.
tional government, His neighbor, con.
Quoting similar business which Is not
corporation, is not required to pay
tax. This is not equal taxation.

amount than agriculture.
In advising federation of organlza-
tions, Professor Hills said that there are
now more than 20 of them in the state
This is not a modern way of doing
business, For greater strength and ef
ficieney new body should be formed
Of representatives of the other bodies

tions are now in existence IN New York,

Such an alliance would be powerful
enough to secure for Vermont's agri-
cultural interests a sufficient appropria-
tion. Professor Hills advocated agri-
cultural extension. lie said that the
colleges should get outside Of their
walls and reach the people in their own
homes.
