NEW FIGHT EXPECTED
 WITHIN THREE MONTHS
Unionist Whip Retired and Strong Tariff RefOrmer Is Named to Take Up
 the Burden


 LONDON. July 12.-In political cir eles rumor has it that the coRstitu- tional difficulty will not be settled without another general election. and that this will come sooner than has been expected; possibly within two or three months
 The rumor Is more readily believed in unionist than in liberal quar- ters, and nothing definite can be ascsrtained on the subject: but the uAionist party is putting it's house in order so as to be in readiness for all emergencies.
 Tke greatest dissatisfaction has been openly expressed within the unioRist ranks since their last de feat at tke polls at the party organ nation. and a committee sat for some time to investigate the matter One result of these deliberations is that the chief whip of the party is to retire and a new post is to be ere a,sd, that of chief organizer"
 For this office, Arthur Steel-Mait- hand, member of parliament for East Birmingham. has been chosen. He is one of the rising hopes of the unionist party, and a strong tor if reforner. He has been president of the famous oxford union, and also secretary to Austen Chamber lain His selection to ill such an important post shows that the pro tectionist wing of the party is still the most influential
 The coronation honors' list pro vides for the deceat retirement of the party whip. Sir Arthur Acland- Hood. who receives a peerage and goes to the upper house. His sue cessor as chief whip is another young and popular member Of the party. Lord Bzlearres, member for the Chorley division of. Lancashide.
 Attack on the King.
 A most remarkable attack was made on the king. charging his maj esty with exagserating the military aspect of the coronation, by Rev. Harry Youlden, the clergyman who occupies the pulpit from which pr. Aked. since of New York and San Francisco, formerly preached in Liv- erpooL
 The attack took the form of an open letter read in the course Of a sermon. It began as follows: We owe you no loyalty except so far as the welfare of the nation depends on you If we are cold amid the general excitement of your coronation day, it Is because we are not con- vincsd that the greatest duty of the nation is bound up with the throne We are not revolutionaries. There are grayer matters to attend to than the absurdity of royal ceremonies have said this much for the sake oi sincerity, and that l might clear my self of the company of those whc are now grovelling before you and behaving ike pagans before a fet ish"
 Then the letter goes on: Would it make your coronation less req if you were accompanied to th' abbey by men from the forge ana the mine instead of by troops? Al though you choose to live for th' werld of soldiery. not by tnem | your throne supported. t is opel to you to be a patron of the arts You have bestowed henors which VI

WHAT THE DEMOCRATIC
 HOUSE SHOULD DO

President Taft desires that the extra session of Congress shall confine itself to acceptance of Canadian reciprocity and the creation of a permanent tariff board. and that tariff revision be with held until the tariff board shall re- port.
 There is no certainty that the Dem ocratic House will vote for such a tariff board, unless 1t can be assured in advance that the members shall be impartial experts instead of mere rep resentatfves of the greater beneficiar- ies of high tariff.
 Even should it consent to the crea- ton of a tariff board, the House would probably proceed at once to revise at least two or three of the more obnox- ious tariff schedules. It could not, consistently with campaign pledges, await reports from the tariff board. the construction of which might cover a year Jr more.
 Democratic Representatives may hold that they are as competent to tariff revision as Republican majori- ties nave COnSlQoreQ CnenlSeIVeS CQ0Sc many years. and that they do not need the assistance of a tariff board any more than their predecessors did
 It is our belief that the Democratic House will and should, at the coming extra session, revise certain tariff schedules downward and transmit the results to the Senate. which is the most that 1t can do. If, previous to such action. the House should vote for the creation of a permanent tariff board, it would supply the Republican Senate with a plausible pretext for postponement of tariff revision down ward The Republican regulars in the Senate would say. Await the reports of the tariff board, and this would probably mean postponement of tariff revision until after the Presidential election of 1912. with an opportunity for a charge of non-fulfilment of promises by the Democratic House, and lengthy delay of relief of the people from some of the more out rageous exactions of the Aldrich tar- if

The followin~ extract from thA waalx- ly letter of Watson. Alpers & Co.,, con- tains some interesting information:
 The favorable attitud of European capital toward American securities re- ceived fresh illustration near the end of the week by the announcement that Mess. Ladenburg, Thalmann & Co., with their associates abroad, had succeeded in placing upon the Par quet, the official market of the Paris Bourse. the common stock of the Phil corporation that controls the fuel gas and traction business of the last named city and Its environs The Parquet has a monopoly of the ''of- fcial' market of the Bourse; it's mem oers, 70 ill number, guarantee each others contracts and thereby assure absolute safety for the clientele which entrusts them with investment pur- chases. The Coulisse, while influen- t1al, is an inferior market and does not possess the authority, prestige and advantages that give the Parquet the power to distribute securities so suc- cessfully among the myriad small in vestors of France. There are several American stocks listed on the Coulisse. but only two American railroad issues
 bonds of the Pennsylvania and the New Haven Railroads-are quo ed on the Parquet. The stock of the Phila- delphia Company is the first stock of a corporation of the United States to be admitted to the latter market. The incident illustrates the friendly dispo- sitfon of the French government (which must approve all admissions to the Parquet), toward this country: if 1t signifies that further listings of American securities are to be facili- tated. 1t means that the doors are at last opened for us to avail ourselves of the virtually unlimited investment resources of Nation whose frugal tty and economy create annually a larger amount of absorbing capital than is produced in any other country. The advantages to the financial and industrial development of the United States are too plain to need more than suggestion.

FEDERAL POWER OVER MILITIA
Can President Draft Them Into Ser- vice Anywhere Without Consent
 of Governors

Washington, March 21.-Talk of mobilizing a part of the National Guard as a possible third division on the Mexican border has raised the question as to the extent of President Tafts authority over the state troops. It developed conflict of opinions between the War Department and Capitol Hill authorities.
 A military official expressed the opinion that the President could not get the National Guard out of state without consulting the governor and obtaining his consent.
 Congressional authority is to the ef feet that, under a variety of condl- tions. the President not only can or der out all the guardsmen who have qualified under the Dick militia laws, but can send them to foreign lands regardless of the feelings of gover- nors.
 The first Dick bill, passed in 1903, provided that the organized militia that adopted the organization, arma- ment and discipline of the regular army, should share in a fund of $1,- 900, ,000 annually and receive, free, all the equipments of regular army sol- diers.
 The President was authorized. in case of invasion, threatened invasion, the union,' to call out the militia to serve for not more than nine months in any part of the country. He was empowered to give orders direct to officers of the militia. No mention was made of governors.
 In 1908 a Dick bill to amend the law of 1908 was passed. The annual fund was increased to $2,00O,OOO. Ad- ditional demands were also made up- on the militia. The guardsmen were required to serve for the full term of their enlistment in the militia, instead ~,Ix ,,sv, Thn a was authorized to order them to serve either within or without the territory of the United States" in- stead of only in this country as pro- vided by the original law.
 The new law stipulated that In calling out the militia the President should tissue orders for the purpose, through the governors of the states or territories of the militia as he may think proper"
 The burning question is whether submission of orders through the gov one in which they can exercise dis cretion.
 When the bill was up in the House Steenerson. (Rep. Minn.), chairman of the committee that considered 1t, said the President was authorized to enforce the laws of the union: A declaration of war is jaw. In or der to enforce such a law it might be necessary to send the militia out of the country.
 eff this bill passes" said Repre- sentative Williams, (Dem. Miss.) "the President will have the right to wage war without a declaration by Congress and send the entire militia into foreign ports to carry it on. Congress never intended to place the organized militia at the service of the President to be ordered about at his will"
 'Under this law" observe/ Sherley. (Dem. Ky), "the President could send the militia to the Philippines to- morrow"
 Despite objections the bill was rushed through and the President, on the Capitol Hill basis, seems to have full authority to create militia di- vision on the Rio Grande.

Wall Street attributes the mainte- nance of the prices of securities. in part. to increased production of gold.
 A fact. somewhat contradictory of this theory, is that prices of com nodities, outside Of those under the control of the more monopolistic trusts. are declining, particularly in breadstuffs. If the theory that the greater the amount of the precious metal In circulation. the higher must all prices be. is correct, then prices of commodities should now increase rather than decrease
 There is, however, a partial explana- ton. Adoption of the gold basis in India has caused a heavy demand for gold, and this demand Is augmented by the fact that the natives hoard the coin. Other parts of Asia, as well as Africa, are taking large amounts in gold, and it is understood that the increase in production will not any more than keep pace with the de- mand.
 Therefore. 1t is not likely that there will be any depreciation in the value of gold for some time to come, a very happy fact if thereby appreciation in the prices of commodities is pre- vented.

There being 46 States, and the Con- stitution requiring a three-fourths vote of the States, it follows that favorable action by 35 upon the constitutional amendment providing for a general income tax Is necessary for adoption. Thus far. 20 have voted for the amend ment. and the needed to effect its adoption must be secured from 20 States. some of which have already voted in the negative but can, if they choose. reverse their action.
 It should be understood that this proposed amendment does not levy the tax, but only grants permission to Congress to impose it at any time. The supporting argument is that emergencies may arise which will call for an increased revenue, and that this new source of revenue will be held in abeyance until then. But a current apprehension is that if such a new source is at hand. it will be levied upon. whether or not any ex- traordinary emergency arises.
