FATHER DALTON
CAUSED FOUR
HUNDRED TO WEO

Kansas City, Dec. 12.-"Out OF H.
01O letters received from all parts Of
the globe, 400 marriages have been ac-
Complshed," was the report issued
today by Father William J. Dalton, of
the Church of the AnnunciatiOn, con-
cerning the work of a matrimonial
bureau and board by the church a
year ago. Letters came from Jeru'
salem, from Constantinople, from At
RIGA and South America, and nearly
every state in the union" The report
continued:
Il have kept two stenographers busy
ans wering them. When ] receive a
letter asking for mate of certaiu
qualifications. | refer the writer to
one in the same section of the coun-
try who will come up to the require
ments.
Nearly IS per cent Of letters receiv-
ed We're from women, according to
Father Dalton. A majority OF the wO-
men set forth wealth as a qualification
for an acceptable husband, while not
one man asked for a wife with wealth.
The bureau grew out of a gathering
Of unmarried young men and women
of the parish in the priests parlor
last December at which Father Dal-
ton suggested that there were too
many single young people in the par.
ish who might as well be married.

PRIMER LESSONS ON
A TAXATION SYSTEM

There are two classes of property
fixed property and movable property
Movable property always seeks anc
locates on fixed property. 1t is one Of
the rules of the game and so long as
fixed property is not a menace to
movable property it is certain to come.
The greatest movable property is
money and the greatest fixed property
is real estate and all that goes with
real estate which means, minerals, Wa
ters, timbers and other so-caIIed
natural resources. In preparing a
taxation system which will encourage
the coming of movable property, it
must be admitted that any tax that is
injurious to movable property is in
furious to the state because movable
property can move whereas fixed prop
erty can not move. The way to de-
veIop fixed property to its fullest value
is to tax it in just proportion to NOV
able property because fixed property
can not be developed without NOV
able property and movable property
can not develop except where it is
given adequate rights. In other words,
we can not expect to develop natural
resources unless we can show in
vestors, homeseekers, tourists-in
fact, all legitimate business that it
can have honest treatment in our
state and that one and all will receive
the same treatment. That is the fun
oamental of all taxation and es-
pecially is it fundamental in New
Mexico where we are SO richly endow-
ed by nature. The man who escapes
his just share of taxation on such
basis is an enemy to any state be-
cause he retards development. He is
speculation in the heritage of the
people.

WALL STREET

New York, Dec. 12.-ln spite Of fur
ther heavy pressure against Union
Pacific the stock market in general
was more stable during the first ses-
sion today. Traders were still AT a
loss to account for the selling OF
Union Pacific but the effect Of the
break was restricted principally to a
few speculative stocks and there was
no recurrence Of the widespread liqui-
dation in high grade investment is
sues. When il was demonstrated that
the general list was showing better
resistance, bull traders grew more
confident and began to absorb stocks
on a risking scale. Shorts also beat
a retreat which became a rout as the
price of Union Pacific rose with a
rush, Jumping as much as Il point be-
tween sales until it touched 1876 u as
compared with $50 3-4 early and 1J5
at yesterdays close. There We're ad-
vances Of | to points over last night
in such stocks as Canadian Pacific,
Pacific, Lehish Valley, Steel, and
Southern Pacific. Bonds were firm.
Speculation having returned to
something like a normal basis, fiuc-
tuations became moderate and aside
from some irregularity in Union Pa
cifc and Reading, the market was
cOmmOnDlace
While there were pauseS in the
afternoon advance. due to the cOmplet
ion Of the urgent covering in some
stocks and profit taking, the trend was
upward and the average level more
than a point above yesterdays close.
The market closed easy. Realization
made more of an impression on the
market as the day drew to an end
and prices fell in an orderly fashion
or moderate offerings. Most of the
leaders ruled point or more below
the best.

BARRY oHSKED ABOUT
UNION FUNDS 7ODA 7

They told me there was TO be big
dcings in Los Angeles and lots o
money for the work said the wit
ness. Brown entered a denial Of the
charges.
Before the explosion on the bridge
construction in Kansas City, on Aug
ust -, 1910, Brown testified, he wrote
letters to J. J. Mcnamara, explaining
the work was to be done by an open
shop contractor and asking for as
sistanca from the international union
as it was too big to handle locally.
McNamaras' reply, ito hinder theil
work as much as possible Brown
sail meant to organize the non-union
men on the Job. After iiOckin visited
Kansas City the problem OF unlonlZlng
the men. the witness said, was turn
ed over to the international union.
That resulted in dissatisfaction
among the local members. who would
not trust him, Brown said.
Brown said he first learned the
cause of the bridge explosion on
hearing McManigals confession at the
trial here. Cross-eXamined Brown
was asked about letters he received
from ]. ]. Mcnamara. One of these
read: "The least there is said and
the least there is written, the better
for all concerned in the long run"
Brown. denying it, referred to dy-
co,,,;+C ,lOtc coid ii was abcut DlanS
10 unonize non-union jobs without
allowing the contractors to know of
it.
Wasn't it fact that you expected
that bridge explosion and you arrang-
ed to prove ar alibi?"
III is not So replied Brown.
= About i've weeks later you heard
CT the Los Angeles Times building eX,
plosion didn't you?''
Yes
And knowing of other explosions
you assisted in raising the McNa-
mara defense fund?'
Yes"
Michael J. Hannon, Scranton. Pa,
a former Iron Workers business
agent, next testified in his own behalf.
Confronted by his letters to Nc
Namara, Harmon was permitted to an
swer whether he was sorry he wrote
them.
Yes, was sorry wrote them and
| am sorry now,' he replied

Indianapols, Ind, Dec. 12.-Whether
he knew that $4,000 of the lnterna-
tional Association of Bridge and Struc-
tural Iron Workers funds We're eN'
pended for dynamite and miro
clycerin and to pay the salaries OF
dynamters" was asked by the govern
meut in its cross-examination Of John
II. Barry. St Louis at the dynamite
conspiracy trial today.
/ As vice president of the union ana
a member of the executive board, Bar
nv testified he audited the accounts
OF John j. Mcnamara, the secretary.
He asserted he never traced the i1nal
use Of money paid to Mcnamara
Frank G.. Webb. New York, and Her
bert :. Hockin, which the government
charges was used for dynamite.
DO you know that while you were
auditing the unions accounts $1,000
was expended for dynamite, and for
hiring dynamters?" asked District At
torney Miller.
Il never heard of it." said Barry.
Barry said he visited Steubenville,
Ohio, three weeks before an eXplos-
ion there in June, 1909, and when he
was asked whether he had nvestiga-
ted the cause of that explosion, Ches-
ter Krum. his counsel, objected.
He may answer that question,
ruled Judge Anderson
THAT Steuhenville explosion was
similar to many others. 1t was on
a non-union job and happened during
strike which still continues. AS
this defendant was there before the
explosion, the jury should know
whether he was interested to know
the cause
Barry answered he made no investi
CATION.
Bert Brown, Kansas City, Mo-. for

was the seventeenth of the 4 de-
PENDANTS to testify. He is charged
with having met in Kansas City Jas.
B. Mcnamara the Los Angeles Times
dynamiter, and plotted the destruction
Of a bridge across the Missouri river
later partly blown up by Ortie Nc
Manigal.
A former witness who said he met
Brown in barber shop and later was
introduced to Mcnamara. had test-
fed Brown and Mcnamara tried to in
duce him to become dynamiter,
promising big rewards.

COLOEAOOANS
TO SUE RAILROADS M
FOR BOX CARS

Pueblo, Colo, Dec. l2.-t armers of
The Arkansas valley have arranged
through the Pueblo commercial club
to sue the railway companies operat-
ing through the valley for non-deliv-
cry Of freight cars. Attorneys for the
farmers have found an old law, they
say, which makes railroad companies
liable for one dollar day from the
date cars are ordered until their de-
livery. 1t is said that Kansas has the
same law and that it has been enforc-
ed in that state, causing the railroads
to hasten empty cars into Kansas,
passing through Colorado in order to
avoid payment of the damages for de-
lay. The suit has not been filed as
yet, the farmers waiting to see just
how many others wish to join them
as plaintiffs. The Arkansas valley
has had much trouble this fall ac-
cording to the farmers, in securing
enough cars to ship their produce.
