GREAT CONFUSION
OVER INCOME TAX

New York, Nov. 3.-The inaugural
ing of h income tax law was the
cause Of much confusion in the finan-
cial district today. Banking houses
and institutions which act as fiscal
agents for railroads and other corpO-
rations were busy receiving and re-
jecting coupons, the latter course be-
ing taken in cases where certificates
OF ownership were lacking.
Wal street as a whole Is in n state
OF irritation over the whole matter. its
il-feeling resulting largely from the
which, according to the street, has
several times reversed itself in Its reg
ulatiOns.
At the house Of ]. p. Morgan & Co,
the fiscal agents for many large cor
porations, coupons were being received
In large amounts subject to the latest
rules issued by Washington. A repre-
take at least a month to pay Off all
coupons presented for payment.
At the Chase National bank, which
has several thousand out-of-town cor
respondents. it was said that coupons
are not being accepted for deposit, but
only for collection. 1t was required
thai certificates accompanying the
coupons state whether the bonds
which they represent were taxable or
exempt.
The chief source of trouble is that
portion Of h law which provides for
the collection "at the source" Of the
tax on incomes derived from interest
on bonds, mortgages and certain other
obligations. Bankers and corporations
are required to withhold this tax in
making payments of interest due to
holders OF securities. More than
$4,000, 900 is due today In November
interest payments in New York. Much
of his will not be paid.

TAKE NO ACTION TO
FAVOR DISARMAMENT
Lower House of Congress
Shelves Proposition of
Naval Holiday"

Washington, Nov. "a discussion
of International disarmament was
brought up in the House today by Rep
resentative Hensley of Missouri, a
democrat, who Intellectually sought &C
ton on a resolution expressing the SEN
timent of the House for cooperation
with the naval holiday proposed by the
British lord of the admiralty, Winston
Churchill.
Representative Slayden, of Texas,
said he understood President Wilson
and Secretary Bryan We're in accord
with the idea and Representative
Mann, of Illinois, the republican leader,
while objecting to a vote until more
members We're present, said he favored
it as a means of saving millions of dol
lars.
Speaker Clark declared that when
the entire House membership got back
to Washington he wanted to see the
resolution passed and gave notice that
he later would deliver a speech going
over h armament situation the world
over. He declared that Germany had
been used as a raw head and bloody
bone and as a great terror to Ameri-
cans" in the past during naval de-
bates.
Action on the resolution was de-
ferred indefinitely.

LONDON PRESS SEES
BIG AMERICAN GRAB
Wilson'S Mobile Speech Inter
preted AS Expression of
Selfish Motives.

London Nov. 3.-The Outlook declares
that President Wilson's Mobile speech
means q policy of 'idealistic grab" by
which all other nations except the
United States will be shut out of the
trade of h western hemisphere
Spain from 1900 to $780," the Outlook
says, forbade all other nations to
trade with South America, which was
strictly reserved to the commercial en-
terprises of Spaniards alone. In the
year 1913 President Wilson wants to
impose a practically idential yoke of
domination on the commercial rela-
lions of the great independent COM
munities which have grown up between
the Rio Grande n the Antarctic X
tremity of the continent. The further
assurance. that the effect of the open
ing of the Panama canal would be to
abolish foreign concession hunteres in
favor of the investments of the United
States completes the exposition Of this
astounding scheme for the barefaced
appropriation of the hemisphere. 1t is
bare faced, indeed, but wildly absurd.
What everybody suspects is that be-
hind the conscious or unconscious
president there is the embattled array
of New York trusts"

RESERVE
BANKS CUT TO FOUR
Rumored President May Have
Banking Bill Sent
to Caucus.

Washington, D. c., Nov. 3.-The
senate banking and currency com
mittee tentatively agreed on four re-
glonal reserve banks for the proposed
new currency system with a proviso
that after two years the federal re-
serve board may add as many addi-
tlonal banks as it deems necessary, not
exceeding 10. The pending bill fixes
the number at ~. and it has been I'M
derstood chat the administration would
not consent to have it reduced below
nine.
The sharp reduction in the number
OF reserve banks was the first radical
amendment the committe has agreed
upon, and 1T was earnestly opposed by
the administration supporters in the
committee. Senators O'Gorman and
Hitchcock, however, voted with the five
republicans for the reduction, leaving
but five democrats, Owen, Pomerene,
Hollis, Reed and Shafroth, behind the
administration proposal. The White
House was silent as to the committees
action. 1t has been generally supposed
that the president vigorously opposed
cutting down the number below nine.
The tentative of the decision of the
Senate committee for four regional
banks developed considerable discus
sion outside the committee today.
Senators expressed wide variance Of
opinions and from the White House
came the intimation that the admins
tration feared the radical change
might encourage a concentration of
money and credit which President
Wilson and his advisers have sought
to avoid.
Senator Kern. the democratic lead
er, discouraged a persistent report
that h democrats would take the bill
into caucus and make it a party meas
ure. Senator Hoke Smith declared
that il the number of banks were ra-
ported from the committee at four the
bill probably would be amended In the
Senate.
The question Of capitalization was
reduced to two amendments, vigorous
ly debated, but not voted on.

BULGARS SEND ENVOY
TO KILL PIERRE LOTT

Paris, Nov. 3.-In order to uphold
the honor of the Bulgarian army, Lieu
tenant Torkof has been sent to Paris
by King Ferdinand on a special mis-
sion to provoke Pierre Lott to a duel.
Lott, who was in New York recently,
a been all his life a stanch defender
of the Turks and their institutions.
He was known as Turkeys press
agent in Europe" because of the vio-
lent articles he wrote daily villifying
the Bulgarian army and charging it
with barbarity and rapacity.
Torkof was granted two months
leave of absence, and with the blessing
of F~erdinand's general staff he is now
coming to have an explanation with the
famous academician with rapiers or
pistols.
How he will provoke Lott to a duel
is the one topic Of conversation in the
cafes. He nay track down the French
Turcophile to a public place and knock
him dow or he can write insulting let
tiers to him. Either would force Lott to
meet him on the field Of honor and fight
till somebody's blood flows.
