INCOME TAX NEXT
That Feature of Tariff Bill
=
Reached Tomorrow.
Movement to Free List All
Table Products Grows.

Washington. June 26.-Opposition to
the recommendation of the senate
finance committee majority for coun-
tervailine duty on wheat and flour was
afoot today when the Democrat caucus
resumed work on the tariff bill.
Opponents of the countervailing duty
contend there is no necessity for
retaliatory tariff on agricultural pro-
ducts. if thev are to be free listed and
that If any free listed agricultural pro-
ducts are to be restricted, all should be.
Schedules remaining today to be
passed upon. besides agriculture, were
silks, liquor, pulp and paper, sundries
and free list. 1t is believed however,
that all can be disposed of by tomor
row when the administrative features
and income tax may be taken up.
During the discussion today, a well
defined movement developed to put all
table products on the free list.
Butter three cents a pound in the
Underwood bill, was cut by the senate
finance to 21a cents. The caucus rati-
fed that. but later brought it up and
several senators urged it to be put on
the free list. Various senators proposed
to also put all breadstuffs, cheese,
beans, beets peas and other vegeta bles
on the free list.

Currency Measure Ready for
Introduction in House.
Original Provision for Retir-
ing Bank Notes Replaced.

Washington. June 26.-Final revi-
sion of the administration currency
bin was made today by Representa-
tive Glass preparatory to its lntroduc-
tion in the house. The original pro-
vision for the retirement of the present
national bank notes and their replace
uant by the new federal reserve notes,
in addition to the $500,000,000 of re-
serve notes authorized by the bill, was
replaced The provision allowing
country banks to deposit part OF
their reserves was revised, and the
federal regional banks were given the
authority to fix the rate of discount
subject to the approval of the reserve
board.
National bank notes now outstand-
ing would be retired within maxi
mum of 20 years. Additional reserve
currency might be issued above the
s5OO,OOO,O0O limit to take their places
The reserve provision now would
require country banks to keep per
cent of their reserves in their own
vaults and 3 per cent at the regional
reserve bank. The other per cent.
at banks option might be deposited
with the regional bank or go to a cor
respondent in a central reserve cur
rency. with the approval of the fed
era1 reserve board.
Chairman Glass declared no change
in the provision for the size and APP
pointment of the federal reserve board
would be made.

HIGH PHONE RATES.
Wichita AppeaIes to Utilities Commits

The city of Wichita today appealed to

lief from the exorbitant rates. which
is cleaimed are charged phone users
by the Missouri kansas company
which absorbed the Wichita Independ-
ent company and Immediately hoisted
rates to subscribers to an amount in
excess of that permitted by city or
dinance.
There has been trouble over the teIe-
phone rates in Wichita for several
months, the petition alleges. In 1911
the Missouri-Kansas company, owned
by the Bell interests. absorbed the in
dependent company. There was an i'm
mediate increase of rates. These rates
were in excess of the amount permitted
by city ordinance but il is claimed that
the Bell people have refused to observe
the provisions of the ordinance and are
now operating in violation of the anti
trust laws and in restraint of trade
through their monopoly of the Wichita
telephone business.
rate of $3.50 month to business houses
and $3.50 a month to residences This
ordinance was seemingly never obserV-
ed. After the consolidate ton of the two
companies the special line business rate
was increased from So to 81. the two
party business rate raised from $3.50 to
50. four-party business rates raised
from 81 to $3.50. special line residence
rates raised from $50 to 81, two-party
81 so and the four party residence line
rates jumped from 81 to S1.25 The
town now asks the utilities commits
sion to interfere and to regulate the
rates in conformity with the provisions
of the municipal ordinances.

In the meantime, another clash of
arms. fierce but of short duration. had
occurred at the other extreme of the
line Lee had ordered Ewell to attack
Cemetery Hill, Just south of Gettys-
burg. and Cups Hill, nearby, held by
SIocum. who had been weakened by
the sending of a large portion of his
Twelfth corps to the assistance of the
left wing. EweH ordered Early with
one division to attack Cemetery Hill,
and johnson with another to attack
Culp's Hill. After a bloody struggle,
lasting into the night, the Confederate
forces were repulsed, with great loss
of life to both sides. The Confederates,
however, TOOK possession of an aban-
doned portion of Culp's Hill.
Thus closed the second days battle
at Gettysburg. The Union loss in the
two days fighting had exceeded 10000
men; the Confederate loss was almost
as heavy. The Union lines were prac-
ticalIy unbroken. That night Lee and

In the valley below, the battle con-

terrific fury. Sickles' whole line was
pressed back. Scores of brave officers
and thousands of men were killed, and
Sickles' leg was shattered by a shell,
