LONDON, June 9.-Fearing possible

considering the adyisability of pro-
hibiting great public funeral which

the Northumberland suffragette who
died late yesterday at EPSON cottage

received when attempted to grasp
the bride Of the kings horse at lass

the woman said they were planning
the biggest funeral London ever saw,
not excepting that of the late King
Edward. They said they would make
Miss Dawson the most impressive OBJ
1ect lesson Great Britain has had for
generation, bringing home to every

them almost hysterical, are consider

Social and Political union when Miss
Davison's mad act at Epson Downs
was first announced was the attitude
of the mi1itants today. Then they
did not know Emily Davidson. They
had never heard of her and were sure
she was not member Of the union

Taxing Your
Income.

What would you think Of an
income tax equal to the amount
of money you waste each year
by careless buying?
The sum would startle many
of us who are not considered
extravagant in the common ac-
ceptance of the word. And yet
we 60 along the even tenor of
our way, happy that we have
enough to live on and little
to spare, perhaps.
But, aside from extrava-
gances as such, are you taxing
your income more than you
should in your everyday pur-
chasing OF the necessaries of
life? That is tie Important
question.
1t is SO easy for us Ameri-
cans to indulge in careless buy
ing that 1t behooves all Of us
to pay attention to what we
buy and where we buy it. We
must make our dollars work for
us 100 per cent. or we are tax
ing our incomes constantly.

Peace Conference Adjourned

LONDON, June 9.-It was semi-offi-
cially announced that the outlook in
the Balkans was very promising when
the st. James palace peace confer
ence adjourned today after session
lasting three hours and half in
which Servia did not participate. 1t
was the final session of the plenipo-
tentaries and will not meet again TN
less the powers bring about renewal
of negotiations. When adjournment
was taken many of the important
points were unsettled and the ENJOYS
agreed to leave their adjustment to
their respective governments. On May
so the representative of Turkey and
the four Balkan states: Greece, Bull
garia, Montenegro and Servia signed
a preliminary peace pact which was
then believed to have ended the strife
In the Balkans. The articles OF agree
ment were those drawn up by the
ambassadors of the great powers and
covered only the most important
points such as the autonomy Of
Albania, the disposition of conquered
territory and the ownership Of the
Aegean Islands. The settlement OF
minute details was left to the peace
plenipotentiaries. For more than a
week they held daily sittings in st.
James palace and failed to agree on
ANYTHING of Importance. Turkey and
Greece failed to reach an understand

ward ironing out the respective diff
ferences between Servia and Bulgaria

fered has disclosed activity by inter-

ton OF their kind that the committee
feels must consider in It's recommen.
dations. although the lobbying is per
fectly honest.
So far the committee has developed
these facts That there are lobbies
operating throughout the country and
lively fighting the tariff bill with
their representatives In Washington.
That lobbyists are spending vast
sums Of money.
That ex-congressmen as legal aids
to big business corporations are using

er members to solicit individual aid
OF legislators.
That business, civic and labor or
ganizations have flooded their con-
gressmen with written protests
against certain schedules OF the tariff.
In addition the committee has
amassed an enormous amount Of
hearsay evidence indicating that near
ly every big bill pending is being
pushed or opposed by some individual,
or organization.
Senator Sutherland OF Utah, the
nrst witness, confessed to miscella-
neous holdings that ranged from $500
shares OF mining stock worth FIVE
cents share to 1850 shares OF stock
in the Amalgamated Sugar company
and Utah-1daho Sugar company worth
$40 per share. Notwithstanding my
! interest In the beet sugar industry I
shall vote for protection on sugar
and protection on other duties" said
the witness. Il believe in protection.
l came here because I believed In It.
Sutherland said that withholding his
vote for duty on sugar because he was
interested would be "a piece OF hypo-
critical affectation.'

growers association and Jas. n. Moyle

democrat, Sutherland said were his

representatives of the Seamens
unions, Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers and the Federation OF

| lobbyists. Their business Is entirely
legitimate, Sutherland added. Senator
Reed OF Missouri could ember
only few Of his tariff callers, inclnd-
ing M. w. Fordyce Of Missouri, on
cotton bagging and Colonel Fleming
of Missouri and Thos. w. Blackburn
of Omaha, on Insurance matters. No

WASHINGTON, June 9.-President
Wilson today gave vent to hallelujahs
ever his expose of the tariff lobby.
He told newspaper men at the semi.
weekly audience that his message on
the insiduous lobby had already been
OF grea. effect. He said the results
even thus far would surely relieve
him and congress OF great burden.
That many lobbyists have already
been literally run out of washington
Is believed by the president. He de-
clared he thought the breed, would
be rather scarce in the future, at
least during the present tariff session
of congress. Intimations of Senator
Townsend that the big stick" OF pat
ronage Is being used by the president
to lobby" for his tariff convictions
were ignored. the president emphat'c c.
ally stated. He does not deem that
Townsend's statement constitutes a
direct charge necessitating a reply.
President Wilson has little hope
for Immediate action on currency leg
islation. He said he contemplates
further conferences with currency
leaders in congress before sending his
message and adopting general plan
for the proposed bill. The president
said he was undecided whether the
elastic currency should be based upon
United States notes or those of ma
tional banks. Other important fea-
lures the legislative declared had not
been determined upon sufficiently to
write into the bill.
The reply of the United States to
the rejoinder of Japan in the Cali
fornia land dispute is now being franz
ed, the president stated. John Bas-
sett Moore, counselor, is writing the
reply. The president thought 1t i'm
probable today that the note would be
submitted to Ambassador Chinda this

The president expects certain inter
