GOULD INTERESTS TO BUILD
FEEDERS FOR WESTERN LINE

San Francisco, Cal. July 1S.-More
money, lots of it-and more feeders for
the Western Pacific railroad are the
first things to be got following its
consolidation into unified management
with the Denver and Rio Grande and
the Missouri Pacific railroads Benja-
min +. Bush, president of the two lat
ter roads. when he arrived here. with
a staff Of railroad officials, thus out
lined the beginning of his policy
The Western Pacific has got to have
money" he said. "and We all know the
money market is tight Just the same.
I raised upwards of $40. 900, 900 for the
Missouri Pacific and Rio Grande under
far more discouraging conditions, and
I don't think there are going to be any
tremendous obstacles in the path of
getting enough money money for the
Western Pacific.
THE road now resembles a bridge
from Salt Lake to San Francisco. It
hasn't any feeders. We propose to build
feeders for it."

tensive Development.
PUMP IRRIGATION
BELIEVED PROBABLE

A LAMOGORDO, N. NJ, July 1s.-
n Changes in the management Of
the Alamogordo Improvement
company, the original owner and pro-
moter of this city, will it is said, mean
much towards the development of the.
company's interests as well as the ma
terial development of the Sacramento
valley. It is now talked that it is the
intention of the new manager, Col w
r. Edison to develop small tracts of
land adjacent to the city by the instala-
ton of pumping plants. These tracts
will be sold and others developed as
rapidly as possible. AS the company
owns the electric light and power plant
it is thought that in this connection
electricity will be the motive power
for the operation of the plants. Moth
ing definite along this line has been
given out as yet, but from the fact
that Col. Edison was formerly con-
nected with the company in the ca
pacity to which he is now coming. and
understands the possibilities and needs
of the valley, much credence is given
by local people to the report. Enterpris-
ing citizens of this city have already
planned such move and some definite
steps were taken along the lines pro-
posed.
From development made on a small
scale 1t has been known for some time
that the pumping proposition prevails
throughout the valley west of this city

al fatally, today in a headon collis-
ion between two interurban electric
trains of the San Francisco, Napa and

The work of eXtricating the passen-
gers, some dead and others severely

tinued until late this afternoon. Ow-
ing to the manner in which both
trains telescoped it was extremely diff
ficult to eXtricate some of the passen-

Committee STRIKES
OUT PROVISIONS
Commission of Branches
Will Revise the Admins
trative Features of Bill.
TAX CLAUSE FINISHED
Proposed Power of Secretary of Treas.
ury is Stricken
Out.

Washington. June 19-The Senate
Finance Committee today set its fate
against innovation in the administra-
tive provision of the tariff law and
struck out large part of the new ma
terial incorporated in the Underwood
bill. In order that the objections of
the House to this wholesale slaughter
could be met, the committee adopted
an amendment providing for a joint
commission of members of the Senate
Finance Committee which shall under
take general revision of the admins
trative provisions. This means that
new laws on this subject will be in
troduced in the next session of Con-
gress.
The income tax paragraph was prac-
tically completed at the night session
and the bill was in shape for presen-
tation to the Democratic caucus Fri
day morning, when the committee ad-
journed. The most important change
the Democrats will be asked to ap-
prove is one making concessions to the
man of family who has greater bur-
dens on his income than single man.
The dumping clause was eliminatde
although the adoption of a slight tax
to goods offered in the American mar
ketS lower than abroad is retained
The proposed power of the secretary
of the treasury to determine the exist
ence of foreign market was stricken
out. The committee paid no attention
whatever to the suggestions of the
treasury department and department
of justice, that authority be given the
secretary of the treasury to fix valua-
tons of goods imported under ad va
loren rates. Contingent fees in Gus
toms cases have been made unlawful.
The paragraph which gives United
States customs officials inquisitorial
powers with respect to the private ac-
counts of domestic and foreign ship
pers was stricken out.
An important addition to the bill
was made in an amendment giving the
president the power to impose retalia-
tory duties on certain articles when
foreign competitors attempt to di.
criminate against American goods.
