All! A MAXIM SILENcER

AsheVille, N. c., Dec. 1.-Two
deaf and dumb gossips, as proficient
by the twitchings of their fingers as
if they could speak, are being sought
today in the serious shooting of Mrs.
]. A. Allen, by her husband, both also
deaf and dumb. Mrs. Allen, with
few deft twists Of her fingers, has
placed her husband in Jail, where he
passes the matter off lightly with one
hand. He said the two sound-proof
guests became so garrulous before
the quarrel they almost sprained
their wrists.

ings, most of them little children,
would not have been sacrificed at an
hour when the doctrine of peace on
earth, good will toward men," was
being spread among them.
1--WE ask for a federal investiga-
ton because we believe the constitu-
tional and almost every other right
which every American persons is sup
posed to enjoy, has been trampled
under foot. Men are denied their
right to organize, have been held in
peonage and assaulted in govern
ment postofices. Believing that these
constitute federal questions, we de-
mand federal investigation"
The victims of the Christmas Eve
panic will be buried Sunday after
noon, following simultaneous serv-
ices in nine churches of different de-
nominations.

labor MASS MEETING

Tomorrow afternoon at 2:3o
o'clock a union labor mass meeting
will be held at Musicians Hall, ITS
West Washington street, to take ac-
ton on the deportation of President
Meyer.
The meeting will be addressed by
President John n. Walker of the I'LL
nois Federation of Miners, Yanco
Terzich of the executive board of the
Western Federation of Miners, and by
President Chas. H. Meyer, if he is
physically able to be present and talk.

the miners to avenge the outrage on
Meyer and Tanner.
Iron Mountain from where Meyer
sent his telegram to Riley late last
night, is not far south of Calumet.
No word has been received from
Meyer since, though the wires have
been kept hot with messages trying
to locate him. 1t is expected that he
will come on to Chicago or return to
Calumet
A wire from Denver to The Day
Book quotes Ernest Mills, secretary
of the Western Federation of Miners
as follows: I
They'll never keep Meyer out of
Calumet or any city by threats. He
will go back as sure as he lives to
show them he's no coward if for no
other purpose. Meyer was to have
reached Denver in a few days to at
tend a board meeting of the fedora
ton. 1t will probably be delayed"
A wire from Lansing, Mich, says
Gov. Ferris was routed out of his bed
at 3 o'clock this morning to get. tele-
grams from Federation officers at
Calumet telling him about the kid
mapping. He, wouldn't say anything,
but was expected to wire instructions
to the military captain in charge at
Calumet today. Ferris has been prac-
tically asleep ever since the strike
started, and is noted for his lack of |
backbone and his passive good inten-
lions. ST.. 1883. $780,
Previous to his deportation, Presi-
dent Meyer, answering an inquiry as
to his reasons for demanding a fed |
eraI inquiry, rather than state or
county, into the Red Jacket disaster, |
dictated the following statement:
For five months we have pleaded |
for a state investigation. We have
urged the state attorneys to with
draw from this district the hundreds |

COMPLEXITIES IN
Of INCOME
Questions About New laws
Meaning Answered by
Legal Expert.
BY cHARLEs A. eRopEk

Member of the New York Bar Association,
New York city.
= 7 has been estimated that the in
come tax law will directly affect
more than half a million citizens
and aliens. Probably millions will
be indirectly affected in one way or
another by the provisions of the law
for payment of the tax "at the source"
In addition to those directly and indi-
rectly affected, there are many who
will be concerned to know whether or
not they come within the provisions Of
the new law. In the light of more
than twenty years experience in han
ding tax questions from the legal
standpoint, | have sought to set down
the questions which would naturally
come to the mind Of the inquiring citi-
zen and to set down briefly and In sim
pie language the answers to such ques-
lions.
