KANSAS CITY CATTLE MARKET

KANSAS CITY CATTLE MARKET. Kansas City Stock Yards, Dec. 15, 1913 The beef market took turn for the better last week, and all kinds of cattle sold shade higher.
 There was no marked advance, but the fooling was more settled, and buyers actions denoted broader beef outlet. Increased imports from Argentina were reported with the first
 direct ship load consignment, but as the stuff belonged to the packers of this country, it was handled in such manner as not to injure the beef market any more than necessary. Re ceipts today are extra heavy at most markets, and part of the gain noted last week has been dissipated. The market is steady to fifteen lower, plain middle grade killing steers re- ceivfng least support. Some fancy mixed yearlings sold at g .25, straight yearling steers at $9. %, and heavy steers at $S. .75. Steers selling at S7. 50 to SS 25 move slowest tdoay. Cows and heifers are largely steady, and this class of cattle have been the
 best sellers for two weeks or more. Good choice COWS bring $6.25 to ST., and veal calves reached $11 again to- day, same as last week. Forty three cars of quarantine cattle came in to- day made up largely of two to four car shipments of meal fed steers of middle class, selling at $6. % to S6.- 75. Stockers and feeders sold strong last week, and they are in fair de mand today at prices about like last Monday Top cattle for the coun- try sell at $7.00 to $7. 50, servicable animals at $6 25 to $6.75 which are about a quarter lower than year

AMERICAN LIVES
|N.GRAVE PERIL AS
TOWN IS SHELLED
Dominican Gunboats Fire on
Puerta Plata, Stronghold
of Revolutionary Forces.
u. S. WARSHIP ON WAY
TO SCENE OF ENGAGEMENT
VeIasquez, Former Provisional
President, Believed to Be
Head of Uprising.

WASHINGTON, Sept S.-Puerto
Plata, in the Dominican Republic,
where 4 revolution is in progress, is
being shelled by Dominican gunnoats,
with great danger to American lives
and property.
Jose M. Esteva. American vice-con-
sui there, so reported today.
The sunboat Des Moines Is on the
way there.
The Des Moines is today at Guam
tanamo coaling for the run to Puerto
Plata, where she is due tomorrow.
Puerto Plata has been in the hands
of the Dominican rebels ever since the
latest revolution started with the an
nouncement of the governor that the
State had seeded from all allegiance
to the Central government.
The present danger to Americans
and their property comes from the
attempt of the Dominican govern
ment to force the rebel stronghold to
capitulate.
Until the receipt of today's dis
patch state department officials had
not thought the f1are-up would be
serious. The supposed leader of the
uprising is Hector Velasquez, one
time provisional president tf the re-
public.
So far as naval authorities here are
informed the dominican navy con-
sists of two or three converted yachts
armed with six-pounders and ma
chine guns. They could cause enor-
nous damage to an unfortified towr
like Puerto Plata, especially since II
Is largely of wooden construction an6
might easily be set afire.
American interests in Puerto Plata
are small. though number of Porte
Ricans recently have entered the
business community there. Warrant
for Intervention by Commander An.
drew P. Long. of the Des Moines
would be found in any action or
either side interfering with the oper.
ton of the customs house under
American supervision and control.
1t Is expected that Commander
Long will insist that hostilities b,
conducted outside the limits of tn,
town.
The reason for the revolt agains
to be founded upon the objections
of Governor Sespedes. of the Provinc'
of Puerto Plata, against the attempts
of the general government to wres
control from the provisional officers
of the government railroad from
Puerto Plata to San Diego. which
has figured frequently in the poll
tics of the island.

man Edward w. Townsend today
that he had given orders to. expedite

Uncertainty as to the space that

the matters that is delaying the
plans, according to Mr.. McAdoo
Estimates for this work are beins
made up, and it is figured that the
income tax will probably double the
work of the collectors office. which
will be located in the new building

CITY TAX RATE
MAY SHOW TWO
POINT DECREASE
Board of Assessment and Re.
vision Will Name 2.02
as 1913 Figure.

The Board of Assessment and Re-
vision of Taxes has about completed
the complex task of fixing the tax
rate for the current year, and the
mystic figures will be 2.o2 unless
something unforeseen bobs up between
now and IL o'clock tomorrow, noon.
1t has been hard and trying job.
as the commissioners have laborei
with the single purposes of SO adj
justing a standard that the taxpay-
ers will eventually benefit, and the
necessity for continual revision of
ratables and rates will not exist
Last years rate was 204 BY dill
gent exertion and spurred on by the
State Board of Taxation, the local
authorities attempted to comply with
the demands of the latter, while not
placing too heavy burden on the
taxpayers.
The cities ratables are about 1896, :
100000, and it is the reasonable cal.
culation, the taxing officials say that
the natural growth of the city, dur
ing the period from now until next
taxing time. will add from $4,000, 900
to s15.000,0OO to these figures.
This would have the effect of re-
ducing the tax rate for next year
eight or ten points, without advanc-
ing ratables fixed this year.
The State Board of Taxation has
put 1t up to the local board In 8
way that could not be considered
mild that Newark property was be.
ing under valued, and insisted that
there should be an increase in val
uations and bona fide valuations
at that. No forced sale" or "sale
under the hammer" figures, but the
real value under normal conditions
If the step was not taken the State
board would have few sharp words
to say.
So, in considering the proposition,
sections like Forest Hill and Clinton
Hill, with their handsome resi-
dences, whose value is visible to the
naked eye and where ''he who ran
could read" were treated largely, as
the State board hinted they should
be treated.
In the central and business Sec
tions, where revenue-receiving and
recommending property abounds
advances were made on the basis of
real and apparent value. Sections
where the middle classes reside and
where it was found of worth and in
come features, did not warrant a
decided jump, proper discrimination
was shown.

SENATE MAY PASS
TARIFF BILL TODAY
Upper House to Stay in Ses-
sion Until Vote Is
Reached.

WASHINGTON. Sept. S.-The DEM
ocratic tariff bill introduced by Ma
jority Leader Underwood five months
ago and passed by the House four
months ago today, may pass the SEN
ate before adjournment tonight
When the measure was called up early
today by Chairman Simmons, Of the
finance committee. it was the inten-
tion to hold the Senate In session until
a vote was reached.
Leaders of both sides agreed that
the bill surely would be reported back
to the House some time tomorrow.
In conference the measure is expected
to be debated less than two weeks.
Senator Norris, Progressive Repub-
lican, called up his tax amendment
proposing a tax on inheritances
graduated from l per cent. on s5O,0Oo
up to 70 per cent. on bequests exceed
ing $4,000, 700. He said 1t was de-
signed to break up immense fortunes.
Senator Clapp. Progressive Repub-
lican, said he would support the
amendment, although he believed the
time had come when government
should go further and not allow
people of great wealth like the Astors
to take what does not belong to
them from the people"
Senator Norris took the case OF
Vincent Astor to illustrate the effect
of his amendment The young Astor
he said, did nothing to accumulate
the fortune of $S0,000,0 900 he received
from his father
Under this proposed amendment. =
said Senator Norris, "the tax Vim
cent Astor would pay to the govern
ment would be s43.799500. He would
then have more than ss6. 6.Oo0,o0o tipped
into his lap, a fortune made from
millions of people of the United
States, a fortune accumulated with
out an effort of his hand or brain.
Such a tax would not be robbing Mr.
Astor.'
Senator Dillingham's amendment
to turn back each States income tax
for good roads, with the provision
that each State appropriate a like
amount, was lost. Foreign books
were returned to the free list as
originally provided by the House
Senator Smoot moved to reduce the
duty on cut, but not set diamonds.
pearls and other precious stones from
90 per cent. to 10 per cent. He said
that he would not object to the high
duty were 1t possible to collect it
and prevent smuggling.

immigration Officials to Decide
Whether She Is an Un-

WASHINGTON. Sept. s.-Before
Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst, leader of
the British militant suffragists. can
be admitted to the United States in
October. the time set in the latest
announcements for her coming, the
immigration authorities will decide
whether any of the acts for which
she has been imprisoned in England
constitute moral turpitude within the
meaning of the law and make her an
undesirable alien.
She will be detained at whatever
port she lands. but whether. event
ually, she may be permitted to enter.
cannot be foretold. To the immigra-
tion authorities Mrs. Pankhurst's
visit presents at this time purely a
hypothetical question. and they de-
cline to pass upon it in advance.
Officials of the department of labor
now are seeking all obtainable in
formation concerning the British
suffragists militant activities that
may have a legal bearing upon her
right to admission to the United
States.
