COLLECTORS TO
RECEIVE A MUCH
SMALLER SALARY
THAN AMOUNT AS REPORTED
Six Deputies in Georgia Are
Busy

Mr.. L. R. Cooley, of Americas, who
has succeeded to the office of district
deputy revenue collector of this dis
trict, is now busy with his official du-
ties, this being the busy season with
the six Georgia collectors. Collector
Cooley has headquarters in the post
office building, and can always be
found there when not looking after
Uncle Sans business in this large ter
ritory.
Mr. Cooley's district extends from
Fort Valley to Florida, north AMI
south, and from the Georgia Southern
& Florida railway as an eastern boun-
Diary line to the Chattahoochee river
on the west side.
The report which has reached Geos-
gia that the deputy collectors of the
internal revenue department who are
to have charge of the collection of tn :
income tax are to receive a salary CT
$500 each, proves to be mistake.
The error grew out of the fact that
from the appropriation for collecting
the income tax the treasury depart
ment has set apart $500 for each o:
six deputy collectors for Georgia 1t
turns out that this sum, however, is to
pay their travelling and other expenses
as we'll as their salaries.
The bill, which provides for those OF
ficers also provides that in no case
shall either one receive more personal
compensation than that now paid to
deputy collectors, which is limited to
$1,400 each, so that the salaries to be
paid will not exceed 81 400 and if the
$1,000 does not pay subsistence ard
travelling expenses and leave the $1,40O
they will receive less than 81 400 each
themselves.

ANKLES ARE BOUND TIGHT
IN The new FALL GOWNS

While weather conditions have ap-
parently eliminated the diaphanouS
and slit skirt effects in fall designs
the predominating tendency is to eve
narrower skirts than those which the
modistes displayed during the sum
mer season. One of the latest designs
for afternoon wear is gathered at the
waist slightly and draped in trent n
cross effect with loose em5rci5erY
trimming at the height of the -nee.
The bodice, made with an open neck,
is drawn closely about the bust an /
trimmed with a similar embroidery II
that worn on the skirt The sleeves
are Of kimono design and edged with
face. The collar is trimmed with the
same lace. The only other decoration
consists of the buttons, which are GOV
cred with the dress material and set
off by silk loops.
Charmeuse is the most popular ma
terial for such a gown, and gray >
the predominating color. The wearers
of such a dress, to make II cir cos
tunes most effective, usually disport
small hats of the turban style, whi'a
are crowned with notwithstanding
ostrich plumes.

TAssocrkrED- PRESS prsPATcH1

CINCINNATI. May 1.-Two men and one youth were slightly injured and twentysiX men arrested this af ternOon charged with disorderly con duct as a result of an attempt to interfere with the operation of one of the lines of the traction company whose employees are on strike. The demonstration occurred in the heart Of the business district. It was pre- cipitated, it is stated, by boys over turning a large garbage can in front of a Clifton car. A large crowd had assembled to witness the parade of the labor unions in sympathy with the strikers when it was rumored a motorman on the car struck the boy with a club and a violent demon stration started.
 Mounted police rode into the crowd. rescued the crew of the car and drove the mob back to the sidewalks. No shots were fired, but missiles of various kinds were thrown. In the afternoon, hundreds congregated about the scene and hooted the non-union employees. From time to time the police made arrests of the more vio- lent members of the crowd. Attempts were made to interefere with the run ming of cars by blocking the tracks with wagons. but the traffic. officers kept the right of way clear.
 As darkness approached, the cars were withdrawn and tonight the tie up was as complete as it has been since the strike began.
 About seven thousand five hundred were in line in the parade of the labor unions to the Cincinnati ball park, where speeches were made by the union leaders.
 Mayor Hunt and officials of busi- ness organizations made an unsuc- cessful attempt to bring about a set tlement of the strike

The President and Cabinet Spend Two Hours in Dis cussing Document Pre- pared by John B. Moore of State Department
AWAIT ACTION
 BY JOHNSON
In the Meantime Army and Navy Officials Are Avoid ing Issuing Any Orders Which Might Be Con strued AntagOnistic
IAssocIATEp PRESS DIsPATcHl

IAssoCIATED PRESS DIsPATCHl
 WASHINGTON, May 16-A tenta- tive draft of the reply of the United States to the Japanese protest against the California land legislation pre- sellor for the state department was considered for two hours today by the president and his cabinet No intimation of it's nature was made public. Secretary Bryan positively refused to discuss either the pro- posed reply or Japan's protest.
 The secretary made a statement de- precating the efforts to guess at the varying phases of the official nego- tiations, declaring that serious mis- chief might result and a satisfactory conclusion be retarded or prevented He referred to the fact that his pres ent position obliged him to reverse his usual attitude toward the public in the discussion of current issues.
 There are inklings that the state department is awaiting final action by Governor Johnson on the alien land bill either in the hope that at the last moment he might change his mind and veto the measure, or more probably for the purpose of having the approved act a basis of dis cussiOn.
 The Japanese government Is like wise awaiting the governors action with the keenest interest, indicating another move to forward the nego- tiations as soon as the bill s signed. While protesting against the Califor mia legislation Japan has so far sug gested no remedy That is left en- tirely to the United States as it is believed here that even the idea of instituting proceedings to test the validity of the law may be abandoned.
 In the meanwhile taking their cue from the presidents statement last night regarding military and naval movements officials of both the war and navy departments today are en- deavoring to avoid issuing orders or statements that would contribute to sensational reports of undue actiYi- ties in their departments. A number of army officers were ordered to Hawaii, but only to rejoin their com mands in conformity with the law. limiting the length of detached ser vice the officers may have before re- suming active duty.
 At the navy department Secretary Daniels positively denied any con- nection between the few naval move ments recorded the last twenty-four hours and the Japanese situation. He took pains to point out the depart ure yesterday from San Pedro for San Francisco of the big armored cruiser Maryland was simply a con- tinuation of the tests being made by the vessels with POcahOntas coal which was arranged by the navy de- partment a month ago The Mary land will end her coal tests at the San Francisco navy department and he stated he did not intend to send any vessels from the Atlantic to the Pacific side of the continent at this juncture.
