Receiver Laing Thinks the Two Dis

VIII Show Increases.

Receiver j. D. Laing is now busy
footing up the county tax returns.
He does not expect thel aggregate
values to show much, if any, in
crease, owing to the business and f.
nancial stringency which has prevail
ed in this section since last fall.
He is satisfied, however, that two
districts-Parrott and Brentwood
will show increases in their tax
values. These towns have been
steadily growing, and in both of
them a new bank has been opened
and brick business houses erected.

Federal Protection for Express Ship
mentS.

The first violation OF the new federal
law-known as the Carlin act, was the
stealing of an express package in one
of the Chicago depots resulting in the
arrest of the offender and placing him
under a $4,000 bail.
This act imposes a maximum fine of
$4,000 or Imprisonment Of not more
than ten years for any person convict
ed of unlawfully breaking into any
railway car contaiping interstate or
foreign shipments of freight or ex-
press or of stealing or obtaining by
fraud or deception from any car, depot
platform, vessel or wharf any freight,
express or baggage which constitutes
or is part of any interstate or foreign
shipment. While the Carlin act in no
way infringes on the jurisdiction Of
the State courts, it puts the whole
power Of the federal department Of
justice behind the detection and prose-
cution of persons guilty Of stealing
from cars or depots since it will be
practically impossible for thieves to
distinguish between interstate and in
trastate shipments.
AS the Carlin act becomes better
known and understood, the, petty
crook will look upon an express pack
age in transit with the same reverence
and awe as he has been taught u res
pect all mail matter, however tempt
ing it's purloining may be to his cri-
minal instincts.

INCOME TAX SCHEME.
Goes Through House Over Protest Of
Minority. Members, VINO Finally
Become Half Reconciled to it

Washington, May o.-1ne o"el'
whelming democratic majority in the
house today swept through the free
list, bowled over all opposition to free
wool, free meats and other neces-
saries. and passed on to consideration
of the hundred million dollars income
tax feature of the Underwood tariff
bill. Not dent was made in the bill
as approved by the ways and means
committee majority, it was expected
the measure would be passed un-
amended by the house by tomorrow.
All day there was sparring across
the aisle dividing the democrats and
the republicans. Many amendments
were offered by republicans in for
lorn effort to put n. J free listed
articles back on the dutiable list, but
all were voted down with regularity
that brought smiles from the mi
nority. Finally when the last of these
proposed chang esdah
proposed changes had been rejected,
Representative Payne precipitated a
lively rules fight by offering brand
new amendment to create tariff COM
mission.
Instantly all the parliamentary
sharps on both sides were astir.
Speaker Clark sat next to Mr.. Under
wood at the front of the speakers
rostrum, where Mr. Underwood has
been conducting consideration of the
bill. Representative Fitzgerald OF New
York rushed in from the appropria-
tions committee, armed with pre-
cedents, and followed by Representa-
tipes Shirley of Kentucky and Hard
wick of Georgia, who joined in the
amendment. On the republican side
Representative Mann, Representative
Gardner of Massachusetts, Represen-
tative Payne of New York and others
conferred and addressed the house.
It was all over quickly, Represen-
tative Garrett of Tennessee in the
chair sustaining a point of order made
by Mr.. Underwood that the tariff COM
mission amendment was not germane
to the bill.
When Representative Mann appeal
ed from the decision the house sus-
tanned the chair, 164 to 81.
Representative Bull of Tennessee,
chief craftsman of the income tax
feature of the tariff bill, prepared to-
night to resist a campaign by the MI
nority to amend the details of the pro-
posed law. He expected sharp fight
on behalf of the mutual fire insur-
ance companies, which would be taxed
/ per cent, under the measure. Pro-
visions affecting insurance companies
we're taken almost verbatim from the
corporation tax law already in effect,
but to avoid any possible question, a
committee amendment was prepared
tonight to eliminate even the slightest
variation from the existing laws.
Regular reading of the income tax
provision for amendment was COM
pleted in short order. Perfecting
amendments offered by the ways and
means committee we're adopted, in
cluding a provision exempting re-
turned investments in insurance and a
clause changing the terms regarding
mutual fire insurance companies so
as to allow them to deduct from their
gross incomes the amount required
under the State laws to be placed in
their reserve funds.
