Violating Sherman Law.
I. w. BOYER EXPLAINS

The Salt Lake Clearing House asso-
clation yesterday rescinded it's rule for
bidding the payment OF interest on
checking balances except under certain
defined conditions. This action, II is
believed, may tend TO clear UP q stua-
tion that has been somewhat tense for
several months past The rule, and the
banking disagreement growing out OF il,
were responsible for the appearance Of
several OF Salt Lakes most prominent
bankers before the Pujo committee In
Washington during January, when the
clearing house situation in Salt Lake
was the subject OF testimony.
According to The testimony given there
by the bankers, the National Copper
bank refused TO subscribe 10 a rule OF the
old association known as lob. forbid
ding the payment Of interest on checking
accounts. This rule was adopted after
the National Copper bank became a
member of the clearing house. Suisse
quenty eight OF the members of the
clearing house resigned. leaving the Ma
tional Copper the sole member Then
the eight organized a new association,
one OF whose rules forbade the payment
OF interest on checking balances.

PRUSSIA TO TAX BACHELORS
All Getting $3.50 a Year Up Will Be
Specially Assessed for Remain
ing Single.

Berlin.-The Prussian diet is now
giving its formal official consideration
to project for taxing bachelors. The
original bill has been amended so as
to make the tax effective only in the
case of unmarried men whose income
exceeds $3.50 year.
Such men will be called upon in
case the bill passes to pay a tax Of
from ten to twenty per cent higher
than married men with correspond
ing incomes.
The bachelor tax will take the form
of an income sur-tax. The idea Of the
legislators who are backing the bill is
that men who have have to support
wives or children ought not. in JUS
tice, be compelled to pay as much to-
ward the support Of the state as men
who are leading the care-free. IRE
sponsible lives Of bachelors.
The project is fathered by the con-
servatives Of the diet and has every
prospect Of becoming q law.

Great Disaster Pictured by W. 7.
Stead in 1886.
Enormous Loss Of Life Predicted by
the Distinguished English Jour-
naIist In His Own News-
paper.

London.-An investigator. searching
for material for biography OF w. I.
Stead, the Englishman who went down
with the Titanic, has discovered a
strange prediction of his own doom
made by Mr.. Stead in the Pail Mall
Gazette on March %. 1886.
This article, written by Mr.. Stead,
was headed, How the Mail Steamer
Went Down in Mid-Atlantic."
The article appeared a couple OF
days after the Oregon was lost. and
purported to give a description OF
the scene of horror that ensued on the
then biggest Atlantic liner, when at
last the passengers realized the ship
was doomed. In q footnote, Stead
wrote:
This is exactly what might take
place and what will take place II
the liners are sent to sea short of
boats"
Here are some extracts from Stead's
grim prediction:
From below there came a queer
sucking sound, with an occasional long
gurgle. and saw that the ship seemed
10 hang as the seas met her.
1.-THE boats were made fast to stand
heavy weather, and only skilled sail
ors could launch hem.
Il calculated that, by loading all
the eight boats down to the waters
edge and by packing the children
along the bottom boards, we might
accommodate 300 pepole. We were
carrying GIG altogether.
"A loud crack, followed by a wallow-
ing noise like thunder, rendered
all other sounds Insignificant, and a
captain who was going out to New
York, said. The bulkhead's gone.
We must take our chance The ship
stopped nearly dead. and began to
tremble curiously, but it was only the
river of water pouring aft. and We
soon saw the firemen driven up like

THE LIMIT.

II DREAMED an awful dream last night.
Such as a midnight banquet bringy.
= Aro.. nd me danced in inpish spite
A mob of aggrav waiting things.
With ire provoking hop and skip
The truant collar button came,
And with it romped the ruthless rip
That in glove fingers brings swift shame.
The shirt front that will form a hump
In spite Of all precautions wise.
The tie that makes one feel chump
BY unframed tendency to rise.
The break that will come in the crease
Ones favorite trousers aye should wear.
The crease that comes to break the peace
Across ones shoulders grand and square.
The gust that grabs ones glossy tile
And makes of it a sight to see,
The tile that parts from shape and style
With most apparent fiendish glee.
The soft boiled egg that meath ones tap
Ones gentle tap-besprays the board;
The fly that spoils ones we'll earned nap
And human bores, a countless horde.
But only one in all that train
unmanaseabe rage could STIR
The fog that closes round my brain
When / would brilliant be-with her!
