FINDS FOSSIL OF HUMAN
 IN ROCK FORMATION

WAGON WHEEL GAP, Colo, Jan. 3O.-The skeleton of what was evi' dently a human being has been found here forty feet below the surface of the ground in solid rock formation. The skeleton, which apparently has been sealed in the rocks for thousands of years, was in an almost perfect state of preservation.
 The discovery, which may prove a most important one in aiding scien- lists to learn more about the early in- habitants of this continent, was made by Ellwood Bergey, a mining man of this section, who was driving a shaft on some mining property and hand gone about forty feet, most of the way through solid rock formation.
 A charge of dynamite set off in the bottom of the shaft exposed in the side walls a small Assure about six feet long and one foot wide, which was tightly sealed with rock and tale formations.
 Within this silent and long buried tomb the fossil was found.
 The discovery isexciting much To- cal interest and the skeleton is on eX- hibition here. It is small, but seems too strongly built to be that of child.

To Place a Ban on
 The Traffic in Opuinn

turing Chemists and the American Medical Association were present.
 Dr. William c. Woodward, Health Officer of the District of Columbia, the American Medical As sociation, objected to the bill on the ground that it would impose a tax of 100000 a year upon the physicians of the United States.
 MT. Harrison replied that unscru- pulous physicians are said to be the chief cause of the spread Of the drug habit. He said physicians in high standing would not object to the tax of $5 a year, which the bill provides, if it would rid the profession of those members who abuse thei.' D.. leges as physicians by dispensing opium, cocaine and such drugs to victims of the dope habit"
 The bill provides that on and after July l, every person handling opium, morphia, coca leaves, cocaine, their salts, derivatives or preparations, shall register with the Collector of Internal Revenue of the district, his name or style, place of residence and place of business. An annual tax of $5 for retailers, which includes physicians, and $1OO for importers, ex- porters, manufacturers, jobbers and wholesalers, is provided.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 81.-Represen- tative Francis Burton Harrison, of New York, has taken steps to have enacted at this session of Congress a Federal Anti-Narcotic law which will make the United States one of the leading nations to place a ban on the traffic in opium, cocaine and other drugs of similar nature. As Chair man of the subcommittee of the Ways and Means Committee to which was referred Mir. Harrison's bill, which he introduced he held hearing yes terday.
 Dr. Hamilton Wright of the State Department, who represents the United States in the international com mission upon the opium trade, an- nounced that the Netherlands had called on international conference for June l, and he pointed out the desir- ability of having a Federal Anti-Nar- cotic law on the books before that time, especially, he said, since the United States had been leader in the movement, but had so far failed to enact law for itself.
 Representatives of the National As sociation of Retail Druggists, the American Pharmaceutical Association, the National Association of Manufac.

WASHINGTON, Jan. S1.-The hear ings on tarin which are being con ducted by the Ways and Means Com. mittee have not been completed but as soon as they are over tine Com mittee will prepare the measure to be passed at the special session of Con- gress. which will replace the pres ent Payne-Aldrich law.
 It is asserted by Chairman Under wood and his Democratic colleagues on the committee that revision of the chemical schedule along the lines of the bill passed by the House last year will save American consumers $l7OOO,OOO, and will at the same time increase the revenue to the Govern ment. It is the plan of the commit tee to levy low rates of duty upon non-competitive articles produced in this country, especially the chemicals used in the textile industry and chemicals and drugs used for medi- cines.
 II. J. Krebs, President of the Krebs Pigment and Chemical Company, of Newport, Del, protested against any change in the present chemical sche- dule, and he was supported in his con tention by R. A. Mccormick of Balti- more. Louis L. Brigham of the Brig ham Sheet Gelatin Company of Ran dolph, Vt., wanted relief from the pres ent chemical tariff, claiming that it was not scientifically adjusted. He held up specimens of his own and for eign gelatin and protested that there was today just as much duty on raw materials as for the finished product. He contended that this arrangement put him on the same basis as the for eign gelatin manufacturers. He told the committee that double the present duty on the finished product should be fixed in the proposed gelatin tariff.
 T. F. Scholkopf of Buffalo contended that the proposed reduction of the duty on coal tar dyes, or colors, of which about $ZOOO,OOO worth annually are brought to this country. would op- crate mjustly to the American in- dustry.
 George Simon, representing the Hyde Chemical Company of New York, stated that a slyci!c acid trust existed in Europe, and that if the duty was re-

 Save Country Millions

duced on this product American manu- facturers would be at the mercy of this trust. He said it would be i'm possible to make this acid if any re- duction was made.
 William A. White of the Eastern Chemical Works of Hartford, Conn.,, said that manufacturers of gallic and pyrogallic acids would have to aban- don their manufacture if any reduc- tion in the duty was made.
 "Tt would result in competition with Germany" said Mir. White. He ad- mitted however, that within five years this industry would need little or no protection whatever.
 Charles Delaney of Philadelphia, manufacturer of glue and gelatin, told the committee that he welcomed a cut in the tarifr on his products. He did not believe it would hurt the in- dustry in the least, he said, as the price of glue and gelatin is already so low. He said the United States produced more glue than any other country in the world. Mir. Delaney said his company also manufactured curled hair.
 What's your side line?" he was asked
 Curling hair" he replied.
 "YouT find the gentleman from Kentucky a pretty good customer" in- teriected Representative Longworth of Ohio. while senator-elect James of Kentucky. a bald-headed member of the committee, who loves a joke re- torted:
 Did you say straight hair? If you did, should like to buy some for my own use"
 Mir. Dorian, Treasurer of the Amer ican Graphaphone Company, of Hart ford. Conn.,, favored keeping shelac and copal gum on the free list He was questioned by Representative Kit chin as to the capital stock of his company.
 My company is capitalized at $1O,- OOO.OOO," he replied. Last year we paid ' per cent dividends"
 How much of this stock is wa tered'?" Mir. Kitchin asked.
 This is not a proper question for the committee to ask me-" replied MT. Dorian, displaying some feeling, land I refuse to answer it."

NEW YORK, Jan. 31. - The New York Stock Exchange has appointed a committee to confer with Governor sulzer over proposed legislation, fol- lowing the Governors special message to the legislature urging supervision and regulation of the Exchange.
 The members of the Stock EX- change express little doubt that it is the purpose of Governor Sulzer to pay particular attention to the con- duct of the Stock Exchange, nor have they any doubt that the majority of the members of the Legislature will be in sympathy with his undertaking in the way of reform.
 One Of the leading members of the Stock Exchange admitted that indica- tions pointed to the passage by the Legislature of bill to bring the op- erations of the Stock Exchange under the supervision of the State. Some of the members are said to indorse this

project fl it can be accomplished with out dauage to the legitimate business conducted on the Stock Exchange.
 These men believe that it will be possible to eradicate many of the evils disclosed by the report of the Hughes commission and revealed by the officials and members of the Ex- change who testified before the Pujo committee. It is this element in the Exchange which favors a peaceful ad- justment of the controversy which is certain to follow the introductions of bills to incorporate the Stock Bx- change and to forbid wash sales" margin trading" short selling" "pyramiding," and other practices which have brought the Exchange in- to disrepute.
 The purpose of the members of the legislature to compel the necessary reforms has been clearly established by declarations already made by leg islators.
