mentS in Charles R.
Heike Case.

The extent of the immunity bath was
brought today before the Supreme Court
for determination with arguments as to
whether Charles r. Heike, former secre-
tary of the American Sugar Refining
Company, was entitled to immunity from
the prosecution for conspiracy to perpet-
uate sugar-weighing frauds against the
customs. Heike was convicted on this
charge and sentneced to improsinoment
John y. Stanchfeld, attorney for
Heike. Informed the court that Heike
testified about the affairs of the company
of which he was then secretary at a
grand jury investigation as to whether
the company was violating the Sherman
antitrust law. The attorney pointed to
an appropriate to enforce the antitrust
act and the interstate commerce act as
granting immunity from prosecution IL
those who furnished evidence i'm cOnnec-
ton with the enforcement of those laws.
Government lawyers replied that this
immunity extended only to prosecutions
for violating the trust or interstate COM
nlerce acts, and not to a prosecution foi
conspiracy to defraud the government
out of customs.

THE INCOME TAX.

Senator Lewis of Illinois stood on
very substantial ground when he dis
puted with Senator Root the latter's
statement that unless the income tax
was reduced to $1,000 it would hurt
only my people of New York"
The New York World very peril.
nently remarks:
Whatever basis of justice there is
TO Senator Roots plea for reducing
the income tax exemption from $4,000
TO $1,000, his argument is not strength.
ened by his charge that the bill in ef-
feet is legislation by the south and
west against the east.
NO doubt an exemption OF only
81 900 would tend to perpetuate pat
riotism and loyalty TO the government
by requiring a slight sacrifice in re-
turn for citizenship But only in q
fgurative sense is it true that the
measure in its existing form thrusts
the burden of taxation on a few east
ern states. The great fortunes of
New York are not New York fortunes
in the meaning that they are the &C.
cumulations of New York commerce
and New York industry They are
national fortunes, the sources OF
which are the mines and mills and oil
/ wells and railways as well as the cot
ton and wheat fields of other states.
/ The Rockefeller and Carnegie and
/ Prick fortunes were not amassed in
/ New York, and of thousands Of lesser
fortunes II is equally true that they
are New York fortunes only in the
sense that this city has bedome theil
place of distribution by the preference
of their possessors for residence here
Taxing incomes from such accumu
lations is not discriminatory merely
because the tax is paid in New Yorl
or Boston. II is an equitable tax or
wealth the origin OF which in the ag
gregate is national and as such prop
erty subject to taxation for nationa
I uses"
