WOMAN HELD FOR
 INCENDIARISM
Mrs. Clara kanischer, of Meri-
 den, Arrested After Fire
HOUSE INSURED FOR S3,OOo
Candle and Kerosene Soaked Cloth ing Arouse Suspicion of Police Husband Escaped Charge of Arson
 In 1eo9-Three Fires Since,

Meriden.-An incendiary fire in & Pratt street tenement house resulted In the arrest of Mrs. Clara Kanischer, aged 47, the owner, on a charge of arson. Two days ago the police found kerosene soaked underwear and 8 candle in the blind attic of the build ing close to the rafter where a fire had been started, but had been ex- tinguished by the tenants. The sus- picions of the police were aroused and the inflammable stuff was left in its original location for decoy and watch kept on the building. About o'clock at night a man came out of the tenement and when ques- toned by Fire Marshal Lucas dealt him a severe blow in the stomach and kicked him in the thigh and then departed on the run. Investigation showed that the building had been set afire only a few moments before and the fire department was called to extinguish the blaze. Mir. Kan ischer would make no admissions of conspiracy and claimed ignorance of the incendiary. The building was in- sured for 5000. In 1909 Mrs. Kan ischers husband was arrested on the charge of arson, but was discharged for lack Of evidence. Since then there have been three fires in buildings owned by Mrs. Kaniseher.

FAILURE OF
 INCOME TAX
U. s. Bond Issue Is Expected
 As Revenues Drop
TARIFF RECEIPTS ARE LARGE
Higher Rates of Republican Schedules Applied During First Three Months Of Fiscal Year-Outy on Sugar
 Also Exacted for Eight Months.

Washington.-The failure of the in- come tax on individuals to yield much more than half the amount expected from it has given Democratic leaders some concern. Unless the outlook changes in less than a year, according to predictions of many familiar with the affairs of the government, the administration will be obliged to re- wise the tariff law again or issue bonds to keep the wheels in motion.
 The Democrats estimated that the personal income tax would bring in about 55,000 600 for the first ten months of It's operations. It Is now found that the law will yield not to exceed SS0,000,000 in the present fis- has expressed the hope of increasing the revenue from this source by prosecuting evaders of the law. If it were not for the fact that customs receipts have thus far exceeded the estimates the Secretary of the Treas ury probably would be obliged to re- port a deficit at the end of the fiscal year.
 Some insist, as it is, that Secretary McAdoo's statement Is too hopeful with his prediction of a $30,000.00o surplus on June 30 next. The Pana- ma Canal payments amounting to $37 100000 are not included in this estimate. for the Treasury Is auth orlzed to reimburse itself for these payments. With these expenses in cluded there would be a deficit of $7 900, GOO on MT. MeAdoo's figures.
 It is pointed out by Republicans that the Democratic tarifr law did not go into effect until October 1, 1913. In July, August and September of the current fiscal year the Re- publican tariff was In operation and the higher rates of that law collect ed.
 Under the Democratic tariff also sugar will go on the free list on May i, 1916. Sugar was the biggest single item of revenue under Republican tariff It brought in about $60,000,0 ,0Oo year. Beginning May l, 1916, f the present law Is left intact, sugar will not yield a penny.
 Furthermore, 1t is pointed out that the old Republican sugar rate was in operation for the first eight months of the current fiscal year and prob ably in that time yielded $30,000, ,0ee or something in excess of that amount, judging from returns from the preceding years.
 While revenues are declining the expenses of the government continue to increase. The appropriations of this session will far exceed those made in any single session in the past. This Is conceded by the Demo- cratic leaders in charge of the vari- ous supply bils. They have tried in vain to keep down expenditures. Despite the dwindling revenues, mem bers have vigorously fought plans of retrenchment. Neither the adminis- tration nor the leaders in Congress will listen to any suggestions for a partial revision of the tariff before the November elections. They are all agreed on the proposition that the party must go to the country this year on the tariff law as 1t stands. If the worst comes within the next few months 1t Is expected a small bond issue vii be 1oated on account of the Panama Canal

MRS. HOLMAN'S LOVE NOTES.
 HARTFORD.-Love letters written ta her present husband were read to the jury in the s50,o00 conspiracy shit of Mrs. Elizabeth A. c. Holman against her divorced husband, the Rev. Cranston Brenton of Yonkers, N Y, and Dr. Olive c. Smith and pr. Paul Waterman of this city, whom she accuses of locking her up in a Vermont madhouse until she signed confession of infidelity. Mrs. Holman wept as she listened to the letters, and Trenton, who obtained the let ters from Holman's divorced wife, sat quietly in the witness chair watching her, Brenton made a general denial of Mrs. Holman's testimony. He said he thought his wife should have been p1seed in the Vermont institution be- cause she was mentally abnormal and had corresponded with and loaned ST GOO to her present husband, before she had even met him. One of Mrs. Holman's secret letters to her pres eut husband, entitled, "A Note of Passion" read in part: 'I long so to be all yours at last, I am afraid to see you. Tonight you are mine, and mine alone. Dear God in heaven, to come in and find you waiting for me! l shall have thee, and possess thee."

 TO RAISE ROAD MONEY

J. R. Willis. H. J. Raymond and w. w. Casey constitute committee appointed by Gov. J. F. A. Strong to solicit funds in the town of Juneau for the purpose of repairing the govern ment road between Juneau and Sheep creek. Several business men in the Governors office last evening and dis cussed the urgent necessity of getting something done immediately on the road which is now impossible.
 Territorial Treasurer Walstein G.. Smith holds about P1S.OOO of moneys turned in from the sale of timber in the national forest reserves to be used for road and school purposes under the act of Congress. but there seems to be no legal way in which this mon- ey can be made available for the pres ent needs. Gov. Strong has taken up with the Department of Justice tue question of working the Federal pris- oners and has suggested that the u. S. Marshal of this district be permit ted to work the prisoners. In the meantime it was suggested that the business men raise enough money for immediate help in making repairs to the road in question.

 Alaska deserves much at the hands of the American people, and I believe its interests will be cared for by this bill. believe that we have at least reached out a hand of real helpfull- ness and brotherhood to Alaska and that We have linked it to us with many bonds in a way valuable to both sides"
