BIG FIGHT IS ON
OVER THE WAR TAX
Democrats are Divided and the Strug-
gle May Rival That Over the
Panama Canal Tolls.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-War reve-
nue. legislation faces a fight within
democratic ranks that may rival the
Panama canal tolls struggle. Revolt
against a proposed three per cent
tax on freight transportation charges
continues to grow and a party caucus
has been demanded.
So strong were protests that ad-
ministration leaders decided to await
the return of President Wilson before
introducing the revenue bill.
Officials close to the president have
said he unhesitatingly would support
the freight tax, while others believe
he will advise the committee to make
a third attempt to provide means for
increasing the revenue without pre-
cipitating party strife.
Several democrats including mem
bers of the ways and means commit
tee, already are preparing substitutes
for the committee bill. Some insist
that stamp tax still will have to be
accepted.

HENRY OPPOSES BILL
TEXAS CONGRESSMAN HOLDS UP
SENATOR SMITHS MEASURE.
Wilson Would Veto 1t Should 1t
Pass. Possible That Warehouse
Bill VIII Get Through.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Represent-
ative Tribble, of Georgia, asked
unanimous consent in the house to-
day for consideration of the bill of
Senator Hoke Smith providing that
state banks should enjoy the same
privileges as national banks in the
issue of emergency currency for the
next year, which has been passed by
the senate, but Representative Henry
of Texas objected. Mr.. Henry has a
proposition of his own, and gave as
his reason for his objection that the
Smith bill is only a short step toward
relief and does not go far enough.
1t is conceded that if Senator
Smiths bill should pass the house it
would be vetoed by the president for
the same reason that he vetoed the
bill allowing the government to de-
post postal savings funds in state
banks. 1t is thought possible that
the house will pass a warehouse bill
similar to the one which Senator
Smith had passed in the senate, but
no further legislation of this sort is
believed to be likely.

suffering caused is appalling. The
West river still, at the end of July,

''At the first we hoped the water
might recede more rapidly and the

be possible.

Capture of Column.
The correspondent thus describes
the capture of the German ammuni-
ton column while the Germans were
feeling their way toward Paris:
THE seven kilometer column was
winding it's way along through Creepy
en- Valois when General Pau sent
cavalry and artillery to intercept it..
The column was too weakly guarded
to cope with the attack and so 1t
was captured and destroyed. This
capture had an important bearing on
the subsequent fighting.
A noticeable feature of the opera
tions has been the splendid marching
qualities of the French troops. This
was displayed especially when two
divisions. which were sent to inter-
cept the expected attempt of the Ger
mans to invest Paris, covered 80 kllo-
meters C491a miles, in two stages. "

27 DROWN IN WRECK
TRAIN PLUNGES INTO A CLOUD
BURST; COACHES TURN OVER.
Eighteen Are Injured, and Some Es-
cape by Swimming. Many Were
Drowned as They Slept.

ST. LOUIS, Mo.-Twenty-seven
persons were drowned today when
St. Louis and San Francisco west
bound passenger train plunged into
a cloudburst two miles west of Leb-
anon, Mo, and two passenger cars
toppled into a flooded ravine.
Eighteen persons were injured, but
none seriously. The wreck occurred
before daybreak, but as wire commu-
nication was interrupted by heavy
storm last night nothing was known
of the disaster at the Frisco general
offices here for several hours.
For several hours the train had
been proceeding carefully, as the en-
gineer feared the heavy rains had
weakened the track. Just as the To-
connective struck a curve, making the
edge of a ravine two miles from Leb-
anon, the engineer saw a wall of wa
ter ahead. Though going only 10
miles an hour the train could not be
stopped. The twelve-foOt embank-
ment on which the track crossed the
ravine had been swept away.
Falls Into RaVine.
The locomotive and the mail and
baggage cars crossed the ravine on
the sagging track before they left the
rails and toppled partly over into
three feet of water. The smoking
and chair cars rolled over into the
ravine, through which torrent was
pouring, sinking deep into the rush
ing water. The sleeping cars remain
ed. on the rails.
Many of the occupants of the sub
merged cars were drowned as they
slept. Others escaped by climbing
through the windows of the submerg-
ed cars and swimming to safety.

TWELVE MEMBERS OF
The EXPEDITION DIED
REVENUE CUTTER ARRIVES AT
NOME WITH STEFANSSON'S
NORTH POLE SEARCHERS.
SHIP WAS CRUSHED IN THE ICE

Camped ON Ice, Which Was Opened
And Churned in All Directions by
Blizzard. Many Hardships Suffer-
ed in the Far North.
NOME, Alaska.-Twelve members
of the Stefansson Arctic expedition
have persisted, it was learned today
when the United States revenue cut
ter Bear arrived with eleven surviv-
ors of the exploration ship Karluk' s
crew, rescued from Wrangell Island
by the gasolene schooners King and
Winges and transferred to the Bear
rs miles from Wrangell Island.
The Karluk was crushed in the ice
last January and part of her crew,
after incredible hardships and perils,
reached Wrangell Island, 80 miles
distant, on March ~ with 10 days
rations. These were exhausted about
June 4. Death by starvation and
cold was ever near the castaways I'M
til Sept. G, when the rescue ship ar
rived. The Hinge and Winge, after
leaving Nome Sept. 8, went to East
Cape, Siberia, to take on Eskimo and
skin boats.
She then laid her course for Rog-
ers Harbor. Wrangell Island, arriy-
ing there about 1870 O'Clock on the
night of Sept. 6. Four Eskimos in a
skin boat went ashore and brought
back a number of men. The schoon-
er then proceeded to the other side
of the island, where it picked up the
remaining survivors. A black and
white cat picked up by the Karluk's
crew at Victoria, B. c., last year also
was rescued.
Counting the eight men who per-
ished on the ice while trying to reach
land. after the Karluk was crushed,
the three who died on Wrangell Is
land and Andrew Norman, of the An
derson party, who committed suicide,
by shooting, while insane from ex-
posture, twelve men of the Stefansson
expedition have died.
After the Karluk was crushed in
the ice north of Herald island last
January her party camped on ice for
some time. Finally they decided to
make for Wrangell Island. They di-
vided into parties and set out. The
party led by DR.. Forbes-MacKay
changed its mind and headed for the
Siberian shore. 1t repented and was
seen to lay its course again for Wran-
CELL Island. Four days later, in the
third week of February, terrible
blizzard ragged, which opened the ice
in all directions and churned it..
There was no hope that any of the
eight escaped, but the survivors on
Wrangell Island searched in every
direction for the eight men, going
even to Herald Island.
After their rations were exhausted
the castaways subsisted on whatever
food they were able to gather. They
killed three Polar bears and many
seals and birds.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-With the
continent of Europe soaked in blood
and many Americans feeling keen
narsonal sorrow in the wreck of arm
les by reason of the scores of interna-
tional marriages that have linked
WASHINGTON to Berlin, to London, or
to Paris. there will probably be less
soulless gayety than has been known
for many a year. This, too, is sign
for the better. Costume dinners with
tbe hostess standing in the middle of
the table as toastmistress and men
attired in baby gowns of white mus
lin. with sash and socks copied from
the nursery, will not seem as anus
ing as formerly, when Paris is in a
state of siege or Berlin has fallen.
With the end of the season just in
sight at Newport and Bar Harbor the
Washington pleasure-seekers at these
abodes of fashion and leisure appear
to be redoubling their efforts and es-
tablishing a record for hospitality
that may carry them into another
season.
In every part of Europe today may
be found some daughter of the Unit
ed States, who, through her mar
riage, has become citizen of one
of the war-swept nations. At the
capital, which the Gear calls Petro-
grad, but which Americans still think
of as St. Petersburg, is the Countess

diplomacy a few years ago to live on
his estate in Southern Russia, was
formerly Miss Helen Tisdell of Wash
ington; the wife of the French min
lister at Stockholm was formerly
Miss Regina Barbour, also of this
city; the Viscountess de FaramOnde,
wife of a captain of the French navy,
was Miss Ivy Langham, whose mar
riage to the French officer took place
here from the German embassy,
where the bride at that time made
her home with her sister. the Baron

Miss Constance Hoyt, a daughter of
the late councillor of the state de-
