Chairman August Hermann, of the
National Commission. reached town to-
day. He would not show his hand. He
declared very emphatically, however,
that in his estimation the Federal
League would never start. He fntimated
that a bomb would be exploded this

bets knew what he was talking about
when he made the prediction. Pittsburgh
Federals have been able to raise prac-
tically no money from the sale Of stock.
Reports from Buffalo and Toronto are
most encouraging to our cause"
The only progressive towns in the Fed
eral circuit are Chicago, St Louis and
Baltimore. Chicago's park in the North
Side is an ideal location and is bound to
draw patronage as 1t is eight miles from
the White Sox and five miles from the

a big city in itself. ST. Louis has
better location than either the Cardinals
or Browns, but is tied up by city or
dinance that prevents the erection of
wooden stands. They have not sufficient
capital in the Mound City to invest in a
steel and concrete stadium. The same
is true in Baltimore. Over there an eff
fort is being made to amend a city or
dinance SO that concrete and wood"
may be substituted for concrete and
iron"
Accounts ExaEEerated.
Hermann declared that the accounts
from Federal League sources had all
been exaggerated. up to two weeks ago
Weghman had paid out only $500 in ad-
vance money" said he. He didn't give
Tinker a nickel advance or bonus. Joe
holds a check for $4,000 payable on

 F, B. Duffy, president of the Con nectfcut Dairymen's association, said that all agriculture in New England must be intensive. Tt is of no use to tell the farmer to make two blades of grass grow where one did befofe," he said, If he knows that the transpor- tation interests are going to eat the extra blade of grass as soon as it grows
 He believed. however, that there was 8, better feeling between the farmer and the railroad than there has been in the past. "The best means of pro- teeting his interests is the agricultural society, through co-eperatien," he add ed,
 Speaking for the National grange L, H. Healey, secretary of the Con- neetieut board of agriculture, said that the grange had been a great educa- tional influence and had made farm life happier and farm work easier.

INCOME TAX WILL
 PRODUCE $50. .ooo, 900
indications That Administration Will
 Realize Expectations.

Washington. March 6.-The income tax law bids fair to live up to the expectations of the administration by producing about $50,O0O,O00 annually in revenue paid by approximately 425,- 600 individuals. Although treasury of- ficials decided tonight not to make public for the present the reports of internal revenue collectors, it became known that more than 100000 indi- viduals had made returns in the 63 collection districts up. to Monday mid night, when the time limit expired. From these individuals. it was under stood. the government probably would collect more than $40,000,000.
 It has been the opinion among off, cials that thousands of individuals would take advantage of the thirty days extension of time granted in case of absence and sickness. and they expect the final figures to show at least 25,090 more reporting than were given in the preliminary lists from collectors.
 Including the corporation tax as amended in the present law, it was es- timated that the annual revenue from this source would amount to about sS5, 900, 900.

Villa Threatens to Execute Him Unless 5O0OO0 Pesos Are Forthcoming by Sunday-Regarded as an Empty Threat in Some Quarters-Cabinet Discusses Carranza's Atti tude-OnIy Indirect Overtures From Felix Diaz.

M Paso. Texas. March 6-The case of Luis Terrazas whose fife has in effect been declared forfeited unless 5O0, 900 pesos are forthcoming by Sum day, was without change tonight.
 The ransom has not been paid, as General Luis Terrazas, father of the prisoner, claims that out of his vast fortune no such sum is available,
 An Appeal to Bryan.
 Felix Martinez, prominent political ly in this section, is reported to have telegraphed Secretary Bryan inviting him to use his good offices in behalf of the younger TerrazaS. Many friends of the latter declare that Vil- ia's threat of taking his captive south with him, which is regarded by the father as a death sentence, is all but empty, as with Luis alive he may be able to extort money from the family if any is left, while Luis dead would no longer be Q weapon in his hands.
 Advantage in Holding Terrazas.
 Moreover by keeping Luis prisoner, Villa may hope to control alleged po- litica1 activities of the aged father, who is accused by the rebels of financ- ing recent filibustering movements. particularly those of Jose Orozco and the Quevedo brothers.

 Mr Vanderbilt was bern in the cid Vanderbilt home at New Dorp, Staten he became interested in the wild meun- tain region of western North Care lima and by successive purchases he accumulated an estate of 100000 acres on the French Broad river and laid out there a, vast park and erected buildings on a scale which has seldom been edualled in this country. MF. Van derbilt devoted most of his time to the personal supervision of this estate In the valley he built a model town and called it Bi1tmere. His farms were filled with bioeded stocks.
 He was supposed, to be one of Amer ica's wealthiest men. He had a mum Der of charities and he spent money without stint upon the development of his mountain estate. He seldom came to New York, but spent part of his summers at Bar Harbor, Maine, where he had a handsome home.
 In 1898 MT. Vanderbilt married Miss Edith StuyEesant Dresser. Mrs. Van derbilt and one child, g daughter. sur ViVe him.
