DEMOCRATS IN
CAUCUS RAISE
TAXES ON BEER
Propose Levy of $1.75 a Bar
rel-Senators Slash
House Bill.

WASHINGTON, Oct. THE coe-
Gus of Democrats OF the Senate III
the emergency war revenue bill Is
drafted by the finance committee
was resumed today. The conference
had failed to complete its labors
after sessions which began early yes
terday and continued until nearly
midnight. When a recess was taken
until today. Aseveral important fea-
lures Of the war ta% measure await.
ed the action Of the caucus. II wa
hoped to complete the work of re-
vising the bill by the time the Sen
ate met today IN order to permit the
attendance of the members of the
conference upon its sessions.
BY the action of the caucus the
burden of the s100 900 war reve-
nue bill is imposed upon liquors. The
proposed extra tax on beer was in
creased from fifty cents to seventy
) live cents a barrel, making the totas
levy $1.75 a barrel, with a draw
back of per cent for purchase Of
revenue stamps in advance. spe-
cial revenue tax on rectifiers of dis
titled spirits Of five cents a gallon
also was levied. The taxes ON liquor,
! it is estimated would raise more
than s50,O00,001 in revenue annually.
The caucus also eliminated the pro-
posed tax of fifty cents a horse
power on automobile sales, estimated
to raise 100000 and the proposed
levy Of one cent a gallon on gasoline
estimated to bring in $4,000, 900. ana
cut in half the proposed tax of 81 a
thousand dollars on. banking capital
and surplus, thus reducing the esti-
mated revenue from this source from
30, 100000 to sl,700,00
When 1t resumed work today the
caucus took up for consideration the
various stamp taxes and levies ON
perfumery, cosmetics and patent
medicines. Consideration of these
proposals had been deferred until to-
day, when definite estimates on yes
terdays caucus action were COM
pleted.
Before the discussion got down to
concrete items Senator Lewis, of Illi-
nois. had proposed that the entire
bill be dropped and that the treasury |
call in at the rate of 81, 100000 month |
the $75,0O0.000 which it has on deposit |
in the national banks of the country. |
lie proposed to supplement this with
an Inheritance tax effective January
I, to be collected by the income tax
force. The proposal failed
Senator Williams offered an amend
ment to increase the tax on Pullman
car seats to five cents per seat. which
would raise 81 100000. Senator Lewis
opposed this as confiscatory and
offered an amendment to make the
lax one cent per seat, which would
aise $250000.

PLANNED TO LASSO A SHIP.
An old Time Mexican Scheme to Out
wit the Americans.

A leafiet from Don Ramon's folk
lore may interest you. When war had
been declared against Mexico and the
arrival OF the American hosts was daily
expected i'm southern California, st.
Agnes was in a tremor. OF course,
not Of fear, but Of excitement.
One day the news came that United
States vessel of war was approaching
the hurbor. A council Of the ancients
OF the city was Immediately convened
and many plans of offensive and de-
fansive action were proposed and dis
cussed, and finally the following one,
designed by II Frenchman, whose
brother had commanded a crack regi-
ment under the great Napoleon. was
adopted
He was to take his spyglass and the
only available artillery that St Agnes
aGforded-a small brass cannon, which
had been used alternately with anvils
to fire salutes during religious and civic
professions q am unable to say how
many OF FOUNDER it was)-to the top
OF the mountain, distance of twelve
miles In a bee line from the ocean
beach. In the meanwhile all the ex-
pert yaqueros, the moment the vessel
was sighted, were to conceal them
selves and horses along the beach.
When the ship had anchored and the
proper moment, in the Judgment of the
French commander. had arrived. he
was to fire the cannon from the top of
the mountain. ut which signal the
yaoueros were to rush through the
Irf and lasSo the masts of the ship,
clpsize It into the breakers and har-
poon the soldiers and crew MS they
ldeavored to escape to shore. This
brilliant coup detat was not carried
1t, only BECAUSE the ship never came.
