BRIDES IN BATHS" CASE.
Death of Second Wife Described at the
Trial of London Man.

| London, June 2s.-George Joseph
Smith, husband of three wives who died
in their baths, and who is now on trial,
, charged with the murder OF one of them,
whom he married as Beatrice Mundy,
had Saturday to face the ordeal OF a
partial reconstruction in court OF the
scene Immediately after the death OF
Alice Burnham, second OF the three
brides.
The bath tub in which Alice Burnham
met her death was placed on table IN
the courtroom, while physician, DIR.
Billings, illustrated how, when he was
summoned to the house where the cou-
pie lived, he found Smith supporting
his wife's head just above the surface of
the tubful of water. The witness testi-
ed the woman's head was toward the
narrow end of the tub.
Evidence was then introduced to show
that Smith had bought annuity insur-

RESTA WINS RACE IN
PHENOMENAL TIME
Winner in Peugeot Car Makes Great
Speed of o7.6 Miles an Hour
on New Course.

Chicago, H., June 2s.--All competitive
speedway automobile records of TIN
world from so miles to 500 were shat
tered in the running of the first Chica
60 500 mile derby Saturday. They wcr,
not only beaten by Dario Resta, who wor
with q French ear and captured more
than 1000 in prize money but by the
nine drivers who finished in the mon,
ley.
The previous record, made recently by
Ralph de Palma at indianapolis was at
the rate of 1884 miles per hour. Res
ta's Average was 97.6 over the same dis
lance and j. Cooper. who finished 10th
bettered the De Palma mark, averaging
90.3 miles. The result, according to ex-
perts, establishes the reputation of the
new wooden track as the fastest in the
United States if not in the world. 1t
was announced that despite threatening
weather early in the day $4,000 persons
witnessed the spectacle.
The performance OF the veteran Har
ry Grant in driving the entire race with
out a stop excited almost as much en-
thuslasm as the brilliant victory or hes-
ia. Grant never hesitated during the
entire 5o0-mile grind, although his av-
erage speed which landed him fourth po-
sition was 95.06 miles an hour. The pre-
vious nonstop record III competition was
305 miles; Fl cars started and eight
dropped out in the course of the grind.
]. Cooper, the last of the 10 drivers to
finish. was but rs minutes and four see
onds behind the victor
Resta was the favorite at the start
and led most of the way, closely pressed
1T all times. He visited the pit only
three times. Il held back bit for the
irst l25 miles, but after that | let her
nut and barring accident | felt sure Of
winning said Resta. When the race
vas over he wiped the oil from his face,

TO TEST THE
INCOME TAX
It's Validity Attacked in the
U. S. Supreme
Court
CLAIM MADE THAT
SEC. OF TREASURY
Has Arbitrary Power over
Corporations in Re-
gard to Surtax

Washington, ID. c., June 2s.-Paper:
were filed Saturday in the first attack
in the supreme court on the constitu
tionality of the federal income tax
which promises to be the most impor.
tant case before the court next term
Counsel for John f. and Horace Dodge
of Detroit, Mich, filed brief of arg,l-
ment attacking the surtax on income of
individuals.
Three main reasons were assigned for
claiming the sustax provision of the law
is invalid. Stockholders of the corpora
tions, it is asserted, when computing
their surfaces, are subjected to liability
for the gains and profits of the corpora
tions which have not been divided or
distributed.
1t is charged also that provision vests
in the secretary of the treasury an arbi-
trary power of determining. without a
hearing, whether any corporation has ac-
cumulated q greater undivided surplus
than is reasonable for the needs of the
business. ''How can he reach such de-
cision?" il is asked THE law makes
no provision to aid him"
A third reason is that provision per-
mits corporations to accumulate and
withhold from surtax taxation such part
of their profits as may be reasonably
necessary for the needs and purposes
of the business, and does not accord
such business privileges to individuals
and partnerships. 1t is urged that cor
porations are thus favored by a "most
invidious discrimination II Congress
had such power, some very popular dis
are within its reach, the
brief asserts.
lit would be very popular In some
quarters it says, "to levy higher rate
on incomes derived from the manufac
ture of liquors. Another popular dis
would be to increase the |
rate on income from oil and steel and |
corporations
The case was begun to prevent the
collector of internal revenue at Detroit |
from collecting surtax on each of the
Dodges of approximately $4,000 for the
year 1913 The federal district court
N Michigan held the tax valid.

Ithaca, N, Y, June 2s-An address by

threatened Saturday to disrupt the stu

Mr.. Maxim characterized Pontius ri.
late as the "arch.typical neutral;" de-
clared modern style guns and arma-

LAC. AHEAD
IN SHORT GAME
Defeated Richmond, 3 to 2,
in Five Innings on
Saturday
'WEAFERI HIT HARD
BUT WAS LUCKY
Gallagher Pitched a Star
Game and Also Walloped
the Ball for a Double

At the Italian A. c. grounds on Berlin
street Saturday afternoon the Italian
Athletic club defeated the Richmond
Athletic association at baseball by q
score of to in fve-inning game
The game began promptly at 3 o'clock
and after four innings OF play shower
came up. After rest OF 20 minutes
while the shower was abating, the play
ers once more gathered on the field, only
long enough to finish the first half OF
the fifth inning, thus by rules making
the play constitute game.
Gallagher and Weaferi were the OPP
posing pitchers and in the short space of
play both were touched up for hits, but
the visiting pitcher was in the best form,
only allowing three hits against eight
from Weaferi's delivery. Gallagher was
also striking out more men, getting six
victims in four innings against three
whom Weaferi struck out in five. Meth
er pitcher hit man with pitched ball
nor gave man a free pass on balls.
The fielding of the teams was where
the Italians were superior to their OPP
ponents. In one instance only We're they
in error. That once was in the fourth
inning when Lyons ad Giacamuzzi both
tried to cover second base when runner
was going to second. Neither was pre-
pared for it but Lyons made wild dive
to get throw from Weaferi and missed
il by few inches. This was the single
error made by the Italians. Otherwise
their fielding was superb, they pulling
down some hard flies and scooping up
some speedy grounders and making some
grandstand plays
The visitors were rather wild in their
throws and could not handle the ground
ers the way the home team could II. |
Berry, who was playing third base for
the visitors, made bungle of a little |
hit of Clari's and allowed him to get safe |
at first. Gallagher threw wild at frs,, |
and two throws home were anything but |
perfect, especially one by Henley that |
was at least yard beyond the reach OF
any common catcher.
In the first inning the Richmond team
scored their two and only two runs. II.
Berry, Clark and Grow each singled, but
Clark was put out on second when trying |
to steal. j. Berry struck out but Gal
lagher got double and scored two runs.
bowers grounded out to shortstop, ending
the inning. The rest of the hits that
the Richmond team got were well scat
tered.
In the third inning the Italians got
their first score. Tomasi hit for three
bases. After Giacamuzzi struck out,
Lyons sacrificed and Tomasi scored. Bot
tigi ended by tanning.
In the fourth CLAIR got one by Berrys
error and scored when Comoli banged
out two-bagger. They tried to get
Clari home and Comolli was safe at
third. Weaferi hunted, getting TO first
and also scoring Comolli. The score:

Mr.. Devine reported that he was much
