below the amount from this source in
1914. With tie end of the war ap-
parently remote, many treasury Off
Gals are convinced it will be neces-
sary for congress to restore the old
duty on sugar, which is to become
free next year, and add about $780,
100000 revenue.
The income tax proved the big pro-
ducer the last - months. Total re-
ceipts up to the close Of business last
night were $79,82S,675, of which $685.
303,525 came in June 80. This is
more tan $S,5OO,0OO above the total
received from the tax last year and
there remain ten days in which it
may be paid. Officials believe &c.
100000 will come in in that time,
bringing the total $5,000,000 above
the amount estimated.
1t was said tonight that the per-
sonal income tax proved surprise
this year. Last year it brought in
only $2S,000,000 but up to date tits
year it mas produced more than SAL
100000 and that probably will be
augmented by several millions. The
corporation income tax apparently
will be about the same as last years.
Better Than Expected.
1t now develops that the emergency
tax law has proved a better reve-
nue. producer than expected. Despite
this, however, internal revenue re-
ceipts for the year-S335,82S,377-
were only about $27,OO0,OOO in ex-
cess of last years. One contributing
fact is t1at whiskey is not paying the
revenue it used to produce by some
$16,OO0,OOO or $20,000,O00 year.
Another thing pointed out tonight
by treasury officials was that the post
Office department, usually self-sustain-
ing, has run behind this year and
has received advances from the treas
ury amounting to more than s6,0G0,-
900. The treasury has paid out on
account of TIE Panama canal during
the year more than 100000 which,
though reimbursalble, it not likely to
be reimbursed for many years to come
unless through bond issue.
Total expenditures for the year were
$731, ,527,572 compared with $780,
$50, ,248 last year.

NATION IN DEBT
Deficit of ss5,Se4,sS1 for Last Year
No Explanation Yet.

Washington, July 1.-The second
business year of the present admin
istration which closed yesterday
showed s35,864,391 deficit COM
pared with surplus for the year
ending June 80, 1914, of s34,418,67.
Official explanation will not be is
sued until the figures for the year are
analyzed by Secretary McAdoo, but
on the face of tie records it is ap-
parent that receipts were much
smaller-an enormous reduction in
customs revenues resulting from the
war-and that disbursements were
much greater.
Notwithstanding the deficit on the
years business the treasury now has
an actual net balance of $82,025, ,716.
With every prospect that t3is balance
will be increased by possibly $10,-
100000 in the next ten days, it is
evident there will be no bond issue
to repIenish the Golfers for many
months to come, if at all.
Customs Fell Off.
Customs receipts for the last fiscal
year amounted to s209,268, ,107, about
$11, 100000 under estimates made by
Secretary MeAdooe several months
after the: war began, and $4,000, 600

into the court i3ouse with white
bandage around his head, through
which showed a dark red stain above

have been weakened by the loss OF
blood and tottered as he stood before
tie justice.
"You are charged" said Justice
Luyster, with assault with intent at
malicious killing. How do you wish

Justice Luyster informed the pris-
oner that the wording of the charge
was according to the legal code.
"Do YOU want a preliminary exam
ination?" the justice asked.
81 don't know what you mean, y
Holt replied. "But I do want to OBJ
ject to that part that tells about ma
licious killing. That isn't right
The justice explained the meaning
of his question and again asked how
he pleaded. Finally Holt said he
pleaded not guilty. He appeared unde-
cided whether he wanted prelim1-
nary examination. Assistant District
Attorney Weeks stepped forward
while Holt appeared to be making up
his mind and told the court he would
like to ask for a postponement of all
further proceedings until next Wed
nesday, July 7. This was granted,
Holt being held with out bail in the
meantime

ed today to have been sunk by Ger
man submarines in the vicinity of the
Scilly islands and off south Ireland.
The Caucasian met her fate south
west of Lizard Head, on the coast of
CornweH on Thursday morning. While
engaged in picking up her crew the
Inglemoor fell victim to the same
submarine.
The Caucasian when the submarine
opened fire, was given full steam in an
endeavor to escape. Not until tie
steamer was struck by several shots,
one of which demolished the wheel,
did her captain surrender The crew
then took to the boats. The sub
marine hauled alongside and fired
eight SHELLS into the vessel.
A few hours later the Inglemoor
appeared and started picking UP the
Caucasian's boats. The Inglemoor had
taken the occupants of the small boats
on board when the submarine emerged
and opened fire on her. Escape being
hopeless, the crew took to Uae boats
and the submarine then torpedoed
and sunk the Inglemoor, subsequently
returning to the Caucasian which was
still floating, and sending her to the
bottom.
The crew of the Inglemoor and a
part of the crew of the Caucasian were
landed at Pensanco. One of the Cau-
casian's boats, with nineteen men
aboard, was being rowed toward
France Wnen last sighted.

AT police headquarters Holt was
interrogated about this statement.
"Do you think you are crazy?" he
was asked.

Holt was asked wnere he had lived
before going to Ithaca. His memory
seemed to fail him here. After a
long pause re replied that he used to
live in Milwaukee.
"Is that where you got your for
eign accent?" he was asked. He did
not reply.

wounds in his body, threw himself on
his assailant and the three men went
down in a struggling heap on tie hall
way floor.
The struggle on the floor was short.
The pistol was torn from Holt's fin
gers and he was beaten by the butler
and other servants, who came run
ming at the sound of the shots, until
he offered no further resistance. Then
tae Glencove police and a physician
were summoned and Holt was placed
in one of the Morgan automobiles and
hurried at 40 miles an hour to the
Jail here.
Mr.. Morgan, calmly and collected
ly, feeling, ne said, that he had been
shot, but experiencing no sensation
of weakness, walked up the stairs
and went to the telephone. He call
ed up tie doctor and afterward his
office in New York city and told the
story of the shooting, asserting that
he did not regard his wounds as Sc
rious. Then ne went to his bed and
lay down, awaiting the doctor.
While the doctor was hurrying
from Glencove, Mr.. Morgan asked
t: at the telephone be brought to him.
He himself ordered long distance
connection with Utica, N. Y, and
through the exchange with his
mother. He told her that she would
hear reports tat he had been shot,
but that she was not to worry.
"Fired to Scare Him."
Holt was locked in cell in the jail
mere. To the questions of the local
police he at first gave no reply. For
over an hour he refused to give his
name or say anything about himself.
Finally he became talkative and told
Justice Luyster he had gone to see
Mr.. Morgan about ending the Euro
pean war and Mr.. Morgan had not
given MIN chance to say anything.

Soon Holt decided he would write
what he had to make public on the
matter. He then prepared state

and intended for the newspapers. In
this statement lae repeated to great
extent what he had told Mr.. Luyster
orally.
The effect and nature of Mr.. Nor
gan's injuries were not defined until
nearly 4 o'clock this afternoon, when
specialists had completed their ex-
animation. In the meantime nu-
merous conflicting reports were cir
culated as to the gravity Of his
wounds. One report said bullet mad
struck Mr.. Morgan in tie abdomen.
A line OF deputy sheriffs was
stretched around the Morgan estate

PRESSING NORTHWARD
AuStrO- German Drive Into Poland
Gaining-InYasiOn Appears Sc
riOuS to Russia.

London, June 1.-The Austro-Ger-
man drive northward into Poland
from Galicia is gaining momentum
and England is puzzled as to whether
the German purpose is to make this
the main effort or to continue a con-
centrated offensive to force the Rus
slams from tie southeastern tip Of
Galicia.
Whatever the ultimate object is,
fighting along the Gnila Lipa river
has not abated and Berlin not only
records progress here but also farther
north in the arc around Lemberg and
between the Vistula and the Bug riv-
ers.
The Austro-German forces on dlis
front are estimated at 100000. They
are not far from the Zamosc fortress,
% miles mort hof the Galician from
tier.
Nearer 10 NHSaWe
Only hundred miles to the north
is the great Russian base Brest-Lit-
ovsk, linked with Warsaw by i'm
portant railways and lying almost due
east of the Polish capital.
The devlopment of the Galician
campaign has created a situation en-
tirely unexpected by the allies. The
British press frankly comedies that
the invasion of Russia is serious. The
papers, however, put faith in Russia's
campaign for the production of more
munitions.
The Arras sector maintains its rep
utation as the storm centre Of the
West, but although losses are piling
up daily neither side delivers de-
cisive blow.
Chin in Gallipoli.
An Athens dispatch tonight says the
allies have taken the Turkish strong
hold of Krithia, on the Gallipoli
peninsula. Qualification over British
progress in Gallipoli is hardly more
pronounced than tie realization of the
tremendous task England and France
face in their attempt to clear the
Turks from natural defenses barring
the way to Constantinople.
The first stroke against British ma
val craft in home waters for some
time is announced by the admiralty
tonight, which says that IA men have
ben lost by the mining or torpedoing
of the destroyer Lightning, an old
craft laid down two decades ago.
Bulgaria which both sides are US
ing every effort to bring into the con-
f1ict, has notified reservists in England
to be ready to join the colors, but
Bulgaria officials here say this is a
perfunctory procedure.

RAILWAYS SAY
LAW IS BURDEN
Data At Wage Inquiry
Showing 3.459 Regula-
tons Added, Thereby
Reducing Income.

Statistics showing that in the last
four years western railroads have
been made subject to 3,459 orders
and laws by commissions, munich
palities and state legislatures were
presented to the board of arbitra-
ton in the wage hearing at Chica-
60 Saturday.
They cover every subject, from
drinking cups to wedding the right
!! of way" declared Warren S. Stone
of council for the enginemen, after
glancing down the list presented by
the railways to show the burdens to
which they are subjected.
James M. Sheean, attorney for
the railroads, explained that it
was impossible to estimate in mon
ey the cost of these regulations to
the roads, but they were presented
for the purpose of giving the board
a complete picture of the burdens
on railroad incomes, and to show in
addition that the railroad employees
in certain instances, while asking
for more money for increased eff.
ficiency, were supporting prospect
i've laws which would curtail that
efficiency.

ture in Utah to curtail the length Of

the thorns from our fingers, to kiss
the bruises, to mend our torn gar

Exchange on Paris
and London Drops
to New Low Point

NEW YORK. Aug. 14--More acute con-
ditIons attended today's foreign exchange
market, with new low records for bills
on London and Paris, Demand. sterling
fell to A6oth. against yesterdays low
level of A.70%, and Paris checks were
quoted at 500, less OF cent from
yesterday. -
Tho market was SO demoralized that
dealers in exchange had the greatest diff.
ficulty in keeping themselves posted on
rates. Quotations in different banking
houses varied all the way from 1 TO 4
points on the remittances TO London and
Paris. After the close OF the market It
was said that one of the largest banking
institutions in this city had sold London
bills as low as $3.50.
The rate quoted for other European
countries showed no marked changes
from yesterday. In point OF fact quota
lions for all continental exchange, other
than on Paris, were merely nominal Of
fcrings on London and Paris were rela-
lively light. but It was said that further
large amounts Of these remittances would

present indications point to lower quo.
tations unless British and French credits
are soon established here.
So far as could be learned no progress
was made today in negotiations having
for their object the establishment Of
further foreign credit or loans in this
market.
