.SIFTON HORSE SALE
DRAWS BIG CROWD
RavellO, a Hunter, Brings
Top Price, $3.50, from
DR.. S. 6. Carter.

The sale OF Sir Clifford Sifton's fine
collection of eleven champion hunters
and high jumpers from Ottawa, Canada,
at Van Tassell & Kearney's, in East
Thirteenth Street, yesterday afternoon

dealers, investors, exhibitors and low
ers of the animal
There were originally thirteen horses
consigned to this sale, but Ladylike, a
bay mare, and Henham, thoroughbred
chestnut gelding, were absent. The
former was late in arriving, and will
be placed on sale tomorrow night.
Henham was injured in transit, and
will not be auctioned.
Ravello, dark chestnut geld,ng
standing more than Is hands and said
to be one of the best heavyweights ever
bred in Virginia, brought the top price
of the sale, 1880. This grand hunter
won the heavyweight hunter class at
Madison Square Garden in 1918 and the
heavyweight championship. He was
knocked down TO DR.. Shirley c. Carter
of Leesburg, Va.
Last Post, a chestnut mare by Marti-
mas out of Flicker, brought the next
best price, S2,350, going to 7. A. Sparks
of the Riding Club, after a spirited bid
ding contest with George BEAUMONT, act
ing as agent for Mrs. Burke Roche, OF
this city. Last Post is a beautiful
hack, with many championships to her
credit.
Miss R. Wasserman paid the next
highest price $4,000 for the chestnut
gelding Elmhurst, by Silver Garter. out
of Jennie Yates. This horse was bred
by J. B. Haggin, the noted horseman
and has record as the largest in
dividual winner for two years of any
horse in Canada.
The prices brought by Sir Clifford's
horses at an unrestricted sale are re-
garded as unusually good, especially

Need of the Giants.

The Giants need good pitching than anything else.
They still have club with fairly stout offence and with
better average speed They have club that field
enough But the pitching has been third division In
many instances to give them chance
The Dodgers led the league in batting last season, but
weak pitching dumped them down into sixth place. The
citizen out there the mound is bigger part Of any base
ball game than non-combatants figure him TO be.
Stangs last summer got bad pitching at the start and
Aoundered around the foot Then he got the best pitch
ing there was and whizzed back to the top.
And thi. Is where the Braves look to have big edge
on the Philes There can only be the finish

CONGRESS WILL nor
PUT TAX ON GASOLINE
Lawmakers Up Against Job
Of Discovering Tax That
viii Please Everybody
By Perry Arnold.

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent.)
Washington, Dec. 27.-House demo-
Gratis have decided to fling aside Pres
ident Wilson suggestion for taxing
internal combustion engines, now an
institution on farms throughout the
country.
Congress began to hear from "the
country just as soon as the presi-
dents message was printed. Every
farmer, who owned gasoline engine
to operate his fodder cutter, his sepa-
rator, his churn or pump, was up in
arms. The response to the president 8
suggestion was so instantaneous and
vigorously negative-particularly from
farmers in addition to the expected
nOwl from the utomobilist--that ad-
ministration leaders in congress decid-
ed it was political expediency to drop
the proDosed plan at once.
Congressional leaders, with an eye
on the farmers votes next year, as well
as the votes Of automobilsts- decided
it would be better to shelve the engine
tax. Another factor in this decision, it
is understood, is the widespread use of
automobiles as farm vehicles.
The proposed tax on gasoline is still
an issue. Certain members profess to
see in the recent rise in gasoline prices
an effort by the Standard Oil company
to create sentiment against this plan
of raising revenue. The gasoline user,
now paying from Is to "a cents gal
lon according to locality, would raise
a terrific roar if the government pro-
posed to add two or more cents on each
gallon as tax. An increasing senti-
ment for neavy inheritance tax is ap-
parent among members. There is also
considerable opposition to the bank
check tax, suggested by the president.
