AUT0sIi TAX
BILL DEAD
Measure Cut $19,00O,-
600 From Detroit
Rolls
From a stan Correspondent.

LANSING. Mich. April 22.-The
Newell Smith bill. which imposes
tax OF 25 cents per horsepower and
25 cents per 100 pounds of weight
on all automobiles. is dead.
II was killed with amendment
chloroform in committee If the
whole Of the senate yesterday aft
ernoon.
The bill, which passed the house
several weeks ago. was amended to
provide tax of 25 cents per horse
power and 25 cents per 100 pounds
weight on all cars of 20 or less
horsepower and tax Of 81 per
horsepower on all cars of greater
strength. This places premium
on the light car.
Senator James Murtha also
jumped into the amendment game,
tacking on one for a refund OF 40
per cent OF the tax collected to the
county In which II originated.
A strong fight was made for both
these amendments in the house and
they we're defeated overwhelmingly.
The house will not recede from its
former position. and, even should
the bill pass the senate on third
reading today, It will die OF amend
mentitis.
Opponents Of the measure say
they have Is votes against It in
the senate, but this is considered
doubtful.
The chief objection to the bill
from a Detroit standpoint Is that It
removes sl9.O0O.0O0 from the tax
rolls OF the city.

ALLIES IN ACCORD
 ' REGARDING REPR|SALS
E1QeI to Come Back al Germany
 for Submarine Blockade.

London, Feb. 26, TAO D. m.- France, Russia England, Serbia and Belgium are said by English officials to be in absolute accord as to repri- .,sals to be made on Germany, Austria and Turkey in retaliation for the Ger man submarine campaign. England was in conference with her allies con- corning reprisals before the receipt of the last American note, making informal representations looking to the discontinuance of submarine ac- tivities and to the admission of food to Germany for her civil population.
 While 1t can be authoritatively stated that the nature of the repri- sals has not been agreed upon abso- lutely as yet, England and her allies have decided upon the main points which probably will be announced Monday by Premier Asquith, in a statement for the press, simultaneous ly with the submission of the po- sition of all the opponents of Ger many to neutral countries whose trade Is vitally affected by the present naval .amethods.
 Won't Discuss Note.
 Walter Hines Page, ambassador from the United States to Great Brit sAin and the British foreign office have refrained from discussing the terms ' of the American note, but the foreign office has intimated that the probable statement of Premier Asquith on Mon day will not be direct answer to the American note, but a long-prom- ised elucidation of the intimatiOn made by Sir Edward Grey, secretary of state for foreign affairs and other ga binet members that reprisals against h Germany would doubtless be neces- sary.
 There is every reason to believe { that England fully intends to make all foodstuffs for Germany absolute contra band, thus cutting off the movement of ships to German ports and making export trade by sea inn possible. Great interest is being shown by the British press and the public in the probable treatment of cotton under the new system of re- prsals. The belief seems to be gen. aral that cotton and food all will be- come absolute contraband.

CASCARETS KEEP BOWELS REGULAR
 AND CURE COLDS
No headache, sour stomach, bad cold or constipation by
 morning.

Get a 10-cent box.
 Colds--whether in the head or any part of the body-are quickly over come by urging the liver to action and keeping the bowels free from poison. Take Cascarets tonight and you will wake up with a clear head and no doubt you will wonder what became of your cold. Caccarets work while you sleep: they cleanse and regulate the stomach, remove the sour, indigested food and foul gases; take the excess bile from the liver and carry off the constipated waste matter and poison from the bowels.
 Remember the quickest way to get rid of colds is one or two Cascarets at night to cleanse the system. Get a 1O-cent box at any drug store. Don forget the children. They relish thls candy Cathartic and it is often all that is needed to drive a cold from lhelr little systems.

BUCKET SHOP AGENT
 IS BACK OF BILL
For Ticker Freeing Move, Claim
 Stock Exchange Men.

Hartford, Feb. Exchanges that this state and that a man who had been agent for one of the biggest bucket shop syndicates in the coun- try, in New Haven, was back of a bill now before the legislature pur- porting to be aimed at preventing inn proper discrimination in the sale by telegraph companies and ticker ser vices of stock quotations were made by representatives of the New York Stock Exchange and the Chicago Board of Trade, who appeared yester- day before the legislative committee on judiciary.
 One of the men behind this bill said H. F. Robbins, counsel for the Chicago board of trade, was agent for bucket-shop syndicate which he helped to prosecute under Attor- ney General Wick kersham during the Taft administration. The statement that bucket-shops have been thriving in Connecticut was made by R. T. H. Halsey, member of the governing board of the New York Stock Ex- change. Walter r. Taylor, counsel for the New York exchange also ap- peared in opposition to the bill.
 The bill in question, which was in troduced and supported by State Senator Benjamin Fl. Hewitt, of the twentieth district (Mystic) was jus tified by him on the ground that it would relieve an injustice caused to small brokerage firms in Connecticut by the operation of a discriminatory

view of these charges that he shoulo say that he had introduced the bill at the request of Frank M. Gil1llan, who had for some time operated q brokerage office in New Britain for a New York house. He had run a Con soidated Stock Exchange office, which he thought might have been the reason why the New York Stock Exchange discriminated against him He had been refused the quotations without any just cause he declared Senator Hewitt challenged the repre-. sentatives of the New York Exchange to say anything against MT. Gilhllan.
 Edward M. Day of Hartford, who was acting as local counsel for the New York men, stated that he would be glad to file MT. Gilnllan's record with the committee.
 Calls for Record.
 Senator Hewitt insisted that it was a public hearing and that if they had anything against MT. Gilnllan they should produce it in public.
 MT Day was objecting to the public introduction of this matter when he was interrupted by Mir. Halsey who said that if Senator Hewitt wanted the matter introduced publicly he certain ly had no. objection. He then pro- ceeded to read a stenographic tran script of what he declared to be Gil- fillan's testimony at a hearing before the quotations committee of the Ex- change in New York on his applica- tion for the quotations service. Ac- cording to the transcript read by MT. Talsey, Gilhllan admitted connection at various times with firms which he admitted himself to be doing buc- ket-shop business. MT. Halsey claimed that practically all the brok- craze concerns GilfiIlan had testified tosconnnection with in the past were bucket shops. He mentioned in par ticular his connection with the Nor . wich office of company, which he | said was a bucket-shop concern.
 Man Robbins Meant
 MT. Robbins added the crowining sensation by stating: T just want to say that Gilfillon was exactly the man had in mind.'
 Senator Hewitt was evidently gs much surprised as anybody else at this turn of affairs. He made brief statement in which he said he be- lieved MT. Gilfillon's connection with
