ARMED TIMER AGAIN
ARRIVES IN PORT
Question of Armed Merchantmen
Will Be Taken Up at
Washington.

Washington, Jan. 24.-Arrival OF
the Italian steamship Verona in New
York today with two guns mounted at
her stern probably will result in the
Austro-Hungarian government taking
up diplomatically with the United
States all the broad questions involv-
ed in the arming of merchant ships
for defensive purposes. 1t was indl-
Gated tonight that the charge of the
Austrian government here would in
form his government of the arrival
of the ship, and call on Secretary
Lansing in the near future to deter
mine the position of the United
States.
1t was freely predicted in Teutonic
circles, when the Italian ship Guisep-
pc Verdi was allowed 10 sail recently
from New York with guns mounted,
that communication on the subject
was Immediately to follow the arrival
of another Italian ship similarly arm
ed. It was authoritatively stated to-
night that the Austro-Hungarian gov
ernment probably would inform the
United States that any Italian ship
encountered by an Austrian submar
inc would be sunk without warning,
regardless of who is aboard.

Air Raids
Ouer Dover

/ London, Jan. 24.-Air raids have
taken place in various localities. Ger
mans again have passed over Dover
in an aeroplane, which was engaged
by all anti-air craft guns and pursued
by British airmen.
Whether bombs were dropped is
not stated.
This was the third venture of the
kind in two days. In the other visit,
bombs having been dropped on the
docks and stations at Dover, and
aviation sheds at Houvahan, near
Dover. according to Berlin official re-
ports, which say heavy fires were
observed" at Dover.
On the French and Austrian fronts,
the usual bombardment continues
but without great gains for either
side. The British explosion of mine
near St. Loi, in the Arras region, did
considerable damage to German
trenches and also silenced German
trench mortars by artillery fire near
Ypress.
Floods and generally bad weather
are hampering the operations of the
British against the Turks in Messo-
pOtamia.
In northwest Egypt the British
have been successful in an attack on
the camp of Seussi tribesmen, the
tribesmen being dispersed and their
camps destroyed.

INCOME TAX
IS UPHELD By
SUPREME COURT
Congress Contemplates Amending
Act to Yield Nearly $780,
100000 Annually.
OPINION D1sPosEs
OF ALL SUITS
Those Earning From $4,000 to
$4,000 a Year May Be
Assessed.

Washington, Jan. 24.-The income
tax was declared constitutional today
by the supreme court in an nnani-
nous decision. which swept aside
every contention raised against 1t
and, in the opinion the congressional
leaders. opened the way for increas-
ing the tax rate on great fortunes to
help pay for national defense.
After Big Incomes.
Proposals are pending in congress
to tax incomes Of more than $1,000
900 as high as fifty per cent. Lead.
ers on all sides agree that out of the
impetus which the decision today will
give such proposals is likely to come
a definite movement to levy on the
revenues from great private fortunes
for some of the millions the govern
ment must raise to carry out the
army and navy increases. 49,.
Clears Way.
'The supreme courts decision has
absolutely nnfettered the income tax
as source of revenue" said Repre-.
sentative Hull of Tennessee, author
of the law. "'All doubt is removed
and congress is left much freer to
act l believe congress will take ad.
vantage of the opportunity to amend
the law materially. Without any un-
usual or unjust charges, it can be
made to yield $195,000,000 to $780,
O0O, 600 year, as against $S5,00O,000
to $90,0O0,O00 at present"
Lower Limits.
Representative Hull is preparing
amendments to carry the tax to in
comes below $4,000 and make graded
increases in the s,lr-taXes on incomes
exceeding $4,000. a year.
SO far the problem of raising the
revenue for national defense, al
though approached from many angles,
has not been carried toward any def.
mite solution because, with the con.
stitutionality Of the income tax ur
decided, administration readers we're
reluctant to. place too much depend
ence on it.
Settles All Points.
The decision was announced by
Chief Justice White. 1t was render.
ed in the appeal of Frank R. Brush
haber from the action of the New
York federal court in refusing to en-
join the Southern Pacific, of which
Brushhaber was stockholder, from
paying the tax. The case raised sub
stantially every point involved in all
the income tax cases before the
court.

GERMANY OFFERS
PREPARATION IN
LUS|TAN|A CASE
Desires to See United States In
sist on Freedom of the
) Seas.
EXTREME REGRET
IS EXPRESSED
Proposal Now Before State De.
partment Final Word in
Negotiations.

washington, Jan. 24.--Germany mas
submitted to the United States
through Ambassador von Bernstorff
another written proposal, designed to
bring about a settlement Of the sink
ing Of the steamer, Lnsitania.
There were Indications tonight that
the documents might bring to a sat
isfactOry termination negotiations
which have been in progress for eight
months.
Although the greatest secrecy sur
rounds the negotiations, it was stated
tonight, on excellent authority, that
Germany had consented to eliminate
from the text OF the agreement any
mention of the warning issued by the
German embassy the day the IAlsi-
tania sailed on her last trip from
New York. Mention of this warning
is, understood to have been contain
ed in the proposal which was reject
ed after President Wilson had con.
sdered it.
It is understood also that Germany
has left other proposed general res
ervations Of admission Of WrOng-do.
ing on the part of the submarine
commander to which the United
States objected. "a. @
1t was also stated authoritatively
that in it's latest communication Ger
many makes some reference to de-
sire to see the United States take
action in regard to the questions in
volving freedom of the seas.
To Confer.
j. ,sa.The. ernaaasaambassador and Sec
retafy lansing probably will confer
regarding the proposal in the future.
Germany reiterates clearly, it is
said, that the torpedoing of the Lusi-
tania was an act of reprisal for the
British blockade of the German coast
Extreme regret is again expressed
that Americans lost their lives in the
commission of the reprisal and Ger
many freely offers reparation in the
form of indemnity. The attention Of
the United States is callel to the
fact that some forms of reprisals
have been discontinued.
Proposals Final.
The German government IS under
stood to be most anxious 10 settle
the matter in manner mutually sat
isfactory 1t is said, however, that
the proposal now before the admins
tration is considered to be final. Ger
many is said to hold thai she has
gone as far as she possibly can hon
orably to meet the views Of the Unit
ed States. ~.
The negotiations are treated rs
highly confidential in official and dip.
lomatic circles. For that reason it
has not been disclosed just how far
the new proposal would go toward
finally settling the controversy. An
optimistic feeling seems TO prevail
however.
The document is said to cover
about one and a-half sheet OF ordi-
nary letter size paper. Count yon
,Bernstorff is understood to have per.
sonally drafted the proposal now un-

INDEPENDENCE
iii II
I. Of PHILIPPINES
. GETS SUPPORT
President Wilson Said to Be in
Favor of Autonomy for
Islands.
TO BE ACCOMPLISHED
IN FOUR YEARS

washington, Jan. 24.-Granting of
Independence to the Philippine IS.
lands in not less than two years and
not more than four years may be fav-
ored by the Wilson administration.
Senator Hitchcock, chairman of the
Philippine committee, discussed with
President Wilson provision to that
effect, which Senator Clarke of Ar
kansas had introduced as an amend.
ment to the pending Philippine bill
After comforting with the presi-
dent, Senator Hitchcock. while il.
would not say what the president had
told him, indicated it was probable
the amendment would have the ad-
ministration's support. He said he
would have to talk with other sena.
tors before deciding definitely wheth-
er the change would be accepted.
The president previously opposed an
other amendment proposed by Sena-
tor Clarke proposing independence
for the Philippines within two years.
The Clarke amendment would direct
the president to invite the attention
of the powers to maintain the sOver-
eighty of the islands, and if such an
agreement could not be reached,
would authorize him to guarantee in
behalf of the United States alone the
independence of the islands in a per-
.iOd of four years.
Senator Clarke's amendment was
the subject of an animated discussion
during the day. Senator BOrah, Re-
publican, and Thomas, Democrat,
both expressed themselves as believ-
ing the good Of the United States lay
in cutting off from the Philippines as
soon as possible.
Senator Colt, Republican. asserted
that it would be an act Of injustice
to the Philippines.
