NICHOLAS IN
DANGER
Remnants Of Montenegrin
Hosts in Retreat Toward
Adriatc, With Austrians
Trying to Cut Of Escape

Rome, Jan. 24.--Remnants of the
persistent little Montenegrir army
are In grave danger OF capture.
After occupying the Montenegrin
seaports OF Antiyari and Dulcigna.
the Austrians are heading eastward
to cut of the retreat of the Monte
negrins to the Adriatic from Scutari,
for II the defenders escape and reach
San Giovanni de Medusa, ships will
carry them to Corfu.
AS rapidly as possible. the Serbians
in Albania are heading for this Greek
city. Within fortnight only Italian
troops in Albania will dispute with
the Austrians the possession of the
eastern Adriatic coast.
Montenegrin officials confirmed re-
ports that King Nicholas adopted the
ruse OF getting an armistice from the
Austrians in order to gain time for a
retreat. AS a result. 1t is feared the
Teutons will wreak a bloody ven
geance upon civilians when the trick
comes to their knowledge.

MEX|CANS
Reprisals Against Americans
Are Anticipated Following
the Action Of Carranzistas
at Juarez Sunday

III Paso, Jan. 24.---Mexican repris-
ais against Americans are feared as
a result OF the Carranzista execution
OF Bernardo and FREDERICK Duran, In
retaliation for the staying OF Bert
Akers, American.
The two men had many friends
across the border. and their death
increased the Ill feeling apparent In
the past few weeks between the Mexi-
cans and the "gringoes."
The Durans went to their death
before a Mexican firing squad at
Juarez at dawn yesterday, with
curses on their lips for the Amer
leans.
FREDERICK. the elder brother, ad-
mitted he had shot down Akers be-
cause the latter was trying to enter
the Duran home while searching for
''rustled" cattle; but he protested to
the end against taking the life OF
his brother. whom he held to be In
nocent,
I'VE are dying for the cause oi
Mexico against the Americans" said
FREDERICK grlmiy. just before the
rifles cracked. Bernardlno fell NOR,
tally wounded. and Mexican stepped
forth from the firing squad TO give
him the "tiro de gracias, the
mercy shot.
Authorities fear that the Durans
may become martyrs In the eyes OF
the Mexican poems. and as result
n reign OF terror may ensue, The
display OF the corpses Sunday in
Juarez seemed to provoke anger
rather than fear among the many
Mexicans who viewed them.

TAX
UPHELD BY
COURTS
Supreme Tribunal Supports
COnsituionality Of Measure
Which Was Tested IN Five
Separate Cases

Washington, Jan. 24.--The federal
income tax was held by the United
States supreme court today to be con-
stitutional.
In the case of Frank R. Brushaber
against the Union Pacific Railroad
company, charging that taxes were
collected for a period prior to the
time when the law was in effect, and
claiming that the law was discrimin-
atory in drawing classes, and that
likewise it took property without due
process of law. the court held that
congress passed the law in 1913, fol-
lowing adoption of the tax amend
ment by the states.
The decision was rendered by Chief
Justice White, who pointed out the
great powers Of legislative bodies to
levy taxes.
"Of course" he said, ''it is super
fluous to say that arguments about
the expediency of such taxes or the
economic mistake or wrong involved
in their imposition, is beyond judicial
cognizance."
In answer TO the objections that
the law violates the national provi-
sions for apportioning taxes among
the states according to population, he
said: u
The want of legal merit is appar-
ent, since it is settled that the clause
exacts only geographical uniformity
and there is not semblance Of
ground for assuming that violation
of such uniformity is complained Of.
"As far as the due process Of law
clause of the fifth amendment to the
constitution is relied upon. it suffices
to say that there is no basis for such
reliance. since it is equally settled
that such clause is not a limitation
upon the taxing power conferred up
on congress by the constitution.
1T is not true that although there
is no express legislational provision
prohibiting it, the progressive feature
of the tax causes it to transcend the
conception Of all taxation and be-
comes a mere arbitrary abuse Of pow
er which must be treated as wanting
in due process Of law"
Five cases in which the income tax
law was upheld by the lower courts
were appealed to the supreme court.
These were grouped and argued in
October, 1915. The attorney gener-
AL was allowed to file briefs in two

QUARTER Of MILLION loss FROM
FLOODING OF RIVERS IN ARIZONA

Several parties OF refugees, driven
from little rambling ranching COM
munities In the paths of the floods,
arrived here today. They reported
that there were a number Of other
wandering bands on their way here.
These people are destitute. Their
homes and lands have been swept
away. In many cases they drive be-
fore them small bunches Of cattle and
carry household goods on their backs.
One such band numbers 70, includ-
ing many women and children.
Stories told today by those who
fed from danger points show that
many lives were probably saved by
courier who rode ahead Of the sud
denly rising waters, carrying warn
ing.
This was especially true at the
sixteen-mile post, Government en-
ployes fed on horseback, escaping
with their lives, but losing every
thing in camp. The protection works
in the Volcano lake region are be-
lieved sufficiently strong to with
stand the shock of the torrent, but

A $4,000 bond issue may be urged
here for repair and relief work.

ALL INDICTMENTS

GOVT ARM0R PLANT
Head Of Bethlehem Company Sees
No Need of United States
Plant.

SOUTH BETHLEHEM, Pa, March
30.-The first of series of state
ments to the public on the question
Of government-owned armor plants
was issued by the Bethlehem Steel
company, signed by Charles NJ
Schwab, chairman, and Eugene G.
Grace, president.
The statement declares that the
private companies have the equip
ment necessary to provide all the
armor needed by the government and
that they are willing to do it at a
fair price, 1T declares there is no
need of expenditure by the govern
ment Of $11,0O0,000, and points out
that it would render useless plants
of private companies, built in antic-
ipation of the government need.
"The three existing private armor
plants have a capacity of $4,000 tons
a year," says the statement. "The
estimated needs Of the navy for the
next five years will call for only a.
600 tons year.
The Bethlehem Steel company has
offered to manufacture one-third, or
such additional quantity as may be
awarded to it, for the contemplated
five-year naval program at price of
1895 for side armor, as compared
with the price of $425 now obtain
ing"
The statement then offers to SUBJ
NIT to an inventory to test the reason
ableness of the price quoted.
