Special to The Republican,

TUCSON, Aug. 10. = Compensation for injury or death while employed, held the attention and consumed time in toadys session of the State Fed eration' of Labor. The initiated bill started by Mahoney of Oatman and drafted by Senator Worsley. was found to be defective. 4 resolution urging the use of the resources of the Federation for it's defeat was ap- proved by the law and legislative committee and adopted by the con- vention.
 Perry of Bisbee declared that it would have tendency to put pre- mium upon foreign labor because of it's provision that in the case of an injury resulting in death. where the Workman's family resides in foreign country, they shall be paid only half sided in the United States. Many delegates declared that as bad as is the present law, this bill would make il worse
 The Bisbee Miners Union came to the front next with a resolution rais- ing the compensation for permanent injury from s4000 to S10,000. on- the ground that the higher price paid tho more protection would be granted voluntarily by the employers to tho workers. Other provisions sought arc starting payment from the first day instead of after the fourteenth. ant fixing the rate at 75 per cent of hi: wages instead of 30 per cont, as a present.

 WASHINGTON. Aug. 10.-State of ficials today explained that the re- cent request to the German embassy for permission to publish one of Count von Bernstorfrs notes on the settlement of the Lusitania case, was an inadvertence. At first it was de- nied that any such request had been made but an investigation of the de- partments files disclosed that a let- ter prepared by-a subordinate official has been signed either by Secretary Lansing or Acting Secretary Polk and had been transmitted to the Ger man embassy.
 State department officials declared that too much importance rad been attached to the request in German official quarters. and that ii was not as interpreted. an indication that GeTmany's proposals were to be ac- cepted as satisfactory.
 State department officials today broke their silence on the subject and asserted that what really happened was this:
 4 subordinate official who as sembles the diplomatic corresponds , ence wrote the German embassy a letter which Mir. Polk admitted was signed either by himself of by Sccre fary Lansing for permission to pub fish one of. the Lusitania notes sub mitted by the German ambassador on December 4 The embassy replied giving it's assent with the suggestion ! that the last note. dated February | IS. be published at the same time This suggestion was not answered | On the other hand. the suggestion ! that any of the correspondence be published was dropped at once on the decision of higher officials that tho circumstances which intervened tc prevent a conclusion of the negotia- tions had not been altered.
 The embassy was not informed O the change in the plan. Word was sent to Berlin that the note would he made public here.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1O.-A net profit excise tax on all manufacturers selling goods to foreign governments as a substitute for the munitions tax in the pending revenue bill, is being seriously considered by democrats of the senate finance committee.
 The tax on munitions of war. includ- ing copper products, as proposed in the house bill. has been giving demo- cratic senate leaders considerable trouble They have been told by ex- perts. however, that the substitute vir- tually agreed on would not constitute an export tax and would be constitu- tional. Although directed against gen. eral exports to foreign governments. it Is expected. that the proposed plan would apply particularly to manufac- turers who have made large fortunes out of the European war and would add many millions to the revenue of the government The plan under con- sideration Is substantially as follows:
 That every person or corporation engaged in the business of selling goods. wares, or merchandise of any description to any foreign government or to the agents or representatives of such foreign governments. shall pa, for each taxable year an excise tax oi one per cent on the net profits of sucf business in excess of ten per cent oi the capital invested and not in excess of twenty per cent: two per cent or net profits in excess of twenty and no in excess of thirty per cent. three pei cent on no profits in excess of thirt, but not in excess Of forty Der cent four per cent on net profits in exces of forty. but not of fifty per cent: anC five per cent on net profits in excess of fifty per cent.

Prices, as a result, were so low as to offer little inducement to new mills in the west, where our great timber reserves are located. It is probable that conditions after the war may be very similar to those which existed before.
