4 DECISIONS IN
STATE TAX CASES
Both Judges Kunkel and Nc
Carrell Hand Down Opinions
in Bonus Appeals

Two State tax appeal decisions were
handed down by both President Judge
Kunkel and Additional Law Judge
McCarrell of the Dauphin county
courts to-day. The question of impos-
ing bonuses on proportion of capital
stock employed by any outside corpor-
alton within Pennsylvania was raised
in each instance.
In the case of the Diamond Rubber
Company of New York, the question
was whether a bonus imposed on for
eign companies by the act of May,
1901, is to be computed upon capital
or upon proportion of capital stock
employed in this State. President
Judge Kunkel holds that capital is
TO be interpreted to mean property and
assets and not capital stock. The
State, therefore, is given judgment in
the sum of S554.52. A similar deci-
sion was made by Judge Kunkel in
the case of the Imperial Pneumatic
Tool Company, of New York, and the
State is awarded S161.44.
In the appeals of the Schwarschild
* Sulzberger Company of America,
and the United Cigar Stores Company,
Judge McCarrell disposed of practic-
ally the same question by awarding
the State judgments in the sum of
S5S1.5S each.

GOVERNOR HITS
BACK AT BALDWIN
Gives Out Text of His Veto of
the Capital Punishment
Bill Today

Governor Brumbaugh countered on
Representative Richard j. Baldwin,
candidate for Speaker, this morning
by making public the words of his
veto of the bill giving juries the right
to fix the punishment for murder at
death or life Imprisonment and calling
attention to his personal stand.
The Governor made no comment on
the Baldwin statement of yesterday
which took him to task for an inter
view in which he stated his repugnance
toward capital punishment and his
veto. He handed out a COPY of the
veto in this language:
Governor Comes Back
The following statement was given
out at the Governors office to-day:
When the Governors attention was
called to a recent statement that he
had vetoed a bill abolishing capital
punishment, he said that such was
absolutely not the case. The bill re-
ferred to may be found in his vetoes,
No. 156, page 399, and refers to an
act which changes the method of fix
ing the penalty from that of the i'm
personal law, as ii now is to the dis
cretion of the jury hearing the case
1t in no sense was an act to abolish
capital punishment. The Governor is
opposed to capital punishment and in
his veto makes clear his position upon
that matter. His language is as fol-
lows:
~ file herewith, in the office of
the Secretary of the Comm onwealth
with my objection, Senate bill No. sos,
entitled An act to amend section sew
enty-fve of an act, entitled 'An act to
consolidate, revise and amend the
penal laws of this Commonwealth
approved the thirty-fi first day of March,
Ammo Domini one thousand eight hun
dred and sixty, by providing that the
penalty for murder of the first degree
shall be eitheE death or life imprison-
ment, at the discretion of the jury or
of theNcourt, as the case may be-
This bill amends the penal law of
March 81, 1850, by providing that the
penalty for murder of the first degree
shall be death or life imprisonment
at the discretion of the jury or of the
court.
" Its purpose is to put upon jury
or court the solemn and serious duty
of defining the penalty in the case of
the most heinous crime one can be
guilty of. The jury and the court
ought not to have this power and
would not welcome this obligation
The tendency would be against social
justice. Much as one may object to
having the death penalty imposed
and this law does provide that it may
be imposed, it is not wise to place
upon persons set to secure justice this
responsibility The present statute
gives court and jury the duty to find
the facts and declare verdict. The
law-and impersonal public will-fixes
the penalty, and so it should until we
see our way clear to abolish capital
punishment. There is a growing SEN
timent in this direction and it would
seem wise to let the present law oper-
ate until an enlightened public senti-
ment brings about the desired change
from capital punishment to imprison-
ment. For these reasons the bill is
not approved. D."

Brokers Plunge Through
Crowd in Chicago Wheat Pit
as if on Football Field

Chicago, Dec 81. A maximum
decline of seven cents was registered
in the wheat market at the opening
to-day on President Wilson's peace
note.
Wheat for May delivery closed yes
terday at 161 y to 162. 1t opened to-
day with sales ranging from 155 to
1853. July at 130 to 131, opened 4 * to
q cents lower. Pit brokers were
loaded with selling orders and huge
business was done.
There was a stormy time in the
wheat pit during the first fifteen
minutes. Frequently brokers plunged
through the crowd as if on the foot
ball field, grabbed each other by the
shoulders and shouted into each
others faces. Buying on the part of
the strong houses quickly brought
about n semblance of steadiness, how
ever, and in less than half an hour
the selling stampede appeared to be
at an end with the market about 5
cents under yesterdays finish.

Condemn French Bill to
? Confscate by Simple Decree

Paris, Dec-20. - The bill empower
ing the government to take by simple
decree whatever measures it considers
necessary in the interest of national
defense was strongly condemned in a
resolution passed tonight at a joint
meeting of the newly formed national
action groups of the Chamber of De-
puties and Senate, in which most of
the government critics belong.
The resolution says the groups are
ready to give the government every
facility for the active conduct of the
war, but on two conditions. first, that
the government use energetically and
methodically the means it already has
before asking for new ones, and sec
ond, that the new ones which it asks
for shall have previously been subject
ed to proper deliberations and be suit
able for the purposes for which they
are asked.
