ANTI DUMPING CLAUSE
(From Staff CorrespondentD

tFrom starr correspondent
Washington, June 80, - Especial
Telegram,)-The last great effort OF
the democratic party to meet present
conditions and to provide revenue to
take care of almost unheard-of ap-
preparations will be made late tomor-
row afternoon, when the ways and
means committee will report what il
pleases to call "an omnibus revenue
bill"
This bill, which the authors of the
measure believe will raise $2l0,000,00C
of revenue, lays tax on war muni-
tions, a tax on inheritance, changes
present income tax features i'll GER
tain particulars, provides for the es-
tablishment of dye manufactures, es-
tablished tariff commission and pro-
hibits unfair competition. The bill
also changes present tariffs on native
wines.
1t is expected that round $780,
100000 will be realized from the new
income feature f>the bill by increas-
ing the normal taxation from to 2
per cent and by increasing the sur
tax on incomes reaching $4,000 and
graduating them until the $500,O00
limit is reached, and after that "the
blue sky"
Munitions to Pay.
On the munitions clause of the bill
it is expected $6O,OOO,OOO will be
realized, according to Representative
Henry T. Rainey of Illinois, ranking
member of the ways and means COM
mittee, by graduating the tax, but
exempting the net profits of 10 per
cent. All explosives, projectiles and
guns are to be taxed.
On inheritances the majority mem
bers of the ways and means COM
mittee, through the bill to be intro
duced tomorrow, expect to realize
$50,0O0,O0. The bill will provide for
an estate tax on all estates under
$4,000 in value, with exemptions, and
then to graduate up rapidly until it
pays s per cent on the very largest
estates. ..n.- s.s.f
&c On dye stuffs the bill will accord
to the dye industry all they ask for
five years, Should they fail to keep
the requirements which the bill pro-
vides within 90 per cent, then the
president is empowered to Withdraw
the tax, but if the dye people show
results even of minor character,
then the president has the right to do
as seems best.
Anti Dumping" Clause.
As to the anti-dumping clause, the
bill provides a penalty for any for
eigner selling goods cheaper than the
wholesale price of the native market,
after allowance for overhead charges
including tariffs.
The tariff commission shall consist
of six members, three of whom shall
be representatives of the party in
power. Their tenure shall be for
twelve years and their salaries $1,000
each.
The bill eliminates all adhesive
stamps, including bank, life insurance,
telegraph and other surtaxes.

Attacks by the British and French
at various places along the western
front yesterday and last night were
repulsed by German troops, the war
office announced today. .-.t.-.,.
Paris, June 30-In a terrific attack
upon the French positions east of Hill
304 in the Verdun sector the Ger
mans captured fortified work il the
first line of the French trenches after
the garrison had been literally buried
under storm of shells. The position
was recaptured by brilliant French
counter attack, according to an official
statement issued by the French war
office today.
The Germans also delivered a
powerful attack on the French posi-
tions in Avocourt Wood and west of
Hill 304, but all their efforts are de-
clared to have been checked with
heavy losses to the attackers. Con-
siderable activity is reported on the
front from Nieuport to the Aisne.
The statement says:
"In Belgium, last night, at about II
o'clock, following preparatory artil-
lery fire, German forces attacked a
salient of our line not far from the
road between Neiuport and Lom-
baertzyde. A counter attack was i'm
mediately delivered which drove the
enemy out of one section of trench
where they had gained footing. Be-
tween Chaulnes and Roye. A strong
German reconnoitering party, caught
under our fire, was dispersed before
it could reach our trenches.
Between the Disc and the Aisne
two other German patrols were dis
persed in like manner, one in front
of Quennevierres, the other north
east Of Vingre.
"In the Champagne district an
enemy attack with hand grenades
upon our advanced posts west of
Butte De Mesnil was easily repulsed.
"On the left bank of the Meuse the
Germans, last night, increased their
offensive activity against our posi-
tions stretching from Avocourt Wood
to point east of hill No. 304 They
directed violent attacks upon the prin-
cipal salients of our line. These were
preceded by intense bombardments
and accompanied by the throwing of
flaming liquids. Between Avocourt
wood and hill 304, all their endeavors
were broken by our fire, which in
ficted heavy losses upon them.
East Of hill 304,. after several
fruitless assaults, the enemy sue
ceeded In taking possession of for
tilted work in our first line, the gar
rison of which had been literally
buried by the German bombardment,
At about 4 o'clock in the morning a
brilliant counter attack resulted in
our again becoming masters of this
work.
"On the right bank of the river the
bombardment has been spirited north
of Souville and Tavannes, particu-
larly in the region of Chenois."

priscd to hear no topic mentioned other
than golf which received any sort OF
attention. Onc OF the remarks OF n
speaker was to the cffec, that it was
becoming so difficult to procure place
where the association could meet II
looked as II the large centres. such as
the Chicago district. would have to he
left ou. OF the reckoning when th" yearly
tournaments were being planned.
This fact has been common property
for some time. of course. and IL has
been commented upon in these columns
that the time might come when u would
bc necessary for all the trade organi-
cations to combine and have their own
semi-public courses In different parts Of
the land where the meetings are more
generally held or. failing to do that, to
take out Of the treasury a sum, say
fifty or "A hundred dollars in all. depend
Ing upon the size Of the golf gathering.
and with this in hand take II TO the
captain or the board of governors OF
some club and say that the green fee Of
$50 would be gladly paid for the privi-
lsge Of playing over the course on GER
tain day and holding tournament.
The rapid growth OF the trade and
professional golf organizations alone has
brought this to pass, and even In the
Metropolitan district there are some clubs
which frown upon having the members
OF an outside organization play n whole
or a part OF n day. II is not for me to
say that this is a selfish attitude To
take. but ! think the main objection has
been the extra expense which has ac-
Crued to the clubs. There should he
some way out OF the difficulty. and per-
haps the paying for the privilege Is the
easiest and the best.
