FICHTING Is INTENSEi

London. March 3-Around the village of Douaumont, which is in the hands or the Germans, is raging battle of great intensity. Having captured the village and extended their lines west and south the Germans were forced to give ground before vicious attacks of the French who regained part of the terrain they had lost The fighting here is proceed ing unabated.
 From the region of Malancourt, west of the Mouse, to the Woevre region, east of Nerdun, the bombardments are Of violent character, the Germans endeay- bring to force their way closer to the fortress of Verdun and the French te- naciously striving to hold them back. Several assembling points of the Ger mans have been vigorously shelled py the French, especially in the vicinity of Beaumont.
 The Germans admit that in the region of Ypres the British recaptured the po- sitions the Germans took from them February 14, but say that the British were immediately driven out of most of them. The British, however, declare that they have consolidated these posi- tions
 There has been considerable artillery activity in the Argonne forest and in upper Alsace an infantry engagement Tn
 which clements of German trenches were taken by the French. QUIET IN RUSSIA Comparative quiet prevails on the Rus sian front. Along the line in the Alps and on the Isonzo river sector the Aus trians and Italians continue their bom- bardments and attacks at various points by infantry, but without materially changing their positions.
 The Russians have captured the im- portant town of Bitlis in the Lake Van district of Turkish Armenia and else where in the Caucasus region and Persia are keeping up their vigorous offensive against the Ottoman forces. An official communication from the Turkish army headquarters says the east and west coasts districts of Alden have come under Ottoman rule IS the result of the submission of the tribes men.
 The Turks also report a defeat re- gently of the British near Dafiuch. in the neighborhood of Alden, but the Brit ish official press bureau denies that an engagement took place here. The British have reoccupied Sidi been in the hands of Senussi tribesmen commanded by Turkish officers. The town was occupied without resistance

FULL OF POSSIBILITIES

Paris, March 3.--While it appears cer- tain that Verdun remains the principal objective of the Germans, their offensive lis full of possibilities which will be re- vealed as the great battle progresses.
 The region of Douaumont. which conn prises their positions the village, the re- doubt and the fort, again today was the center of a fierce German attack. The combat continues about this region. The fact that the Germans succeeded in en- tering the village is considered by mi litia observers only as a fluTuation in the tide of battle that is likely to occur during any important action A con centrated fire of the French guns in the Woevre has forestalled a contem- plated sortie on the part of the Ger mans. Tn following the present devel- orments the military observers discuss the possibility of an attack on the right bank of the Mouse by the Germans and the question whether the Germans will devote more attention in the vicinity of Fresnes on the extreme French right These are among the mysteries of the action.
 NOT IN FULL FORCE
 It becomes evident that the Germans in the battle lasting from February 21 to 26, used only part of their forces Although they had put in line seven army corps there must have been an inn 
 forces, and it is attributed to the lack of space, the sector which was the scene of the furious combats being ex- tremely sn1all-not more than 10 lSlome- tres long.
 There is also speculation as to the du- ration of the battle. Comparison of the fighting around Verdun is being made with the fights on the Isonzo and at Czernowitz each of which lasted about a month. The battle at Czernowitz is considered as particularly comparable with that at Verdun. it having been on a limited front and consisting of a se- ries of extremely vigorous frontal at tacks, separated by pauses.
 One attack against Douaumont, ac- cording to a wounded German, was led by an entire brigade of the Fourteenth Hanoveran regiment. of which this man was member. He says the brigade was literally decimated by the French quckfirers.
 Various documents found on prisoners established that without doubt the ob- ject of the offensive of the Germans is Verdun, the last rampant of French re- sistance.'
 One of the German general orders of the day found on an officer and signed by the chief of the German general staff, requests the troops to conduct themselves worthily in the battle which will decide the fate of France

EFFECT ON OTHERS

London, March 1.-The British press is studying carefully the effect of the Yer dun fighting on public opinion in vari- ous European capitals particularly the neutral countries of Greece, Roumania Scandinavia and Holland. A special correspondent sent to Sweden by the Telegraph warns the British public as follows:
 Any decisive German success will produce a far-reachng political effect upon certain neutrals. The rebound in Sweden would be great and almost inn mediate
 Tt is hardly realized abroad that the recent fluctuations in the attitude of Sweden were the direct results of the vicissitudes of the campaign in general and of Russia's grave reverse in par ticular While the majority of the Swed- ish people entertain no desire to ex- change safe and lucrative neutrality for a belligerency which can bring no last ing advantage, the sentiments of the inarticulate majority are of little avail against the motives by which the ruling statesmen are impressed
 ''It is certain that decisive Teutonic victory at the present juncture would be followed by most important changes in the international situation" The Athens correspondent of the Tele- graph says: If Greece can serve as an example of the effect which the giant struggle at Verdun will have upon neu- trals, one can safely forecast that it will be immense. Greece is following the different phases of the battle of Verdun with absorbing interest It is believed here that the effects and political con sequences will be even more far-reach ing on Germanys Balkan alles.'
 Dispatches from Bucharest show that there is a keen interest there in the Verdun fighting The correspondent of the Exchange Telegraph declares 'only la great German victory can prevent Roumania from joining the entente allies shortly

Washington, March a-fSpeciaI.)-A reliable canvass of both houses of Congress brings to light the fact that the democrats are preparing to put the burden of preparedness on the great wealth. of the country.
 AS soon as all appropriations are com pleted, the revenue question will be pre- cipitated. MT. Hull of Tennessee is pre- pairing the administration bill. While there is a possibility of resorting to in- heritance taxation it is learned that first dependence will be placed in the produc- tivity of an increased income tax.
 There is doubt at the present time as to what percentage of their incomes the possessors of great wealth will be re- quired to pay Average opinion is that F per cent will be sufficiently large. On the other hand there is a virile minority contending for 50 or even a5 per cent
 HOW WEALTH ESCAPES
 Experts of the democratic faith, de- nianding an income tax containing big percentage clause base their position on the following pronunciamento:
 Our present system of raising 1000, ,000,- O0o a year for the maintenance of fed e1al, state and local governments, costs the average workingman from b to % per cent of his precarious earnings, while the wealthy, even with the per cent tax rate on their net taxable incomes in ex- cess of $5oo, 600 from secure investments, pay only from 10 to 12 per cent in taxes direct and indirect.
 Imbued with sentiment to the above effect there is no question but that the more exacting AS a matter of fact, democrats believe that out of incomes the depleted treasury can be filled again. There is a strong sentiment to the effect that inheritance taxation should be re- served until the coming of time when as a result of actual war or other dire emergency, it becomes necessary further to increase the burden of the people
 BASIS OF CALCULATION
 What may be expected from income taxation?
 It is calculated that there are in the United States 7509 persons who together receive net income Of at least Sl,OUO,00O,- . 00o, one-twentieth of the total national income, and almost ssoo,oooo GOO in excess of the receipts of the federal government in 1915.
 It is also estimated that a57,5l5 persons in the United States have an aggregate tsxable income of nearly x,00O 100000, one fifth of the total national income.
 It will only be necessary, therefore, for the fiscal agents of the government to estimate the amount of money required by the government and for the govern ment thus armed, to include the corre- spondence percentage clause in the in- come tax law.
 The only untoward feature of income taxation is that the money to be pro- duced will not be forthcoming before the expiration of practically another year.

From the Chicago Herald
 Mrs. Skinner keeps boarding house where. it is whispered. the guests are by no means too well fed. One of her neigh. bors took it upon herself to point out tt the estimable lady the error of her ways
 I should think" said she, you'd dc well to feed your boarders little better You can't expect them to say a. good word for you when they leave'
 "Oh, but they do,' was the quick re- ply. Almost every one of them has a grudge against some friend or other and he invariably recommends my house to him. I get lots of new boarders in that way,
