REVENUE BILL Is COMPLETED
CAUCUS OF DEMOCRATIC REP.
RESENTATIVES TO BE
CALLED TO APPROVE
MEASURE

Washington, January ia tenta-
tive draft of the administration reve-
nue. bill was completed today by a
House Ways and Means subcommittee,
IT will be laid before Democratic men,
bers of the full committee Monday
and caucus of the House Democrats
may be called some time next week
to approve 1t as party measure.
The bill proposes to raise $236,O00,-
900 from tax on excess profits of
business and increased rates on inher-
itances, and $2S9,0OO,OOO from bond
issue. A provision may be incorpo-
rated later to increase to. 5000, 100000
the maximum amount Of certificates of
indebtedness which may be issued to
tide the treasury over until the new
taxes come in. The treasury now has
authority to issue not exceeding $780,
100000 of these certificates, limited to
a year and to three per cent interest
In levylng the excess profits tax Of
eight per cent upon all profits of cor
porations and co-partnerships in ex-
cess of eight per cent Of capitalization,
the bill defines. capitalization as in
cluding actual money paid in, actual
property used or owned, and all sur
plus and undivided profits. Concerns
having annual profits of $1,000 or less
would be exempt, as would profits de-
trived from agriculture or from solely
personal services such as the incomes
of professional men.
The subcommittee framing the bill,
which comprised Representatives
Kitchin, Rainey and Hull, exempted
agriculture on the ground that the
farmer already is taxed heavily
enough, and that it is impossible to
tell how much farmer has invested
in his business. Excess profits laws
in France, Russia, Great Britain and
Italy exempt agriculture and personal
services.
A foreign corporation doing bust
ness in the United States would be re-
quired to pay the excess profits tax
J the same as a domestic concern. The
income tax methods of collection and
assessment would be applied in col
lection of the new tax
The inheritance tax increases would
raise the rate on the minimum inher-
itances now taxable from one to one
and one-half per cent, and would levy
a new rate of fifteen per cen. on those
of more than $15,0O0,OOO.

WITHDRAWAL OF PERSHING
FORCE BEGUN, REPORT

Ell Paso, Texas, January 19-It was
unofficially reported by army officers
that actual withdrawal operations
were under way at Ell Vale, the south
ern outpost of the punitive expedi-
ton in Mexico and at San joaquin, be-
tween Ell Vale and the field headquar-
ters at Colonia, Dublan.
Predictions that the entire expedi-
ton will begin its march to Columbus,
n. NJ, within the next few hours, were
made by army officers.
All leaves of absence granted to ma
tional guard officers and enlisted men
in this district have been ordered ex-
tended thirty days by the War De-
rartment, it was announced here to-
day. 1t is understood that the same
order has been sent to all commands
in the southern department.
The order was interpreted as an in
dication that the national guard troops
would be sent home from the Mexican
border soon.
All supplies billed to Americans in
the Casas Grandes, Colonia Dublan
district and sent to Juarez for trans
portation over the Mexico Northwest
ern Railroad have been ordered held
at Juarez and no further shipment of
supplies will be made over this road
for the punitive expedition.
Arrangements were also being made
in Juarez today for sending all avail
able freight cars to Casas Grandes to
bring out the stock of goods and sup
piles from the stores of the Ameri-
can Mormons and others who have
been supplying the American troops
in Mexico.
A dispatch Of four empty motor
truck trains Of thirty trucks each
from Columbus during the last twen-
ty-four hours was taken here to mean
early withdrawal The pitching of a
number of large tents at Columbus for
housing equipment; ordinance, mer-
chandise and other army stores also
was considered an indication Of the

Brains Mexican for Attacking wife.

Greeley.-G. Valdez, a Mexican, is
in the Greeley hospital with a gapine
wound in his head. made by the sharp
edge of an axe welded by Thompson
Epperson, proprietor of hotel here.
Epperson is tentatively under arrest
on the charge of assault with a deadly
weapon. Valdez is not expected to
live. The attack arose out of an al.
legged affront by the Mexican upon the
19-year-old wife of Epperson while a
guest at the hotel. 1t is claimed that
the Mexican attempted to force Mrs.
Epperson into his bed room and when
she screamed and told her husband OF
the attempt. Epperson ordered the
Mexican from the house, offering him
back the money he had paid for the
room, but the man refused to go and
showed fight. The proprietor then
picked up an axe and struck him a
blow on the head that opened the
skull and exposed the brain. Epper-
son then gave himself up to the of
