 BRITISH HEADQUARTERS IN FRANCE, April 15.

Washington. Aug. 22.-Advocates of
conseription of the country's wealth
won a decisive victory when the senate
today by vote of "A to 0, adopted the
Gerry amendment to the war revenue,
raising $40,0OO,OO0 additional revenue
from incomes.
Wealth conscription advocates won a
second victory when by vote of 80 to
20, the senate approved the so-called
Lenroot surtax on incomes between $780,
600 and $s0,0OO., The Lenroot rates OF
1875 per cent, adopted by the house
was reduced to II per cent by the SEN
ate finance committee.
After the senate, by viva voce vote
had put back into the bill all the Len
root tax rates, ON incomes from $780,
to $500,O00 in place of lower rates vo-
ted for by the senate finance committee
Senator La Toilette offered substi-
tute for the entire income tax section
of the bill.
This substitute begins with a one per
cent tax ON incomes of $4,000 and runs
to 33 per cent tax on incomes of more
than $47, 800.

z CARS WRECKED IN
SAN FRANCISCO RIOTS
Series of Riots This Morning
Get Beyond Police Control,
Many Injured

San Francisco, Aug. ga series of
riots-the most serious since the car
strike began, broke out in various parts
of San Francisco today, So serious did
the rioting become that Chief of Police
White was forced to re-organize the
department, put the policemen on 13
hour shifts and put 200 more blue
coats on strike duty
Up to IL O'Clock % cars had been
practically wrecked.
At several points the rioters got be-
yond the control of the police and re-
serves were called from central station.
Emergency hospitals in the Mission
district, south of Market street, where
all the riots occurred, were ko5t busy
all morning receiving riot victims, most
of whom had been badly beaten.
The most serious riot was staged
directly in front of the Labor Temple,
where strikers had gathered for a
meeting. Strike leaders allege that a
United Railroads car, filled with strike
breakers and guards and followed by
several Automobiles loaded with guards
stopped in front of the temple for the
purpose of starting trobule.
Immediately fight started. Strik
ers, who were preparing for meeting
in the labor temple, poured out of the
building and engaged in the fight. 1t
is estimated that two hundred men
participated in this fight, during which
heads were cracked freely by both
sides. Half dozen men were taken
to hospitals as a result.
While the police were guelling this
disturbance another serious riot began
at "a and Folsom streets, where three
United Railroads cars were stalled.
The scenes in front of the labor temple
were repeated here and dozen men
are declared to have been injured.
Meanwhile smaller disturbances had
broken out in other sections of the Mis-
sion district with similar results.
During the height of the violence
Mayor Rolph called an emergency
meeting of the utilities committee of
the board of supervisors and invited
Jesse Lilenthal, president of the
United Railroads, to attend it. Lilen-
thai accepted and will meet the city
officials at 2 p. m. Mayor Rolph an
nounced his purpose of seeking an i'm
mediate settlement of the strike.

RESUME OF THE Days
WORK IN WASHINGTON
Spectacular Blows Struck at
War PrOGts---Spies Work
In Factories

Washington, Arg. 22.-Spectaeular
blows at war profits were struck in all
governments quarters today. President
Wilson began his price fixing program
by establishing price of approximately
so a ton on bituminous coal at the mine
and expected to fix the price to retail
or and consumer soon.
Increasing demands were heard in the
senate for revision of the great tax bill
50 as to conscript wealth more heavily.
President Wilson S sweeping action in
tumbling down the price of coal only
foreshadows what the government is
ready to do in the case of other pro-
ducts-steel, oil and everything need
ed by the government.
Labor, determined to share in the pro-
fits, threaten strikes in many ship
yards and other plants. 1t is expected
however, that early adjustment of these
troubles will come.
The department of justice is increas-
ing its vigilance to ferret out German
agents who may be behind some of the
labor unrest.
1t is known that some have been dis
covered working on number of vital
war tasks-particularly aircraft produc
tion.
Arrival of the Japanese mission today
will open what may prove to be inter
esting conversations between the United
States and the mikado. However, the
need of ships-Japan IS possible contri-
button to the war at this stage is
not so acute now, owing to the speed
up order from the shipping board and
a ship building program that will call
for $1,000,000,000 more fr omcongress.
Hence, it appears likely the japanese
mission may not develop into more than
friendly call.

COAL PRICES FIXED
FOR Mine OPERATORS
Run From $l.9O at Big Veins,
Up to $3.25---Arranging
Dealers Prices

Washington, Aug. 22.-Events shap.
ed rapidly today toward relieving the
threatened coal shortage and high prices
for fuel throughout the country.
Tentative prices, averaging about
1928 ton, for home sizes, fixed by
President Wilson for coal at the mouth
of every bituminous mine went into eff
feet Prices to retailers ana consumers
will follow shortly.
II. A. Garfield, president Of Williams
College, and now chairman of the
wheat fixing board, has accepted the
post of fuel dictator, forecasted by the
United Press. His installation will fol-
low completion of his present wheat
task.
The rates of profit to be fixed by the
president is expected to be twenty
cents ton for wholesalers and fifty
cents for retailers. This, added to the
president IS prices at the mouth of mine
in the 80 coal districts of the country,
together with railroad freight and ex-
penditures of local delivery, will afford
every city working basis for figuring
the coal costs to the American home.
Costs for the average house should be
figured ON prepared sizes, which are 25
cents higher than the strun of mine
coal.
The president s prices at the mines
range from $1.90 with big coal veins
to 1926 in Washington state s smallest
veins.

ATHLETICS MAKING
SPLENDID SHOWING
Three Stars Among Pitchers
Bender In Old Form
Other Sport News
By H. @. Hamilton

New York, Aug. 22.-Anyone who
doubts the one time right of the Ath-
letics to win world s championships can
be referred today to these facts:
Charles Albert Bender, one of the
stars cut loose by Connie Mack when
he wrecked his famous team, has won
three successive games by shutouts and
has string of four consecutive victor
les. Colby Jack Coombs has been a
consistent pitcher for Brooklyn until
this season and still has enough pitch
in ability to discount many a young
hurler.
Eddie Plank turned in his uniform
only few days ago-not because he
could no longer pitch, but because he
was i'll. He was having successful
season.
There they are, the three stars of
the last Mack hope crusher, and they
were veterans when Mack decided to
drop them.
Bender s record is the most imposing.
Beginning on August sixth when he de-
feated the Cubs, six to two, the famous
Chippewa has won a straight quartet
of games. His reel of shutouts began
August IA against the Braves when he
dropped them, 3 to 0, the Braves col
lecting only four hits. On August Isl
he met the Pirates, turning them back,
three to nothing, with three hits. Yes
terday he again faced the Cubs and
this time Kilduff was the only man to
hit safely. He got one hit

of heart in the White Sox should be
