AMSTERDAM, June 2-The collision
of two submarines, one British, the
other German, in the depths of the sea
is described in German newspaper of
Essen and takes its place as one of the
strangest episodes of the great war.
Cropping in the darkness far below
the surface of the water, the two scor-
pions of the sea blindly crashed into
one another on April 10, Submarines
are blind and helpless under the water
where they cannot use their periscopes,
Realizing that they could not do battle
beneath the surface, the two vessels
rose to the surface, still locked together
by the force Of the collision,
When they reached the surface the
submarines slid apart. But both were
in such shape, according 10 the Essen
paper, that they could not give battle,
so they submerged.

WASHINGTON, June 2-The senate
finance committee, which is working on
the War Revenue Bill that is designed
to produce 81 100000, 900 of revenue to
ward the financing of the war with
Germany, decided yesterday on the re-
peal Of existing tariff provisions which
allow drawbacks to sugar refners.
The committee also decided that pop
ular priced s'moyies, y which it was at
first proposed to tax, shall be exempt
from war tax, but that owners of auto
mobiles shall make up the deficiency by
paying a tax of from $3.50 to $25 per
car, depending upon the value of the
machine. fE Es.s ~
Local Producers. Benefit
The tariff provision which now allows
drawback" to sugar refners frees
them in effect from the payment Of
duty on sugar which they import for
the purpose Of refining ard afterward
Exporting. Raw sugar imported from
Cuba or any other foreign country. is
taxed with the duty, which the refner
pays. But when he has refined the
sugar, If he exports il to foreign
country, he is repaid the duty which
he originally paid on the raw product.
To Induce Increase
The senate committee believes that
the repeating of this provision will
benefit domestic sugar producers by
increasing the amount of raw sugar
which the refners viii buy in this
country and by raising the price, as all
imported raw sugar will have TO pay
the duty with no drawback for ex.
ports, 'l. ~.
The repeal Of the drawback provis-
ion, however, will reduce federal rev
enues by about $l6000,000 u year. ~

terrific tornadoes yesterday
which killed scores of persons
and destroyed thousands Of build-
ings in the three States. For
week now tornadoes have been
spreading death and desolation
throughout the Middle West,
their frequency and destructive
ness being the worst in many
years. ~.
The city of Coalgate, Oklaho-
ma. suffered most severely yes
terday. 1t was almost totally de
stroyed by the blast which fell
upon it without warning. The
toll Of dead is as yet unknown,
but thirteen bodies have already
been taken from the ruins, and il
is feared that many more lie be-
tween the torn and shattered
houses. No less than 4500 houses
were destroyed in the city.
coffeyville Smashed
Coffeyville, Kansas, which is
not far from the Oklahoma line,
also suffered severely, 200 houses
being torn to kindling wood by
the tornado. No deaths have as
yet been reported from that city,
however. TIL. ri n
Buffalo, Springfield and Leban-
ON, three towns in Missouri, were
struck by tornadoes, but the ex-
tent OF the damage is unknown
here, telephone and. telegraph
wires being put out of commits
sion and the towns cut off from
communication with the outside
world.
Schoolhouses Demolished
In Drake, Oklahoma, FIVE out
OF one family were killed by q
tornado which destroyed two
residences. A schoolhouse filled
with children was also destroyed
but the lives of the children were
saved by the quickwittedness Of
the teacher who saw the tornado
coming and got her charges into
the cellar before the building was
torn from its foundations and
smashed to pieces.
Moore, Kansas, was another
town that. suffered from one Of
the many tornadoes that swept
this region. Three persons were
killed there. No other detail:
