ALL TROOPS IN U. S.
ORDERED DEMoBILIzED

on.-Demobilization of all
combat units in the United States has
been ordered, General March, chief of
staff, told the house military commit
tee. This means, he added, that ev-
cry unit Of the army in the United
States, with the exception of two reg
ular regiments held for police duty
at each camp, has been ordered de-
modified
The men affected in these orders,
General March said, were those not
already discharged of the 100, 900 men
who were in the United States when
the armistice was signed. Units re-
turning from abroad are ordered au-
tomatically to Rehabilitation as they
arrive.
Secretary Baker supplemented Cen
eral March's statement by saying it
was hoped to get the flow of troops
homeward from Europe up to between
two hundred thousand and three hun
dred thousand a month. He could not
forecast definitely when the entire
army would be returned, but said that
with the alteration Of thirty cargo YES
sells to carry troops the rapidity of
the movement could be increased.

TAX ON LUxuRIES
AND ADJUSTMENTS
Agreement Reached BY Senate And
House Conferees And Tax
On Club Dues

Washington.-Taxr rates on luxuries
semi-luxuries, amusement admissions
and club dues were agreed upon by
the senate and house conferees on the
war revenue bill. Practically all OF
| the senate's rates on luxuries and
semi-luxuries were accepted by the
house conferees, Chairman Simmons,
of the senate managers, said.
Rates in the house bill on amuse-
ment admissions in excess of 80 cents
were adopted by the conferees, the
senate managers accepting the higher
house rate, but reaching compromise
for retention of the senate rate on ad-
missions of 80 cents or less. Under
the agreement the amusement admis-
sion tax will be l cent on each 10 cents
paid up to 80 cents and 2 cents on
each dime paid in excess OF 80 cents.
The house rate of cents on each
10 cents paid for admissions to roof
gardens, cabarets and similar estab-
lishments, was adopted, as was the
house rate of rs per cent, instead of
the senate rate of 10 per cent, on the
alter boxes.
1t is estimated that about 100000
in revenue will be secured annually
from amusement admissions under the
conference agreement.
The house rate of 20 per cent on
club dues, double the tax under exist
ing law, and estimated to raise about
$4,000, 900, also was adopted by the
confereeS.

NINE PERSONS KILLED;
FIFTY OTHERS INJURED
When Huge Tank OF Molasses Elk
ploded On Boston Water Front.
Mighty Stream OF Molasses

Boston. Mine persons are known tC
have been killed and about fifty in
jured by the explosion of a huge tank
of molasses on the water front off
Commercial street.
A dull, muffed roar gave but an
instant's warning before the top of
the tank was blown into the air. The
circular wall broke into two great seq
ments of sheet iron, which were i'm
PEELED in opposite directions. Two
million gallons of molasses rushed in
a mighty stream over the streets and
converted into sticky mass the
wreckage of several small buildings
which had been smashed by the force
of the explosion.
One of the sections of the tank wall
fell on the fire house, crushing it,
Three firemen, two of whom had been
engaged in a card game on the sec
,ond floor, were buried in the ruins.
One was killed and the other two were
injured. The other half of the tank
wall crashed against the structure of
the Boston Elevated company on Com
mercial street, damaging three spans.
A train had passed over the spot but
a moment before and another a short
distance behind was stopped by the
block signal.
A small dwelling on Cops Hills ter
race, slid into the street, apparently
sucked down by the receding tide of
molasses, and woman was thrown
through window and killed.
Wagons, carts and motor trucks
were overturned. A number Of horses
were killed. The street was strewn
with debris, intermixed with molas-
ses, and all traffic was stopped.
Scores Of ambulRnces-army, navy,
police, hospital and Red Cross-were
quickly on the scene.

MOB IN BERLIN
KILLS LIEDKNECHT
sPARTAcAN LEADER SLAIN Az
TER BEING ARRESTED WHILE
BEING TAKEN TO PRISON
ROSA Luxembourg IS SHOT
Soldiers Were Taking Them To Prison
In Autos When The Mob
Attacked

Jondon.-There are apprehension
in Berlin of general strike and up
risings to avenge the deaths of DR.
Karl Liebknecht and Rosa Luxembourg
the Spartacan leaders, according TO a
Copenhagen dispatch TO the Exchange
Telegraph company.
Several more Spartacan leaders
have been arrested, but the former
chief of police, EichhoTn, is still at
large.
Berlin.-Dr. Karl Eebknecht and
Rosa Luxembourg have been killed.
When it became known that Doctor
Liebknecht and Rosa Luxembourg were
at the Hotel Eden, in the western part
of the city, a crowd rapidly congregat-
ed and stor1ned the hotel lobby to lay
hands on them. Both were spirited to
a side entrance to the hotel, but the
mob forestalled the attempt of the
troops to save Fraulein Luxembourg.
She was beaten into insensibility and
then thrown into an automobile by the
crowd, which intended to take her to
prison.
"A lew ulOGho uONA IllC SllCSI tllC
machine was halted by a second mob
and when the presence of Fraulein
Luxembourg became known, a man
jumped on the running board of the
car and shot her through the head.
The body was dragged from the au-
tomobile and carried off. 1t is sup
posed it was thrown into the canal,
but it has not been found.
In the meantime Doctor Liebknecht
was hurried into another automobile
by officers and troops and the car was
headed for the Moabit prison. While
going through the Tiergarten the ma
chine was halted by punctured tire.
Doctor Liebknecht was asked to get |
cut by the officers who intended to |
hail another automobile and continue
toward the prison. While waiting Doc |
tor Liebknecht made an attempt to |
escape and was shot dead by soldiers |
who had anticipated such an effort on |
his part.

Hundreds OF Millions OF Dollars De

Observation-Disclosures of the fed
eral constitutional prohibition amend
ment made the United States the
first great power to take legislative
action to permanently stop the liquor
traffic.
Nebraska's vote gave the necessary
affirmative threefourths majority of
the states 10 make effective the amend
ment submitted by congress in Deem
Der, 1917. 1t was followed by SINH
lar action in TIE legislatures of Mis-
souri, and Wyoming, making thirty
eight states in all which have approx
ed a dry" America. Affirmative ac-
tion by some of the ten state legis-
latures yet to act is predicted by pro
hibition advocates.
Under the terms of the amendment,
the manufacture, sale and importation
of intoxicating liquors must cease one
year after ratification, but prohibition
will be a fact in every state much ear
lier because of the war measure for
bidding the manufacture and sale Of al
coholic beverages after June 80, until
the rehabilitation of the military fore
es is completed. Under the wartime
measure, expectation of liquor is per-
mitted, but the great stocks now held
in bonded warehouses will have to be
disposed of before the federal amend
ment becomes effective.
Becomes Law January 16, 1920
Discussion as to whether the new
amendment becomes a part OF the
now that thirty-six states
have ratified it, or whether lit be-
comes a part of the basic law only |
when each state has certified its ac-
ton to the secretary of state, led to
search for precedent, which showed
that the only two amendments rati-
fed in the last half century-providing
for income taxes and direct election of
senators-were considered effective
the thirty-six state had
taken the affirmative action.
Senator Sheppard author of the pro-
nibition amendment, held that nation
