JOCKEY IS SUSPENDED
Stewards Not Satisfied With Way Car
 roll Rode Poilu-Trainer Jake Eyer On Carpet Also.

New Orleans, Jan. 16.--The Dem
 ack- Overland Handicap, the feature
 of the fair grounds yesterday, went
 to EnmitE, the favorite. after d thrill
 ing stretch duel with Bullett Proof.
 Enmity, despite his heavy impost,
 raced to the lead at the start and
 held it easily until leaving the back
 stretch. There Boyle challenged with
 Bullett Proof and closed toward the
 leader in q manner that predicated
 victory.
 Through the final eighth the two
 were vigorously driven, and In the
 final strides Enmity was forced into
 the heavier going in the middle track
 WarrinStons superior hOrSemanShip
 prevailed then, for he lifted his mount to a nose victory at the end. Siesta, which had raced forwardly through out, finished a distant third, but held the remainder of the contestants Safc.
 Another eastern rider and trainer were the subjects of official displeas- ure after Poilu had displayed what appeared to be a startling form re- versal in the sixth. Poilu, a heavily backed favorite was at no time se- lous contender during the mile and a furlong journey and was beaten ten lengths. He lacked early speed and raced along the outer rail for the greater part of the, race. Carrolrs natually awkward riding posture was accentuated in his effort to keep his mount on the dry fast path which prevailed there. The effort did not satisfy the stewards and Carroll was ; immediately suspended and Trainer Jake Eyer ordered to appear before them today. SpeeGster won the race after providing his own pace.

O'NEIL 10 COACH
 COLUMBIA ELEVEN
Syracuse Mentor Secured to Teach Football at Morningside Heights

Buck O'Neill, famous as d football coach. and especially as mentor of the championship Syracuse eleven. will guide the football destnies of the Columbia University football team next fall, according to an announce- ment issued last night by Lester C. Daniclson, graduate manager Of ath letics on Morningside Heights. He succeeds Nelson Metcalf. O'Neil. a graduate of Williams college, has had seventeen years of coaching experience and is undoubtedly one of the ablest and most successful coaches in the country today. It has been known for some time that the Colum bia grid iron authorities have been hot on the trail of O'Neill.
 O'Ncill had come to be regarded as more or less of a fixture at Syracuse, due to his connection with the Salt City university for the last seven years. The success of Orange teams have been attributed in no small measure to the guiding powers of the New York lawyer and there can be no doubt that his loss will be big blow to the football prestige of Syra cuse. The official announcement. is sued last night by Lester C. Daniel son, regarding the signing of O'Neill reads as follows:
 ''The Columbia University Athletic association announces that Frank J. O'Neill has been secured as head coach of the football team for next season. MT. O'Neill will be in New York city throughout the football sea son and will take active charge of the squad.

WEALTHY GERMANS
 , FACE MARY TAXES
New Emergency Levy and Income and Inheritance Tax Is Reducing
 Moderate Fortunes.

Berlin, Jan. 16.-The lot of the a hard one under the new emergency levy and income and inheritance taxes. Dr. Felix Pinner financial writer of the Berlin Tageblatt est- mates that under these taxes a Ger man industrial fortune of 10.000,0O0 marks would be reduced by 1925 to 3,114,OO0 marks. This would mean that the state had taken nearly r. 100000 marks by various forms of taxation designed to solve the trenl en- dous financial problem which Ger many faces. Of the amount so col lected by the state Dr. Primer est- mates that 2,S27.900 marks would be taken taxes on war profits while the emergency levy would take 2,
 1000 marks. This would leave the millionaire about 5,500,000 marks at the end of the 30-year period in which this levy would be collected,
 pr. Primer points out, however, that the older industrial leaders who own most of the German industries probably would die in the first 10 years of the 30-year period. where
 upon that part of the levy then re-
 maininy unpaid would be taken by the state.
 If the owner of this fortune were to die, say in 1925 and should leave but one son, the son would have to pay to the state as inheritance tax ; 1.2SG, 900 marks. The balance after all taxation had been completed is placed by pr. Primer at 3,114,O 900 marks which the family of the indus trial leader would have left to con- tinue their business.
 bc TN, nf f0 nT. Il0ints out that this would be insufficient to continue an industry which in peace times had required d capital of I,- 00O,0U0, and that this operation would weaken the productive power of in dustrial concerns by over liquidation of their wealth. "rhe high apital taxes will saw off the limb upon which income and industrial taxes should sit,' concludes Dr. Primer.
