dered today, the attorney general will take further action, presumably carry ing the issue direct to President Hard ing. Department of justice officials have been advised that Marshal Pal mer nas practically defied the attor- ney general, announcing that he would not resign either voluntarily or when requested to do so.
 Daugherty Makes Statement.
 The only statement that waa mado for publication at the department of justice was:
 Marshal Palmer will be given suf- ficient time-a reasonable time--to re- ply othe attorney generals request for his resignation. He is a federal officer. serving under the attorney general and bound to reply to any message sent him by his superior of ficer. If he fails to make a reply in reasonably short time it will mean an additional record against him.,
 At tho attorney generals office it was evident that MT. Daugherty is preparing to demonstrate that his ad- ministration cannot be dehed by any officer acting under him. I @ President Can Remove Him.
 Of course, MT. Palmer, being a United States marshal, cannot be oust- ed except by order of the president But if Marshal Palmer thinks he can beat Attorney General Daugherty through defiance, he i, reckoning. without hia host.

DEATH LIST. HITS 40

Two More Unidentified Bodies Are
 Taken From Wreckage in St. La
 zaire Tunnel Today. " Paris. Oct. 2, (By Associated Press). The death list in the St. Lazaire tunnel disaster probably will approxi- mate 40. Two burned bodies were recovered today when the last of the wreckage was removed. one of these was identified and the other is believed to be that of woman.
 The bodies recovered numbered 50 and ten persons are missing. Some of them may possibly have been saved, but they have not communi- cated with the police. There have been number of arms, legs and parts of burned bodies found, which may have belonged to the recovered bodies but they are thought to be all that was left of the missing per sons.
 Identification in several cases was made by documents which had not been burned, although the bodies were charred beyond recognition.

ANOTHER DEATH MYSTERY
Chicago Police Have Case of Second Boy Found Hanging in Basement at His HOme

Chicago, Oct. 7.-The mysterious death by hanging of two fourteen year old boys here in less than week offer ed the authorities today one of the most puzzling problems they have faced for months.
 While investigation was still in pro- gress to clear up the death of Samuel Burlington, found dead in a closet of his home last. Saturday an almost iden- tical case was presented last night when the body of Edward Knaus was found hanging in the basement of his home
 The Burlington youth was an expert in knot tying while the knaus boy all most daily played with lassoes, the po- lice were told. In neither case, so far as the police could learn was there a motive for suicide.

 medicinal or any other purposes has been agreed upon by republican lead CTS as a part of the new tax revi- sion program. This is an increase of $1.80~ a gallon and is expected to yield s75,000,O0O additional revenue each year. <
 The proposal to repeal the $2,ooo abandoned on the ground that it would work too great a hardship on the small corporations. The leaders also were said to have decided on a flat corporation income tax of Is per cent in place of a ten and 15 per cent rate.
