 Ore of the dominant figures to whom all experienced observers aGuH ir,H aboIlt the predicted change IS GeIleAai Chang Tsi-lin, military governor ol N(anchuria, whose influence in the capital is now paramount: +b.+ Gen.
 The prevailing beHef IS that Ish- eral Chang is favorable to the restof- ETicn to the Chinese throne Of the poy ErnDeror who has long been prlson- CT in the Forbidden City o+.+;o,
 There was widespread eXpecldtloH
 that Chang would inaugurate in the spring or early summer a moVetnehI ta to put the boy &mperor back on Itie throne but 1t has not LhuS AnA A terlaliZed. -
 This in turn has given way to 1a- tern1,l dissensions between Chang ana other leaders Cabinet changes nave ensued and there has been talk ol
 suppressing the independent move nent at Canton
 While the newspapers discuss the whole subject quite freely yet enere ere is nothing authoritative and little op- nortunity to substanuate the reports
 So freely circulated

D0N'TS FOR
 TRANSFERS

Chicago, July 7-Despite the com ing of the automobile there are still thirty thousand horses working today on the streets of Chciago. Faithful hard at best, particularly in the very hot weather, observes H. D. Roberts, secretary of the Chicago Anti-Cruelty Society. He suggests the following t'don'ts'' to teamsters here and in other cities.
 Don't drive fast. The few min utes you save may cost you a horse.
 Don't put on heavy loads.
 Don't let your horse stand in the sun. Even if he has to stand for a few minutes pick out a shady place if possible to do so.
 Don't fail to water your horse as often as possible It will not hurt him if he is worked. If you are going to let him stand for a while, only give him a small drink.
 Don't use a horse hat unless it has canopy top. The ordinary kind is worse than none.
 If you use a sponge or cloth, see that it is kept wet: If it is dry it is worse than no protection. Don't fail to watch your horse closely. If he gets sick don't wait. Get him into the shade. take off the harness and bridle. Wash out his mouth. Sponge him off with cold water Put cold water or ice on his head, and send for a doctor Prompt action may save him.
 Don't wash your horse at night when he comes in from work Wipe him off with a damp. sponge Let him cool off.
 Don't keep him in hot stable at night He must cool off at night, in order to be fit for work next day. Don't forget that your horse is a good friend and faithful servant ''See that he is entitled to all the care and attention you can give him. ''

EXPECT TO CUT
 TAXES A BILLION
(Continued from Page One)

Continued from Page One) legal device to avoid payment of gov ernment taxes it is learned
 Estimates of the internal revenue bureau today showed that large tax payers have wiggled out of taxes amounting to $1.OO0,000,0 and more.
 The administration's confidence that within a year taxes can be low cred, is predicted upon these supposi- lions:
 Congress will adopt a plan now be- ing drafted by the Internal Revenue Bureau to make the manuacturers liable or luxury taxes, and thereby save the government huge losses for which the retailer is responsible.
 Revenue Commissioner Blair will collect within the next 12 months 1000, ,O00 of back or delinquent taxes either from those who have claimed deductions, or those who have wilfully refused or avoided payment of their obligations.
 Budget Director Dawes will slash government expenditures in a sum which may reach as high as $1,O0O,- 0o0,000 by merging bureaus, cutting out ''red tape" eliminating wasteful and reckless spending and by reduc- ing personnel
 Administration leaders are launch ing into an economy drive today with two definite objects in view One IS the elimination of all possible ex- penditures; the other is turning into cash of millions of dollars worth or surplus and unused materials of every sort and description.
 Practically every department and independent bureau in Washington has now or will have shortly, some thing for sale. Gen. Charles G. Dawes. budget director, is the econ omy Slgineer in charge. He has or 'dered a survey made of all depart ments and an accounting turned in that the government may carry out widespread liquidation.
 There are millions of dollars worth of materials scattered from Maine to California and from Canada to the Gulf. Much of it represents pur- chases made with a prodical hand during the war hysteria, at excees- lively high prices, and must now be turned into cash at a net loss to the government of from 25 to 75 per per cent.
 Postmaster General Hayes has found that the government wastes half a million dollars annually in its telegraph bill and will soon take steps to bring about the consolidation of the governments wire business into central office The Brown re- organization committee is engaged in surveying governmental departments and bureaus with the object in view of consolidating some bureaus and eliminating others
 The government is giving up wher- ever possible rented quarters and housing its offices in governme ment buildings.
 These steps are major ones in the economy drive. There are smaller ones being taken in every department to cut expenditure to the bone and realize cash in hand on things that are no longer of material value to the government

In company with Harry Tanner. superintendent at Fish Creek. they went up the river Mon day and expect to remain until the latter part of the week.
 w. C.

He has also planned tdN greatly increase operations on the Fish Creek prop erty and will make trip in this connection to New York shortly after his return from the mine. Mir. Tan ner has had many years of success in the mining business and his entry into this camp means much to the upbuilding of its prosperity. 'Returns from the twos shipments of ore re- gently sent out from the Fish Creek mine showed such substantial pro- fit that he is satisfied the property will make permanent and very lu- crative producer by the application of modern mining methods and de. velopment on a more extensive scale,
 The Alaska Premier consists, of 10 claims which adjoin the New Akska on the south and east. The group was located by Ed. Fernald and Wm. McGrew, and MT. Tanner and associ- ates became interested in it last fall through a report made by Harry Tan ner after he had thoroughly exam ined the property. The work done consists of surface stripping and shallow cuts. but these have made such a favorable showing that sub stantial development work tf war ranted.
