NINE KILLED IN EXPLOSION.
Score More Injured by Blowing Up OF
Oil Tank at Point Breeze Plant.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 13.-Ninc
men are known to have been killed and
more than a score injured several of
whom are expected to die, in the second
serious fire to visit the big Point Breeze
plant of the Atlantic Refining company
in Il month Three more men are reported
missing and may have been burned to
death beneath flaming tanks of petrol
cum.
The fire was preceded by a terrific ex-
plosion. which drenched wOrkmen with
flaming oil before they could leap to
safety killing several instantly. Others
employed farther back from the tanks
were sprayed with the soaring petroleum
and painfully injured Only prompt ac-
ton by the company's organized rescue
squads prevented the death list from
mounting higher, witnesses declared.
A dense pail of smoke accompanied
the first blast. making it difficult for the
rescuers to reach men who were fran
tically trying to save themselves from
being burned to death.
The explosion occurred in the north
section of the yard. where several hun
bred men are employed in the manufac-
ture of naptha
Many of them work in underground
tunnels where fires that boil the crude
product into naptha are maintained.
Some of the dead were trapped in these
tunnels by veritable rivers of liquid fire
let loose upon them by the blast.

NO REDUCTION IN
RAILROAD TAXES
Senate Finance" Committee Makes
I Changes In House Revenue Bill
Tax On Candy.

WASHINGTON. Sept. b Many
house proposals for tax changes were re
lcctcd or sharply modified yesterday by
the senate finance committee Probably
the most far-reaching decision of the
committee was that to restore all trans
pOrtation taxes. but with those on freight
passenger and Pullman accommodations
in force only for 1922 at half the present
rates. The house bill provided for re-
peal of all of these levies on next Jan
uary I.
While agreeing to the house plan to re-
peal stamp taxes on perfumes, cosmetics
toilet preparations and proprietary med
icineS. the committee voted to impose a
manufacturers tax of four per cent on
toilet articles and two per cent on pro
prietary medicines, and to restore the
three per cent tax on toilet soaps and
powders which the house bill proposed to
repeal.
Five per cent reductions in the taxes
on fur articles. mOtorboats and yachts
portable electric fans and works of art
agreed upon by the house were disap-
proved by the committee. which voted to
continue the present rate of 10 per cent
| in each case.
The section of the house bill reducing
the tax on candy from five per cent ia
three per cent was amended to provide
that candy sold at wholesale for more
than 40 cents a pound should bear tax
of 10 per cent.
In accepting the house reduction from
10 per cent to per cent in the tax on
spc-tiug goods, the committee decided to
mai taxable skates. snow shoes. skis,
tobOgg&us and baseball. football and bas-
ketball equipment which were eliminated
in the house.
Under a new section added to the
house bill. the committee proposed that
the tax on chewing gum be reduced from
three per cent to two. The house meas
use made no change in this levy.
The house provision repeating all of
the sO-called luxury taxes was accepted.
but the committee deferred action on the
proposal to impose manufacturers tax
on a number of the articles on which a
retail tax is now imposed.

mittee reporting on Senate Bill S
eighteen sir expressed similar view.
This correct statement of situation
was accepted and acquiesced in by
consuming public. However. tele-
graphic announcement of President
Harding's recent interview with In
terview Commerce Commission was
unfortunately unduly emphasized by
newspapers and has resulted In SER
ious1y checking coal storage In an
ticipation Of freight reduction. IN
Utah such reduction very unlikely
because State Public Utilities Com
mission refused permission last
freight rate increase to apply on coal
moving wholly within State. Coal
mines this field working only twenty
to twenty-five per cent time and
further reductions would be COM
pletely demoralizing. II not incon-
sistent with policy your department
would very much appreciate an ex-
preston from you as to whether or
not you have information regarding
Immediate coal freight decrease in
Western States as well as your views
concerning summer storage. IN fact
permit us to suggest that an official
expression to Associated Press and
others from Washington as to wheth-
er or not any proposed freight re-
duction will apply to coal would re-
suit in clarifying present uncertainty
which is causing stagnation In coal
business. Continued intention on
i part of consuming public to delay
storing will unquestionably bring
about serious conditions this winter.

Measuring Party" De-
cided Success

The home, of Mrs. Sam Wern-
er, who is noted for her hospi-
tality, was the scene of beauti-
fully planned reception under
the name of a measuring party"
last Saturday from 4 to 8 p. m.
given for the benefit of our City
Cemetery. The house, Veranda
and grounds were decorated with
Potted plants, Out flowers and
japanese Lanterns which en-
hanced the beauty of the home
which is so delightfully."- fitted
for entertaining. Mrs. Werner
was assisted in receiving and
entertaining the guests by her
daughter, Miss Rosalie Werner,
aud Mrs. Oarl Werner. Some
rare music furnished by Mrs.
Everett Roberts Pianist, and
Miss Irma Hampton Soloist, and
ohther selections given by Miss
Corrinne Crick and others con-
tributed to the evenings enter
tainment. Elegant refresh
ments, consisting of Coffee and
Sandwiches We're served IN the
Drawing Room. The invitations
to the affair were very unique
sent with each invitation was a
small sock in which to put one
cent for each inch of the Stature
of the ones invited, and a basket
was plat ed at the main entrance
of the house for a receptacle of
the returned socks.
The number responding to the
Invitations was evidenced byth
contents Of the basket which
amounted to the handsome sum
Of $1l0.65. Mrs. Werner desires
to thank the public for their
hearty response and the LADIES'
Memorial Association also wishes
to thank Mrs. Werner for her
generous hospitality, and that of
her home for this most worthy
cause.

Still Freight
Rates Go Up

The N. @. & st. L. Ry has
been granted another raise in
freight rates by the Railroad
Commission. The freight rate is
already so high now that the
farmer cannot ship his products
to the market and have anything
left after paying the freight. 1t
is the same with the manufact-
urer. We use to pay 55 cents on
the 100 pounds of freight from
Nashville, now we have to pay
$l.05 on the hundred pounds and
with the increased rate, God
knows how much we will have to
pay. The railroad Companies
are asking their men to take a
cut in wages, claiming that they
cannot pay the present wages,
when the same wages was paid
about two years ago and freight
rates were just about half and
then the stockholders declared q
good dividend at the end of the
year.
How long do the railroad Com
panies think they are going to
deceive the public and make
them pay enormous freight and
passenger rates. The public
already are beginning TO open
their eyes to the real situation
and it is up to the Press of the
State to get the real facts of the
case and put it before the pub
lie, and not sit idle and do moth
ing. If the Press of Tennessee
had opened up the ball along
time ago, the public would not
have the burden of paying such
eXhorbitant freight and pas
seneer rates.
