Salt Lake.-"You may announce that
l admit my identity as Milton u.
Joseph newspaper men were told
Thursday by the man who has insisted
hat he was Captain j. u. Myers since
his arrest In Miami. Fla, several
months ago for an alleged embezzle-
nent OF $54, 333.1O from the Contfnen-
tai National bank In March of 1914.
With this admission the question as to
whether Myers arrest was a matter
Of mistaken identity is cleared. Opin-

Myers was in fact Joseph, and while
many persons who knew the former

SOLDIERS BONUS
REACHES SENATE.
PLAN CARRIES NO ADDITIONAL
TAXATION FEATURES, CUTS
BIG SUM FROM ESTIMATES
Senator Mccumbers Measure Pro-
vIdes Adjusted Service Pay But
No Cash Payment II Credit
Exceed Fifty Dollars

Washlngton.-The soldiers bonus
bill was formally presented Thursday
In the senate by Chairman McCumber
Of the finance committee with an ac-
companying report placing the prob
able cost to the federal government at
kS,845, 1853. 481. spread over period Of
forty-thres years from next January /.
This Is approximately $25OOO0, 900 less
than the estimate under the house bill,
which was SA.O9s, 719,35O, payable over
twenty years
The senate bill estimate was pre-
pared by treasury experts and is based
on the theory that rs per cent of the
Ass, 1919 veterans who would be eligi-
Bile for compensation would elect the
adjusted service certificate option,
221 per cent farm. home and land set
Element, and az per cent vocational
training aid. Should all of the veter-
ANS select the certificate plan the to-
tai cost would be $4,4S6,545,975.
With reference to financing the leg
islation, Chairman McCumber's report
said it was hoped that the reduction
in governmental expenditures plus the
payment Of interest on the refunded
foreign obligations would be sufficient
to Obviate the imposition Of additional
taxation.
If 1t does become necessary TO I'M
pose additional taxes" the report con-
tinued, at is believed we can better
determine the amount OF tho neces-
sary levy and the methods Of distrib-
uting such burdens for the future at
later date when the future condition of
the treasury will be more accurately
established"
Senator McCumber explained that
an attempt had been made to reduce
to a minimum actual cash payments
under the bill during the next three
years while the treasury is engaged
In refunding the nearly seven billions
of dollars maturing government obli-
cations. The estimated cost Of the bo-
nus for those three years was $242,-
100000.
After its presentation to the senate |
the bonus bill went to the calendar, |
where it will remain until there is an
ageement to call it up. Senator Nc
Cumber and some other proponents
desire early action, but seveal Re-
publican leaders are opposed to side
tracking the tariff bill, as they expect
the fight owe the bonus to consume at
east a month and perhaps six weeks.
This measure differs somewhat from
The house bill and very widely from
he bonus bill that was reported to
The senate last year and later sent
back to the finance committee at the
'equest Of President Harding.

London.-1nfantry, cavalry, artillery
and whippet tanks took part in the
first offensive action of the British
troops on the Ulster borderland early
Sunday afternoon, when Pettigoe,
which straddles the line, though a
large part of the town is in Free State
territory, was stormed and retaken
from troops of the Irish republican
army which entered on May 30.
Reports from Belfast describe the
border countryside as swarming with
khaki. while the British general di-
reefs the operations from headquarters
on a hill outside the town.
When it became evident that the
British were moving in force against
Pettigoe, the republicans began to
withdraw; consequently there was lit
tie resistance to parties of soldiers
IN motors and ON foot who dashed
through the town.
1t is semiofficially announced that
the republicans suffered fairly neavy
losses, but the sole casualty of the
northern side was the driver or

HOOVER OBTAINS
MAXIMUM PRICE.
PRODUCERS OF EIGHTY PER CENT
OF BITUMlNOUS COAL CON-
SENT TO NEW RATE
Price Made BY Coal Companies to
Prevail During Remainder Of
Present Strike; Price ls Set
1t Three and q Half

Washington.-With conferences look
ing to price agreement for their
district still to be held with the op-
orators of producing fields in Penn
sylvania, Secretary Hoover has secur-
cd the agreement of operators produc-
ing 80 per cent of the bituminous
coal now being mined to a maximum
price Of $3.50 a ton at the mine for the
duration Of the strike.
In making this announcement Fri.
day night Secretary Hoover said he
regretted that a small minority of the
operators-representi western Ken
tucky-had refused to cooperate and
were demanding $4.25 ton, price
which he said he did not feel justified
in advising the public to accept, al
though production costs were higher
there than in other fields. The con-
have been arranged for next week,
he said. The $3.50 maximum has been
accepted by the operators of Virginia,
West Virginia, Tennessee and eastern
Kentucky, Mr.. Hoover said he had been
ADVISED while the rate Of % cents a
ton below the Garfield scale has been
accepted by the Alabama operators.
In purchasing spot coal-the prices
not affecting coal under contract
consumers can insure themselves a
square deal, Mr.. Hoover said, by check
ing freight rates together with the
maximum price established and max.
ing proper allowance for retail distri-
button cost. Consumers not receiving
fair treatment as to prices may appeal
to the department of commerce. he
said, with assurance that an inquiry in
to their cases will be instituted.
