Tax Reduction.

William Jennings Bryan predicted
the passage of the soldiers bonus

in an address before meeting of the
National Democratic Club at the

that it would be more active the

He said that he remembered the
time when one could sit in the House

on account Of the monotony, but that

ing the present session.

In the assignment of committees in
the United States Senate, Senator o.
E. Weller of Maryland was placed
on the committees on banking and
currency, on commerce, on naval af-
fairs, on the District Of Columbia and
on manufactures. It is the general rule
In the Senate that a senator Is placed
on not more than one or two major
committees, but Senator Weller Is on
three or four of greatest Importance.
Senator Weller is the ranking repub-
lican member on the banking and
currency committee, being the next In

of Connecticut, who In now the chair
man Of this committee.
He Is on the commerce committee,
which has charge of. all legislation

Ing the rivers and harbors bill, the

This is very valuable committee for
the development of Baltimore's COM

His assignment to the great COM
mittee on naval affairs is likewise of
much interest to Maryland, because
of the location In Maryland of the
Indian Head proving ground, and a
number of other Navy and Army es-
Establishments and activities which are

CATHEDRAL QUOTA
FOR D. CLEFT OPEN
Campaign Workers Want City
to Set Mark for Rest of
United States.

washington must set the mark for
the remainder OF the country to shoot
at in the matter of subscribing tn
the fund to build the National Cathe-
oral, according to a statement today
oy NeWoold Noyes, local campaign
manager, in announcing that there
Will be no set quota for the District.
The campaign formally opened Fri
day night with a dinner OF workers
at the Willard Hotel.
THE national goal of the National
Cathedral Foundation" he said, ia
sl0,000,000. Washington's share of
that amount is represented by a large
question mark for many reasons Il
is the first time in the history of
cathedral building that a national
campaign has been undertaken. The
old world cathedrais were built by
subscriptions of the neighboring COM
nunity. They were necessarily hun
dreds or years in building. We wish
TO hntsh the building of our cathedral
In f1Ve years To do that the entire
country must help. What other cities
do TO build the cathedral will depend
upon Washington's response in the
coming campaign. 1t will set mark
Cross-Sectfon of Nation.
in sense Washington is a cross
section of American wealth and its
residents are citizens of every large
city in the United States. For thar
reason a Washington campaign takes
on many of the aspects of a country
wide appeal. More than four million
dollars has been raised for the ca
thedral. most Of 1t in Washington. How
much more can be collected in ten
days Is matter which we Of the
campaign committee wish, very
frankly, to leave to the citizens OF
Washington to decide. We feel very
sure that the answer of the COM
munity to the question ''What is to
be Washington's share Of the cost of
building the national cathedral?" Will
be splendid inspiration to the rest
of the country to reach the goal of
S10,000,000 within the prescribed
time"
Funds Go to Building
Because the expenses for the Wash
ington campaign for the National
Cathedral Foundation are paid out OF
a fund raised for this purpose by
friends of the cathedral, the Wash
ington campaign committee is able
to assure contributors that their do
nations will apply directly To tho
building of the cathedral itself.
Careful estimates have been made
Of the cost of each portion of the
cathedral down to the individual
stones. This will enable each person
who contributes to the building Of
the cathedral to measure his contri-
button to inches or feet of stone.
Just what portion Of this cost of
the cathedral Washington viii as
sumo has not been fixed. The most
popular suggestion that has come
from the citizens of the District is
that Washington give the central
tower.

MAIL FRAUD QUIZ
HOLDS TRIO HERE
MiSSourians Arrested in Pri-
vate Pullman on Cheyenne
Indictments.

Three arrests on indictments in
Cheyenne, Wyo.. were effected yester-
day in case which. postal inspectors
allege, involves one of the most in
tricate mail frauds.
Ned McNab, r. w. Skipper and AL
bert Campion. all of Kansas City, NO..
were taken from their private Pull
man car in the yards OF the Pennsyl-
vania railroad, opposite the bureau of
engraving and printing. The car was
fitted up elaborately for the comfort
of prospective patrons"
According to Postal Inspector Coch-
rane of Kansas City, who swore out
the warrants on the basis of the in
dictments, the evidence included al
legations that the men had represent
ed themselves as representatives of
a large oil company, anxious to OBJ
tain leases from individuals owning
land in certain sections of Oklahoma
The oil company is said to have
claimed it could not obtain land from
the government but could lease it
from individuals.
Say Fee Was Charged.
The men not only represented them
selves as the representatives of the
oil company, II is charged. but also
exacted service fee for picking out
the land for alleged prospective vic
Tins. They could get the land for
the individuals who could lease it to
the company. The charge lis that
they misrepresented themselves in
stating they were agents of the oil
company and that the land which
they exacted a service fee for picking
out was not really oil land at all,
on the basis of a biologists report in
oklahoma, but simply cut timber
land.
According to the postal inspector,
the men represented themselves as
government agents also in land
deals. They were arraigned before
United States Commissioner George
H. Macdonald, who set bond at SO, 200
in each case.
Deputy Marshals Weaver and Clark
son accompanied Inspector Cochrane
in making the arrest.
Judge T. T. Ansberry, former repre-
sentative from Ohio, was retained as
counsel by the men arrested. A for
NAL denial of any fraudulent scheme
was issued through Judge Ansberry
last night. The men held that the
plan was open and aboveboard and
any one carrying on transactions
through them was fully acquainted
with all details.
