WAR Vets WIFE
COLLAPSESIN
STREET
Expectant Mother, Penniless,
Husband in Hospital, Vet
erans' Bureau Deaf.

A 80 per cent cut in their income
was too much for Guerine Tavalese,
war veteran, and his wife, Melissa,
and both of them today are lying
in Washington hospitals penniless.
Exhausted after they had waged
a futile fight at the Veterans
Bureau to have theft present $3.50
per month placed back at $95,
where it was two weeks ago, Mrs.
Tavalese, tainted in front Of the
Harrington Hotel last night.
Being an ,expectant mother, the
young woman of twenty-seven years
was admitted to Casualty Hospital,
while her husband was removed to
the Naval Hospital. He is in the
advanced stages of tuberculosis.
Three months ago Tavalese was
discharged from Walter Reed Hos
pital. He bought a small home
near Selone, Va, but due to his
tubercular condition, was unable to
work for his wife and five-year-old
son. Their only income was the
monthly compensation check from
the Veterans Bureau.
The young couple came to Wash
ington Tuesday to make an appeal
over the discouraging cut in their
income. They were given lodging
at the Shepherd House, Tenth and
E streets, by the legion.

CAR CD. MERGER
ACT ORDERED
REPORTED
Measure Provides Consolida-
ton If IS Per Cent Of Stock
holders Favor 1t.

The Ball street railway merger
bill was ordered favorably reported
by the House District Committee
yesterday The measure has already
passed the Senate, and, II favor
able action can be gotten for 1t on
the floor of the House at this ses-
sion a merger of the Washington
street railways can be accomplished
Immediately.
The bill provides for merger
of the Washington Railway and
Electric Company and the Potomac
Electric Power Company if Is per
stock in both companies give their
consent. The bill provides that the
merger of the corporation Is au-
thorized, subject to the approval Of
the Public Utilities Commission, to
issue stocks and bonds or Other Sc
curities necessary to the consolida-
ton.
The bill permits the Washington
Railway and Electric Company and
the Capital Traction Company and
all other companies in Washington
to merge.
It imposes an excess profits tar
instead of the per cent tax now
levied on gross incomes. The for
mer is SO per cent on all earnings
above per cent, and IS per cent
on all earnings above per cent.
Under this provision, it would
equalize the net incomes Of the
companies. At the present time,
the Capital Traction Company is
able to pay IL per cent or more
in dividends, while the Washington
Railway and Electric Company pays
only between s and per cent.
The measure was brought up by
Congressman Sproul of Illinois
who has fought consistently during
this session for a street car mer-
ger bill. The fact that the bill as
reported without amendments is
Identical with that which has
passed the Senate gives it fair
chance for passage by the House
at this session. This can be ac-
complished under a suspension of
the rules and it is Mr.. Sprouts
intention to make all efforts to
so bring 1t up.

AMPUTATES DEER'S LEG;
WILL TRY ARTIFICIAL ONE

PORTLAND. Pa, Feb. 22.-Dr.
III. Morgan, a veterinarian of this
place. had the unusual experience
Of etherizing deer and amputating
its broken left hind leg above the
hook.
The deer apparently was chased
out of the woods by a dog, and
broke leg on the Delaware river
shore, later being found Laundering
in the water. It was lassoed by
W. p. Gibble, of Columbus, N. j.,
who took it to his winter camp,
and there the operation was per-
formed. 1t is now able to stand up
and eat. and Mr.. Gibble expects to
try to get an artificial leg for it.

Uniformed Men Stationed in

BY international News Service.

NEW YORK. Feb. 22.-Special
police guards will be stationed in
all Roman Catholic churches here
for the remainder of the Lenten
season as a result of an order to
that effect issued today by Chief
Inspector William ]. Lahey.
While no definite reason for the
order was given out at headquar
tiers considerable speculation has
been aroused by the edict which
will place uniformed patrolmen in
the vestry of all churches during
services.
Persons carrying suspicious look
ing parcels will be stopped and
questioned by the police, it is said,
and officers also will watch per-
sons found lettering in the vestry
Of church buildings.
AS services are held daily during
lent, the order practically means
that patrolmen will be on duty in
churches day and night for the re-
mainder of the season.

A SHARK SCARE.

The annual shark scare has made
its appearance-this time at Coney
Island where it could get really aus
picious start. No where else could it
be launched with quite so much excite
ment as at New York city's largest
beach resort. We may expect that it
will spread speedily as result of its
high initial velocity and will soon
reach all the other beaches along the
Atlantic Coast. The fact that the
scare had its origin in the advent of
some porpoises and harmless sand
sharks will not make any difference,
of course.
The appearance of the shark scare
reminds us that it is the middle of
July and the sea serpent hasn't been
sighted yet. Surely it is time that he
was seen, undulating through the
waves and rearing hidous head 10
peer into the pjo-tholes of some
steamer. An authentic basking shark
30 feet long was caught the other day
off the Florida coast. If such crea-
lures as that are getting up into our
waters it would seem that the sea
serpent must also be making his
regular summer cruise northward.
Anyhow the supreme court has done
its best to insure that an American
steamer shall sight him first

A HEALTHY SIGN FOR IRELAND

The outcome OF the recent election in
ireland, if analysed numerically, might
be disappointing to those who had hoped
that it would show popular sentiment to
be Overwhelmingly behind the Free
State government and thus spike the
guns OF the De Valera Iepubicans. For
the Free Staters succeed in gaining only
few more than third OF the seats in
the next Dali. the Irish Congress. As
compared with the total number of rep
rcsentatives elected, the So Free Staters
who will be members OF that legislative
body when next it convenes might seem
to constitute hopeless minority so
lar as carrying out the agreement with
Great Britain is concerned.
But no such distressing interpreta-
ton should be put upon the election re-
turns. Although it is true that the Free
Skaters, as such, will be greatly in the
minority. the inference that the De Val
erists will be able TO dominate the Dali
is incorrect. As a matter of fact. the
Republicans, as such, will have less
legislative strength than the Free Staters.
Whereas the latter have obtained only
33 OF the total number of seats, the form
er gained only 34-nineteen less than
their avowcd political enemies.
