UNLIKELY
Such invitation Would Have to
Come From Recognized
Government.

There is little likelihood that the
United States would consent to
undertake mediation Of differences
between the various warning factions
Of China, as suggested by DR.. Sun
Yat-sen, head Of the south China
republic. 1t was stated in official
quarters here today.
Such an invitation would have to
come from the recognized govern
ment Of China at Picking, It was said,
before 1t could even be considered as
officially this government does not
recognize and has no dealings with
Sun.
In the opinion of some Admins.
tration officials, II all the Chinese
actions desired mediation by out.
side powers, 1t would then become
q case for joint action by the ma
tons In general.

U. S. Taboo Is Put On
Wireless Wedding
For Immigrant

Wireless marriage by proxy
is taboo at the Bureau of I'M
migration, and thus many ro-
mances will have to wait until
new immigration quotas are
effective.
The particular case in point
is that Of pretty Candid Pucci,
Of the province of Lucia in
Italy, who wants to come to
America and marry Angelo
Nencetti, Of San Mateo, Cal.
The present quota Of Italian
immigrants to the United
States is filled, but If pretty
Candid and Angelo were al
ready married she would have
no difficulty in entering the
United States.
The immigration bureau was
asked IL Candid would be per-
mitted to enter the United
States If she and Angelo were
married by wireless, and the
decision was against them.
Candid and Angelo will have to
wait.

Mrs. Kresge made no charges
other than that her husband had no
affection for her and was constantly
"pouty" over a. period Of five years.
Mrs. Kresge, with her attorney,
Howard Baldwin, accompanied by
her sister and sole witness, Mrs.

Most Of them arrived too late and

of Mrs. Kresge and Mrs. Porter, as
they were questioned on the stand,
heard nothing in the least startling.
Division of the Kresge fortune has
been made in a manner satisfactory
to Mrs. Kresge, who retains custody
Of the two minor children, but the

0elf and to give the President the
choice Of signing a bonus and q
tax reduction together or of simul-
taneously vetoing them both.
Under the rules of the Senate
this could be done. Under the rules
OF the House 1t might be difficult
to do. When, however. the tax
reduction bill leaves the House and
goes to the Senate the rules Of the
Senate will permit the accomplish
ing of this maneuver.
There is no doubt whatsoever Of

Houses for the bonus. The chances
1t this moment are for a ''radi-
ORlized" tax reduction bill with q
bonus hanging to it.
Figures ON Bonus.
Many Republicans in both houses
have been convinced by the fig
ures brought forward by Congress-
man A. Piatt Andrew of Massa.
chusetts regarding the financial
feasibility of tax reduction plus a
bonus. Mr.. Andrew takes Mr.
Melons own estimate of the cost
ct bonus, and proceeds, as he
thinks, to demonstrate that the
surplus in the Treasury, June 80,
last, plus the surplus in the
Treasury, June 80, next, plus the
expected savings N appropriations
during the ensuing fiscal year, will
amount in total to one billion dol
lars, even after taxes have been
reduced to the full extent proposed
by either Mr.. Mellon or Mr.. Garner.
This sum Of money is admitted
on any calculation to be enough to
pay for the first four years Of the
bonus. For subsequent years Mr..
Andrew relies on Mr.. Melons own
view of the productivity of the
lowered surfaces.
Mr.. Mellon has stated repeatedly
that the loss of revenue from lower.
ing the surtax will be only tenn
porary. His view is that the lowered
surtaxes will within a few years
as the high surtaxes are producing
now.
Melons View.
Therefore $100,000,O0O which will
be annually temporarily lost to the
Treasury by lowering the surtaxes
will within q few years be flowing
into 1t again. That is Mr.. Melons
view, and Mr.. Andrew adopts it as
also his own.
He argues accordingly that this
$10O,0O0,O00 will be available for
paying the annual cost Of the bonus
In the years subsequent to the
first four years: and almost every
body believes that for that cost
$1OO,000.00O will be more than
ample.
All these developments put to-
gether, including Mr.. Andrews sta
tistical flank, attack, have utterly
changed the inward character of the
tax reduction and bonus situation.
Not many days will pass before
this change will be outwardly
equally clear.
The Mellon plan in its strict
original form now seems doomed
From now forward there will be a
period of compromise and modifica'
lions and partial surrenders in an
effort to find a middle-of-the-ground
measure which will be radical
enough to get through Congress
and yet conservative" enough to

EARLY HEARING
ON HYDRO IS
LIKELY
Subcommittee to Be Named
Next Week, and Experts
to Be Called.

Consideration Of the Zihlman bill
to construct q great hydroelectric'
plant at Great Falls viii probably
be begun by a special subcommittee
Of the House District Committee
during the coming week.
It Is anticipated that this subconi
mite win be named by Congress-
man Stuart r. Reed, chairman q
the House District Committee, at
the regular meeting of the commit
tee Wednesday morning and that
immediate consideration OF the
measure will be undertaken.
Experts to Be Called.
The SUBCOMMITTEE will probably
invite members Of the army en-
gineer corps and other experts to
appear before II and testify con
corning the worth and feasibility
Of the project.
The only opposition that supporters
of the bill expect to encounter viii
be that which was indicated at
hearings on similar project befoi,
the Federal Water Power Commits
sion two years ago. The commits
sion was told by representatives Of
the Washington Railway and Elec
trio Company and the. Potomac
Electric Power Company that the
generation Of hydro-eiectric power
and it's distribution as outlined in
the Tyler project is not econom
ically practicable.
Companies Own Lands.
Investigation showed that these
corporations, through q subsidiary
corporation, own the land in Vir.
ginia and Maryland adjacent to
Great Falls. They also claim some
."e"sh y Of the water power AT
that point.
Further investigation showed that
In 1905 representatives of these
same corporations appeared before
the State Corporation Commission
of Virginia during hearings on the
plea Of the Old Dominion Railway
Company for access to Great Falls
through the lands of the subsidiary
corporation.
At this hearing and later before
the supreme court of appeals Of Vir-
ginia, the representatives of the two
local utilities corporations gave tes-
timony absolutely in contradiction to
their present stand. They declared
that the land at Great Falls had
enormous value for power purposes
and testified as to the ease with
which the development Of the power
could be effected. They stated that
plans for such development had
already been made.
Essential, Court Held.
The court. passing on the case
said:
1.-THE evidence tends to show that
the land sought to be condemned
Is essential to the appellant (the
Great Falls Power Company for
the development Of itsA water power
and that II taken the Power Com.
pany would be compelled to change
its plans entirely"
The army engineers, the Water
Power Commission and about ten
independent investigators are unan-
imous in the conclusion that the
power which is now going to waste
at Great Falls should and can be
made available for use.
