BROMLEY'S THIRD
AIRPLANE CRASHES

BY the Associated Press.
MuROC, Calf, May 24.-The third
airplane constructed for Harold Bromley
for a proposed Tacoma-to-Tokio flight
crashed here today like its two prede.
cessors and H. w. Catlin, test pilot OF
a Burbank Aircraft company, was pos
sibly fatally burned in the fire that fol-
lowed the smash-up.
The jinx apparently has been on
Bromley ever since he came here last
year with the support of Tacoma bust
ness men to arrange for a transpacific
flight.
In the monoplane City Of Tacoma
Bromley got as far as Tacoma, the
starting place. But on the take-of for
Toxic the plane fell and was wrecked.
Bromley was unhurt.
Another similar monoplane lost its
tailpiece when taken into the cir at
Burbank and in the crack-up the late
Herbert Fahy, chief test pilot Of the
construction company, was seriously in
jured.
Bromley was on the ground today
when Catlin took the third City Of Ia
coma aloft with 900 gallons of gasoline
and crashed.
Bromley's plans were undetermined.

rowing from the Treasury.
Maj. Donovan made the following es-
Inmates of tax collections in 1882:
Intangible tax, $2,875,000.
Street railway tax, etc. $500, 900.
Miscellaneous receipts, $3,500,000.
Unexpended balances Of appropria-
lions, S350.000.
United States contribution, $4,000, 900.
Total, $18,115,000.
Any difference between this sum and
the amount of the appropriation must
come out Of the tax rate for an in
crease in the lump sum. 1t Is esti-
mated that in 1892 there will be a total
of 81 ,349, 000, 900 worth OF real and per-
sonal property on which taxes may be
levied A rate Of $1.70 on this assess
ment in 1892 would yield $22 1888 900 in
general funds. Adding this to the
other estimated receipts, the total Is
SAL ,048,000. To this must be added the
gas tax, water revenues, trust and mis-
cellaneous funds mentioned above which
would bring 1t up to $47,622,540. II
this is what a $1.70 rate would produce
matter OF simple subtraction will show
that the estimates just made by the
department heads must be slashed
roughly 100000 il the $1.70 rate Is
to be maintained in 1892.
Estimates Rate at sass.
Maj. Donovan pointed out that under
his 1882 estimated total tax assessment
each cents of the tax rate repre-
sents $674 500, SO that another simple
calculation will show that the tax rate
required to take care of the depart
mental estimates plus the other annual
expenses not covered in the estimates
would be $2.35. The computations are
all based on the Federal lump sum re-
naming at $4,000 900.
These estimates will be placed before
the Commissioners at their board meet
ing tomorrow and they will start their
annual consideration OF them before
sending them up to the Budget Bureau
After the Budget Bureaus views on the
estimates are obtained they will be
transmitted to the next session Of Con.
gress.

ENUMERATION NEARLY ENDED.


By the Associated Press.
Enumeration has been virtually COM
pleted in the cities Of the United States
and the 1880, census is entering a phase
which might be termed 1.-The chamber
of commerce check"
The Census Bureau here ruled that
dissatisfaction of a chamber of COM
merce or other such civic organization
with census results in its city should
not be considered SUFFICIENT cause for q
complete recount.
However, the bureau held that every
city should have ample opportunity TO
make as good a showing as possible.
Orders, therefore. went out from head
quarters here that where chambers OF
commerce or civic clubs could furnish
lists of names of persons claiming that
the census enumerators had not called
at their homes, supervisors must check
with those listed.
This check is now in progress in
many places. While it Is revealing that
some were skipped in the first enumera-
ton, it is also establishing the fact that
many complaints were mistakenly
made.

Tuesday, the conferees on the measure
finished their report by agreeing on
final draft of the new flexible provision.
1000 words long, made one important
and several minor changes in the draft
agreed upon Friday.
The major change provides that
whenever the President fails to approve
or disapprove a Tariff Commission rec
on1mendation for an increase or de-
crease in a statutory rate within the
60-day period laid down, the commits
sion rate would take effect 10 days
after expiration of the time given the
President.
Fear Conference Threats.
While Republican leaders were prais-
ing the measure finally approved in con-
ference they were fearful of threats to
return the bill to conference. Demo-
Gratis are prepared to make points OF or
der against rates on cherries. cheese,
rayon and watches on the ground that
the conferees exceeded their authority
in determining these duties.
Parliamentarians differ as to the eff
feet of the sustaining of any Of the
points of order. Some say IT would
open the entire bill to change in con-
ference. Others contend 1t would limit
the further negotiations to the item or
items involved in the motion.
Friends of the bill are afraid a re-
opening would permit of another vote IN
the House on the lumber duty and are
for that reason endeavoring to prevent
any of the points OF order being sus-
tanned. They are caught between rec
ord vote in the House for free lumber
and an insistent demand by Northwest
Senators for the lumber levy. They
must hold the Northwest group in line,
it is argued, to save the BILL
If the points of order are not sus-
tanned. the vote in the House will come
on adoption or rejection OF the con-
ference report embracing the lumber
duty and separate vote will be avoided.
House Republican leaders are confident
of the outcome on this If the Senate
approves the report without returning
Il to conference.
Plans Vote on Lumber.
Representative Garner of Texas, the
Democratic leader, and conferee on
the bill, said he would move separate
vote on lumber If the parliamentary
situation permitted it in the House:
Hawley believes the new flexible clause
"meets the problem" by enabling the
Tariff Commission to speed up its work.
Under it, he said, the President would
not be required to go over the entire
work of the commission to determine
a rate within the so per cent limitation
because the commission would fix the
rate.
The new clause would make the COM
mission sort of quasi-judicial body
somewhat along the lines OF the Inter-
state Commerce Commission, Hawiey
added.
Senator Borah. of Idaho, leader of
the Republican independents and a
champion of the coalition flexible plan
restoring rate changing power to Con-
gress, expressed the opinion that the
conferees had exceeded their authority
on the new flexible plan. He said,
however, he would not make point OF
order against it.

Indications Are That s1.7o Figure VIII
BE Maintained.

The tax rate of $1.70, which the
District now pays on its real and per-
sonal. property will be enough to take
care of the needs of the District during
the fiscal year 1891, assuming that
either the House or Senate form of the
1881 appropriation bill is passed, Mai.
Donovan said yesterday. The $1.7O rate
assuming that the House bill Is passed,
will leave either no surplus or such q
small surplus that 1t may as well be
diSregarded. Maj. Donovan would not
venture to predict whether the Com
missioners would order this rate for
1891. but since he Is their adviser on
fiscal matters, his statement was taken
as a rather strong indication that the
$1.70 rate would be maintained In
1881. assuming that the appropriation
bill follows substantially the outlines
of the present House bill. The rate will
not be announced by the Commissioners
until after the appropriation bill is
enacted.

CULPEPER, Va, May 24.-Presideni
Hoover braved o mountain rainstorm
today to wade in the Rapidan and cast
for trout.
Clad in an oilskin slicker that reached
below the tops Of his high fishing
boots, the President and several other
members of his party were well re-
warded for their venture into the chill
waters.
Many of the guests, however, lost
their enthusiasm for fishing in the face
upon the mountain camp almost al
the time the presidential party arrived
and only the most venturesome Joined
Mr.. Hoover in his plunge.
Quit Fishing Early.
As the storm settled down, however
they gave up their fishing and re-
turned earlier than usual to the head
quarters camp to a cheerful log fire
Seventeen guests, the largest party
that had yet gone to the camp, made
up the group that gathered about the
fire. Among them were four Senators
three Representatives and two Repub-
lican national committeeman. They
left Washington after an early break
fast at the White House and the driv-
ing thunderstorm settled down upon
the mountains almost with their ar
rival. Through most Of the afternoon
the high mountain upon which the
camp rests was obscured by low-fying
gray clouds.
VIII Visit School Today.
After the informal devotionals, which
have become a regular part of the week
end excursions of the presidential
party, the Chief Executive is consider
ing a trip tomorrow to the school for
mountain children which he established
near his own camp.
No decision has yet been reached
whether the school shall continue the
Summer, and the teacher. Miss Chris
tine Vest, desires to confer with Mr.
Hoover upon the question. She also is
anxious that he see the progress made
in the few months since the school
opened.

LONDON, May 24.-The news from
India today showed that q new form
OF civil resistance was taking place in
Calcutta.
while the women in other parts OF
India are supporting raids on the gov
eminent salt works or are picketine
liquor and foreign cloth shops, the
women of Calcutta decided to stop foot
ball play.
Woman pickets gathered on the mine
grounds where league foot ball matches
were to be played and, by obstructing
the main entrances to pavilions, pre-
vented the players from entering or
emerging and thus effectively stopped
all play.
Melee Follows Raid.
Karaehi was another news center.
The police there raided shop which
had been selling contraband salt and
seized a large quantity of the con-
diment. A melee developed in which
several persons were injured and the
police charged with their sticks to re-
store order. Later a procession marched
through the Indian quarter singing
revolutionary songs. but quiet was soon
established.

Hindu nationalist. Eighty Moslens at
q political meeting last night adopted
a resolution which urged Moslen1s OF
Karachi and Sind to join In Mahatma

The Moslems were asked to carry out
the nationalist program, including the
picketing of liquor shops, the boycott
ting of foreign goods, the use Of Indian
made cloth and the publication OF pro-
scribed literature.
Bombay Is Silent.
Nothing was heard from Bombay this
afternoon and the silence from that
quarter was considered strange, since
another procession to celebrate "Dhara-
sana day. had been scheduled.
The Bombay nationalist started to
observe "Dharasana day" this morning
by declaring partial stoppage OF work.
On one hand they were celebrating
their victories" in the recent salt raids
at Dharasana and on the other were
mourning for their fellows who were
arrested or were battered by the sticks
OF the police.
