 washington, Aug. ,30-(UP)-- Wealthy. Americans, including for mer secretary of the treasury An drew w. Mellon. gave away ap- proximately $6,O00,0O0 d,urin g July, the month congress debated the tax-the.rich bill, the securities and exchange commission reported today. Mellon gave away 46,O00 shares of six per cent cumulative preferred stock in the Pittsburgh Coal company worth $1,S4O,00O on the stock market. Reports did not disclose to whom the stock was given.
 officials calculated that If the gift was to one individual, where the maximum rates would apply, Mellon had saved $57,000 which would have been collected under the higher, new gift tax rates to 20 in force when President Roose- welt signs the bill passed by con gress. The present rate on a gift of $1,S40, 900 is $307.462 while the new rate will be $364,3S7.
 The four largest gifts totaled more than $3,O0O,O00. The saving to those receiving the stocks, call culated as if each gift went to one person, amounted to approximately $115,000, the difference between the present tax rate and the new rate.

DOROTHY HOOD
 WANTS ADVANCE

New York, Aug. 30.-(UP)- Mrs. Dorothy (Sunshine) Browning Hood, 19, the late Edward West Daddy Browning's adopted daughter, wants $10,O00 advance payment of the fortune the mill lionaire real estate dealer left her. She informed surrogate's court to- day, in petition filed by her legal guardian, Daniel A. Shirk, that she was without funds, in debt $S,292, and that her husband, Clarence B. Hood of Dunn, N. C., was jobless.
 Browning, who died october 12, 1884, willed to his adopted daugh- ter $10,000 a year until her major ity and $25,000 a year thereafter. But litigation enbroiled the docu- ment. Dorothy's counsel contended she was entitled to $2,000,000 out right, and perhaps the entire estate because Browning bequiested more than 50 per cent of 1t to charity. As a result, she has received noth- ing yet.

AL CAPONE MONEY
 IS BEING SOUGHT
$I2O,0OO More Is Wanted in Taxes-CapOne Is
 Now in Prison

Washington, Aug. 3O,-(UP)- Al Capone, Chicago gang leader now serving II years in Alcatraz prison on income tax charges, was assessed $l2O,0OO to-day by the missioner of internal revenue for unpaid taxes on 10000 barrels of high powered prohibition beer. The assessment was certified to the commissioner of internal rev. enue by Joseph Lawrence, admin in charge of the taxes and penal ties unit of the U. s. department of justice. The treasury will en- deavor to collect the amount due by civil proceedings.
 This will probably mean re- newed search for funds and other assets still believed to have been secreted by Capone during the long years of his unlawful opera tions, the department of justice announced. Capone, was never convicted on any federal charge except income tax evasion. He was sent to Alcatraz prison, Amer ica's escape proof Devils island in San Francisco bay, to serve sen- tence. Included in the illegal liquor tax assessment were numer- ous unnamed members of a well organized Chicago crime syndicate which Capone was alleged to have directed during the prohibition era.

Minneapolis, Minn., Aug 30.- H,he average citizen's real income for July, 1895, was higher than a year ago, according to the In Vestors Syndicate Consumer s study released to-day. It was the first time since the hstudies were started four months ago that this has been the case.
 In the main, this trend in favor of greater real income is account ed for by the continued decline in food costs, which as of August 1st showed a decline for the sec bnd successive month in contrast to last year when prices were ris- ing, Food prices are now lower than they were in April, in con trast to 1884, when the figure for August 1st was about three per cent higher than on April lst.
