War Revenue Tax Repeal Show:
Expected Falling Off in the
Treasury Receipts.
Washington Politicians Say Tar
iff Revision Can Not Be
Postponed.
Next Congress Expected to Make
Slight Modifications—Wash-
4~
ington Notes.
Washington, An jr. 1.—There was a
deficit of $7.4!'S,S0S for tin? mnnlli just
ended. lutt this causes no alarm at the
treasury because it was fully expected.
The deliieit is due to the repeal of th
war revenue and heavy disbursements
made at the beginning' of each fiscal
year for interest charges and extraor
dinary disbursements* to pay the war
claims of Illinois. Iowa. Indiana, .ml
several other states. These elaims
alone amounted to more than $:!,000, 000
and accounts for nearly half the
amount of the deficit. The receipts for
the month were ?-t!V10T.f01, and the
disbursements of $."G,S04.000.
The internal revenue receipts for the
month were $21.(!1S,124, a.urainst ?2S,
33S.190 for the same period last year, a
decrease of $(i,720,0Gf caused by the re
peal of the war taxes. On the other
hand, there was an increase in the cus
toms receipts of $3.1lit.7S0 over last
year, the receipts for the current year
heirs ?24,4:50,743, as ajrainst $21."13.
f.fi3 for the corresponding: period for the
previous year.
It is estimated there will be a falling
off of about $70,000,000 in the internal
revenue receipts during the present
year. With this tremendous reduction
in receipts Uncle 8am will have no
difficulty meeting his obligations, as he
has on hand an available cash balance
of $203,5(57.112. In addition to this there
in the treasury $150,000,000 in the trold
reserve, and $S41.1)65,08.4 in the trust
fund.
Tariff Revision Soon.
Tariff revision cannot be postponed
much longer .in the opinion of politi
cians here, and it would not be surpris
ing If the first session of the next con
gress should enact tariff legislation of
a moderate character if the republicans
are successful in the fall campaign. If
the democrats should win it is believed
congress at the short session would re
vise the tariff so as to have it done un
der republican auspices. A majority
of the republican members from II1
i
noi~, Indiana, Kansas, Nebraska, Mich
ail, Minnesota, and other -western
states are heartily in favor of tariff re
vision. The action of the Iowa con
vention has brought the tariff question
prominently to the front. It is pretty
well understood now among the repub
lican leaders that 11 tariff question
jean not be kept out of the coming cam
paign in the congressional districts, for
the democrats in their hue and cry
against trusts which they insist on
making the leading issue of their can
vass, are constantly telling the people
that the trusts are children of the
tariff.
How general will be the necessity
for the republican speakers to meet the
tariff issue can not be fortold, but I he
action of the Iowa republicans has put
it beyond question that tariff revision
will have to be much talked about in
that stale and probably in other parts
of the middle west during the coming
fall. The most prominent Iowan in
Washington at the present timeemetne
Washington at present is secretary of
the treasury Leslie M. Shaw. lie will
not discuss political affairs, but it is
known that he has recentiy been in
communication with Senator Allison
and other political leaders in his state,
and that he recognized the placing
of a strong tariff revision plank in the
Iowa platform as a necessity.
It is pointed out that the Iowa re
1 ublieans are at present more inter
tsted in this subject than in any other,
nd the action of the state convention
jcorly, and where every preparation ismado

many republicans from other parts of
the country would have preferred (hat
the Iowa platform contained no such
radical expression on the subject of
tariff revision as was adopted.
Such men as Senator Aldrieh, chair
man of thp senate finance committee:
Representative Payne, chairman of the
ways and means committee: Senator
Hanna, and Speaker Henderson were
opposed to the revival of the tariff
question at this time. They regard the
present tariff laws as satisfactory, and
deplore the unsettling effect which tar
iff agitation would inevitably have on
business and commerce.
The attempt of the navy department
to get recruits for the service from
among the idle miners of Pennsylvania
has met with failure. Orders have been
issued by the department to Lieut. J.
P. J. Ryan, who has charge of the re
cruiting party, to abandon the rest of
his itinerary and go lo Baltimore from
Pethlehem, Pa., where a recruiting de
pot has been opened. On June 2 Lieut.
Ryan, accompanied by Passed Assistant
Surgeon Frederick L. Hen ton and some
warrant and ietty officers, opened up
the anthracite region recruiting cam
paign at Scranton. Afterwards they
liamsporl, Ilarrisburg, Lebanon, Read
ing, and Allentown.
It soon became evident that the strik
ing miners did not want to enlist for
a great many reasons, among them that
they were being supported by the union
and hoped to be able to get back to
work soon at wages ranging from $3
to ?5 a day. Lieut. Ryan and hi^ as
sistants found also that most of the idle
miners were not of a roving disposition
and preferred to stay in the mining
region.
One curious outcome of the recruiting
was that few of the strikers who ap
plied for enlistment could pass the
physical requirements. The usual idea
of af, miner is a. great, brawny fellow,
who'is physically perfect, but Lieut.
Ryan found that nearly all of those who
were willing to go in the navy were
undersized, weak chested and round
shouldered, and physically undesirable
iru.ii?jir]y every Way. Those short
comings are attributed to going to work
at a)\ early age, lack of nourishment,
and hard labor in unsanitary surround
ings.

Senator Piatt was accompanied to
Mr. Roosevelt's country home by t'ol

chairman of the republican stale com
mit tee of N*e\v York. The visit to the

uation in both the national and slate
fields. He already had declared him
self lo be a supporter of Mr. Roose

but merely in the form of a denial of
its authenticity.

way particularly advantageous to him,
but all of them have been rejected.

CLUE TO CHICAGO STAMP CASE.-
Colored Man Taken in Custody While
Disposing of Stamps.
Chicago. Aug. L—Postotllee Inspector
Stewart lias sworn out a search war
rant for the premises of Sumner Wilk
enson. colored, employed as porter by
one of tlio express companies, and de
tained Wilkciison and his wife in his
office for several hours. Wiikenson has
been getting rid of large quantities of
postage stamps in the past few months
and Stewart and the postal authorities
want to know where he has been get
ting them. So far they have not been
able to tlnd out and the search of his
premises yesterday did not reveal any
thing.
Postofflce inspectors In Chicago
learned he has been purchasing goods
of a, house In that city and paying for
them with stamps. They thought pos
sibly he might be aiding in disposing of
the stamps recently stolen from the
postoflice in thai city. A statement
from the mercantile tirm shows that in
a short time Wiikenson sent to It $2!M4
in 1 and 2 cent stamps in payment for
goods.
Wiikenson. when he was brought into
the postofflce inspector's office, said
that he had bought the stamps at the
postoflice at the east side branch in
this city and sent them in payment for
goods because the house he dealt with
had advertised to take stamps in pay
ment. lie dlil not know why he had not
sent the money instead, but knew he
did not purchase money orders because
they would have cost him a small fee.
Mrs. Wiikenson said that she had made
tin/ purchases and that she had never
sent more than $1 worth of stamps at a
time.
Mrs. Wiikenson was confronted with
an Jtemized statement of purchases
made of this firm by her showing she
had sent in as high as $5 worth of
stamps at one time, and that with but a
single exception all her purchases had
amounted to over $1 and that all pay
ments had been made in stamps. When
cornered she had on further explana
tion to offer.
Wiikenson was then informed that he
had been under surveillance for several
weeks and since purchases had been
made, that the stamp clerks knew liim
and that it was not true that he had
purchased stamps in the quantities
claimed by him at the postofflce or sub
stations.
This was a puzzler for Wiikenson and
he immmediately hedged. "Well, boss,"
he said, "I reckon I didn't buy all them
stamps from de postoflice. Come to
think of It, a gemmen come to ma house
one day and askt me if I wanted to buy
some stamps. 1 tol him I did and he left
me have seven dohlars' worth for a
fiver an' I took 'em. Honest, boss, dat's
right."
Wiikenson said the fellow told him he
was from Chicago, that the man was
small, with a dark mustache and dark
clothes, but that was all that he could
tell of him. Wiikenson did not try to
explain where lie got the balance of the
stamps, and In spite of strenuous
"sweating" would not give the officers
additional information.
He was finally released, but an offi
cer has been detailed who will keep him
and Ills wife and their associates under
surveillance in the hopes they will be
able to find out where the stamps came
from.
The officers are confident Wiikenson
lenows a good deal more about the
stamps than he has told and do not
propose to let him get away from them
for a time at least.

World's Fair Site Enlarged.
SI. Louis, Aug. 1 .-—The Louisiana
Fucha.se Kxposition Company has se
cured possession of the famous Tesson

Details of the Reorganization
of the Rock Island Are
Given Out.
William H. Moore Will Practi
cally Control the Property,
Succeeding Cbale.
Cable Remains on the Director
ate—An Explanatory State
ment.
New York. Aug. 1.— Petails of the re
organization plan of the itoek Island
lailroad, the lirst. step in which was
taken yesterday by the incorporation of
the Rock Island Company of New Jer
si were given out by W. 1Leeds,
who has been made president of ftie
new concern.
One of the mosl important features of
the plan is that William 11. Moore prac
tically succeeds R. R. Cable in control
of the property. Mr. Moore is made
chairman of the finance of executive
committee, and thus will have more
power than Mr. Cable as chairman of
the board. Other members of the ex
ecutive committee are Marshall Field,
W. 1!. Leeds, I). U. Reid, J. H. Moore and
I'raiu is L. liine. The directors of the
new company are as follows: R. R. Ca
ble. .Marshall Field. H. C. Prick, William
II. Moore, J. 11. Moore. T». (J. Reid. W.
K. Leeds, gden Mills. Oeorge S. Hrew
ster, Anson P. Flower, P. L. Hine,
t-eorge O. McMurtey and Oeorge T.
ltoggs.
The plans, it was announced, are ap
proved by the directors and a majority
of the stockholders of the present Chi
cago. Rock Island & Pacific Railroad
Company. They involve the forming of
two new companies, as follows:
1. Tho Chicago, Rock Island & Pa
cific Railroad Company, chartered in
Iowa and authorized to issue $125,000,
000 of capital stock and $75,000,000 of
i00-year 4 per cent gold bunds. This
tompany will operate the railroad sys
tem. -William T. Rankin is president of
this company.
2. The Rock Island Company, char
tered oil Wednesday in New Jersey,
with Mr. Leeds as president, which will
issue $:m ,000,000 of common and $54,
000.000 of preferred stock.
The capital stock »r No. 1 will be Is
sued to No. 2 and No. 2 will in return
make over to No. 1 the common and
preferred stock of No. 2 to an amount
sufficient to enable No. 1 to offer for
each $100 share of the capital of the
present Rock Island company deposited
before Sept. 1, R'02, $70 in No. 2's pre
ferred stock and $100 In its common
stock, besides $100 in No. l's 4 per cent
gold bonds.
These bonds can be issued only to a
face amount equal to the par value of
the shares of the present Rock Island
stock (there is $75,000,000 of that),
which are eventually purchased by the
Iowa company (No. 1), all of which
stock so purchased is to be deposited
under a trust agreement with the Cen
tral Trust Company of New York to
secure the bonds. -..-v:
Preferred Stock to Control.
The preferred stock of the New Jer
sey Rock Island company is to be.
entitled to noncuinulative yearly 4 per
ocnt dividends for seven years after
that time 5 per cent for seven years,
and after that to per cent indefinite
ly. The holders of this preferred stoeto
are entitled to elect a majority of the
directors, but, by a two-thirds vote,
may surrender such privilege. A two
thirds vote of both classes of stock is
necessary to increase the amount of the
preferred stock. This explanatory
statement is given:
"The New Jersey Rock Island com
pany has entered into agreements with
the Iowa Rock Island company, under
which, in consideration of deliveries of
its preferred and common stock for
the purpose of tho foregoing offer, the
New Jersey Rock Island company will
become the owner, as issued, of the
capital stock of the Iowa company.
Accordingly, upon the acceptance of
such offer by all the stockholders of
the present company, the Iowa com
pany will have acquired the entire
capital stock of the present company,
while the entire capital stock of the
Iowa company will, in turn, be held
by the Rock Island company, so that
when the stocks of the Rock Islam)
company are delivered in pursuance of
this offer to purchase, the proportionate
interests of stockholders of the present
Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific rail
road company in the railroad proper
lies, and other corporate purposes."
Since the Moore brothers and their
associates obtained control of the Rock
Island lines the mileage of that system
has been about doubled. The follow
ftmcs-^lqttibnrau, TOcirshciHtcrxur., 3oum, Friday ^iniust 1. 1902
.-•••. i.
ing statement was do-lated in Presi
dent l.eed office today:
"The Chicago, Rock Island and Pa
cific railway in 1 embraced 3.Hot)
miles of track and trackage, and was
a thru line only from Chicago to Kan
sas city, and a local proposition south
west from Kansas City as far as Tex
as. pv combination with the Purling
ton. Cedar Rapids and Northern rail
road. the Rock Island and Peoria, and
the Choctaw, Oklahoma and Cult"
building an extension lo Kl Paso, a line
between Kansas city and St. Lotus,
a. connection between Port Worth, Tex.
and (ialvestoii, Tex., il has today 7,"in
miles of railroad in operation, an ad
ditional 1,000 miles in coursc of con
.--t ruction, making a. total mileage when
completed of S.000.
THE SOUTHERN MERGER,
Plans Call For Consolidation of 24,000
Miles of Lines.
New York, Aug. J.— no powerful
railway combination, operating the
enormous length of 2I.35G miles of track
embracing seven systems, practically
covering all the region fiom the Ohio
river south to the gulf, and with en
trance to Chicago and outlest and feed
ers to the southwest and northwest, is
an immediate possibility.
Information from several authorita
tive sources in regard to the various
reports and semi-ollieial annocunce
ini nls, the unusual stock movements,
and the conferences, frequent and in
timate occtiring between presidents of
sout heastern and southew estern rail
roads. inclines to the belief that the
merger is almost a certainty.
The roads and their mileage that are
units of this aggressive and protective
coinbinat ion are as follows:
Southern railway. G.742 miles.
Louisville & Nashville, 5,324 miles.
Atlantic Coast line, which recently
secured the Plant system, 3,580 miles.
Illinois Central, 1.2G6 miles.
St. I.ouis & Sail Francisco, 3,372
miles.
Chicago & Kastorn Illinois. 73R miles.
Kvansville Terre Haute, which is,
controlled by the Jiastern Illinois, 325
miles.
The scheme has In a measure been
forced by the plan of the Southern rail
way to gain control of the territory con
tributary to its (1.700 miles of road, altho
it may be said that the Morgan proper
ty does not directly figure in the nego
tiations.
The Illinois Central and the St. Louis
& San Francisco, which meet at Mem
phis, will make a close alliance, and the
Kastern Illinois, which the 'Frisco has
secured on a long-term lease, will join
them. This may be regarded as a pro
tective measure on the part of the Illi
nois Central.
One of the leaders engaged in the
conferences said:
"Tli ere will be one railroad system in
the south, and these roads" (naming the
above) "will form it under one organi
zation."
Meanwhile, no confirmation of tho
announcement that the St. Louis & San
Francisco has leased or otherwise se
cured control of the Chicago & Kastern
Illinois could be obtained. The officers
and directors of both roads refused to
confirm or deny it. No one doubts the
St. Louis & San Francisco has acquired
control, but there seems to be a. differ
ence of opinion, even in inspired quar
ters, as to whether the Chicago & Fast
cm Illinois has been leased or control
of the stock purchased.
GATHERING HER JEWELS.
May Yohe Redeeming Property Pawned
By Strong.
London. Aug. 1.—May Yohe reached
here yesterday from Plymouth, where
she landed from the Furst Bismarck
from New York. She was registered on
the steamer's passenger list as Mrs.
Bate
heller.
To the reporters who met her here
she declared she had never authorized
Putnam Bradlee Strong to pawn any
thing of hers and said he had never
paid any of the money obtained on the
pawned jewels to her. "When she was
shown an interview with Strong, in
which he denied that he had pawned
her diamonds, she said: "That is all a
batch of lies. For the $400,000 worth of
goods which Strong pawned his broth
er-in-law, A. R. Sliattuck, put up $22,
000, out of which I paid $5,000 to Einan
nel Friend, my attorney, and $8,110 to
pawnbrokers. Strong's story that he
paid me back anything is another lie.
"I do not know until I get my mail
whether I will go to France or not. I
know he is there, but I do not want to
have anything to do with him. I have
suffered all this outrageous treatment
to save his mother ttnd my own. I am
anxious to get to Genoa, where I have
tickets for a tiaro, diamond heart and
other things he pawned. I have no
means whatever. 1 may land in Kam
chatka before I get thru,"
When she was shown a statement of
Lord Hope's bankrutpey case, mention
ing that Hope's counsel disputed a note
for £D,1S7 given to her, Miss Yohe
said:
"That's right the money is due me
and I'll light for it till 1
get it."

NATIONAL BISCUIT COMPANY.
Climax Is Reached in (he Min
neapolis Police Scandal
Case.
Ames Will Resign Sept. 1 and
Relieve the Municipal
Tangle.
His Brother, the Chief of Police,
Advised to Act at
Once.
Minneapolis, Minn., Aug. 1. Mayor
A. A. Ames, now at West Haden, Ind„
has decided to resign his office, the res
ignation to take effect Sept. G. The let
ter of resignation will be read to the
council at its next meeting. The may
or postpones his retirement to save the
•ity the expense of a special election.
The mayor has agreed also to secure
the resignation of bis brother. Col. Fred
W. Ames, superintendent of police. He
was brought to these terms by the visit
to West Raden of Police Captains
Charles R. Hill, who will be acting su
perintendent, and John Fitchette. He
does not have the power while out of
the city to perform the functions of
mayor, but lie wired Acting Mayor
Fred M. Powers to secure the removal
of the chief and wired the chief himself
advising his resignation. Alderman
Powers has agreed to carry out the
wishes of fhe mayor.
This is the climax of the police cor
ruption scandals which have agitated
this community and occupied the grand
courts for two months.
Mayor Ames is in failing health and
may not return to Minneapolis at all,
unless forced lo do so by the courts.
1 1 1 0
Mayor Ames, who is at West Haden,
Ind.. explains it this way:
"When Col. Ames left Minneapolis
on his vacation I asked him to resign
within two weeks. He pledged me his
word of honor that he would faithfully
comply with my wishes in that regard
immediately on his return. I cannot
tell you how surprised and grievd I am
that, as my brother, he failed to keep
faith with me to that extent. But, after
all, he is my brother.
"For the benefit of the department
and city of Minneapolis I must insist
upon his speedy resignation. I take
this action in the belief ihat by so do
ing I am best serving the city of my
youth, the city which I love as dearly
as my life."
Nothing could have so clarified the
municipal atmosphere as this act of
Mayor Ames. It ends the rule of Atnes
in Minneapolis, and removes any ele
ment of Aineisin from local polities.
Mayor Ames would have resigned
weeks ago but for his troubles with
the grand jury. He refused to take any
action that would look like backing
down under fire. He is under three in
dictments, but if his health continues to
fail as at present it is doubtful if he
can ever return to face the music.
There are several indictments
against Shipt. Ames. He has been ac
quitted once. He is charged with re
ceiving bribes from women and also
with extortion. Practically the same
charges are made against Mayor Ames.
When the case of Chief Ames was
called yesterday his attorneys moved to
quash the indictments on the ground
that the grand jury was prejudiced and
biased. The court denied the motion,
whereupon Chief Ames pleaded not
guilty, and the case wns set for trial
next Tuesday..
Baby Buried Alive.
Philadelphia, Pa., Aug. 1.—What the
police regard its an attempt to murder
a 6-months-old infant, which they be
lieve had been kidnapped, was revealed
early yesterday morning when Mounted
Policeman Taney was attracted by faint
cries of a. baby buried beneath a quan
tity of fresh earth, leaves and grass in
a hole three feet deep. The child, a boy,
with light hair and bltie eyes, was stiff
with cold, the result of exposure. It
was soon restored to consciousness and
cared for.
The baby was found within a stone's
throw of Murphy's Hollow, a notorious
rendezvous for tramps and gypsies. A
troop of the latter had encamped there
for several days previous to Wednesday
night.
It was noticed that the gypsies had in I®
a a
old, whose light hair and blue eyes af-j£
forded a striking contrast to the S
swarthy gypsies. j®
It excites the wonder of the world, a
magic remedy, liquid electricity, that
drives away suffering and disease.
