WASHINGTON, April 18.—With Dem ocratic members of the house in the role of students today Representative Cordell Hull, of Tennesse, converted the tariff caucus into a class in income tax ation after the caucus had disposed of attendants to a few items on the free list passed over from yesterday. Sev eral members sought to have a small duty levied on raw rubber, raw silk and tungsten ore. Representative Hull wrote the income tax section of the Democratic bill in which widespread interest has been aroused, members of'congress particu larly evincing a desire for information as to the effect of the proposed tax be fore trying to criticise its provisions. The Tennessee member who has made a study of the income tax problem for many years, elucidated his plan in a lengthy address to his colleagues and on nearly every provision he was asked a dozen questions. How the ways and means committee had arrived at $4,000 as the exemption limit for the income tax was the first subject of the inquiry, some members asking if $5,000 would not be better and others demonstrating an idea that the exemption should be lower. A lower exemption, Mr. Hull ex* plained, would necessitate a bill with so many special exemptions thac it would be difficult of enforcement and also would entail so much administrative work as to make it unprofitable. By fixing the exemption at $4,000, special exemptions are not necessary and it was stated the operation o'f the act and cpllection of the tax were made comparatively simple. Considerable opposition to some of the features of the act are developing, though the leaders declare many mem bers are under misapprehension as to the exact working of the act. To clear up misunderstandings was the desire of the committee at the outset, and this task was undertaken by Mr. Hull. Before the caucus met the ways and means committee considered some amendments, none of which is vital, but which .would change rates on minor commodities. They were to be offered to the caucus. Th^ committee also framed an amend ment to the income tax section, chang ing the phraseology regarding insurance policies. In the original the language was meant to exempt insurance policies in computing net income, but it was re garded as confusing. “We will change the language,” said Chairman Underwood, ‘‘to make clear that insurance policies are exempt. T‘ e change does not alter the original in tention of the committee.” The constitutionality of the income tax, it became apparent today, was to be the principal subject of debate when its discussion began in earnest. Several members were planning, to attack it on the ground that it was unconstitutional. The committee is ready, to contend that there is no ground for apprehension on that claim. While the Democrats were in' session the house Republicans went into caucus to settle whether they should offer a tariff program of their own or follow the plan of Representatives Moore and Fordney to merely ‘‘point out the peril in the Democratic bill.” Republican members of the ways and means had voted 4 to 2 to direct the Republican caucus to prepare amendments to the Democratic bill. The first vote of the day in the Dem ocratic caucus before the income tax was taxen up, was on a motion of Rep resentative* Phelan, of Massachusetts, to take boots and shoes from the free list and make them dutiable at 10 per cent ad valorem This deefated, he of fered an amendment for 5 per cent duty which also was lost by an overwhelm ing vote. The caucus rejected an amendment proposed by Representative Hardwick, of Georgia, to take crude rubber off the free list and to tax it at 10 per cent. Representative Borland, of Missouri, tried unsuccessfully to put manufactur ed rubber on the free list. Chairman Simmons of the senate fin- . ance committee returned to Washington today and has called another meeting tomorrow of the Democratic members ‘ of the committee for further study of the tariff bill. No hearings will be granted according to the present plans of the Democrats, although many dele gations and representatives of indus tries and labor organizations have re quired opportunities to appear. MISSISSIPPI RISES ABOVE FLOOD All Records for High Water Shattered by Big River Through Arkansas (By Associated Press.) NEW ORLEANS, April JS.—The weather bureau’s prediction of three weeks ago that the present Mississippi river flood would exceed the record stages from Alemphis south is being verified. The gauge at Helena. Ark., this morning registered 64.4 feet or one- tenth above the previous high record made on April 21 last year. At Arkan sas City an additional rise of two-tenths of a foot for the twenty-four hours end ing at 7 a. m., brought the stage within half a foot I of last year's record. At Vicksburg a rise of four-tenhts was re corded. giving a stage within half a foot of the previous record. From Natchez south the river contin ues to rise at the rate of approximately half a footj a day. A further rise slightly over a foot will put the Natchez stage over last year’s record. Baton Rouge is 6.1 feet below the record, Donaldsonville Is five feet below and New Orleans is 3.2 feet below the high mark set on May 11 last year. Reports received today by the engin eers in charge of the* levee work south of Vicksburg were optimistic, but it i3 admitted that the levees between Arkan sas City and Natchez will be subjected to the most severe strain yet recorded, within the next two weeks. The levees from Vicksburg south, however, have been raised from two to three feet above last year’s height and generally strengthened. A feature which has lent the most encouragement to the engineers is the sunshine which has continued without interruption for al most two weeks, thoroughly drying the levees.

He was bitten seven years ago and the ven om eventually affected his liver. DR. TALKS ON FOOD Pres, of Board of Health "What shall I eat?” is the daily in quiry the physician is met with. I do not hesitate to say that in my judg ment a large percentage of disease is caused by poorly selected and im properly prepared food. My personal experience with the fully-cooked food, known as Grape-Nuts, enables me to speak freely of its merits. "From overwork, I suffered several years with malnutrition, palpitation of the heart, and loss of sleep. Last sum mer I was led to experiment person ally with the new food, which I used in conjunction with good rich cow’s milk. In a short time after I com menced its use, the disagreeable symp toms disappeared, my heart’s action be came steady and normal, the functions of the stomach were properly carried out and I again slept as soundly and *as well as in my ’youth. "I look upon Grape-Nuts as a perfect food, and no one can gainsay but that it has a most prominent place In a ra tional, scientific system of feeding. Any one who uses this food will soon be convinced of the soundness of the principle upon which it is manufactured and may thereby know the facts as to* its true worth.” Name given by Pos- tura Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

ELGIN, Ill., April 19.—What appears to be a triple murder was revealed by the finding of the mutilated bodies of Mrs. Manny Sleep and her two small children in an abandoned cistern on the Sleep farm, five miles west of. Elgin. The trio had been missing since Mon- duy evening. •Late this afternoon Herman Coppes, sixteen years old, of the St. Charles school, for boys, who had been on parole to the Sleep family for six months, was taken into custody and is held in con* nection with the murder. The arrest of Coppes came after de velopment of evidence at the coro ners jury that he had had an empty cartridge in his possession on Thurs day. He declared to tSanley Phillipps, an other state ward, that he believed that he wopld throw the cartridges aw’ay, as it might cause him trouble. Mrs. Sleep and her children, Sarah and Orville, disappeared Monday aft ernoon. The husband found their bodies this morning in a cistern, the only opening to which is through the kitchen floor. The skulls of both children were crushed and there were five bullet holes in the mother’s body. Bloodstained axes with which it is believed the children were killed were found in a woodshed adjoining the house. A revolver with four loaded cartridges and one empty chamber was found in the cistern. The caliber of the revolver and that of the empty shell carried by Coppes were the same. No motive for the murders can be de termined. Coppes professes innocence. The inquest was adjourned for ten days. FOUR ARE INJURED IN SHAKE-UP ON SOUTHERN (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) EASTMAN, Ga.. April 18.—-Passenger train No. 23 oil the Southern railroad, bound for Macon, was wrecked here at 2:30 o’clock this morning. The smash- up occurred on the outskirts of East man on an embankment. Engineer William Argo, of Macon, was seriously injured internally; Fireman E. C. Cham- bless and Baggage Master F. J. Mc Cloud, of Macon, were injured, but not seriously. The negro porter was slightly hurt. The train was ap proaching the station and steam had been shut off, which prevented far more serious consequences. The en gine jumped the track and, parting from the tender, fell on its side at right angles to the rails. The baggage car rolled down the em bankment, and turned bottom side up. The baggage master, the negro porter, were in this car when the smash came, the former asleep in his chair. The porter was pinned beneath the baggage, but was unhurt save for a sprained thumb. Most of the passen gers knew nothing of the wreck. Those in the sleeper were not awakened. The engineer and the fireman are being cared for at the hotel. The wreck was caused by a split switch or the switch- being open. Th« same engine pulling a passenger train was overturned at this same spot about a month ago. It will take all day at least for the track to be cleared. Mass Meeting of Irresponsible People in Tokio Demand Most Extreme Measures in Retaliation for California Law (By Associated Press.) TOKIO, April 18.—The situation brought about by the California alien land holding bill is becoming increas ingly serious. A mass meeting today composed for the most part of irrespon sible people demanded the most extreme measures of retaliation by Japan. Dur ing the gathering the singing of war songs aroused the feelings of many of the lower classes who were pnesent. Anonymous writers in the newspapers gave an outline of plans of the seizure of the Philippine islands and Hawaii and at the same time denounce the Ja pan government’s submissive attitude. It is said that the changed conditions in Japan make it impossible for the government to restrain the newspapers and the lower classes: On the other hand government cir cles are showing spirit. Hamilton Wright Mabie, of New York; Dr. Pea body and John L. Mott, secretary of the International Committee of the Young Men’s Christian association, were the guests today at a luncheon given by Baron Noboaki Makino, the foreign minister, at which some of the most prominent Japanese and Americans were present. .A very cordial feeling prevailed. DIPLOMACY HELPLESS. Shortly after the luncheon Messrs. Mabie, Peabody and Mott, and a number of representative Japanese Chritsians and Americans mbet at the residence of Count Shigenobu Okuma, former pre mier and minister of foreign affairs. Count Okuma delivered a speech during which he said that diplomacy, the courts and commercial men were helpless and that only the influence of Christianity remained. Otherwise, he declared, war was impending.* Mr. Mott agreed in replying that the influence of the Christianity was now superlative. Dispatches were sent by the meeting to President Wilson and others implor ing them to use all their influence on Christians and thoughtful people to avoid a calamity. The Japanese overnment considers the present anti-Japanese movement in Cali fornia as most dangerous and is faced with the prospect of placing itself in a most unwelcome position, owing to the unwillingness of the federal government at Washington to intervene and the im possibility of introducing counter meas ures here. In the event of the passage of the California alien land holding bill through both houses of the leigslature, Japan will issue an imperial ordinence to erf- force the Japan foreign land ownership bill of 1910 and will apply to the fed eral government at Washington for per mission of Japanese to become natural ized citizens of the United States. Two Children and Governess Drown In a Closed Auto (By Asscoiated Pr8ss.) PARIS, April 19.—Two children of Isadora Duncan, the American dancer, a girl, five, and a boy, three, and their English governess, were drowned as the result of a singular accident today, when the automobile in which they were riding along the Boulevard Bourbon, in the suburb of Nouilly-Sur-Seine, plunged from the roadway into the river Seine. The machine had been brought to a stop because another automobile was approaching from the opposite direction had had lost power. The chauffeur de scended to the ground and started the engine, but as the power had not been turned off, he machine started abruptly and gained headway so quickly that the chauffeur was unable to regain his seat. The automobile, with no guiding hand, left the roadway and ran over the embankment, which is not protected with a parapet, and then dashed into the river. CASTOR IA For Infants and Children.

WASHINGTON, April 19.—President Wilson and Secretary Bryan, following the precedent of previous administra tions, today made known their views on the international character of the legfs- lation now Pending in California by which Japan could be prevented/ from owning land in that state. In a telegram to Governor Johnson, Secretary Bryan expressed the view of President Wilson that the California as sembly bill might be construed as a vio lation of treaty obligations with Japan, while the senate’s measure as drawn would not be objectionable, if alien land legislation is to be enacted at all. In this the federal government recognizes the sovereign right of California to leg islate according to her own judgment but today’s message counseled caution. The telegram and other information from official circles indicated clearly that the provisions in the assembly bill, by which aliens “Ineligible to citizen ship” could be prohibited from owning land were regarded here as a distinct discrimination against Japanese who at present are denied the right of naturali zation. The language of the senate bill restricting ownership of land to citizens of the United States “or aliens who have declared their intention of becoming cit izens” is approved by the president ano he has discovered that this is the phraseology of the tsatutes already in force in New York, Delaware, Minnesota, Kentucky, Washington, Missouri and me District of Columbia. Incidentally all these laws make it impossible for Jap anese to own land until they are able to declare their intention of becoming -citi zens, a privilege which the lower courts thus far have not given them on the ground that they were not “of white or African descent.” By enacting a law similar to those in force In several states, California would not embarrass the federal government because no protest hitherto has Jjeen made against the statutes and the whole problem becomes one of naturalization. It is not unlikely, however, that the Jap anese government will now attempt to have the question of naturalization pressed to higher courts. Viscount Chinda, the Japanese ambas sador, today had a long conference about the situation with Secretary Bryan. The secretary had been keeping the ambassa dor freely advised of the steps taken oy the federal government to preserve the treaty rights of the Japanese. As Sec retary Bryan knows the precise nature of the Japanese objections to the pend ing objections, his recommendation to Governor Johnson is taken to indicate that the senate bill is in such form tnat though not welcome, it might at least be tolerated by the Japanese govern ment.

COLLEGE IS NOT ASKING STATE STATION REMOVAL Dr. Soule Says That Matter Is in Hands of the People Alone (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) ATHENS, Ga., April 19.—The election of Prof. R. J. H. DeLoach as director of the Georgia agricultural experiment sta tion, has led some of the papers of Geor gia to seize the opportunity to advocate the removal of the station to the Col lege of Agriculture at Athens. Some have assumed that the Removal of the station would naturally follow. In order that the attitude of the col lege might not be misunderstood, Presi dent Soule considers that it is timely to state that the matter of removal of the experiment station i s in the hands of the people of the state, that the Col lege of Agriculture is making no fight, nor will make any, but if ever the people consider that* the station should come to Athens and be associated with the State College of Agriculture, that the college would do its best to make it the largest possible benefit to the peo ple of Georgia. “Meantime,” he says, “the college is very busy trying to improve agricul tural conditions in the state, and by the measure of its success it expects to have it meted to it in return. Whatever comes to the institution, he said should come by reason of a real demand of the pooph who made its founding possible, whr have supported it thus far and who will be looked to for future enlarge ment.” POWERS THREATEN TO Marines From International Fleet May March Against Montenegro ANTIVARI, Montenegro, April 21.— An ultimatum was sent to Montenegro today by the commander of the interna- | tional fleet blockading the coast.
