G DEBATE OVER coRPun mm IS THE T ORECAST Democrats Will Support In. come Tax With Aid of Few Republicans PRESIDENT IS SURE OF ITS PASSAGE Southern Senators to Make strong Fight on Cotton Bagging Schedule WASHINGTON, June 17. The cor. poration tax question will receive the attention of the senate during the prent week. Just when the subject ill be taken up depends upon the time devoted , to the few schedules yet tn be considered In connection with the tariff. Friends of the bill are optimistic about disposing ol these lew schedules Jn short order. They, however, embrace the questions of cot ton ties, cotton .bagging and binding twine and -these are possibilities for nurn aiscussion in connection wnn all these items. The Southern, sena tors will make a determined, though probably a losing light In favor of free huKKinK and ties, contending that If binding twine is to go on the du tiable list to Btttlsfy the farmers of the Northwest the other articles should tie riven the same treatment to cratifv the farmers of the South. Other articles still requiring atten tion are cotton and cotton waste, ar senic, clavf asDhaltum and feldSDar. There will also be a further effort to amend the provisions relating to steel rtlls and structural steel. Lively Debate Promised.

NONE TO MOURN IN DEATH WHEN LIFE REEKED Body of Mrs. Laid A way With Barely a Re luctant Prayet The Recent Tragedy. (By Associated Pre.) ST. MICHAELS, Md , June 27 The theory that Edith May Wood III was lured to ' Laurie Bob" Eastman's lonely bungalow without knowledge of where she was going and that she was drugged and detained there against her .wishes, was advanced to day When a further search of the shaok which the superstitious folk of the neighborhood forever more will shun as hauntefti-aevealed a small bot tle' which a hasty examination shows contained a mixture of narcotic drngt There were strong evidences of mor phine In the nearly empty bottle. This discovery tends to bear out the theory which the people of the com munity iwho know the girl long have wanted to believe. They never listened to the idea that she was Involved In a drunken orgy at the bungalow and haw contended that she lost her life In repulsing the advances of the man who acknowledged his guilt iby snuff ing out his life iwhen it see-med thst 4he hands of the law were air-out to lie lard upon him. Suicide-Murderer Burled. Today's Investigations led the au thorities still further away from the Idea, that anyone other than Eastman had a hand in the murder. It Is in conceivable that Eastman could haw Invited friends to visit his bungalow in the condition that it was. The place, only hal completed, offered no accommodations for visitors whatever. In a new 'made grave, not fifty feet from the scene of the crime which led him to his death. Eastman's hodv was laid away In the early hours of today. No man of the church was there to offer a last word for the dead; no friend or relative came near. The undertakers and their assistants, a little 'band of newspaper men and a tew Idla peraous morbidly attract ed to follow the strange funeral pro esln, were the only persons at' the grave. With bared heads they ropeat ed the familiar words of the Lord's prayer. Mrs. Eastman, stopping twelve miles away, at Easton, express ed no dee-ire to attend the funeral. Isolated Grave. It was 6.30 o'clock this mornlnrc when the casket containing Eastiman'x body was placed in the roughly fash ioned country hearse and th eunder takers and others 'making wp tr.c little funeral party started from St. ONE OF WELLMAN S MEN LOST IK ARCTIC CAMP; II Explorer Doubts Whether He Will Be Able to Make Dash to Pole This Year.

On May 19 Johnson went with his fellow watchman. Paul BJorvlg on a hunting expedition over the pack Ice The Ice was moving and Johnson fell through a crevass into the sea.

Notwithstanding the early hour to day .there were many people slims, in the streets of St. Michaels am along the way to witness the passing of the strange cortege. No cnur. h or church ysrd of the vicinity rwnuld open its doors or -tabes to the dead man. Superstitious negroes who on yesterday could not be Induced to dig the grave, stood awe-stricken todsv on the outskirts of the funriral parly No more lonely spot could well imagined than where the Isolated bun gajow stands. When the hearse har drawn up alongside the grave, fur men lifted the casket from the vehi cle and placed It temporarily on two plank supports, stretched serosa tin gran , Into which a pine 'box had al ready been lowered. Marsh water had seeped into the grave owr nlgrht. Hesitated to Pray. The undertaker drew hack the slid ing lid of the racket tn order thai all might see that It was Eastman who was being consigned to his last resting place and closed it aain. As the casket wsted above the grave ready to be. lowered, there was an awkward pause. "Gentlemen," said the undertaker "it seems to me that some one should say a little word or prayer. Won't one of you?" HI glance fsll upon James Sutton, a merchant, of Beri aman. "You are a t-hurch memlher, Mr Sutton," sal dthe undertaker. "Won't you say It?" Sutton hesitated a moment, then asking all to Join him, begun to re peat the Lord's prayer with solemn earnestness.

The most significant fact of the ce Is that there is absolut K nothing to Indicate w hen or how L'-on Ling left the city. If.

The Information coming from New ark yesterday that Leon Ling left the trunk In a restaurant there has been substantially ronflrmed, with sli'nt alterations tn details and hours; hni It only makes the case more puzzling.
