Republican Leader In Senate Scored for His Position on Corporation Tax Scheme Cummins Speaks on Incomes. Washington, D. C., June 30. In come tax was practically the only subject and Senators Cummins, of Iowa, and Borah, of Idaho, the only speakers before the Senate today. Mr. Borah was not heard until to wards the close of the day's session when the Iowa senator yielded the floor, which he had held since yester day. He took for his text the decla ration made yestrday by Senator Al- drich to the effect that he would vote for the corporation tax amendment only as a means of defeating the in come tax, and without resorting to personalities he closed the position of the chairman of the finance commit tee, who had presented the corpora tion tax amendment to the Senate. Mr. Cummins also paid his respects to Mr. Aldrich on account of his avow al of yesterday. Mr. Cummins took the floor as soon as a quorum could be obtained after the meeting of the Senate at ten o'clock, and with a brief intermission for luncheon, which was an innova tion in the Senate, he held it until 4:30 o'clock in the afternoon. This task was naturally arduous, but with an improved temperature, and because of Mr. Cummins' easy delivery, the experience was not so 'trying as it might have been for another under different circumstances. Much of the time today was de voted to the consideration of the na tion's finances, but considerable at tention was also' given to the general merits of a tax on incomes, which Mr. Cummins defended as the most rational, because the most just, of all taxes. Estimating the total revenues , under the Aldrich-Payne bill at $360,- 000,000 and those to be derived from the' internal revenue at $240,000,000 he predicted that at the end of the fiscal year 19100 there would be a deficit of not less than $175,000,000. He there fore considered that the amendment of the tariff bill by the addition of an income tax was necessary in order to produce sufficient revenue for the con duct of th business of the government. Mr. Cummins said that if the finance committee's resolution having for the submission to the states of a rrnstitnHnna! amendment, for an in- come tax should be presented to the Senate he would vote for it, but not with any hope of its success. He did not doubt that there would be enough interest manifested against it to ob tain adverse votes in sufficient num ber of -states to defeat the proposi tion.

Address of Weleome by J. C Martin, and Response by Judge Winston. Asheville, N. C., June 30. Lawyers, judges and politicians from all parts oJ l;ie State hae flocted to Ashe 'lie for tte eleveii'-h annual meeting -cf t'le North Carolina Par Assoclit'.on, which convened at the Battery Park Hotel tonight. Along with them have come many ladies, and it was a fine assemblage that greeted the speakers at the opening session. The conven tion was called to order by Thomas W. Davis, of Wilmington, in the ab sence of Judge T. B. Wtomack, of Ral eigh, chairman of the executive com mittee. The address of welcome on behalf of the Asheville Bar Association and the city was delivered by Julius C. Martin. In -welcoming them he said he hoped that they had not come to Asheville to stay, for there were now eighty-odd lawyers here, but they were glad to have them eat and drink I if they could find it as long as they I desired. He spoke of the 'Objects of the association and wished that a speedier enforcement of the Jaw oouid be brought about. The response was made by Robert W. Winston, of Raleigh, who spoke in the absence of A. B. Andrews, Jr., of Raleigh. Judge Winston responded in a happy vein and spoke of the increasing regard for law in North Carolina. In speak ing of the bravery of lawyers in stand ing up for their viewB in spite of ad verse criticism, he mentioned the po sition of Judge H. G. Connor, who in 1S&3 was discredited on account of his honest views on prohibition,' but had now been selected as judge of the United States District Court. To the new members he prescribed only one word work. He hoped they would become Investigators, fearless and in dependent, and in that way benefit the piofession in this State. The president, L. H. - Clement, of Salisbury ,was then escorted to the hair and delivered his address, tak ing as his general theme the lawyer and his relation to .his clients and the court. Mr. Clement delivered an able and .thoughtful address. He spoke of the lawyer in relation to his clients and what acts were legitimate and what not and then discussed fully the statutes in regard to disbarment of lawyers. He suggested that the stat utes be changed in certain instances as the remedy was not at present full enougn to give me judge iuu power in cases where disbarment was neces- sary. In tracing the relation of the court and the attorney to each other, ne said luai me attorney was an oui- cer of the court and his business was the enforcement of the laws in con nection with the court, and not that his work was a separate business I Tf lnnrirAWn V.fo 1 relation m mma, men mucn displeas ure between them and the court could be avoided and the ends of justice more Peeaiiy met, Japan Honors Memory of Perry.

As before announced in The Argus there is to be a great meeting of farm ers from all sections of Wayne county at the Court House in this city next Monday, Jnly 5, opening at eleven o'clock for the purpose of discussing in common the county's most general and crying need the need for better county roads. This is an age of good road building in the country, with the county as the unit of progressive action, and that county that is not interested and ac tive in the work is not alive to its best interests, and its citizens are not getting out of life, for themselves and their children what this age of devel opment and progress holds for them. It is to be hoped that every farmer in Wayne county will be in attendance at next Monday's" good roads meeting here; for not only will they be thus brought together in conference, but they will have the opportunity of hearing a United States government good roads expert speak on the sub ject, and give instruction as to what manner of road is best for this section of the State and how to expeditiously build them. . - Every farmer is cordially invited and every farmer is expected. KNITTING MILL SALE. Plant Is Bid Off by Mr. C. N. Carr at Eight Thousand Dollars. From Thursday's Daily. The plant of the Goldsboro Knitting Mill, that has been in the hands of a receiver for some weeks, was sold at public auction here today, as previ ously, advertised, and was bid off to Mr. C. M. Carr, of Durham, for $8,000, this being the highest competitive bid. ,In addition to the $8,000 the receiv ers reported 51,900 In Hand, which virtually brought the sale up to $9,600. This sale is subject to confirmation by the court, and if confirmed, we are authorized to say that the plant will be operated by Mr. Carr under the name of "Durham Knitting . Mill No. 5," as he already has four mills un der successful operation. It seems to us that thev plant brought a low figure, but as it was fully and widely advertised to be sold under auction today, prospectors had ample opportunity to avail themselves of the sale, and therefore, we pre sume the sale will be confirmed by the court, unless it be raised 10 psi cent, in the meantime. It is a satisfaction to know that should the sale be confirmed to Mr Carr, he will himself take charge of the plant and : become its resident superintendent, which means that i; will have a successful career and b of inestimable benefit to the labor ele ment and business circles of Golds boro. : Fatal Automobile Accident.

Precaution Should Prevail Against Explosive Accidents.. In the North and West, also in the South, but to a more limited extent, the fourth of July "is celebrated with the help of explosives and noise-making devices of various kinds. As a result there are scores of fatalities and thousands of minor accidents. The near approach of the fourth, which falls on next Sunday and will be celebrated the following day, makes some observations on the meth od of celebrating it pertinent. There is no reason why any lives should be sacrificed or any serious injuries re ceived. The heedlessness of children and the carelessness of their elders are the chief causes. The city of Cleveland, O... stirred by; the casual ties in the past, has adopted this ordi nance: "No person, firm or corporation shall within the city sell, offer for sale, dr have in his possession or cus tody any toy pistol, squib, rocket, cracker or roman candle or fire bal loon or other combustible fireworks or any article for the making of pyro technic display, provided that nothing in this section shall be so construed as to prohibit the board of public ser vice from giving pyrotechnical dis plays in the public parks whenever such board is -thereunto : directed ty resolution of the cduncil." The city of Spokane, Wash., has this law on the books, and it is said to be enforced: "No person shall fire any cannon, gun, rifle, pistol, toy pistol or'firearm of any kind, or . fire or explode any squib, rocket, cracker or Roman can dle or other combustible fireworks, or make use of any sling- within the city." Chicago issues only one license for the sale "of fireworks and only to-l adults, but provides every facility for splendid displays of pyrotechnics in the parks. " Statistics show that last fourth of July 163 persons were killed and 5,623 wounded while celebrating with fire works and otherwise. FREE COTTOX BAGGIIVG, But Will It Remain Permanently n ' the Free List? A-little tremor of delight went up from all over the South when it was announced that the Senate had con sented to place cotton bagging on the free list, thereby abolishing the tariff of sixtenths of a cent per square yard as it exists in the present law and as retained in the House bill. This was made possible by the fact that Senator Aldrich accepted' the proposition without protest, in order to save time. But it is too much to say that it will remain permanently on the free list, as it was understood at the time that the rate paragraph would be the sub ject of considerable discussion when the bill comes upjn conference. So, too, on the other hand, the par agraph which imposes a tariff of three-tenths of a cent per - pound on cotton ties was accepted by the Demo crats in the House, although Senator Culberson gave definite notiee that he will make a fight later on in confer ence to place cotton ties on the free list.;,'- '"'"J T The warm weather appears to be getting in its work in the Senate, and the tired, perspiring members of the upper house show signs of growing restive. They want to get back to the broad verandas of their own homes, and they are consenting to things which otherwise they, would oppose. But unfortunately in the case of cotton bagging at least this does not mean that-they will consent perma nently, and the . whole question will have to jje re-opened in conference. If there is any one item in the tariff schedules which should go on the free list it is cotton bagging. It is more generally, used by the class of people who get no benefits from protection as'a whole than any other item ott the list, with a few exceptions, and it is hoped the Democrats, will make a manful stand for retaining it on the free list when the question does cone up in conference later on.

Question to Be Passed Upon by the ' Supreme Court Raleigh, N. C., June 30 Following a lengthy session of the Council of State, Governor Kitchin issued to night a statement as to the validity of the $500,000 bond issue to the effect that State officers have no doubt of the legality of the act, but since the issue is raised by the prospective purchasers, it is thought best to have the Supreme Court settle the matter as soon as possible after opening the fall session. In the meantime the Raleigh Sav ings Bank, which was awarded the en tire issue as the highest bidder, pays $125,000 and remainder of the $500,000 and premium to be paid when the va lidity of the bonds is settled. This ad vance payment, it is stated, will be returned in the event the act is not sustained. In the ; meantime it will enable the State Hospital Commission to continue its work of enlarging and equipping the State institutions. The trouble grows out of the proviso amendment to the. first section that did not pass three separate roll call readings. It stipulates that $31,000 of the bond issue must apply to the deficit of the Morganton and Golds boro hospitals. Examination for A. k M. College.

He Trembled and His Voice Broke When Shown Expressmen Wlp Mored Dead Girl's Body. Failed to Recognize. New York, June 30. The compla cency of Chung Sin, once the room mate of Leon Ling, who is wanted for the murder of Elsie Sigel on June 9. went all to pieces this afternoon when Arthur Logan, an expressman, walked into the cell where Chung Sin is held as more than a material witness and brusquely shouted, ''Hullo !" Logan is the man who carried the trunk containing the body of the girl downstairs from Leon's room on the day of the murder. He has told the police that Chung Sin is one of the men he saw on the top floor of the house. Chung, on the contrary, has sworn by all his ancestors that he never saw the trunk packed or moved. "You are the man," Logan said in Chung Sin's presence today, "who told me to take the trunk downstairs care fully. There was another slim fellow with you in the room the same that came over to the office half an hour before to give me the order to call for the trunk." "All mistake," protested Chung; "never see you before." The China man's voice broke and he shook as If in fear as Logan was led out, still positive in his Identification. Chung was not kept waiting long before he had another visitor this time Martin Lurla, the chauffeur who drove a Chinaman and a trunk from the Harlem laundry to a chop-suey restaurant in Newark on the morning of June 10. The police had a theory that Chung Sin might have paid the fare and not Leon Ling. But Lurla could not identify Chung Sin and still believes that it 'was Leon he had In his taxicab. A letter from Chung Sin written since his arrest to the Society of the Four Brothers, was intercepted and translated to the district attor ney's office. It protests that the mur der was Tlone by one man, and, there fore, the murderer only " should be held; denounces the authorities and implores aid of all members in free ing him. , The police believe more and more that little reliance can be placed in the various rewards and offers of co operation promised by the clans of Chinatown, and accordingly District Attorney Jerome today wrote John Endicott Gardner, professor of Orien tal language and literature in the Uni versity of the Pacific at San Jose, Cal., requesting his co-operation in the ase as a trustworthy interpreter.
