FIGURES ARE ‘TABULATED Industries Claiming That a Hfgh Tarift Is Necessary to Permit Them to Do Business WIill Be Confronted ‘With Their Corporation Tax Returns. Less Than One Hundred Refusals to Comply With Provisions of Law. Washington, March 81.—Industries olaiming that & large tariff is neces- sary to permit them to do business will be confronted, when the tariff is/ next revised, with their returns under the corporation tax. If their state- ments are found to be true the returns will be accepted as evidence that a high tariff is needed, but if they are not true it will discredit their testi- mony and result in drastic action. This was one of the chief complaints during the taking of testimony by the house ways and means committee by manufacturers asking revision upward in the last congress and the fact that President Taft and his advisers saw in the corporation tax this particular phase for its use has been made pub- lic by officials in the treasury depart- ment. At the present time forty men are working on the returns from cor- porations .under the corporation -tax law, about 315,000 having been re- ceived to date. Approximately only about 1,000 known corporations failed to comply with the law, many of them saying they had dissolved before the end of the calendar year. The num- ber of cases of flagrant refusals to comply with the law for other reasons numbers less than 100 at the present time, say the officials. About $3,000,000 has been paid to the treasury on account of the corpora- tion tax. . Forty-two clerks are at work ex- amining the 316,000 returns made and are disposing of them at the rate of 10,000 a day. Their labors will be completed by May 10. Many blunders have been found.

Mr. -Speare, a native-pastor at-the mission in Cape Palmas, has been shot and killed and the lives of the white residents are said to be in danger. Hostile natives appear to be getting the better of the troops. The latter were sent to stop the native trade in French territory. It was their ex- cesses that caused the outbreak. The natives are said to be anxious to have a few Englishmen killed, with the ob- ject of bringing about intervention by Great Britain. The Liberian gunboat Lark, tempor- arily commanded by a German officer, has bombarded the native villages, but done little damage. A German gun- boat arrived and its commander of- fered to bombard Hoffman station, but the authorities declined assistance. PINCHOT KEEPS UNDER COVER Deposed Forester Cannot Be Located - in Europe.

St. Paul, March 31.—Captain Timo- thy Murphy, ‘missing head -of the St. Paul corps of the Volunteers. of Amer- ica, has returned home. He did not bring back the $1,250 of the Volunteers’ fund he took away with him, but tells a startling story of having been kidnapped and robbed and held a prisoner ever since his dis- appearance a week ago last Monday. Murphy says two men in an automo- bile pulled him into the machine when he left the Woodland Park Baptist church with the money in his posses- | sion and drugged him. He says when he recovered consciousness he was in & dark room somewhere near the rail- road tracks. He said the men took the money away from him and re- marked: “This is easier than Carling's,” indi- cating that they were the Carling hold- ups. Murphy had $110 in Canadian money in his pocket. Captain Murphy was arrested short- 1y after his return and at the Central police station was thoroughly ex- amined to ascertain his condition. At the conclusion of the examination Po- lice Surgeon Dohm said: “There is absolutely nothing the matter;with him except that he.is suf- fering from the mnervous effects of drinking. He first feigned injury and complained of a pain in his back, but there is no trace of any spinal injury. Then he changed his tactics and feigned - sickness. Our examination ‘was thorough and I am sure that there is nothing wrong with him. It looks to me like a pure fake. -There is no trace of any drug.” AFFECTS ' MANY THOUSANDS Pennsylvania Railroad Grants General Increase in Wages.
