EXCEEDS ALL ESTIMATES Volume of 'Money Pouring Into the Treasury Has Steadily Increased Since Last Fall-Great Busiriess ‘Boom Largely Responsible. <5 e Chicago, May 28.—Chairman Charles D. Hilles of the republican national committes today expressed the opinion that the platform which will be adopt- ed by the national convention next month will be unusually brief and deal only with the most yital public questions. From information obtain- ed from talking with party leaders on the subject, he believes the princi- ple planks in the platform will inciude the following: Some Planks in Platform. A statement on Americanism. A statement on preparedness for adequate military and naval defense. A declaration in favor of a protec- tive tariff to be prepared by a non- partisan tariff commiftee created by congress, with a special attention to the needs of the industries of this country after the close of the Europ- ean war. A declaration in favor of a mer- chant marine, A statement dealing with alleged shortcomings of the democratic na- tional administration. led on Woman Suffrage. On the question of national woman suffrage, Chairman Hilles said, there ‘was a difference of opinion among the party leaders and he.did not know what action the convention ‘would take on_the subject. The National Congressional Union is the first organization to make formal application to appear before the committee on resolutions of the convention. It will urge republicans to insert a plank in favor of a suffrage amendment to the constitution and Chairman Hilles has promised the women a hearing before the committee. The only other organization thus far to ask for a hearing is the Navy League of the United States, which will send a committee of 25 headed by its president, Robert M. Thompson, to plead for a plank for the enlarge- ment of the navy. Probable Action of Progressives. In speaking of the probable .action of the ® national conven- progressiv tion, call to be held June 7 in Chi- cago;™; '~ With the repub- lican national convention, Chairman Hilles said: . o “I imagine exerybody assumes that the: progressives - will = nominate Roosevelt for president. If the con- vention adopts a straightforward, sincere, ringing declaratjon of the vi- tal public questions now being dis- cusses and nominates a man clearly equal -to the important tasks which will €onfront the next prgsident, Roosevelt might not think = there would be any need of his entering the field. But if the republicans nomin- ate a man who Mr. Roosevelt thinks is a:misfortune and adopt a plat- form which he regards as ‘bunk’ he may feel so outraged as to run and perhaps help to reelect President Wil- son.” NEW OFFICE CREATED BY NEW HAVEN ROAD J. O. Halliday Superintendent of Transportation Department. New Haven, Conn., May 28. — The ffice of superintendent of transpor- tatidn department has been created by the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad, it was announced heer today. J. O.

Imports of American Oil Cut Off by the British Blockade. Zurich, Switzerland, May 28.—With imports of American oil cut off by the British blockade, petroleum companies in have been unable to sup- ply the demand, and the situation cre- ated by these conditions accounts for the enormous profits shown in the 1915 report of the German Petroleum com- pany, just issued. These profits amounted to nearly $5,000,000, or a re- turn of 65 per cent. on the capital. De- ducting payment of the government’ special’ war tax on profits, the net profits for the year were $3,150,000, or about 41 per cent. on the capital. ‘The company has declared a dividend of 20 per cent, as compared with 12 per cent. in 1914, when the profits were $1,625,000. - Of the 1915 net profits, the company set aside $200,000 for an association of workmen and others employed, and subscribed $200,000 to the national fund for the survivors of the war. e o WAITE WANTS NO APPEAL MADE IN HIS BEHALF. Convicted Dentist Says He is Satis- fied With the Verdict. New York, May 28.—A declaration|b S ‘Washington, May 29—Half a billion dollars will be the government’s in- ternal revenue tax toll for the fiscal year ending June 30 next, according to a statement issued today by Secre- tary McAdoo. This sum, which Mr. McAdoo says exceeds by many mil- lions all previous estimates, will be ‘made up substantially as follow: The Greater Sources of Income. Taxes on whiskey, beer, cigars, ci- garettes _and tobacco, $303,000,000. Taxes on the incomes of individuals and corporations, $115,000,000. - Emer- gency tax collections $82,000,000. Money Pouring Into Treasury. ‘The volume of money pouring into the treasury has steadily increased month by month since last fall until it is now greater than at any time since the effects of the war began to be felt. Mr. McAdoo acecounts for the situation as follows: Business Boom Responsible. The great boom in business is large- ly responsible for the increase in re- ceipts from ordinary internal revenue. The prosperity of the-country with the attendant wider scopé of employment and increase in wages, has, in itself, resulted in.a larger consumption of taxable articles, greatly augmenting the government's revenues. Whiskey Increased—Beer Decreased. . Consumption of whiskey, cigars and cigarettes and tobacco has increased, according to revenues received, while consumption of beer has decreased during the fiscal year. For the first ten months of the fiscal year, receipts of taxes on cigars, cigarettes and to- bacco increase $5,505,121 over the cor- responding period a year ago, due, in Ej;'t, the statement says, to the great pro vement in business conditions. The statement contimes: otwithstanding the spread of pro- hibition, collectors on distilled spirits for the first ten months of the current ‘Year increased 310,013,140 lover the corresponding period of a year ago. This is due in great measure to the effective enforcement of the internal revenue-iaxes on distilled spirits. It is- uflm;fitu;ht.hu throu; the cam- undergausging, equafllewmh!umfl ing in distilleries, the revenue of the government has been increased by probably $50,000,000 annually. Beer Only A.l'!i-:l. Showing Decrease. The only article of taxation showing. a decrease is beer. Because of the relatively low tax on fermented li- quors and the difficulty of getting un- tax-paid beer on the market, the com- missioner says that the loss in tax on beer, on account of fraud has been negligible and that the decrease is due principally to the increase in the prohibition law.

One of the physicians in attendance upon James J. Hill intimated that a certain _infrequently-used sedative might be of some possible slight ben- efit to the patient. Other doctors pres- ent; questioned the possible -efficiency of ‘this, madlelé:‘a and,” as !dm arsu- ment against the use, stated that none Of it ‘could Be "cb}ald:g @ny point nearer than Chi e i “Special Train Sent for Sedative.

Eliseo Arredondo, the Mexican ambassador-designate, may deliver the ‘communicatioh to- morrow. Otherwise its delivery will probably be postponed until Wednes- day, government offices being closed Tuesday—Memorial day. * So far no official summary of the new note has been received but all information supports the belief in official quarters that it will renew the suggestion that the American expe- dition be withdrawn. There is no indication that the administration is prepared to grant such a demand. NEW HAVEN PATROLMAN SHOOTS A FLEEING YOUTH The Boy Refused to Stop at Mis Com- mand—Victim Claims Innocence.
