By agreement paragraphs relating to corporation taxes were under consideration, the pending question being the amendment McEnery of Louisiana, exempting from the corporation tax ‘“limited liability commercial partnerships or corporations and companies or corpora- tions of limited liability conducting planting or farming business or pre- paring for market products of the soil.” Allen of braska thought if the amendment included the big sugar cor- porations it ought not to be adopted. Daniel of Virginia expressed his oppo- sition to the amendment, saying that he thought farming and planting inter- ests w sufficiently protected in the pending bill. Frye of Maine declared that the proposed tax on corporations was a good scheme to encourage enlist- ment in the United States army. “I fully and firmly believe,” said he, “that if this feature of the bill be en- acted into law one million men will be out of work.” Platt of Connecticut declared that the corporation tax Wwas Unnecessary, and he believed it unconstitutional. Lindsay of Kentucky, in the course of an extended legal argument upon the corporation tax feature of the bill, said it was impossible for the Govern- the war revenue measure was | ment to levy tax on consumption and on_industry. He FALLING OFF IN TTKON TRAFFIC Charterers of Vessels Disappointed. SMALL PASSENGER LISTS RATE WAR MAY SOON BE UNDER WAY. Owners Hope That the Government Will Charter Some of the Craft for Troop Ships. Special Dispatch to The Call. TACOMA, May 24—As the Yukon River season approaches it is becoming evident that more steamers have been brought around from England and the Atlantic Coast for the St. Michael route than the business now in sight avill justify. Rates have been estab- lished, but it is considered very doubt- ful if the smaller steamers will main- tain them if, as seems likely, they see the larger part of the business going to larger and bc‘ter equipped boats. Owners and charterers of St. Michael steamers are somewhat worried. They see clearly that their vessels will not have full passenger lists on the first trip leaving the Sound early in June, and base their hopes for a fairly successful season on two things: First, that several steamers now booking for | St. Michael, such as the Ohio and the Pennsylvania, will be chartered by the | Government for troop ships; and sec- | ond, that the arri-al of treasure ships early in July will cause such a Klon- | dike rush that their steamers will be crowded on their second and possibly their third trips to St. Michael. The British steamer Pakshan is one | of the vessels offered by its charterers | to the Government. through strong in- fluence at Washington the Danish steamer Centennial, now at Seattle, has been given an American register for troopship parpos The largect steamer chartered for the St. Michael trade is the 4000 ton steel steamship Garonne, due in ten days from London, where she was taken out of the Orient Royal Mail line between | London and Australia. She has 2000 | tons of British supp..es aboard for Yu- | kon trading posts. Over fifty Yukon River steamers have been built at San | Francisco, Tacoma, Portland, Everett, Seattle and Dutch Harbor. on Ballard There are fifteen boats now river. promises to be almost a continuous line of smoke above the sinuous Yukon. Difficulty is now being experienced get- ting pilots and engineers for all these craft. " Vote against the new charter be- cause section 22, article 2, chapter 1 is in conflict with section 8, article | 11 of the constitution. That section authorizes the amendment of the charter whenever a petition shall be | | presented. The constitution provides | | that it shall be amended only at in- | tervals of two years at either general ‘or special elections. /CONDEMN THE PROPOSED maintained that it was the part of wis- | dom for Congress to enact only such legislation trovérsy in the courts. t emergency.in the country s ought to give to th Congre: ernment dollar which to con as would be beyond con- In this time of Gov- and not lawsuits with t the war.

I'd lke to know whether they are such unadulterated patriots.” “The difference between me and the Senator from Missouri,” replied Lindsay, “is that he still believes the gold raiding syndicates are patriots and I do not. They will take every ad- vantage offered them, even in time of war.” At the conclusion of Lindsay’s speech the revenue bill was laid aside. On motion of Allison the Senate agreed to meet at 11 o'clock to-mor- row. After the transaction of some routine business the Senate then at 4:33 p. m. went into executive session, after which the Senate adjourned. Visalia Repuablican Club.

ANGLO-SAXON ALLIANCE. of this kind except | United Irish Societies of Chicago Pass Resolutions Denouncing It as Suicidal. CHICAGO, May 24.—The United Irish societies of Chicago, at a big mass meeting in Central Music Hall, presid- ed over by John M. Smythe, adopted resolutions emphatically condemning the suggested alllance between the United States and Great Britain. The resolutions denounce the alliance as un- called for, and greatly at variance with | American traditions and the senti- ments of a majority of the American people who are not of British birth or ancestry. It is declared that such an | alliance would result in a Eurcpean combination against the United States and would make us partners in the | crimes of the British nation against weaker states and defenseless people. | The resolutions “call upon the Ameri- executive and legis- lative, to repudiate a policy so suicidal that it cannot fail to fall with disgust on millions of loyal American citizens.” The principal speaker, John G. Finerty, s aid: “We will fight this alllance on the platform and at the polls. We are will- ing and eager to fight for America, but we will never fire a shot or lose a sin- gle drop of blood for England.” ki, |LEMON MARKET IN AN UNSETTLED CONDITION. Attributed to the Backward Spring, ‘Which Has Checked the Demands of Consumption. NEW YORK, May 24.—The Journal of Commerce says: The market for lemons is in a somewhat unsettled condition, which is attributed to the cold and wet spring, which has checked demands for consumption. The limited demand from the West so far this season is attributed to greater competition from California, which, with a liberal crop, has reached out into new markets, to the detriment of business in Sicily fruit in the West. Notwithstanding the fact that California lemons have, up to recent sale, had West- ern markets against imported fruit, the latter is now beginning to receive more attention from Western trade, and it is said that it will hold up better during the hot weather than the Pacific Coast prod- uct, and for that reason Middle West handlers of green fruits have recently shown more disposition to buy Sicily lemons for their late spring and summer requirements. At late auction sales, it is reported, brokers have had many orders to fill from Western clients, and it is stated their bids have done much to keep the market up to its present level. ADDRESSED BY DR. LAW. Practical Advice to the Pacific Coast Students’ Conference. SANTA CRUZ, May 24—The work of l.the Pacific Coast students to-day was somewhat different from that of pre- vious days, the first hour beinz de- voted to a president’s conference, in which the presidents of the college dele- gations discussed leadership methods tc be employed in future work. The presidents’ conference was followed by a missionary conference, which was jed by B. L. St. John and then the address of Rev. Dr. V. Marshall Law, rector of the Church of the Advent of Oakland, was delivered. Dr. Law talked to the conference about the vital questions of a career in life which always confronts the young man upon his entrance into the active work of the world and touched upon the benefits and disadvantages of the various ‘business careers. He showed the inestimably greater value of follow- ing the calling of a servant of the Lord, | the | Betwee: June and Uctober there | WINNERS OF EASTERN RACES Sorrow Captures a Six- Furlong Event.
