HE IS AGAINST INCOME TAX tew York Statesmen Pmaonaeee It an "Unwise Measare" - Senator Borah of Irfsho Is Still Hostile. WA8HINQTOIT. July I Senator Ellhu Root of New Tork, who, with Attorney General Wlckersham. drafted the Taft plan for a corporation tax, made a brief speech In the senate today In suppport of that form of taxation, as against an Income tax. Speeches In opposition to the administra tion plan were mnde by Mr. Borah of Idaho and Mr. Clapp of Minnesota, both republicans, and a number of brief speeches were made by other senators on both sides of the question. The senate "came within one" of agree ing to vote next Tuesday on the entire Income tax amendment to the tariff bill. Including the corporation tax substitute. The compact was prevented by the objec tion of Senator Bulkeley and. bis opposition aroused no little feeling. . It was apparent when Senator Flint made his proposition for a vote that the discus sion of the Income tax question had been irnost If not quit exhausted. Senators Little Interested. It was evident throughout the entire day that the corporation tax question had failed to arouse as much Interest In the senate as had been expected and some suggestions were heard in support of a proposition looking to the postponement of the entire Income tax question, including corporation tax and lnherltanct tax, until the regular sesslcn In December. The corporation tax was taken up I romptly when the senate met today. Mr. Borah had resumed his speech which ho btgan yesterday when he was Interrupted by Senator McCumber of North Dakota, a ho disavowed any sympathy with Senator Aldrich's remarks as to bis reason for supporting the corporation tax. He de clared that Mr. Aldrich bad not spoken for members of th; finance committee gen erally. "The personal reasons of that senator, for his support of the corporation tax," said Mr. McCumber, referring to Chairman Aid rich of the finance committee, "were not put forth as reasons which actuated the oommlttee in any respect. He gave them as his own personal reasons. I do not understand that a single other member of the committee ' agreed with him la that respect." Clapp's Sharp Query. "Should not the senator from North Da kota poll the finance committee before he attempts to voice their views?" inquired Senator Clapp. Denying that he had attempted to voice the sentiment of the committee, Mr. . Mo Cumber declared he only wanted to make clear the fact that Mr. Aldrich did not voice that sentiment. He added that he would prefer the Income tax to a tax cor poration if It could be made constitu tional. i win snow later," said Mr. Borah, "not only from the statement of the chairman of the finance committee, but will prove beyond a doubt, that this corporation tax had its origin In desire to defeat the Income tax. And when It shall have served Its purpose, it will die, as the great leader In this chamber said, an ignominous death. " In opposing the corporation, tag. the Id aho senator declared be was following in the footsteps of leaders of his party. He recalled the corporation tax proposed by the minority as a war measure In 1898. declaring It was not rejected by the repub lican majority as a matter of expediency. not because the tax was not necessary, but because of the principles It Involved. He read extraoU from a. speech by Senator Lodge made In 1SK8 in strong opposition to the corporation tax proposed by the democratic minority. Senator Borah charged that the men who were now advocating the plan of submit ting the Income tax question to the states for the amendment of the constitution would be found against the amendment when It reached their own states. This charge aroused Mr. Flint of the finance oommlttee, who said he would favor the amendment in . California and expressed confidence the amendment would carry He predicted that the corporation tax would not be repealed as Mr. Aldrich had prophesied. Root for Taft Plan. Senator Root made a short speech. Con cluding he said: "Oentlenien may say I am for a cor poration tax to beat the Income tax. am for the corporation tax because J think it is better policy, better patriotism and higher wisdom than the general Income tax at this time. I wish to beat the income tax provision because I think It is unwise and wish to pass a corpor ation tax provision because . I think It ' Is wise." He viewed the Income tax as a means for dislodging the protective tariff and de clared that In his judgment the proposed Income tax would raise from 15O,0O0,00Q to 1200,000,000 annually. , "I think," said the New York senator. I'the United States ought to have the power to lay and collect income tax because I want my country to have the power to ummoo every dollar possible to lis relief in times of stress." He said he would advocate the opproval oy ine legislature or New Tork of the proposed constitutional amendment for that purppse. Replying to Mr. Bacon, Mr. Root said those who had considered and framed the pending corporation tax had agreed that they could not reach the bonds of cor poratiuns In the bands of the bondholders consistent with the decisions of the su preme court. Severely criticising the corporation tax amendment. Senator Clapp called atten tion to the president's message, in which he said savings banks and building and loan associations should be excepted from the provisions of such a measure. "And yet," he said, "this amendment which we are told he approved Included savings banks and building and loan as sociations." The publicity feature of the corporation tax measure, he said, provided vsry honest returns for the purpose of taxation. It aa not framed, he said, to bring out aay secret agreements that might exist be tween corporations and was, la fact, a mere myth. Denouncing the corporation tax as a plan to shift the burden of taxa tion on consumers, Mr. Clapp predicted lu early repeal when the people come to understand lis real meaning. Interpreting the language of the consti tution relating to the laying of "direct" taxes as referring to the state and not to Individuals. Senator Owen declared that this view ought to be ccnsMered by the supreme court. The court, he said, had I never had that Interpretation brought to its attention and If It should sustain that I view there would be no question about the constitutionality of an Income lax amendment.

REFUSES TO OBEY HIS ORDERS Failed to Remore Men Who Were Responsible for Keeping; Boy's Picture In Rogues' Gallery Victory for fiayuor. NEW TORK, July 1. One of the mwt drastic upheavals In New York City's police history- occurred today when Mayor Mc Clellan summarily removed Commissioner Theodore A. Bingham for Insubordination after the latter's refusal to comply with certain revolutionary orders Issued by the mayor yesterday. s ' The mayor's orders came at the conclu tion of his Investigation Into the alleged persecution by the police of George B. Duffy, an Inconspicuous and almost friend less Brooklyn lad. who, It. was averred. was repeatedly ai rested without Just cause and whose photograph was retained in the rogues' gallery despite the failure of the police tp. obta'n a conviction against him. .The mayor, held that at .least two of (leneial Bingham's lieutenants were guilty of mtvconducl In this affair and accordingly he demanded their removal. nisghsra'i Henchmen Go,- Too. With General Bingham's retirement today went several of his cluHest advisers and the' leading supporters of his regime. As Ihe head, of tho new regime the mayor at once appointed William F. Baker, hitherto a deputy commissioner, who indicated that a considerable change in the policy of the department was to be expected. "The law will hereafter be enforced," Baker declared, "with reference to the fact that New York Is a cosmopolitan city with cosmopolitan porulatton." General Blneham and his friends were outspoken tonight in their declaration that the principal reusons for the mayor's act were political and that the commissioner's independence of the politicians had resulted in his removal only a few months before the Important municipal election of the autumn, v,. . Bingham's Statement. In a statement tonight the commissioner ald: . - "I leav the office with very little re gret It Is a fatiguing task and this Is what it leads to. Politics have brought about this change. I have done the beet I oould to give the city a clean and hon est administration, free from any tinge of party politics. But with the approach of an election,' the bosses are satisfied that It would never do to have a police commis sioner who gave a square deal all around. "There are many things In . the adminis tration of New York's police system which should be changed. I was changing them as .fast as possible too fast, I guess, from the outcome. "Abova all, I have tried to keep the po lice department free from political con trol and It Is safe to say that as a result I have . been the most unpopular police commissioner among the politicians that New York has. ever, had." . There were many ready tonight to take up the . cudgel in behalf of General Bing ham, and today the head of the Cltlsens' union gave out . a statement in which he said: "We are with General Bingham, because we know he has not handled the police force In the interest of any politicians or party. In view of the vital Importance of a fair election and an honest count this fall, we had hoped that he would continue in office.". la Retired Army Officer. General Bingham, who Is a native of Connecticut and a graduate of West Point, came to the New York police department shortly after he had retired from tho United States army with the rank of brigadier general. He was then wideiy known in Washington, throughout army circles and at several diplomatic posts In Europe. He occupied the post of super intendent of public grounds and buildings (at Washington, but when Mr. Roosevelt succeeded President McKlnley frequent differences of opinion between the two re sulted In General Bingham's removal to an army post in Buffalo, where the loss of a leg In the performance of his duties resulted In his retirement. ' His appointment as police commissioner was Mayor McClellan's declaration of In dependence of Tammany, and of opposition to political control of the police. During the four years he has held the office Gen eral Bingham has been In many con troversies and strong pressure has been asserted at time to compel him to resign. He repeatedly declared his Intention, how ever, of retaining his office until the ex piration of his term next year. ' Oaaor In Limelight.
