ONE WILL PAY THAT NEW TAX Nebraska Telephone Only Corporation to Yield Promptly. OTHERS HALT 0B THREATEN SUIT Water Com pa 7 Say It Will Not Have to Par the Oeeapatloa Tax, aa City Has Boaaat llant. Out of the eight public utility corporations affected by the occupation tax ordinance passed by the city council only one comes out with a flat statement that the tax will be paid. One offer defiance and ne c!ares the tax will not be paid, while no statement could be secured from the other six companies. The Nebraska Telephone company an nounces that Its tax will be paid when due and the Omaha Water company announces that its tax will not be paid, Offljlals cf he Omaha & Council Bluffs Street Half way company, the Omaha ''.3a comjisny, the Western Cnlon Telegrnph company and "the Independent Telephone 0 mpany declined to make any definite statement. F. 'A. Nash, president of the Omaha Elec tric Light and Power company, and Man ager Wolfe of the Postal le'fgmpli com pany are out of the city. In the face of- the indecision of the af fected companies and tiie tlirtat of iourt action, Mayor Dahlman Is standing his ground and says he will anpivive Jh ordi nances. He . made this statement Immedi ately after Frank T. Hamilton, president of the Omaha Uaa company, had lift 1ns office after a long conference. Mr. Ham ilton contends that his company Is hit harder than any other In that royalties are now being paid, the combined royalty and occupation tax making a total of ntbrly i per cent. - High Rate tha Barrier. "Were li not for the fact that the Oas company is charging so much for its prod uct I might recommend a change In this one ordinance," said Mayor Dahlman. "With gas at the present high rate 1 am disposed to believe' the company can af ford the tax. If It la paid I will 1 ot per sist in asking for dollar gas, for with the royalties and occupation tax combined the people will be getting practically dollar gae." Q. W. Wattles, president cf ' the Omaha & Council Bluffs Street Rall-vay company, expressed' the opinion of officials of most of the other companies in tne following statement: "Of course an occupation tat of 100,000 a year will make It Impossible for the street railway company to build all the extensions so urgently demanded by the public to keep pace with our rapidly grow lug community, but we -shall do the best w can under the circumstances,' and this is all any reasonable citizen should expect We can only point to the past policy of the company as a guide to Its future pol toy. When a horse is pulling all the load It can carry there Is no use in either add ing to the load or punishing the horse. As to what, if anything,, the company will do in the way of contesting the legality of the occupation tax I cannot speak. This is a matter entirely for. the board of di rectors to decide. . While 1 think there was no public demand to assess an occupation tax .at this. time, still I think the. city coun cil has Acted In good faith In. this matter and haa done what it considered to be Its duly, and I have no complaint to make against it for lta action."

"The occupation tax prinolpl Is ist. however." said Judge Baker.

Gamble Demands Duty on Flax Seed South Dakota Senator . Makes Fight for Restoration of tha Dingley " Drawback. (From a Staff Correspondent.) WASHINGTON-. Aug. 4 tPpeclal Tele gram.) Senator Gamble today mane an ex tended argument on the drawback provision a affecting .flaxseed. The house provision on this matter was the re-enactment of the Dlngley law, which prohibited the draw back. This, was disagreed to by the senate ard a separate provision was passed, pro hibiting a. drawback . as to wheat! wheat flour, flaxseed or products, or by-products of flaxseed.. . Although the provl ms were substantially Identical and there was noth It g, as Senator Gamble claimed, of differ ence between the two; houses, the confer ence committee had arbitrarily stricken out both provisions, leaving these products sub ject to the general drawback provision. Senators -McCumber and Gamble have been co-operating in this matter. The states of both senator are very large producers of flaxseed and It Is a matter of great Im portance to three rotes. These two states, with Minnesota, produce 93 per cent of the flax crops of the United States. To permit the Importation Of flaxseed subject to drawback,' Senator -Gamble contended, would bo likely to glut the market and greatly decrease the prices. The crop has been a most profitable one In the north west and last year the price was J 1.67. The 1'nlted Strtes, so Senator Gamble con tended, produces sufficient flaxseed for domestic consumption, and to admit foreign flaxeed' Wohld be 'a great injustice to the northwestern-farmer. He also showed that as result of the' Dingley law, the produc tion of flaxseed 'as well as the price, had greatly increased and that of thirty lin seed oil milts' In the Ut lted States, twenty four are located 'in the west. The advan tage and profit, he asserted, should elimi nation of the provision prevail, would Inure solely to the mills operated on the At lantic seaboard, controlled and operated by Standard 6il Interests. .The Injustice of the arbitrary action of .the conference commit tee, which is, claimed to be an error, was made clearly apparent, and as a result Sen ators McCumber and Gamble are assured of the co-operation of the member of the conference committee of both houses, and they have .conference they will be able to pass a Joint resolution through both houses correcting the. difficulty and restoring the by-products or .wheat and wheat flour.

' CANNON WILL PUNISH FOES Insurgents Will Lote Their Good Committee Placet. WILL AIINOUNCE LIST TODAY Several Mea Who Hitherto Had Good Assignment Will Flad Thrill eelres Out la the raid Hereafter. WASHINGTON. Aug. 4.-Speaker Cannon la expected to announce hi committee assignments tomorrow. That they will not be satisfactory is already Indicated by gossip heard about the house chamber. The selection which I expected to cause a great deal of comment and Incidentally consider able concern, Js the designation of Repre sentative Weeks of Massachusetts te be chairman of the committee on postoffie and postroads. It I understood that Mr. Weeks does not favor the postal savings banks proposition, and that his attitude with regard to that legislation which was proposed and recom mended by George L. Meyer of Massachu aetta, formerly postmaster general, has had some Influence with Mr. Cannon In select ing him for the head of the postofflce com mittee. Reveral of the Massachusetts delegation look upon a plan to appoint Mr. Weeks to the head of the committee as a clever coup on the part of Senator Crane's followers to endanger the chances of the opposing fac tions In the coming senatorial contest In their state. The fact that Representative Gardner of New Jersey, who would be entitled to the chairmanship of the postofflce committee from the standpoint of rank of service on that committee, today for the first time voted with the rulee "insurgents" and the democrats on the urgent deficiency bill, wa taken to Indicate that he regards Mr. Weeks' appointment as assured. Represent ative Gardner of Massachusetts, who, it is said, also would be affected by the appoint ment of Mr. Weeks, because of his affilia tion with the Lodge forces, Is to lose his chairmanship of the committee on indus trial arts and expositions. It was under stood today that this action would be taken by the speaker because Mr. Gardner was one of the leading "Insurgents'.' at the opening of the present session. Representa tive Rodenburg of Illinois, it la said, will succeed Mr. Gardner. Representative Cooper of Wisconsin, who was aJso an "Insurgent" against the rules, may. retain the chairmanship of the com mittee on insular affairs. It was reported today that President Taft had Intervened with Speaker Cannon In his behalf. On the other hand, It was learned from equally reliable sources that Representative Fowler of New Jersey, who was chairman of the banking and currency committee In the last session, would lose his committee. The fate of Representative Davidson of Wisconsin, another "Insurgent," remains uncertain, He was chairman of the committee on rail ways and canals.

Analysis of Problem. In a thorough going analysis of tho jewelers' problems, Jacob Franks," president, of the Rockford Watch company, told tlfe delegates at the' afternoon 'session that "they must maintain' prices or go to tho wall. "A luxury;" he said, "the sales of which are limited as compared to a necessity, must bear a far larger gross profit than a necessity, otherwise, it is. not upejn a logical basis. Xhe trend of times Is ever advancing. Then why should the Jewelry trade, of all lines of business, stand still? The price gentlemen, on that which you eat and J at which you wear, the rent on the house In which you live and the labor which you must purchase has .steadily advanced In the last ten years, and if your profits do not advance in a like ratio, you imply cannot exist. "The new era in business means or ganization. Industries of a like nature get ting together means the elimination of un just competition means the elimination of enmity between competitors means rather that competitors in a like industry join themseh-ea In an army to meet the common enemy. We are now upon the threshold of a new prosperity, the country is In ex cellent condition, all things point that busi ness In the fall and winter will at least be normal, and that the year 1!U0 will usher in again - a new prosperity period. It Is time tS get 'into camp' and be prepared to take advantage of this wave of prosperity that Is bound to reach us.

D., Aug 4 -(Speclal.)-A gallon of whisky was the caupe of the shooting of Thomas Powell, a young half breed Indian, on the Standing Ruck reser vation by Robert Gllland, another half breed, early Sunday morning. Powell and Gllland had been to the agency to get their . Issue of beef cattle and were driving the cattle home. In the party were two or three other young In dians. In some manner the redskins had procured a gallon of liquor and were par taking of It freely. Powell, under the in fluence ot the liquor, became Insulting and abusive and called Gllland a horsethlef and other namea. Gllland ordered him to stop, and when Powell refused went to his horse and got a revolver from the saddle. Fir ing, a shot in the air Gllland again or dered Powell to stop, but Powell Instead started toward him. Then Glllaru fired, shooting his victim through the abdomen. Gllland then sprang on his horse and rode to Thunder Hawk, where he called up Sheriff Perry of the newly-organized county of Corson, telling of his crime. Perry told hlro to go to Morrlstown and give him self up and wired the railroad to give Gilland a ticket for Morrlstown. Gllland took the train and when he got off at Morrlstown the sheriff was there to meet him. Gllland was brought to Aberdeen, where he waived preliminary examination and waa held by United Stages Commis sioner William Wallace to await the action of the federal court. He is confined in the Brown county Jail here. The Indian agent at Standing Rock states that both Powell and Gllland were usually well-behaved, Powell being especially law-abiding and In offensive when sober. Th man Introduc ing the liquor on the reservation will be prosecuted to the limit if he can be dis covered. Ta Ule aa tha Irafivlal la painlesa compared with the weak lame back kidney trouble cu-.

' MAY BLACKEN STANFORD WHITE Alleged Sensational Letter, Bearing: on III Mode of Life, Are Likely to Be Head Oat la Coart. WHITE PLAIN'S. N. Y., Aug. 4.-The state rested in the Thaw cnne today and from now on It devolves upon Harry K. Thaw and Ills attorney, Charles Morsnhau ser, to offset the testimony of the state's alienists who have sworn without excep tion under examination by District At torney Jerome, that Thaw Is still Insane and would be a menace to the community if released from the asylum at Matteaw-an. Dr. Carlos F. Mac Donald waa the last alienist called by the state. He was fol lowed by John B. Gleason,. Thaw' original advisor after, the shooting of White. Gleason came ta Thaw's aid this after noon, and cleared up a few old mysteries, sweeping away some of Thaw's apparent vagaries upon which Mr. Jerome has dwelt so jHTslstently. Mr. Gleason'a most advantageous statement from the prisoner's standing concerned the dropping of the law firm of Black, Gruber ft Bonynge and of I.. L. Delafleld and the engagement of Delphln M. Delmas as chief counsel for Thaw. This had been done at his (Oleason's order, he said, and waa not done on a whim of1 Thaw's. Haa Sensational Letters. Mr. Gleason. as a lawyer, hope to ehow that Thaw's attitude toward Stanford White was not due to delusion, but waa prompted by what Thaw knew -of White's practices. Mr. Gleason ' has ' about fifty letters received from Thaw which may prove one of the sensations of the hearing if read tomorrow. Mr. Morschauser tried to prove the charges against White to day by reading parte of Evelyn Thaw's testimony at the trials. Thaw's letters to Mr. Gleason bear upon this. It Is thought. Trying to clear Thaw of another "de lusion" Mr. Gleason presented a report of detectives regarding an alleged attempt of Thaw's life on the night of December 24, 190J. ' The wording of -this document was not made public, but It was Introduced to counteract the' state's contentions that Thaw had delusions concerning the "Monk" Kastman gang, which he believed had been engaged by his enemies to beat and per haps kill hint and that aTter White death the architect's' friends entered Into a - conspiracy to "railroad hi slayer to Matleawan." If he can show' that Stanford White and a number of wealthy friends did maintain several establishments where young girls were ruined, and that an attempt really was made on his client's life, Mr. Mors chauser will be able to dissipate some of the "delusion" evidence of the state. He Intimate that h haa om surprises In store for the remaining davs of the hearing, including ten lay witnesses who may testify as to what Thaw knew of White. Tomorrow he will finish reading evidence from testimony of Evelyn Thaw and other witnesses, at the murder trials. His present plan I to have the attorney sum up on Saturday and If possible finish the case this week. Itnllna Create. Troable. The dull routine of expert testimony was Jarred this afternoon by an Interruption from Pletro Capo rale, a wild-looking Ital ian who had been hanging about th place for 'several hour and who tried to force his way Into the room. When the attend ants refused him admission he waved a letter and demanded to see District Attor ney Jerome. Tell Thaw they will rob him a they robbed me of my children," he yelled re peatedly. It developed that he wanted Mr. Jerome to help htm obtain the release of his little girls from the -Juvenile asylum In New York. No weapons were found on him, and after Dr. William J. Meyer, one of Thaw' expert,' had pronounced him prob ably a harmless lunatlo, the man was placed on a train and sent to New York. DEATH RECORD. ' Louis Varaey. NEBRASKA CITY, Neb..
