CAUCUS AMENDS INCOME TAX
Senate Democrats Advance, Rates on
Larger -Fortunes.
SEVEN PER CENT IS MAXIMUM
All Income of Half Million or More
Yearly to Pay ThU Rate Ex

on Saturday.
WASHINGTON, Sept 6.-Democrat of
the senate began early today what ad
ministration leader hoped wilt be tho
last caucus over the stumbling blocks In
the tariff bill. Every possible effort was
being made to rush odds and end of
the measures Into place for a vote on
the bill In the senate by tomorrow night
The senate waited until 2 p. m. while
democrats were endeavoring to agree on
an amendment to tho income tax and to
satisfy difficulties In their ranks on
minor points.
Another caucus may be necessary to
night to consider amendments by Senator
Newland of Nevada, who returned from
the west today.
After several hours' debate on various
amendments to Increase the tax on larger
Incomes the caucus finally adopted the
amendment proposed In the finance com
mittee by Senator Smith of Georgia.
That leaves the normal tax at 1 per cent
a 13,000 minimum and provide an addi
tional tax of 1 per cent' on
Income over 110,000 to $50,000 ; 2 per
cent additional on income between $50,000
and 175,000; i per cent on Incomes from
175,0000 to $100,000; 4 per cent on Incomt-s
between $100,000 and $30,000; S per cent on
1S0.0CO to $500,000, and 6 per cent addi
tional on incomes In excess of $600,000.
It would make the maximum tax on In
comes over $500,000 7 per cent.
After disposing of the Income tax the
caucus took up the proposed tax on cot
ton future deals, which was originally
proposed by Senator Clark of Arkansas,
but which Senator Smith of South Caro
lina insisted should be amended so as to
attfect only illegitimate transactions.
The caucus refused to reconsider its
former approval of an amendment to lm
poso a tax of one-tenth of 1 cent per
pound on cotton futures, the tax to bo
refunded In case where actual deliver
ies were mode.
Cotton Pit In Panic.
NEW YORK, Bept, 5. Reports that the
democratic -caucus of the senate had
agreed to the proposed tax rate of one
tenth of 1 per cent to ba laid on trading
in cotton futures, threw the local cotton
market into a seml-demorallxed condi
tion late this afternoon. Prices broke $1
per bale from their high level of the
day under general liquidation and the
market closed feverish at a net loss of
S3 to 41 points. The Washington new
did not reach the exchange until late and
more than half the decline occurred In
the last ten minute of trading.
