The letter ie written to T. m. Me

County, and la aa follows:
Answering your letter of Decem

come tax return for llll^and request
that I pass upon the exemptions
claimed therein, I beg to say that
this is your duty as coufity auditor
You are to apply to each case as It
comes up, the principle* laid down
in the instructions already issued
from this offlee, and I think you could
FMLDKRm ROQK ON BLEASE
to my letter to you of March 9, 1909,
together with the recent circular sent
you. However, I have looked over
the return sent me, from which it
appears that the taxpayers proposed
paying upon their ner Income, instead
0/ the gross income required by law.
This, of course, is wrong. For In
stance: They state they received
15,018.75 rents from city property
which they rent out; from this they
deduct as non-taxable |1,407.66 for
taxes paid, $374 for Insurance upon
property, and $1,048.92 Interest upon
debts that they owe, and $501.88 for
expenses of repairs, collecting rents,
etc.
“The Items of Insurance and In
terest are clearly not to be deducted
as expenses of carrying on business.
This Is a small flx;d charge upon the
capital owned by the taxpayer
“The $501.88 for repairs and col
lections should be looked into and so
much as was paid out as commis
sions for -renting the property and
collecting the rents is to be deducted
from the gross rents as a part of the
necessary expenses In their produc
tion. But nothing should be deduct
ed on account of repairs and Im
provements to the property.
“I doubt whether the taxes which
are deducted in this return are the
taxes only upon the real estate. It
appears that these taxes are tne taxes
upon all of the taxpayers' property,
and do not pertain to these rents
alone.
"Aa to the estimated expenses of
the taxpayers' warehouse business, of
course the actual expenses of such
business are to be d« ducted from the
gross Income made in such business.
But no deduction car. be made on ac
count of payments to pastor s salary
or charity or on account of bad debts
or accounts lost. These are In no
sense a part of the expenses of pro
ducing the Income from the business.
“You should also look Into what Is
the actual income from this ware
house business. The taxpayers state
It Is 5 per cent, profit on $100,000

HOW
i
He Attempts to Take Credit From
the Democratic House for Getting
After Russia for Ill-treating the
Jews by Turning It Over to the
Senate.
President\aft turned over to the
Senate Monday the taak of complet
ing the abrogation of the treaty of
1832 with Russia, because of alleged
discriminations against American cit
izens of Jewish faith. The House on
Saturday passed a resolution demand
ing this action.
Ignoring the House of Representa
tives, the President sent a message to
the Senate announcing that on Friday
last, he had caused notice to be for
warded to St. Petersburg that the
United States desired the treaty to
end January 1, 1913. This notifica
tion was officially banded to the rep
resentative of the Russian Govern
ment Sunday.
Mr. Taft asked the Senate to ratify
and give effect to his action. The
foreign affairs committee of the Sen-
.te voted unanimously to report a res-
olution of ratification, couched in dip
lomatic terms, and Senator Lodge of
fered It later in the Senate.
There was every reason to believe
that the resolution would be pushed
through, inasmuch as the Senate com
mittee, as an act of courtesy to the
House, had decided that the lower
ranch of Congress should be asked to
concur In the Senate’s action.
Senator Heyburn, of Idaho, how
ever, took the floor and after pro
testing vigorously against hasty ac
tion, asserted his right under the
rules and by formal objection’ threw
further consideration of the matter
over until Tuesday, when It was tak
en up and the President's suggestions
were carried out.
Democratic leaders, both In the
Senate and the House, are determined
to claim credit for the abrogation cf
the treaty. Senators Culberson, of

Large Stores of Dynamite.
People who for weeks unknowingly
lived near enough dynamite to blow
up the neighborhood and whose chil
dren skated over the floors of a va-
vant house in which nttro-glycerlne
had been spilled, tertifled In the Gov
ernment’s investigation of the dyna
mite conspiracy before the Federal
grand jury at Indianapolis, Ind., on
Tuesday.
Witnesses from Muncie, Ind., were
questioned concerning what they
knew of tho renting of a house in
Muncie to Ortle McManlgal in De
cember, 1909. After paying rent for
several months in advance, McMani-
gal stored it with boxes and sawdust
in which he packed nitro-glycerlne.
The fact that the rent had been
paid and the house always In dark
ness, was visited periodically by a
stranger, created an element of mys
tery, which still was unsolved even
after the place again deserted was
thrown open and school children
skated over the floors upon which
appeared grease spots.
Later It was found the spots were
caused by nitro-glycerlne and ex
perts were called to destroy the ex
plosive power. Among the witnesses
from iMuncle were Mrs. Elizabeth
Hlner, Isaac Grant and a manufactur
er who sold boxes to’McWanigal. The
evidence was traced by the Investi
gators, n6t only to confirm McMani-
gal's confession, which implicates
John J. and James B. McNamara, but
also to bring out who, if any, as
sisted them.
Other expressions of horror at dis
covering they had been living near
explosives came from members of the
family of D. Jones, a farmer near In
dianapolis. For a long time prior to
his arrest on April 22, 1911, J. J.
Mcamara, secretary-treasurer of the
International Association of Bridge
and Structural Iron Workers, on the
pretext that he was storing old rec
ords, kept In Jones’ barn, a piano box
filled with dynamite, from which Mc
Manlgal replenished his supply when
going on dynamiting expeditions.
The piano box still had twenty-five
pounds of dynamite in it, when Jones,

“It is rather remarkable that the
gross income should be exactly 5 per

“1 notice in the expenses proposed

rents and warehouse are $735 for
farm expenses. These are clearly no
part of the expenses of producing
rents or warehouse Income. While
the taxpayer charges $735 on farm
expenses he returns no gross Income
whatever from the farm, hence the
farm expenses are not to be consid

connection with the Income from that

relations committee, served prelimi
nary notice to this effect in the Sen
ate Monday. Senator Culberson ac
cused President Taft of trying to strip
the House of one of its prerogatives
and asserted that the President was
trying to steal Democratic “thunder.”
In his message to the Senate, Pres
ident Taft transmitted a copy of the
letter which American Ambassador
Guild, at St. Petersburg, had trans
mitted to the Russian foreign offlee.
n it was expressed the view of the
United States that the old treaty no
longer met the political principles or
commercial needs of the t^o nations
and should be terminated.
Senator Culberson ssld Monday
night that he could not venture a pre
diction as to how far the Democrats
of the Senate would go In their oppo
sition to the Lodge resolution, or any
other resolution approving the action
of the President in taking the matter
out of the hands of Congress. Al

olution in the Huv.he.

ocrats,’’ he said, “that the President
la trying to steal their thunder. I
think the country ought to be made
acquainted with the facts.”
The Senate upon convening lost no
time in taking up the question. Im
mediately after the reading of the
Journal, an executive clerk from the
White House appeared with the Pres
ident’s message and It was at once
read to the Senate, receiving unusual
ly close attention.
With the message disposed of, Sen
ator Lodge presented the report of
the committee on foreign relations,
with the resolution provided as a sub
stitute- for the House declaration.
In speaking of the matter the
Washington correspondent says polit
ical Washington is an agog over the
effort of President Taft to take the
lead in the movement to abrogate
the Russian treaty, after the House
bad acted for abrogation against the
Executive’s expressed wish that the
matter be deferred until after the
holidays.
It Is understood that a great game
cf politics is being played, with the
credit for abrogation aa the prize.
The Democratic leaders, while not
objecting to such alterations in the
words of the House resolution as may
seem advisable, are Inclined to re
sent the President’s effort to disre
gard the House In the handling of
the subject.
There la a feeling that the Presi
dent unwarrantedly affronted the
House when he sent his message of
Monday to the Senate only. There will
be fireworks In Congress about this
before the holiday recess, unless all
signs fall.

WHAT FRANCIS HENEY SAYS.
Thinks Woodrow Wilson Would Beat
President Taft.
Francis J. Ileney, fighting lawyer
and reformer from San Francisco,
says it is his emphatic belief that if
Governor Woodrow Wilson and Pres
ident Taft are opposing candidates
for the presidency next year the New
Jersey executive will walk away with
the plum. He doubts, however, if
Taft will even be nominated, as the
office-holders, who form the backbone
of his support at the present, time are
likely to become panic-stricken when
they discover that the President has
little or no chance to succeed him
self.
