The Mellon tax plan, having been rejected by Congress, was not represented in the bill which became law by the president's signature, but it carried the Simons-Longworth income tax schedules—the compromise effected as a result of the refusal of the Democrats and Republican insurgents to accept the administration rates. The president will issue a statement for morning newspapers in which he will set forth his detailed opinion of the measure as compared with the Mellon plan, which he advocated, it was learned.

SEEK FEDERAL AID FOR HARBOR WORK WASHINGTON, June 2—Improvement of the Log Angeles Long Beach harbor was recommended to congress today by the TEN KILLED IN WADASH RY. WRECK WILLIAMSPORT, Ind., June 2. Ten persons were killed and between 40 and 50 injured early today when a crack Wabash passenger train crashed into a westbound freight train on a sliding west of here. The dead: E. P. Phillips, bearing credentials of an employee of the Ford Motor Co. of Detroit. Rabbi P. Goldberg, New York. Mrs. W. H. Pauley, Decatur, Ill. Mrs. Annie Halloway, Toledo, Ohio. Walter L. Mitchell, St. Louis. C. Burkhardt, Peru, Ind. George Koramo, St. Louis. An unidentified man. The train was a fast passenger, northbound from St. Louis for Detroit and New York, leaving St. Louis at 6:30 o'clock last night and scheduled to arrive in Detroit at 7:15 o'clock this morning. The passenger coaches were telescoped by the crash into the freight and many of the injured were scaled. The injured, several of whom may die, were rushed to hospitals in Williamsport and Danville. W. H. Eckert, superintendent of the Wabash, issued a statement today placing responsibility for the wreck upon Davis E. Torrence, brakeman of freight train No. 79. The freight train was ordered onto the side at Williamsport and because of its length was split and placed on two sidetracks. The switch at the second siding was left unlocked, Superintendent Eckert said. Train No. 50, another fast northbound Detroit flyer, struck it; the engine, baggage car and express car passed over safely. The remaining five coaches—a smoker, chaircar and three Pullmans, split the switch and crashed into the freight engine. The first car, telescoping over the massive engine, tore the steam Jacket from the engine, freeing the live steam over the imprisoned Wealth of Fathers Will Be Thrown to Defense of Frank's Slayers CHICAGO, June 2—Faced their own fathers and the father of Robert Franks, 12-year old boy whose life they admitted threw to get thrill, Nathan Leopold Jr., and Richard Loeb, today he cared at the reopened inquiry to the murder and heard them selves remanded into the custody of the sheriff until June 27, when they will again appear at the inquiry to hear themselves charged with the boy's death and to hear proof of his murder. The continuance of the inquiry came a few minutes after the jury had gone into session. States Attorney Crowe asked for the continuance, which was agreed to be defense counsel. Only newspapermen, relative and authorities concerned with the case were allowed in the room at the inquest. CHICAGO, June 2—Whence is the mill of justice thru which the state's attorney's office expects to grind out death sentences for two millionaires' sons started whirring today. While the coroner's jury met to determine the manner in which 13-year-old Robert Franks met his death, the state marshaled the array of evidence on which it will ask murder indictments against Nathan E. Leopold, Jr., and Richard A. Loeb, his confessed slayer "Killers for a thrill," the youths termed themselves in their own admissions. They confess that the kidnapping and slaying of the Franks boy were conceived "like a spirit of adventure." Chief Justice Averly today ordained Leopold and Loeb taken away from State's Attorney Crowe and chief of detectives and placed in the custody of the sheriff, who was ordered to take them to the Franks Inquest and return them to the county jail without bail. This order has the effect of imprisoning the confessed slayers by due process of law and of permitting them to be seen by attorneys retained by their families. Further hearings of petitions for writs of habeas corpus was set for Thursday. Anticipating an attempt to plead insanity, State Attorney Crowe called four allenists for examination of Leopold and Loeb, Drs. William O. Krohn Hugh T. Patrick, Aribald Church and Ludwig Hecktoen, the latter of O.C. Hardabee and Dean B. Churchill, Keen Hat Store trustees, fighting for their liberty in Superior Judge R. Y. Williams' court, where they are charged with obtaining money under false pretenses. The prosecution had completed its case at noon today.

If You Are Handed Rare Coin Call Police, Says C. M. Bryan If anyone hands you a 20-cent silver piece or an 1883 nickel with "E Pluribus Unum" on the bottom instead of the word "cents," call a policeman and have him arrested. This was the appeal today of C. H. Bryan of Center-st, near Placeia-aye, who frightened away a burglar when he returned home at 9 p.m. Sunday. Entrance had been made by cutting the screen to a bedroom window and exit by front door which the burglar left open. "I suspect a Mexican whom I have seen hanging around for two weeks and if businessmen will keep their eyes peeled for these coins, the maudler may be apprehended," said Bryan. "He grabbed 20 or more of the nickels and one 20-cent alien piece... I had been collecting the nickels for 30 years."

REALTY MEN LOSE TEST TAX CASE Fine $10 or 10 days in city jail. This was the penalty handed down today by Judge Charley Kuchel in the test case of city of Anaheim vs. W. B. Allen, local realtor, charged with refusing to pay the annual occupational license tax of $18. Ball of $10 was furnished. Several Realty Board members were in court. Attorney Leonard Evans, representing the defendant, announced to the court that the decision might be appealed, notice of appeal to be filed within 10 days. City Atty, William P. Webb, jr., declared after the hearing that several state supreme court decisions were on record upholding similar ordinances so far as they applied to doctors, dentists and lawyers. The argument was that realtors were under state jurisdiction, the same as other professions and occupations. Insurance dealers also are required to pay the tax, and whether any supreme court decisions would apply to them is not known. The Anaheim Realty Board meets Wednesday when it is expected that decision will be made whether to carry the case to superior court. The board has announced all along that it would carry it to the supreme court if necessary, largely on the ground that its members already were paying a state tax of $10 annually.

MAY LIMIT NUMBER OF PRESCRIPTIONS WASHINGTON, June 2.—The right of the commissioner of internal revenue to limit the number of liquor prescriptions issued by physicians was partially upheld today by the U.S. supreme court. The decision was rendered in the case of S.F.Rutter, prohibition director of California, who lost a suit defending his authority to restrict or limit the amount of liquor that may be purchased and sold by druggists. The case was brought by Waldear Guerick, druggist, on behalf of several California druggists. The supreme court held that questions involving the sale of liquor were vested in the commissioner of internal revenue and that he had the sole right to make decisions in these cases. Other cases are pending upon the direct question of the right of the government to limit the number of liquor prescriptions which mysteries issue. J. S.

CANNERIES MAY INTERVENE WASHINGTON, June 2.—The off C. court of appeals today permitted the Calif. Canneries Co., to HOUSE VOTES TO ADJOURN JUNE 7TH WASHINGTON, June 2.—While Senator Robert M. LaFollette, the insurgent leader, was making plans at one end of the capitol to block the scheduled adjournment of congress this week, the house of representatives voted this afternoon to wind up the session at 7 p.m. next Saturday, June 7. The vote was 221 to 157. The adjournment resolution was offered by Rep. Longworth of Ohio, the majority leader, immediately after Rep. Barkley, Dem. Ky., had withdrawn his bill to abolish the U.S. Railroad Labor Board. The adjournment resolution must pass the senate also before it becomes effective and its fate there was in doubt this afternoon as to the reported intention of Senator LaFollette to bring congress back to Washington after the national conventions. Despite LaFollette's opposition, there remained some hope for adjournment, due to a reported coalition between administration and Democratic leaders. If carried out, it will be the first time in the sixty-eighth congress that these two groups have aligned to oppose a move favored by the insurgents. The new coalition, it was said, was formed between Senator Curtiss, Republican of Kansas, majority whip, and Senator Robinson of Arkansas, Democratic floor leader. If effected the coalition might have sufficient strength to force an adjournment. The result remained doubtful, however, because of the great legislative jam in the Senate and the possibility that LaFollette may yet institute a filibuster against adjournment. If he invokes this ancient congressional weapon, his following would be strong enough to prevent a vote on adjournment until Sunday, when administration lead- Dist.Atty.Keyes Prepares to Call Grand Jury To Sift Matter LOS ANGELES, June 2.—Arrests on charges of criminal negligence loomed today an official investigation of the fire which burned 22 neros in a school death trap at Playa Del Rey Saturday night got under way. If, as charged, the school operators worked without a state license in a building entirely with out fire escapes or emergency exits, where inmates were locked in rooms and tied in their beds, arrests should be made, district attorney Asa Keyes said as he prepared to call the grand jury to sift causes of the great holocaust. At a morgue in Venice, near the scene of the "death trap," arrangements were being made today to bury the 21 unidentified girl victims in a single grave and in a nearby plot will rest the body of Mrs. J.C. Thomas, matron who gave her life in a raid attempt to lead her charges to safety. Guards patrolled the morgue where the blackened bodies stretched in a long row before anguished parents, who clamored for a chance to view the remains. LOS ANGELES, June 2.—Four separate and searching investigations were under way here today to determine the cause of the mysterious fire which Saturday night destroyed the three-story wooden structure housing the Hope Development School for sub-normal girls at Playa Del Rey, claiming 22 lives. Already the investigators have learned that the building was a firetrap, that the children were sleeping behind locked doors and windows and that resources were forced to break into the home as they frantically sought keys to the rooms held by the sleeping matron. One of the burned children investigators learned today had been strapped in her bed. The child had a habit of falling out of her cot, so matrons nightly bound her with a heavy strap. The state board of charities and reforms, it was disclosed today, refused to issue a permit for the operation of the school, owing to the condition of the building which was without fire escapes or exites of any kind.
