SUFFS PLAN AGAIN TO
TORMENT PRESIDENT
WASHINGTON, June IB.—Another tiuf-
fraKtet iparch on the White Houif is be-
ing plannvd as the result of the indorse*
ment of woman suffrage by the federa-
tion of women's clubs at Chicago.
President Wilson will be asked to re-
ceive a deputation of **uffrago club wom-
en headed by Mrs. Harvey W. Wiley on
June SO.
The suffrage leaders say they intend to
ask the president to use his influence for
a favorable report on the suffrage
amendment irom the house rules commit-
tee.
OF INTERESTS UPON
confronted with a period of uncertainty
which would accompany delay.
. One of the circular letters, which camo
into pos*c8Hicn of the white house was
circulated by the Simmons Hardware
company of St. Louis. E. C. Simmons,
the head of the company had been select-
ed for a member of the.federal reserve
board and his nomination was to have
gone to the senate today. This morning
it wrifl announced at the *hlte house that
Mr. Simmons had declined the place and
that Chas. A. Hamlin of Boston now an
assistant secretary of the treasury would
be nominated in his plac. White House
officials emphatically denied that the cir-
cular letter sent out by the 8immons
company had any connection with th*
declination of Mr. Simmons.
Another circular letter made public, re-
ported to have been sent out by the Pic-
torial Review company of New York and
*as signed by W. P. Annelt as president.
It was dated May 1 and enclosed a draft
o fa letter, "which embraces tlje view of
a majority of the thinking business people
of our section of the country, and which
should be addressed to the president of
the United States, the congress and mem-
bers of tKe interstate commerce commis-
sion respectively.
The letter concluded:
"If you prefer to use copies of the en-
closed letter, we will mail you as many
as you can conveniently use. It will be
more effective, however, if you write
them on your own letterheads."
The form letter attached was an appeal
for postponement of trust legislation and
a five percent freight rate increase for
the railroads.
A copy of a night lettergram containing
the contents of the form letter In con-
densed terms was attached.
Not since President Wilson made his
charge of "an insidious" lobby In Wash-
ington to influence tariff legislation has
there been a sensation ot such sort In of-
ficial circles. News of what the presi-
dent had said and of the giving out of the
circular lett rs ppread quickly to the cap-
itol, where it became the subject of ani-
mated discussion In both house* of con-
gress.
The letter purporting to have been sent
out by the Simmons company was dated

the salaries received by each. Shortly
after It became known that the secretary
was collecting this information, there
were 30 revised income returns filed In
one Internal revenue office alone. But the
secretary is satisfied large numbers still
alone will enable the convention to con-
clude its business In the three days al-
lotted to the work. Ho said he would
not order the meeting adjourned until
every bit of business on hand had been
attended to and urged that everybody
"say as much as poslsble In as little time
as possib'e."
Secretary E. L. Fulkerson submlcted
a report which showed that the associa-
tion has more than doubled Its member-
ship In the last year, having now above
100 water superintendents, mayors and
cKy officials enrolled. The secretary's
calling of the roll disclosed that every
officer of the association w&b In Tulsa
for (he first session of the meeting save,
two, both of whom are expected here by
Tuesday.
An address by Charles Schultz, city
engineer of Muskogee, on "Modern Ma-
chinery for Waterworks," closed the
morning session. The speaker asserted
that he has found through only casual
observation that much of the machinery
used in waterworks stations In this sec-
tion ' of the country is Inferior quality
and out-of-date. He advocated the ap-
pointment of a state hydraulic engineer,
to work in conjunction with the state
insurance commissioner, saying that by
such an arrangement municipalities could
get the most expert advice at a minimum
cost. Fire Insurance rates throughout
Oklahoma would be materially lowered,
in the opinion of Mr. Schult, should this
be done.

line of entertainment will be provided for
them this afternoon and tonight. At 4:39
o'clock a sufficient number of automobiles

ployed for the investigation of Income tax
returns will he used to discover the facts.
It may take the treasury department
months, or even years, to catch up with
some of the tax dodgers, but the officials
say the chase will be relentless. The
records of all banks and business concerns
are open to the department and its agents
have many secret sources of information.
The penalty for making,,* fraudulent re-
turn is Imprisonment for not more than
one year, or a fine not exceeding $1,000,
or both, with the costs of prosecution.
Persons subject to the tax who fall to
make any report may be fined from $20
to $1,000. The penalty for,failure to pay
the assessments upon returns before July
1, will be five per cent plus an additional
five per cent for every month of delay.

cided Saturday to call the games for the present series at 3:30. There

Insistent and continued yelps and knocks that have emanated from the
