Every anarchist in the country with nerve will follow this lead. 1 am ready to disclose my Identity and keep the secret of this warfare and Its methods, provided you pay me $45,000 and I have your pledge that I go free. If you break your pledge at this stage you will only get me at the most for blackmail and threatening letters. I take my pun ishment and do my worst when I go free, and no one can control my tongue or pen." Eby sets forth further that he has tried for 30 years to earn an hon est living, but finds that "the cor poration thieves get all and the rest of mankind must starve or stand in." In this letter Eby also specified that he would meet no one except the president or some high official of the road.

MILLION DOLLAR BILL IS PASSED BY ROUSE Deficiency Act Carries $666,000 More Than Reported. CUSTOMS COURT IS DELAYED. Conferences Fall To Fix Salaries Of New Judges And Matter Goes Over t'nlll December Macon Tries To Ifc-Iay Proceedings, But A Rule Defeats Him Further At tack On Th? Automobile Section Made By Garrett. Washington, D. C. (Special). Carrying an aggregate appropriation ot $1,100,000, or $666,000 more than as originally reported, the con ference report on the Urgent De ficiency Appropriation Bill wa adopt ed by the House. Bitter opposition was directed against the provisions of the bill re specting the establishment of a cus toms court and providing for the purchase of automobiles for the Vice President and the Speaker, but all attempts to Bend the report back to the conferees for amendment were defeated. The bill as passed made no provision for the navment of sal aries of Judges and officers of the court. When the House met the Inten tion was to have the conference re port on the Deficiency Bill receive Immediate consideration, but It was frustrated by Mr. Macon (Ark.) Still occuylng the role of objector, Mr. Macon refused unanimous consent to a motion by Mr. Payne that the rule requiring conference reports to be printed in the Record should be sus pended In the Interest of the Defi ciency Bill. All appeals to the Ar kansas member to consen: were in vain. Incensed at this turn of affairs, Mr. Hughes (W. Va.) declared that the business of the House should not be delayed "simply to humor some whim of Mr. Macon's." "I don't appreciate any such gratuity as that," said Mr. Macon, more obdur ate than ever. But the Republican leaders were not thr.s to be defeated In their pro gram of putting the Deficiency Bill through, and after being In session seven minutes mustered up enough votes to force a recess for half an hour in order that the Committee on Rules might bring in a resolution covering the case. When the 30 minutes were up Mr. Dalzell (Pa.) promptly was recog nized to offer a rule which would render the Payne motion effective. Mr. Macon could not bring himself to see the necessity for the rule. He remarked that it would have heon time enough to ask unanimous con sent when the conference report was presented. Each case, he argued, should stand on its own bottom, "Just the same as a tub does." The rule, however, vas put through with a whoop, the Democrats gen erally refusing to support the Ar kansas member. The conference re port on the Urgent Deficiency Bill then was presented by Chairman Tawney and immediately taken up. The report appropriates $25,000 to pay expenses of the proposed cus toms court, but does not provide for the organization of the court. It also makeB the follow! j appropriations: One hundred thousand dollars to the Department of State for foreign trade and treaty relations; $100,000 for collecting the corporation tax: $10,000 to relieve the suffering and destitution among the Indians of the Lapolnte Agency, Wisconsin; $12,000 for automobiles for the Vice Presi dent and Speaker; $24,000 for the Alaska-Yukon-Paclflc Exposition.
