THE "WEEKLY TELEGRAPH: JANUARY 17, 1895. Tbo Income Tax Brought on a Lively Bout Between the Maryland aud New York Senator?. EiCB OF TUESI BL \MED THE OTHER Sir.

Gorman With ll»e Imper fections of the Tariff Bill* ^V'a.^ilneton, Jan. 14.—After the rou tine jnorninu ibueiness, the urgent de- ilcienoy bill was takon up. the ques> L ;,e iunendmenit offered by him to au thorize the United States courts to iv ar and determine questions as to tihe 0 , n stUutlonality and validity of the iiK’irme ‘tax. ^enatAr Stewart took the ji, kV and concluded ills speech begun Saturday—* free silver speech. x Senator Gorman next addressed the senate. The pending proposition wa8, he said. a simple and plain one. An appropriation 'bill was before the sen- ute j>r>vidlns for deficiencies, among them t»» enable rhe secretary of the treasury to carry out the law for the collection of an income 'tax. ••Out what the senator from New York desires," Mr. Gorman continued, • is a provision, separate and distinct— an exception In this cane—a provision that would •mable any tax-<uayor to suspend lll<J inic< >mo tax so as by in junction to reverse the rule, and to .pre vent the money coming Into the treae- until every question that migirt be raised by wary unwilling tax-payer should bo decided fby the supreme court : ±2 United Rt****."

TARIFF RBVilSiON. • There never was a more hazardous iertuking than that of revising the lit law at the lime the Democratic rty undertook it. The bill was a • iipromlse measure; and no bill could iv»* nassed the senate except by a finis** to \% hlch every Democratic senate changed In the line of cloture, an ’l a t Mr. Gorman with having 5gp°f®« such a change, which would, eald, "have enabled! us to pro vide the necessary revenue for the *w ernment/' continued, "tliat It Is U..W,/ **i*i*v>aiaiiu»c fur u» iu iegusaaie uuless these rules are changed," and oft referred contemptuously to "the ex hibition much the senator from Mary land today, turning round to his Re publican friends and appealing to them In a piteous manner to come and save this side of the chamber." (Laughter in the galleries.) "I do not," Mr. HKil said, “Join in any sucii appeal. I would appeal rath er to our own friends here—if we are in the majority. The appeal of the sen ator will ibe fra vain. Our friends on the other side opposed* Uhls tariff re form •bill, and they do not propose to help us out of our difficulties. That is natural. The patriotic appeal which the senator made to them will not find any response on that side of -the chamber." THE RECENT CAUCUS.

(Laughter.) "The finance committee." Mr. Pugh implied, "did not consider it its duty to act on that subject until it is disposed of by the ihouec. After action by the house, I take it for granted that a com mittee of this body will consider it aud bring it 'before the senate. I understand that the finance committee is now pon dering"—- "Pondering is good," Mr. Hill inter rupted with a sneer. "Pondering with great care.” Mr. Pugh continued with quiet disregard of Mr. Hill’s remark, "and with a sense of the responsibility which the senator him*.*'if recognizes, liecause the subject is ful’ of eoinplications and difficulties. No party has ever had tihe responsibili ty which U now resting on the Demo cratic party, and no party has ever been able to deal with it without the trouble which' now surrounds us." in the further course at his speech Mr. Hill said: "I do not propose today, or In. the Immediate future, to submit a financial liupectcr Anderson Searched the Ware house of Borden & Co. at Fernandina.

But unless we have the rules amended so e.s to be able t i pass our legislation it is (practically use less to present any measure." Mr. Gorman made another short speech in reply to Mr. Hill, denying that he had made any "piteous apnea.' to t'he Republican side of the chamber, and averting that no change of the rules was necessary. There never had been, he isald. a measure mending In the senate looking to ameliorating the condition of the party, or to advanc ing thelf Interest and honor, at home or abroad, which had not been acted upon under the existing rultu ini iv ^promise to w hich every Democratic* t *-i:itor, except the senator from New York (Mr. 11:11), agreed. As a whole, land as it «tan<U* today, the tariff law u Aw- uct o»f 'the De-mu ratlc party; and it is tae best tarilf law that has been on the senate book fur forty years. The senator from New York was not u -par ity to that conipromtae.

Appealing directly to Republican sen- it >iw, Mr. Gorman said: "You come Into power on the fourth ef March next, under better conditions tun we dUl on tile fourth of Malvh .3.

At the beginning of the morning hour Mr. Hatch called up the bill making oho- margarine subject to the laws of the state or territory Into which »t is Im ported, and demanded tho previous Ques tion on it. Mr. Bynum moved that recess b*? taken until 1:30 o’clock. This urns a lMSUstei and It was successful. No quorum was shown and the point was raised. J*y the time a quorum was secured :he morning hour had expired. Mr. Hatci afkfi unanimous consent to mve the house consider the oleomargorlao bill, but ob jection was mode and the bill iort Us favored place without having reached a vote on Its merits. An order from tho committee on rules will probably he nec essary for the further consideration of tho bill. Objection was made to grant ing unanimous consent, asked by Mr. Hatch, to consider the pure food bill. Mr. Catching* present-si from the loro- initteo on rules a resolution providing that the rest of the .’ay be given up »o business from the committee on Judiciary. Objection was made to this by Mr. Cobb (Democrat) of Alabama, who claim-d that tho rules gave up tho day to the committee on the district of Columbia. It was finally agreed that next lllday be set apart for District business and the resolution giving today to judiciary business was carried. Chairman Culoer- son called up the senate bill "to provide for tho re-dlstrlcting of the Indian Ter- rltory for judfclul purpos***. for sn ad ditional judge and for more United States commissioners and to provide tho Juris diction and authority of such Judges and commissioners." It took the committee of the whole al most the remainder of tho lay and was finally passed with certain amendments, recommended by the commlct**e. The bill to make an additional judfdal district in Kentucky wns taken up. but no conclusion had been reached when the house, at 5:15, adjourned. SENATE EXECUTIVE BESSON. Washington.

Atlanta, Jan. 14. — (Special.)— Several months ago the postoffice department at Washington pounced down upon the “Equitable Loan and Security Company of Atlanta," and another similar con cerns, and doclarlng them frauds, pran.b- Ited them the use of the malls, Tho nameB of Governor Northern State Treasurer Hardeman and •other prominent people appeared as officers and directors of the companies, and tho ctlgma of "fraud"'placed upon them by die govern ment, which also threatened criminal prosecution, created a big sensation. Governor Northern Col. Hardeman and others of the more Influential ones who had been Induce.! to allow the use ol their names by the real managers of the concern, quickly withdrew when they found (hat the business came In r on met with Uncle Barn's Ideas of legitimacy, and are still oat of them. But tt appears that tho government' embargo on the conccm'3 business has not had the effect of killing It, a'thimnh at tho time the government shook It was believed that the concern, which Is similar In operation to many others over the country, which arc being both civilly and crlmlnully prosecuted by th government, would lay exceedingly low. Today the Telegraph correspondent came Into possession of an Ingenious cir cular which Is being sent out by tho ■'Equitable.'' It Is after the order of the familiar 1'aul Conrad Gulf Coast Ice com pany Lottery advertisement, and when the-postoftlce people catch on to It, which will probably be when they see this in the Telegraph, It Is More than llke'y that there will be more trouble.
