The sub-committee or Ways and
means of internal revenue, consisting
of Messrs. McMillan, Bynum, Mont
gomery, heard Hopkins and Payne, Monday,
Thomas C. Sherman, of New
York, on tho subject of an income tax.
He would not have a tax on wages,sal
ar > es or but the profits arising from busi
ness, on the revenues from iuvest
i ed wealth, rents, railroads, telegraph
j and telephone and other corporations.
Senator Morgan, on Monday, re
introduced his bill of last session, pro

Pacific and Central Pacific railroad
companies. The bill increases the di
rectory of tho two roads to fifteen
members each, five of whom are to be

would require a roll call on every

legislatures of many states. This

pass at this session, but lie hopes that
it may he the ground work of some
substantial reform in legislation.
Voorliee# Stnnib Finn.
'We arc going to pass that bill if it
| takes from now till the end of next
winter and all through the following
said senator Voorhees in an
interview Tuesday. “It is not so much
a question of repeal now as whether a
majority in the senate shall rule or
the minority have that privilege. “Mr.
^ oorhee- holds that under the. rules
" r tIl( ‘ e, ’n»te the vice president has not
theanthority to count a quorum, but Mr.
Hill thinks that that official can force
action so as to tiring the debate to a
close and a vote on the amendments
and the bill itself. Meanwhile a move
ment towards a compromise appears to
be halting. Radical difference be
tween democrats and the opposition
of the administration to the long post
ponement of tho date on which the
repeal law is to go into efUct have
proved a serious check. Unless dras
tic measures can be taken to force a
vote it is difficult to tell when the
situation will change.
('allin# on tho President*
Several unconditional repeal senators
called upon the president Saturday
morning and expressed the opinion
that a compromise could be had. They
wanted to know if he had ever given it
out that he would be willing to agree
to a compromise. He replied, as he
has always replied to the former qaes
tions of this character, that he stood
upon his message. In that he advised
unconditional repeal, and he still de
sired it. The senators who are op
posed to unconditional repeal still con
trul the situation, 'they can control
it for Weeks and months. It is not
probable that the two factions of the
senate will be able to meet upon neut ral
.round for several days to come. The
night sessions have led to too much
bad feelings for the senators to recover wider
quickly. Saturday they were
apart than they have been during the
past week.
