TUE TAX on NATIONAL BANKS.

A compilation of the returns in the
Office of the Comptroller ofthe Currency
shows that the taxes paid by National
banks to the United States amount to
2 $40 per cent upon their capital; 70
the several States in which they are To-
Gated to 2 lilo per cent, while their ex-
penses, such as rents, salaries, &C.,
amount to Clio per cent. upon their
capital, so that they have to make eight
per cent. on their capital to pay taxes
and expenses, before they can realize
any profits with which to pay dividends.

WASHINGTON, March %
NEUTRALITY IN CUBAN AFFAIRS.

NEUTRALITY IN CUBAN AFFAIRS.
The House Foreign Affairs committee
this morning did all it could on the
Cuban question. 1t instructed the
chairman to report bill by which the
President is authorized and instructed
to declare and maintain strictly i'm
partial neutrality on the part OF the
Government of the United States in the
contest now existing between the PEG.
pie of Cuba and the Government OF
Spain. The neutrality act of 1918 is to
be enforced impartially against both
parties in this contest. The great strug-
gle in the committee was on this last
clause, General Banks and his friends
wanting to declare the old law null and
void in so far as it applied to Spain and
Cuba. He and they were defeated in
this effort by one majority, and thus
the chief feature of the bill was killed.
THE SAN DOMINGO TREATY.
There is getting to be a good deal of
feeling here about the San Domingo
treaty, and the discussion of tomorrow,
in secret session of the Senate, will
probably be somewhat warm. The
President has twice visited the Capitol
to talk with Senators about its ratifica-
ton, and yesterday he invited consid-
cradle number of them to call on him
at the White House. A half dozen
waited on him last evening, several
went this morning, and quite party is
there tonight. He presses ratification
vigorously, and has undoubtedly won
several gentlemen to his side. In some
quarters there is severe condemnation
of what is called his lobbying. 1t is
not likely that the consideration of the
treaty can be finished tomorrow, but II
a vote is then reached it will probably
be defeated. Some Senators want pest
ponment of action till commissioners
can be sent down to make an investiga-
tion. The time expires Tuesday of next
weak

FINANCIAL QUESTIONS

Make slow progress, both in the Ways
and Means and Banking and Currency
committees. The last named meant to
do something to-day under the Tough
ridge instructions, but did not get a
quorum together for business. The
Ways and Means are ut work on the
Funding bill, and will report it as soon
as printed, whatever other matters are
before the House. The members are not
at all communicative as to their DELHI
erations, but reports on good authority
are that they will probably mako some
important changes in the bill as itcomes
from tho Senate They talk of declar.
ing that there shall be but one class of
bonds and one rate of interest.

minister to remain during the night, and
he accepted the invitation. They walked
together for some time in the manse gar

stranger entered the manse the minister
