S l9I, an act to equalize taxation. Pending the
question, Shall the bill be read the third time2
Senator Start proposed an amendment contain
ing the substance OF s. 81, which was before in
,roduced by Senator Start and referred to com
ON grand list Senator Start explained that the
purpose OF the amendment was 10 avoid double
taxation. Sec. of the amendment provides
that all notes, debts, contracts and bonds that
are secured by mortgage or otherwise, upon real
estate, SHALL for the purpose OF taxation, be con-
sidered an interest In real estate. Sec pro
vides In substance that the interest OF the mort
gagor and MORTGAGE of real estate shall be set to
each respectively In the list OF the town where
the incumbered real estate Is situated.
Senator DwINELL, for the grand list commit
tee detailed the difficulties In the way OF prac-
tical operation OF theproposed amendment
Senator GLEED thought the amendment would
not help the mortgagors any, for, directly or in
directly, the borrower would have to pay the tax
and much property would escape from being
placed In the list
Senator Stafford opposed the amendment
Farmers were not the greatest sufferers from a
defective system Of taxation, but the poll tax
payers, and the amendment would tend TO in
crease the burden upon them.
There was further discussion by Senators Blod-
gett and Start
Senator DWlNELL explained at length the
changes In the law contemplated by the bill
Senator FULLER said the result OF the amend
ment would be simply this. The money-ender
would make the borrower pay the taxes on the
real estate else increase the interest that the
borrower would have to pay, lie therefore OPP
posed the amendment Senator Brown said that
the capitalists would always take care OF them
selves, but the poor should receive the consider
alton OF the legislature. II the amendment
should prevail the mortgagors would certainly
have to pay the tax, either directly or IN the way
Of extra interest, aud the measure would result In
a al isastrous collision between capital and labor.
Senator START replied that he was In favor
OF the bill with or without the amendment,
but he proposed the amendment In the interests
OF the mortgagor and he thought the results an
ticpated by the senators would not follow the en-
actment Of the proposed measure.

The Star Service.

WASHINGTON, Feb. %. -- Blackburn
raised the point against the star service
bill that il did not itenlze nor give the
aggregate Of the appropriation, as required
by the rules. The committee refused TO
sustain the point. Blount explained the
bill and severely denounced the Postmas'
ter General and his second assistant for
going beyond the appropriation and conf
peliiug Congress to endorse him or Grip
pie the service. He hoped If this policy
obtained, the House, regardless OF party,
would drive such miserable sophists out OF
place.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.-The discussion
In the House over tue star route deficiency,
was chiefly notable for the vigorous speech
by Gen. Hawley. Great interest Is mani-
tested in the discussion, and although there
| is 40 doubt the deficiency bill reported Will
be passed there is au evident disposition to
have settlement with Brady aftarward,
even IL it is necessary to 60 to The extreme
of impeachment.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.-The House be-
ing in a committee of the whole on the
star deti,iency bill, Page opposed tho bill
as striking at 1J7 of tbs great lines Of tht
star service in the west. aud a a represen
tatiye OF the people in that section, h
protested against 1t. No member OF tht
appropriation committee who had spoken
yesterday had led any member OF the Hons'
to believe that there had been any trant
committed in putting on extra service.

Seuelching Kearney.

SAN Francisco, Feb. 27.-ro-day the
seat Of war has been removed from tins
city to the Assembly chamber, Sacramento,
where il has assumed a serio-comic aspect.
Since his return from the East, Dents
Kearpey has been making himself very
oficious about the Legislature, log rolling,
ETC., inside of the bar. THIS led 10 mo-
ton yesterday, evidently aimed at hearney'
to exclude all but privileged persons from
the floor of the assembly. After the ad-
iuurnment, Kearney approached Adams, oil
Sonoma, in his seat and used threatening
language towards him on account OF MS
action on the motion.
To-day Tyler, of Alameda. offered a
resolution to exclude Kearney from the
Assembly chamber and from all galleries,
Hobbies. halls, committee rooms, ETC., under
the control Of the Assembly. Referred 90
a special committee, who, after hearing the
evidence, decided to report that kearney
had been guilty of the attempt to intimI-
date Adams. Besides this there was a
very lively passage in the Assembly to-day
over another matter. 4 few days ago May
bell, a workingman member, in the AS
sembly from San Francisco, telegraphed tc
Kearney: :" We hear you are erecting
pallows on the Sand Lots. There is more
need of erecting gallows in Sacramento
Come up MISUNDERSTANDING some hemp
Tho telegram found its way into some d
the papers to-day.
A resolution was introduced to inquire
into the matter, in the course of which
very lively discussion ensued; daring which
Brauuhart, workingman of San Fran
cisco, fatty refused to obey the order
the Speaker, to sit down, and was brouGh
to the bar of the House aud suspende
for three days. Subsequently when tn
Kearney question came up, Braunhart al
peared on the floor and demanded the righ
vote, and ths speaker ordered him remove
rs an intruder.

Territorial Supreme Courts.

The following memorial from the Legis-
lative Assembly Of Wyoming has been sub
United to Congress and referred to the
Judiciary Committee:
Your memorialsts, the Legislative as
sembly of the Territory Of Wyoming, would
most respectfully call the attention of Con-
gress to the present imperfect system OF
determining cases on appeal from the dis
trict courts of the Territory. Our Supreme
courts are composed OF the three district
judges of the Territory; and in the event
of an appeal the judge from whose decision
the appeal is taken is permitted and re-
qured 10 sit as a member of tho appellate
court en- the same case. Should the other
two judges disagree the decision rendered
below will bs affirmed unless the judge
from whom the appeal was taken should
overruIe his own decision. which seldom
occurs, thus practically depriviug the APP
pellanJ from a fair and impartial hearing 10
| the supreme court.
| Your memorialists wonld therefore most
respectfully pray of your honorable body
| to provide for the orgsuiz alton OF an APP
| pellate court upon some different basis.
and would most respectfully suggest thai
| our supreme court might be- composed OF
United States circns judges having juris
diction OF all cases appealed from the dis
trict courts Of all the Territories, to hole
their sessions A. some central locality to he
designated by Congress or the chief justices
of the various Territories, or all the Justices
/ of the Territories might compose til,
| supreme court, or Congress might devils
some better method than any herein aug
gested to obviats the diff ,ulty herein men
toned, and as in duty bound your me,aori
alists viii ever pray.

statement of gossiping correspondent ID
Washington. upon which IL casts discredit /
editoriaily, Tia Jay Gould is Blaine's m
fiiential adviser and is partly managing ms |

emf thinks railroad development would be
the principal feature OF Blaine's adm MIS-
tration if elected.
A Times editorial says: A Democratic
newspaper at Washington states that the
Illinois delegation in the Cincinnati conven-
ton will present the name of VIM. X. Nor
rison for the Presidential npmin t:ioa. HIS

fiction from Gramercy Park has led to the
formation OF rev syndicate which is Il
