MIR. TAYLoE;s TAX BILL


AUSTIN, March l4.-[Special MIR.
Taylor's bill relative to settlement by
tax collectors passed this morning, sys-
tematizes the settlement by requiring
uniformity in the time for collecting
and in the action Of the commissioners
court and tho prompt settlement by the
LIST of May OF collectors. 1t will also
enable teachers OF public schools to be
paid promptly, instead of selling their
claims at discount, which many of
them are now doing. The changes
made are undoubtedly beneficial, and
Senator Taylor thinks they will be best
for all classes of tax payers, as we'll as
increase largely the amount of taxes
collected, AMI their prompt payment
will relieve the teachers and the general
revenue.
MORE DlsGRACEFUL SCENES.
On Wednesday night a disgraceful
scene occurred i'll tho senate of Texas,
which, at the request of members, and
out of Difference to that body, the press
reporters RETAINED from mentioning,
hoping that in the future, better
order would be observed and
that that the quiet, -, dignity, g., d. de- D
so honorable in high law-making
body, would prevail. In this they
erred. as a prompt rebuEe by the press
might have instilled cautiousness and
prevented scene which occurred to-
day, and which, in connection with that
of Monday, might well mar forever the
history of legislation in this state:
The bill abolishing the office OF insur-
ance commissioner was being dis
cussed. Mr.. Houston Cot Bexar) made
an elaborate and torcible argument in
favor of its retention.
Mr.. Davis replied in his characteristic
style and took occasion, as he often
does, to ridicule. He compared the SEN
ator from Bexar to a "strutting turkey
gobbler."
At the conclusion of his speech Mr..
Houston rose to question OF privilege,
and stated that in the debates criticisms
were often INDUCED in, but never before
had the personal appearance of any
member been dragged in until that
"little yellow, sallOw-iaced mummy and
blackguard from Cooke saw fit to allude
to him, and that he was ready TO settle
the matter outside of the chamber, or
either within or outside of the state, as
the senator might select"
Confusion followed, amid which the
president called the senator to order,
but he refused to sit down.
Mr.. Davis insisted on his proceed ing.
The president falling to restore order
instructed the sergeant. at-arms TO ar
rest the two senators, but before the ser
succeeded, comparative
Iuiet. was re stored, but intense excite
ment prevailed in the Hobbies.
Mr.. Davis arose in a personal eXpla-
nation and said, "that any senator who
would tako ADVANTAGE of his. position on
he floor Of bhe senate to insult men,
Ter, was a deliberate coward, poltroon
nd pusilaninsous blackguard; and that |

rom the floor OF the senate into the

Mr.. Davis continued his remarks,sa
