Favorable Report on the Direct Tax Bill.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 14-The House commit
tee judiciary has agreed to a favorable report
on the direct tax bill which has passed the Sem
ate. It was amended by the committee SO as
to direct the governors who have the disburse-
ment OF the money to make payments direct to
those entitled to them, and not to attorneys
agents. Several members of the committee
were DESTROYS that the committee should in
clude in the bill provision to refund the cotton
tax. This desire finally took the form of mo-
ton, which was voted down by decided ma
jority but Mr.. Oates will in all probability,
present minority report on the subject.

among the room traders at the present is
something remarkable and the stock market
to-day reached the acme of dullness, for
though there was quiet business done dur

the West, which, however, had all been cir

from the shorts, however, and the tone of the
dealings was firm, though except in st. Paul,
Reading and Missouri Pacific there
was no animation whatever. Missouri
Pacific became the feature, and
