He Thinks the Bill VIII Pass the
House In July.
WASHINGTON, June 2z-Chairman Mills
said to-day that he thonght the house would
pass the Mills bill the latter part of next
month; substantially, as the majority of the
ways and means committee desire it. Messrs.
Randall, Snowden and Foran will probably
be the only democrats voting against it.
Mr.. Fitch of New York will probably be the
only republican voting for it. The indorse-
ment of Mr.. Kelly's extreme protection
position by the Chicago convention has en-
couraged him to contend more zealously
than ever for the internal tax repeal. This
troubles the other republicans, who do not
want to put Kelly IS proposition over against
the Mills bill, but, just at the present, Mr.
Kelley seems to be the leader Of his side
on the tariff question. The republicans of
the senate will now proceed to complete the
internal revenue bill, which they propose
to su bstitute for the Mills bill, when it gets
over to the senate. 1t will be modified upon
the principles laid down in the taxation
plank of the Chicago platform. Their idea
now is to prevent any legislation reducing
taxation until the next session of congress.
If Harrison should be elected they would
prevent any legislation on that subject

Yesterday Frank HARRISON got out writ
of hebeas corpus. upon which Webb was
carried before Ordinary Calhoun to-day.
The point was made in arguing the case
that the law was unconstitutional, inasmuch
as the city charter declared that for misde-
meanors the recorder could either
fine or imprison at his discretion, whereas
now the ordinance directed him to impose
imprisonment. The ordinary, after hearing
the argument by Mr. Haralson and q. y.
Thomas for the prisoner, ana Attorney
Pendleton for the city, said that he was In
