tax on State banks as o as a vote In

or the seventeen members of the Com

Representative Johnson, of Ohio, who
was supposed - ne doubtful, says that
he Is against the repeal OF the 10 per
cent. tax. but will report 1t favorably
from the Committee In order to get 1t be-
fore the House.
Mr.. Johnson believes that because there
was no mention of the bill in the Presi-
dents message 1t has lost considerable
support. Several members who were for
repeal before the message have expressed
themselves since as being Indifferent or
believing 1t would not be wise to pass

Messrs Gallagher and Mealey were APP

a little before II o'clock some citizens
appeared before the court and complained
that Market street bridge is closed for

The Levy Court Commissioners walked
down TO the bridge Tuesday to invos-
tigate matters.
The mechanism of the bridge is frozen
stiff.
l5rdgctender Common says the bridge
wheels are banked up and cl0gged with
ice. making it impossible to turn the
bridge. The engine is l5horse power.
But the question is as to whether any
undue effort may not damage the ma
chincry.
The commissioners saw no other way TO
put the bridge into position again except
by tugs or else by employing bigger Jor-
dan who would use ropes at either side.
There is a conflict of opinion us to

The general opinion is that it would be

Arrest of Royalist Leaders in France.
PARIS Jan. IL The government will soon
strike blow. 1t is reported on excellent
authority that there is now ample evil
dence of royallst conspiracy, and that
arrests will be made at an early date.
The conspiracy has been Matched in Lon
don and Madrid and the Count of Paris,
instead of having been especially close in
his expenditures of late for the Royalist
cause has been unusually lavish. He is
not managing any details but his leading
representatives are more active than ever.
Royalist influences and funds have had
much to do with the recent activity in
revolutionary circles in Paris, and it is re-
ported that much Of the applause of the
extremist speakers at the Tivoli Hall was
furnished by paid Itoyalist claquers. The
Royalist plan appears to be To overthrow
the republic by some means. no matter
what the means are, and to foment and
promote disorder, in the hope that the
French people will return to the Count of
Paris or the Duke of Orleans.
