OPPOSING INCOME TAX.
It win Form No Part Of the vii
son Tariff Bill.
TO BEMADE A sEPARATEMEAsuRE

Tho Ways and Means committss Of tho
House, BY Vote Of six 60 rive. Re-
considers the Action OF the sub-com-
mittss.
WAsHNaToS, Jan. 1s.-The advocates
OF an income tax and of the Internal reve-
nue. feature OF the tariff suffered an I'M
expected reverse at the meeting Of the
Democratic members Of the ways and
creams committee. Instead Of endorsing
thu bill as drawn by the subcommittee,
II was voted by six to Ave to reconsider
the entire determination reached at the
treasury Department. some time ago.
During the discussion before the ways
and means committee Representatives
Cochran and Stevens stated that they
would vote against the tariff bill II the in
come tax was attached as an amendment.
They did not make this as threat, but
as indicating their position-that they re-
gard 1t their first duty to defeat the in
come tax In whatever form 1t IL presented
to the house
Friends OF the income tax have now
turned their attention from the ways and
means committee, and are depending on
house caucus. No step toward calling
q caucus has yet been taken, but there Ii
no doubt such a step will be taken within
day or 20. The point has been made that
the consideration of the tariff bill is a
special order day and evening 30 that the
use of the house could not be had for q
caucus, but Representative Whiting says
that the caucus could be held in the house
from 10 to II In the morning, or else In
some other place.
One Of the members of the ways and
means committee favorable to the in
come tax says that the internal revenue
bill will be introduced before next Tues
day as a separate measure. The caucus
will then be asked to indorse the plan Of
offering the internal revenue bill as an
amendment. He thinks the caucus will
approve this action. in which case Will
son, Bynum and others who want the
bills to be considered separately will be
willing to abide by the caucus action and
vote for them together.
