Members oil the Ways and Means Commit
tee Tangled Up Over the Income Tax.
WASHINGTON, Jan. IL. The democratic
members of the ways and means committee
considered the internal revenue bill today.
The meeting was a spirited one, many un-
expected motions being made, so that at one
time the friends of income tax feared they
were defeated. At the outset of the meet
ing Mr.. Tarsney moved that the question as
to whether the internal revenue features
were to be reported as independent bills be
referred to a democratic caucus.
This brought on an animated discussion.
When the vote was taken the Tarsney mo-
tion prevailed by u vote OF 6 to5.
MIR. Byuum furnished the surprise of the
meeting by moving to reconsider the entire
revenue bill as practically agreed on at q
meeting some time ago. This motion also
prevailed by IL vote of i to ). Mr.. Bynum
voted with the opponents of an income tax.
The affirmative vote was cast by Messrs.
Wilson, Breckenridge, BNnum, Cochran,
Stevens and montgomery; the negative vote
by MesSrS, McMillin, Bryan, Whiting, Tars-
ney and Turner.
A question then arose as to where this
left the bill whether the Tarsney resolution
sent the whole question to Il caucus, or
whether the Bynum resolution left anything
to submit to a caucus.
After some discussion as to the status q
vote was again taken on the other internal
revenue features, and they were agreed to
as previously decided upon. The democrats
who are opposing the income tax
proposition, led by Wilson, then forced
"A direct vote upon the question of submit
ting all the internal revenue features
to the house as Il separate measure. A
motion to SO report the internal revenue bill
was agreed to by a vote of 6 to 3, Mr.. Bynum
voting in the affirmative. The question of a
caucus was still in doubt, owing to the
various motions which had interviewed since
the Tarsney proposition mad first carried,
but it was finally agreed, informally, that il
n caucus to consider the income tax should
be called by any members outsiue of the
ways and means committee and the caucus
sentiment on the vote should be for the in
corporation of the internal revenue features
as part of the Wilson bill, any member of
the committee so disposed could make the
motion on the floor of the house to SO include

A young married woman, living in the
East End, had n peculiar dream the
other evening, says the Cleveland Plain
Dealer. She dreamed that she was down
town on Euclid avenue with her baby
and was preparing to board a car to go
homo. The step of the new Euclid ave
nue. motor was rather high and she re-
quested n gentleman to hold her baby
while she boarded the car. He con
scented, but before he could return the
infant to the arms OF its mother the car
started and left without the child. The
grief of the young woman was intense
and so troubled was her mind that she
awoke. Her relief at finding il all a
dream was so great that she decided to
buy "a book on dreams and learn what it
all signitied.
Yesterday she called at a down town
book store and related her dream to the
clerk, who CHANGED to be an |acquaint-
ance. She purchased the book and
turned to the index, whore she found
that such Il dream as she experienced
foretola that the dreamer would receive
twice as much as she had lost.
What would | get" she said to the
clerk, innocently, that would be twice
as much to me as my baby?n
Twin ~ said the clurk ~lacOnically,
and she has not spoken to him since,
