/ Senator McCandless said that the re-
/ port was complete surrender OF the
+ Senate TO the House. The conference
committee asked the Senate to accept
a report that was entirely against the
/ principles of the Senate. He moved to
| non-concur in the report.
Minister Damon said the items were
of such small Importance that il hard

Senator Waterhouse said the uues-

by the committee. The Senate had

ternal tax bill. This was a COMPROMISED
Senator Brown said he didn't like
the report in all features, but the mat
ters didn't amount to enough to send
the report back to the committee.
Senator McCandless withdrew his

cur was then carried, which passes the

been accepted.
A report from the Executive on the

CANOvAs GIVES OPINION.

He Thinks Insurgents are Playing a
Losing Game.
NEW YORK, May 21-A cable to the
World from Madrid says: In an inter
view Premier Canovas spoke of the
efforts Of the American Government to
get from the inferior courts and United
States Supreme Court that well-defined
fixed Jurisprudence in regard to the fill
clustering expeditions and cases still
sub judice.
The Prime Minister added: 'The ap-
pointment of General Fitzhugh Lee to
be COnsul-General at Havana causes no
concern or apprehension, as the Span
isl Minister at Washington continues
to report the excellent disposition OF
the Executive. The debate in the
American and Spanish congresses will
not materially affect the relations of
the two countries. We understand that
the Executive in America cannot in
terfere with the freedom of speech of
the orators, though in Spain we have
the advantage that our Ministers pres
ent in the COrteS can always point out
that the Government and the majority
of the nation are not responsible for
the utterances of the opposition mem
mers.
MY opinion is that the state of af-
fairs in Cuba is improving, both in it's
military and political aspects. The in
surgentS are beginning to surrender
with their arms, and. families are com
ing in to seek the protection of our
forces, which have been able to push
operations in May, as the rains began
later this season"

House Bill No. 25 relating to income
tax, taken up for consideration in sec
ond reading.
Senator Brown moved that Section 1
be indefinitely postponed, on the
ground that Section II of the internal
tax bill, which passed third reading re-
Gently, provides for what Section ] of
| the proposed bill does. The internal tax
bill was introduced first. Next came
the income tax bill This being a sub
! sequent measure, might the point not be
raised that ii would repeal Section II
of the internal tax bill? Then again,
about the people outside Of the Repub-
lie. How can taxes on their incomes
! be collected? The income tax bill
| should be a part of the internal tax
| bill and separate from it.
Senator Baldwin, don't profess to
! be a lawyer, but / have looked care
fully into this matter. | have been
guided by lawyers entirely conversant
with the matter. / have found that a
certain part Of the bill is unconstitu-
tional, providing for double taxation.
! am not opposed to an income tax, al
though | was at the beginning of the
session. AS a member Of the com
mittee who had the internal tax bill
under consideration, / can speak on
the work that was done. We drew up
Section II, making provision for taxa
ton on properties of various corpora
tions or other owners as a whole. In
leVying this tax, all incomes, proper
ties and increases are taken into ac-
count. Section II makes the internal
tax an income tax bill in everything
but name. Our committee talked over
1, Co., Il
900 would be collected by tha Govern
ment over and above the amount at
present received. The members of the
House said they did not want Section
II and so they introduced the income
tx bill This they passed, but with
the reduction Of the tax from 3 TO /
per cent. AS I said before | do not OBJ
ject to an income tax, but it seems to
me that the two tax laws will clash
and will subsequently be thrown out
by the Supreme Court. In the event Of
such action, the Minister of Finance
will be placed in a very difficult posi-
ton. The trouble has been that the
House and Senate have not worked to-
gether or the matter. There might have
been different result if they had. A
clash will result and one of the laws
will have to go out.
Senator McCandless-The principal
objection of the first speaker is based
on the fear that the law, If passed,
might be declared unconstitutional and
thereby both tax laws would be jeopar-
died. L have consulted the best law
yers in town, and with one voice they
declare that there would be no jeopar-
dy at all. One Act does not bear on the
other. The two are separate and dis
tinct. So far as that is concerned,
there is no risk. / do not think that
the Supreme Court is going TO commit
hari-kari and throw out all the tax
laws. From time immemOrial every
reform that has been introduced has
been fought, and that too by the best

FATE OF CANAL BILL.

Minority VIII Not Make Report But
Decline TO Accept.
WASHINGTON, May 22.-The report
of the Committee on Interstate and For

bill has not yet been completed. The
subcommittee having the matter in
charge, of which Representative Sher-
man of New York is chairman, expects
to have the document prepared within
day or two. 1t was believed that the
minority of the committee would file a
report, but some Of their associates are
inclined to think that they will simply
remain silent and not sign the report
favorably recommending the bill.
