Mortgage Tax Law Stands In the
House of Delegates, on Tuesday, the bill to
repeal the law taxing the income derived
from mortgages was taken up as the special
order. Mr.. Gould, of this county, moved
that the time be limited to 90 minutes for
debate on each side, Mr.. Rouzer moved
that each member who desired to speak
should be allowed three minutes. The latter
motion prevailed.
Mr.. White, the author of the bill, spoke
in favor of it. He said that the martgage
tax law was imperative and could not be
enforced, giving statistics from the Comp
troller's report to prove what he said. Sew
eral members yielded their time TO Mr..
White, so that his remarks extended far be.
yond the limit. He was interrupted from
time TO time by different members, who fat
ly contradicted his figures and other state
ments, and cited figures and facts to prove
their side of the case
Mr.. Riley favored the continuance of the
mortgage income tax, and said that further
safeguards should be added to it rather than
that II should be repealed. Mr.. White, of
Worcester, said that the law was operative
and that in time it would yield a large rev.
enue to the State and local treasures.
Several members attempted to speak at
the same time, and considerable confusion
resulted, to end which Mr.. Syester called
for the previous question, but the call was
no, sustained. Mr. Jenness advocated the
repeal OF the law, and Mr.. Anderson, of this
county, favored its continuance, saying that
the people OF his county wanted il TO stand.
Mr.. Butts, OF Frederick, said the same thing
for his county. Mr.. jenkins favored repeal,
and claimed that the people of Baltimore
city desired it. Mr.. Harm spoke for the tax
and quoted from the Comptroler's report
Mr.. Writ held that the law was humbug
and Ineffective and should be repealed Mr..
Wilkinson asserted that there were millions
of property in this State that escaped taxa
ton, and that the holder of a mortgage
should pay tax as much as the owner of a
house. Mr.. Wilkinson made an eloquent
speech, which was greeted with loud ap.
plause. Mr. Miles favored the continuance
of the tax. The previous question was then
ordered, and the vote was "A nays to 30
ayes. So the repeal of the mortgage tax
was finally defeated

Canal Afiairs--A dispatch from Cum
berland, dated March 7th, says:
The bondholders of 1874, who at present,
under the authority of the court, are oper-
ating the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, have
purchased the canal labor claims, aggre-
eating $50 900, and have thus brought to an
end litigation looking to the sale Of the
canal, which has been pending for five or
six years.
Governor Lowndes held $40, 900 Of these
claims and Mrs. Ellen Stubble1eld, of Cum
berland, $4,000 The latter tried to force
the sale OF the waterway to secure the pay.
ment OF her claims, alleging that it was be-
ing fraudulently operated, in the interest of
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company,
TO keep other railroads from securing il as
roadbed, but the court decided against
her. An appeal was taken, and the case
was pending when the bondholders of 1874
last week purchased the claims, at the rate
of so cents on the dollar. This satisfies the
creditors and leaves the bondholders in un
disputed control, giving great setback TO
the chances of the West Virginia Central
Railroad Company securing the canal as a
roadbed

Remenyi's Remains Will Be Elm baim<d and Shipped to
 New York

Edouard Remenyi had many friends in life, and since death closed the eyes of the great violinist he has not been forgotten. His body has been taken charge of by CoIonel KowaSky, who had it removed to the undertaking parlors of Porter & White, with orders to have 1t embalmed and prepared for shipment to the East.
 All day yesterday Colonel Kowalsky was besieged with offers Of assistance by many who had known and respected the deceased during life. First among these were the representatives or the Or pheum company, who agreed to pay all the expenses of having the body em- balmed and shipped East. Many or his fellow musicians also came ana requested that they be given the privilege or noIo- ing a service over the body before IL IS sent away for interment. It IS prooapie that a joint service of the muSlclans ana Austrian societies will be held:
 Remenyi's widow lives in New 1ork, and is at present i'll with heart disease. The news was broken to her graduaily. First telegram was sent statlng that he was seriously ill., then one that tnere was no hope, and finally the news or ms death The family has already been communicated with regarding the dis posal of the body, but no definite lnstruc- tions have as yet been received.
 It is stated by some that the great mu- stefan leaves his family in somewhat straitened circumstances. and in view of this fact a benefit entertainment Is al- ready being talked of If this proves to be the case the plans will take some tam gible form before the end of the week.

FIVE MISSIONARIES
 SLAIN BY NATIVES.
Dr. and Mrs. McGrew Not Among
 the Killed at Sierra Leone.

WASHINGTON, May 1s-Secretary Day has telegraphed Ambassador Hay at Lon don to procure all information he can in regard to the alleged massacre of Ameri- can commissaries and the destruction of mission property at Sierra Leone, on the west coast of Africa, and to make special efforts to ascertain whether MT. and Mrs. McGrew were among the number killed.
 On the 9th inst. Ambassador Hay sent a cable message to the Secretary of State saying that he had received the following message from ti.e London Foreign Office. being an extract from telegram of the Governor of Sierra Leone, Sir F. Garden, to MT. Chamberlain
 Regret to inform you that the following American missionaries were killed by fnsur- gent bands at Rotifunk: Mir. and Mrs. Cain Misses Archer. Hatfield and Siebenck. Miss Ward. well as the following named mis- sionaries, are here, quite safe: MT. and Mrs Buntner and MT. and Mrs Minshall from Shelgeh and Miss Mullen from Hlinialigi.
 This message makes no reference to Dr. and Mrs. McGrew, and their friends in this country are becoming apprehensive as to their possible fate. Secretary Day instructed Ambassador Hay to make Hay replied on the 18th inst. that Mr. and Mrs. McGrew were stationed at Robetta and were safe. On the following day the Secretary of State cabled the American Ambassador at London that they were stationed at Taima at last accounts.

LONDON, May 17.-A dispatch to the Standard from Corunna says: The presence of the British Channel squad ron at Villagarcia is likely to lead to some unpleasantness. The idea of an Anglo American alliance has so in famed the Spaniards that the postmen from the fleet. when on shore to collect letters, have been hooted and stoned. Threats have been made to stop the supply of provisions to the fleet. The British Consul protested to the Alcalde, who explained that the popular resent ment was due to belief in the exis- tence of an alliance and to the further impression that the fleet took wheat that properly belonged to the poor.

Charley McKeever, the clever Eastern welterweight pugilist, Is in this city. He arrived from New York on Sunday, and is expecting to be matched against any one of the 140-pound pusilists who are seeking favorable consideration from the local athletic clubs. The National Club managers are of the opinion that Me Keever- and Daly would make a good drawing card, and with that object in view they have communicated with Daly's manager Sam Fitzpatrick. According to Eastern reports Daily is growing rapidly in weight, and his manager is of the opin- ion that in this balmy climate he could not possibly meet Lavigne at the figures "the Kid" would assuredly demand if a match, to take place on this coast, is contemplated McKeever says the New York clubs cannot pull off any good fistic contests for several weeks, and that O'Rourke informed him that owing to certain political maneuvers first-class matches will not De tolerateu m New ! ork for some time.
 Jack Daly has proven in his recent en- agreements with Lavigne that he is a first-class welter, and doubtless contest between him and McKeever would prove quite interesting.
