The plan has been modified in several

somewhat in doubt as to the tax on
financial institutions The presidents
and officers Of number of the banks

neys have made strong appeals for a
change from the plan proposed by the
Senate bill, and it is hinted that some
change may be made in their favor also.
The Senate bill proposed a tax OF IL
per cent on the capital. surplus, and IN
divided profits OF these institutions. The
attorneys, who were heard the other
day by the Appropriations Committee.
advocated instead Of this tax z tax Of

Significance of Exemptions.
It is estimated that the exemption Of
personal property to the extent Of 81. .00o
and the exemption of all joweIry. cloth

5000 to 10000 househoIders from all

means viii be taxed The idea Of this
change OF plan was that it would remove
one of the chief objections raised to
the bill, and that it would tend to equal
ize the personal and realty taxes. it
being thought that in general the small
er realty holdings are taxed relatively
more than the large properties
