Tax on MOnopolleS.
REPUBLICANS TO RESCUE
Only Four of Them Vote Against
Observation-Disclosures Casts
Single Favorable Ballot
on Majority Side.
rFrom The Tribune Bureau.

Washington. Aug 29.-Further evidence
Of discord in the ranks of the Democrats
in the Senate was forthcoming to-day
when Senator Hitchcock, OF Nebraska, Of
fered his amendment 10 the tariff bill
placing a prohibitive tax upon monopo-
lies and censured his party for resorting
20 caucus rule.
The Democratic members Of the Finance
Committee met tonight to pass upon final
notifications in the bill and to compose
the differences that have arisen in the
majority ranks over the question Of the
income tax a caucus will probably be
held later to pass finally upon these
changes. II is expected that the Finance
Committee will increase the surtaX upon
large incomes in compliance with the in
surgent demands.
A bitter assault upon the administrative
provisions of the income tax section ex-
empting the officers who will be appointed
70 collect the tax from the operation OF
the civil service law was made by the
Republicans to-day. The Democrats were
charged with suspending the civil service
law in order that they might seize upon
all the Offices. but under the leadership OF
Senator Smith. OF Georgia. they stood
their ground and refused to modify the
bill in this respect.
Senator Hitchcock offered his amend
ment shortly after the Senate convened
il provides for q tax of . per cent on
the incomes of corporations controlling
from one-quar.er to one-third Of the bust
ness of the country in any line, 10 per
cent on those controlling from one-thrd
10 one-half and 20 per cent on those con-
trolling more than one-half.
Senator Bristow and other Republicans
came 10 the support of the Senator from
Nebraska and when the roll was called
the result showed that all but four Re-
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Colt, Mclean. Sher-
man and Smoot-supported the amend
ment. while the author himself cast the
only vote for il on the majority SIDE.
The vote was 30 to Al, the amendment
being rejected.
This bill" said Senator Hitchcock,
after admitting the propriety Of submit
ting the tariff section 10 the caucus, con
tains other provisions for raising revenue
and regulating business. On them Sen
ators should be freed from caucus con-
troll. They should be allowed TO vote ac-
cording to individual preference and con-
viction. Why should Senators be ex-
pected to be bound by the hasty decisions
OF secret caucus on details of the in
come tax? Why should they be expected
10 vote down every amendment, however
good. simply because it comes from the
other side of the chamber
