HILL AMENDMENT RULED OUT OF CROER Publ Finally Succeeded in Getting One Adopted, Making the Questions Asked by Cols lectors & Little Less In- quisitorial, WASHINGTON, Jan, 16.—After a debate covering over a week the senate voted down Mr. Hill's proposition to refer the legality of the tax to the courts, only five senators joining with Mr. Hill in supporting the proposition. But the vote was not taken until late in the day, and up to that time income there was one of the most spirited debates that the Hill proposition has called out. Mr. Vest was the principal speaker of the day, and In view of his service on the tarift conference committe there was great interest mant ed In some of the commit- toe secrets which he felt justified in disclos- ing. In the course of his speech Mr, Vest called attention to the gravity of the tariff war which forelgn countries had begun against the United States as a result of the one-tenth sugar differential. Although Mr. Hill failed in referring the income tax to the court, he secured the adoption of an amendment which will have the effect of compelling the Treasury department to change its regulations as to the courts, Mr. Lodge's effort to have income tax. officials placsd under clvil service rules was defeated. The income tax appropriation was then agreed to, and the bill passed. Mr. Aldrich secured the passage of a resolution calling on president for information as to negotiations with Germany in regard to the tariff and re- taliation. enator Pettigrew of South Dakota was on the flocr for the first time since he was re-elected for six years, and received the congratulations of his fellow senators. Mr. Butler favorably reported from the commities on affairs the bill for #| comprehensive fon of the personnel of the navy. Bills were passed to provide for coinage at the branch mint at Denver; authorizing cer- tain naval officers to administer oaths; to exempt from duty foreign exhibits at the Cotton States exposition at Atlanta; granting the Glla Valley, a right of wi tary reservation With routine Globe & Northern railroad through the San Carlos mili- in Arizona business disposed of, the pending urgency deficiency bill was taken up, and Mr. Hill addressed the senate on his appeal from the ruling of the chairman, that his amendment to the income tax propriation was out of order. CONSCIOUS OF DEMOCRATIC DEFEAT. Mr. Vest directed attention to the state- ments of the senator from Maryland man) that the senate passed more bills than the house. Mr. Vest declared that of course a small body could act on routine business more expeditiously than a large body. “Yet,” continued he, “‘everyone knows we stand here like a lot of Muscovy drakes bow- ing and stooping solemnly and then go stupidly to the consideration of routine.” The senator said he did not shut his eyes to the disastrous and overwhelming defeat of the democratic party. He was now wait- ing the promised restoration of public seren- ity as a result of tho republican success. “I have no authority to speak for the president,” sald Mr. Vest, with much earn- estness, “but I most earnestly hope that if some definite action is mot taken by this congress tha president will call an extra session as soon as the gavel falls at the close of this sessicn without taking up the ques- tion of raising more revenue.” The senator referred to tho sugar duty and the tax on spirits. The onc-tenth differential on sugars had aroused a contention by Germany, Aus- tria and other countries. Mr. Vest explained the condition of each foreign country on the sugar question. He thought there was a good deal of pretense in Germany's claims against American cattle. “But these con- tentions with foreign countries,” said Mr. Vest, “indicate that we are entering upon a great commercial war, the extent of which it Is difficult to foresce.” He urged that it was essential that the one-tenth differential should be taken off in order to avert this tar- iff_war and ts disastrous consequences on our revenues. As Mr. Vest proceeded several interesting chapters on the enactment of the sugar schedule were disclosed. Mr. Allen of Ne- braska asked what the conferees had in- tended to do on the Hawailan treaty affect- ing sugar. Mr. Vest answered that the con- ferees desired to do away with that treaty, but they were told by certain senators whose votes were essential to the passage of the bill that this could not be done. It was im- perative that the votes of forty-three senators be secured. So, against the judgment of the senator and the committee, the desired action on the Hawaiian treaty had to be abandoned. Mr. Vest procceded fo state the substance of an agreement that had been made as to taking up the free sugar bill. AGREED TO ACT ON SUGAR. It was his understanding that the. manag- ing committee of democratic senators had agreed with leaders in tho house that if the latter body yielded and passed the amend- ments to the tariff bill the senate would in turn take up the special tariff bills, par- ticularly that as to sugar. His memory being refreshed by Mr. Harris, Mr. Vest sajd he did not mean to say there was a positive guaranty, but it was a general under- standing which warranted him in urging that this sugar question should be acted upon, Mr. White of California and Mr. Harris of Tennesseo spoke briefly against the Hill amendment. Mr. Hill again addressed the senate, answering cbjections raised to his amendment. This closed the debate, and for the pur- pose of simplification it was agreed to take the first vote on sustaining the chair in rul- ing out of order the Hill amendment, refer- ring the income tax to the courts. The chair was sustained on a yea and nay vote, 40 to 6, only five senators, Dubols, Davis, Mitch- ell (Ore.), Quay and Pettigrew, voting with Mr. Hill against the decision of the chair. By the vote the Hill amendment disappeared, as_the chair had ruled it out of order. Mr. Quay then sought to urge an amend- ment similar to that of Mr. Hiil, but it was ruled out by the chair on the same point of order. Mr. Lodge presented an amendment to the income tax appropriation providing that the collectors should be under civil service rules, The amendment was defeated, 17 to 34, Mr. Quay again sought to get the income tax be- fore the courts by proposing a new section but on a yea and nay voto the section was defeated, 19 to 32, Mr. Hill offered an amendment to the in- come tax provision restricting the interroga tories to persons or firms, notwithstanding the printed regulations of the internal rev- enue bureau. After Mr. Hill explained how far the Treasury department regulations went beyond the law, Mr. Cockrell, in charge of the bill, agreed to the amendment, and it was adopted. If the house agrees to the amendment it will have the effect of com- pelling modifications in the treasury regula- tions already issued as to the coliection of the income tax. The deficiency bill was then passed Mr. Aldrich presented a resolution ing on the president for the corre: with Germany relative to the tariff. resolution was agreed to.

In spite of the gremt interest taken in the political crisis the ecity remains tranquil, The resignation of the president produced a complete change in the business tendency on the stock exchange. Buying was entirely stopped and there was a closing of accounts for a rise, this proceeding rapidly In all de- partments. There was a general though mod erate decline. French rentes fell % francs with the majority of other international stocks. The Chamber of Deputies was crowded today when the sitting opened at 3:30 p. m., with M. Brisson presiding. M. Brisson read M. Casimir-Perier's letter of resigna- tion, and when he read the words: “A presi- dent of the republic without means of action, or without control, can derive from the con- fidence of the nation alone that moral force without which he fs nothing,’ Cunco A'Ornano, who is a strong advocate of ap- peals to the people, which he considers to be the base of a democratic republic, cried: “Let the president be elected by universal suffrage.” Brisson, however, continued read- ing the letter amid murmurs from the left. When he had finished reading the letter, Brisson said: ‘“The chamber has taken note of the presidential declaration which will be placed in the archives. Brisson afterwards announced he had re- celved a letter from Challemet-Lagour, presi- dent of the senate, convoking the National Assembly for 1 o'clock tomorrow at Ver- sailles. ~The president of the chamber then stated he had received from two deputies a proposal to revise the constitution, which proposal he could not officially recognize. Cuneo d'Ornano again shouted: “How about universal suffrage?” This caused Fabrot, a socialist and a working hatter, to cry: “Vive la repub- lique soclale, The Chamber of Deputies then adjourned. VIVE LE ROL As the deputies were leaving the chamber the Duc de la Rochefoucald and Duc de la Doudevale cried: “Vive le rof." A scen= of great excitement followed, dur- ing which the members of the left retorted with loud cries of “Vive la republique.” De Banddy d’Asson, legitimist, replied with a loud shout: “Vive le roi.” This increased tho excitement greatly, and caused the mem- bers of the left to gather and shout for the republic at the top of their voices, while choers for tha king were to be heard mingling with the cheers for the republic. In the senate Casimir-Perier's resignation was recelved very senators, in direct contrast to thelr usual attitudo’ of conservative reserve, repeatedly interrupted Challemet-Lacour while he was reading the president’s communication, Nearly every phrase elicited protests. For instance, one senator cried: “One does not enter into a discussion in a moment of dang Another senator shouted: statement, When the reading was concluded vehement protests arose from all parts of the house, and continued for some time. The senate finally adjourned until Monday next, All the various groups of deputies held separate meetings today, but they have not decided upon a candidate, The republicans will unite to force avote for one candidate of their party.

Ever since the beginning of \he present republic | the republican party has always shown a peculiar tendency to transform the Chamber | of Deputies into a convention—that is Into a Qictatorial executive rather thap an assembly | f leglalators. What happened Monday was nly one more preof of the singular force of Ui tendency. The act of the majority was e act of the convention. By resisting this | ency M. Dupuy has been greatly elevated | n the eyes of all constitutlonalists. He ust be praised for having immediately un- the radical position in pretending to contest the authority of the decision of the council of state. If, as believed by many, he chose to fall, he could not have possibly quitted office with more credit to himself than in a principle so universaily honored by sell respecting communities as that of a scpara- tion of powers. In an editorial the Times says: “M. Casi- mir-Perier was convinced that he accepted the only alternative. It must be allowed that he made the only honorable and dignified cholce, but if he has abandoned his post thropgh mere impatience or personal dis- gust he will be rightfully adjudged to have incurred heavy responsibility in the eves of his contemporaries and in history. Such an act may be the act of a strong man, but it is not the act of a true lover of his country.” The Standard’s correspondent in Paris says that M. Casimir-Perier, during his presidency has done nothing remarkable. His present decision_indicates great lack of moral cour- age. Besides M. Brisson and Dupuy, the other candidates are General Fevier and M. M. Marago and Cavaignac. The Pall Mall Gazette says: France is now in the throes of the most menacing_ crisis since the fall of the empire. The Gazette thinks parliamentary government in France has been tried and broken down and that there is a chance now, such as has not existed for twenty-five years, for a pretender to come forward. The Globe, on the other hand, thinks that there is not the slightest danger or hope that France will return to a monarchial form of government. Henri Rochefort, the exiled editor of the radical Intransigeant, is quoted as saying in an interview: “The present situation is a great triumph for the socialists because it is owing to them that M. Gerault-Richard s clected. I belleve that the chances are in favor of M. Waldeck-Roussea being elected dent to succeed M. Casimir-Perier. The candidacy of General Saussier cannot, in my opinion, be regarded as serious, and the views 0f M. Brisson are too advanced for him to have a chance of election by the national congress as at present constituted. These crises arise out of the hatred of the government for the universal suffrage. Had M. Casimir-Perier remained president we sheuld have scen many soclalists elected and he would have been obliged to resort to con- tinual coups d’etat similar to that which involved keeping M. Gerault-Richard in prison. I do not believe the new president will dare to oppose the popular will, but if he does he will fall like M. Casimir-Perier.” GONE AFTER BIS THRONE.
