The report of the conference commit tee of three on the reform bills to carry out the ple'dges of the state Re publican platforms In the campaigns of 1893 and 189G were taken up at the af ternoon session. Mr. Kunkel, of Daup hin, who had the measures In charge, called up the report on the' bill to pro hibit the payment of occupation or poll tax assessed for state or county pur poses of any elector by any person other than the elector against whom such tax Is assessed, except upon a written and signed order of such elec tor. The report was rejected, but be fore the result was announced Mr. Kun kel Induced enough members to change their votes 'to adopt the report by 10S to 40. The committee's report on the non assessment bill was next called up. This measure Is Intended to prohibit as sessments and demands for contribu tions from ofllcers and employes of the state, or any county or city. Mr. Kea tor, Philadelphia, said he proposed to vote against the bill because It was not in the form In which It hud been en dorsed by the last two Republican state conventions. The bill has been deprived of its most Important fea tures and does not carry out the .Re publican pledges of reform. Air. Kunkel replied that while tho bill was not In tho shape the most radical reformer desired, It wiis a step in the right direction. If this measure is defeated it will be tho end of re form in this direction for at least two years. If the people cannot get all they wnnt In the way of reform they are willing to take half. CALLED A FAKE AND FRAUD. Mr. Crothers, of Philadelphia, said no self-respecting member could af ford to vote1 for the bill. It was a fake end n fraud -and the members ehpuld not lend themselves to nuch legislation. By eliminating tho words "sugh'est or solicit contributions" from the bill the conference committee rob bed It of Its most vital parts. Mr. Kunkel denied that the hill was a fraud and a fake and challenged Mr, THERE IS A CLASS OF PEOPLE Who Ate Injured by the use of coffee. Recent ly tbers bun been placed in all the grocery toiesii new preparation called GRAIN-O. made of pure grutus, that taken the place or collie Tho most delicate stomaoh receive It wlthonl distress, unci nlt few can tell it from coffee. It doc not cost over lJ us much. ( hlldren may drink It with benefit. Iff cts. an l U5 cnts per package. Try It, Ask for Crothera to prove his assertion. Mr. Kunkel Bald tho proposition might not bo Just an tho most extreme reformers in Philadelphia desire, but It was n step In tho direction of tho reform which the people of the stato demand. Mr. Crothcrs replied he did not poso as a reformer, but as a man who does his duty. He repeated that tho bill had boon so emasculated as to make it a fraud and a fake. Mr. Crothers then asked Mr. Kunkel why the words "suggest or solicit" were stricken out. Mr. Kunkel replied that this was done by the senato and not by the confer ence committee. Mr. Crothers desired to Interrogate tho gentleman from Dauphin further, but Speaker Boyer refused to allow hltn and directed tho clerk to proceed with the roll call. While the clerk was call the roll Mr. Crothers Insisted upon his right to be heard. The speaker ruled that ho had spoken twice and was out of order, But Mr. Crothers was per sistent and claimed his right to be heard. Finally Mr. Boyer ordered the clerk to stop calling the roll and recog nized Mr. Crothers. Mr. Kunkel came to the speaker's relief by refusing to be Interrogated, whereupon the roll call was continued and the report was adopted by a vote of 108 to 22. THE WORD "UNDULY." Mr. Crothcrs also made a winning fight against the report on tho bill to protect tho free exercise of the right of suffrage at elections and to prohibit the Interference by firemen and police men with the right to vote. Ho said this bill was even a bigger fraud than tho other and by the Insertion of the word "unduly" before the words "so licit or Influence any voter" so quali fied It as to render the proposition ab solutely worthless and Inoperative, the clear intention being to legalize rather than prevent Interference at the polls. Mr. Kunkel replied that the word "unduly" was an adjective or qualifi cation frequently used in law and that tho bill was all right and ought to be come a law. Mr. Maust, of Cumber land, said he was too good a Republi can to lend himself to such a farcical proceeding. He challenged Mr. Kunkel to state a single case where the word "unduly" appeared In a penal or crim inal statute. The Insertion of this word vas for the purpose of defeating tho al leged object of the bill. Mr. Maust's speech was received with hearty nuplause, after which the re port of the committee was rejected by a vote of 8? to 41, less than a majority voting. The bill now goes to the sen ate. If that body refuses to recede from Its amendments the measure falls. The housa adjourned at 5.30 until 8 o'clock thtrf eyening. The report of the conference commit tee on tho nsh bill was called up by Mr. Peoples, of Lancaster, and adopted. Tho bill now goes to the governor. The evening session was given up almost entirely to the consideration of sen ate amendments to house bills, none of which are of general Interest. The house refused to concur In the state amendments to the Are alarm bill and subsequently- reconsidered Its action on motion of Mr. Wenk, of Forest. A motion to postpone further considera tion of the amendments was adopted. Tills leaves the bill in the shape in which It originally passed the house. While the matter was under considera tion word was received from the sen ate that that body had receded from its amendments. The bill goes to the executive. The house adjourned at 10 o'clock until 10 tomorrow morning. PROTEST OF AGENTS. The Insurance Men Are Given a Hear ing Before the Senate Fi nance Committee. Harrlsburg, June 24. Tho senate finance committee gave a hearing to a delegation of Philadelphia Insurance men this afternoon on the bill taxing Insurance companies from 9 mills to 8 cents on premiums received in Penn sylvania. The following statement was filed by tho delegation: This bill Is suicidal which, In order to raise J223.S86 revenue, taxes same upon companies foreign to thl3 state, thereby causing Its own companies to pay out $5S0,5fi6 Into the coffers of other states as retaliatory taxes, and not content with this, going even farther, In order to raise not over $1,270 from companies operated from abroad, im poses a 1 per cent, tax on one or pos sibly two American companies of tho state of New York operated from Eu rope, resulting In the additional pen alizing of Pennsylvania companies a further sum of $116,113 to outside states, a total of $225,136 raised to the state at the expense of $696,679 taken out of Its own companies. If this is not financial suicide of a distinction without a difference. The proposed bill Is unconstitutional because It taxes Pennsylvania insurance companies, 49 per cent, of whose stock Is owned In Europe, nine-tenths of one per cent, and taxes one, 51 per cent, of whose stock Is owned In Europe, or whose business Is carried on for the benefit of a European company, for the same rights and privileges to transact In tho same manner the same corpor ate business within this state, four per cent. In other words these two corpora tions, each a citizen of this state, are to pay grossly unequal rates of taxation becauso tho complexion of their stock holders has changed orte per cent, either way. The constitution of Pennsylvania, article IX, section 1, provides "all taxes shall bo uniform upon the same class of subjects within tho territorial limits of tho authority levying the tax." It Is unconstitutional to tax an Euro pean company four per cent, and an Alnerlcan company three per cent, for the same privileges because as to this state both aio equally foreign, and for the further reason that the right to regulate International relations Is vested exclusively in the federal gov ernment by means of treaties and fed eral statutes. The committee promised to defer fur ther action on tho bill In the senate un til Monday night." Colonel v Beatty, Messrs. Kramer, Tenny, Froyer, Crelghton and other Philadelphia In surance men spoke In opposition to the proposed system of taxation. TRIAL OF M00RIIEAD.
