REPOP.T OF CONFERENCE COM
MITTEE. 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,

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

( 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.

Score of 10 to a.
That strong amateur team, the Lack

College team at Athletic park yester
day afternoon by a score of 10 to 5.
Griffin did some very clover twirling
for the college boys but was a trifle
wild at times and at tho times when
he was sending men to base on balls
he was also hit hard. The last thr:o
Innings were the most -disastrous for
him.
The features of the game were the
heavy hitting of Gaughan of the Lack
awannas, who made six hits In six
times at bat, and the Infield work of
Morris of the Lackawannas and Mr
Laughlln of the college team. Cawley
pitched a good steady game for the
