HI8TORV OF THE INCOME TAX The First Bill of the Kind Reported In the Extra Session of 1861. The Waya and Means Committee are ask ng for a history of the Income tax in the United Htatea, and Treasury Ulcer have been looking the thing up. It was during the extra session of Congress In 1801 that fhad Stevens, chairman of the Committee of Ways and Means, reported the first In some Tax bill. As amended and passed, it taxed all Incomes over H00 3 per cent unless derived from United Btatee bonds, which were taxed li per cent Incomes of citizens ofthe United Mates residing abroad were taxed 7i per cent. Owing lo the late time of its taking effect the income tax brought Into the Treasury but a small sum prior to the year lftilt when there wae collect ed under the head of income tax a little over 1000,0(X).

The bomb wss thrown while the Cham ber was engaged In routine proceedings. Th Hour was Idled with Ministers and deputies, and the galleries were crowded with specta tors. The bomb, which, In addition to the explosive, contained a lot of horse shoe nails and scraps of iron, was dropped from an upper gallery and was exploded by a lime fuse before it reached the floor of the Chamber, hurling It deadly contents In all directions. A shriek of horror arose In tinlsrin from the members and spectators, and amid the blinding smoke and the cries and groans of the Injured, the thousand people In the Chamber made a wild rush to reach the outer rooms. Nobody was killed, but about 100 oplc were more or less injured. Many will bear the marks of their wounds for life, while several have been incurably crippled. President Dupuy was cut In the cheek and Henutor Millut received several flesh wounds. Although Injured, M. Dupuy retained hi presence of mind, and after the first wave of excitement was over, he rang bis bell, re stored order and said: ".Such outrngts cannot disturb the cham ber. We shsll continue our labors, and. after we exhaust the order of the day, the t iiamber a oiiiciais win uo their duty in re gard to the outrage."

Meanwhile the wounded were removed tothe ante chamber and their woundi d rested. When the exp'oalou occurred, with ad mirable discipline the soldiers at the en trance to the gallery closed the gates anc allowed none of tne panic stricken specta tors to escape. They carefully examined al of them before they would allow them t depart. Three men were detained, amonir them Valllant. His right arm was shattered by l he explosion, his nose was blown on and bis neck and chest were lacerated. Hi said he suffers much pain.

Doubta have risen aa to whether Valllan is the man that threw the bomb. It Is sug Jested that be waa an accomplice and that le simply screened the real thrower.

In cases where it was sustained and another medical examination waa thought necessary the payment of the iiensioas waa ordered suspended pending in vestigalion. The pensioner wa not dropped from the' rolls, but the payment of his pension was suspended and 00 days' notice given him in which he could ask for a medical examina tion or supply further evidence of his right to a pension. The examination of bis proof having disclosed tbat he was not entitled to a pension; he waa told tbat the payment of his pension was suspended until be could put on record a esse which would autborixe payment.

The former practice in re gard to suspensions waa also modified tn cases where tbe proof on tile disclosed the fact that the pensioner waa entitled to some rating, although not to the rating which nau ocen auowea bim.
