All Votea For ale peal Were Caal Bv Dciuocrala Tbe Populists And Hevenljr-Flve Democrats Help Republlcaua To Defeat it Washington, June 7. The Brawlcy bill to suspend the operation of the 10 per cent, taiouclcarmg bouse certificates issued Inst summer, tbe substitute for it and the Cox amendment , repealing the tax were defeated in tl House yeste day by a vote ot 102 to 1 70. The debate closed at 2:10 6'clock and the vote was taken on the Cox amend mcht to repeal the ten per cent, tax out right. The vote was . announced yeas 102, nays 170. Tbe announcement was received with slight applause. The substitute of the committee on banking and currency tor the original Brawley bill, suspended the operation ol the ten per cent, tax as to the issue ot cer tificates, etc., by clearing houses and otber organizations last year, merely changing the verbiage so as to make more explicit, was defeated on a viva voce vote. Then the original bill was lost. This was the end ot tbe 10 days' debate and a result that occasioned some surprise and tbe announcement was re ceived amid tmicu confusion and ap plause. Tbe 102 votes cast for the Cox amend ment were all Democrats, Ot tbe 170 nav votes, HO were Republicans, 75 Democrats and 8 Populists. Messrs Houk and Taylor of Tennessee voted nav. Commissioner Miller said today that tl'e defeat of the Brawlcy bill to relieve certain Southern corporations from penalties incurred in the issue of "scrip or socalled money certificates during the bnancial stringency last summer and tall, would not result disastrously anv one or to the government. T be attorney general rendered an opinion last fall on samples of alleged monev submitted to him, that tbey were not subject to tax and on that state of the case, all efforts on the part of officers to collect tax or to ascertain how much of the socalled money certificates or scrip has been issued ceased. No such alleged money is now in use anywhere, AT THK HARBOR. KNTRANCG I NITKO STATES FORCES FLAY A PROMINENT PART. Revenue Cutter Bear on I be Rocks at Hlika S.
