incuts mado thereto by Uiu senate
touching tobacco cigars and snull.
Tho reduction would diminish the in-
ternal revenue taxes from thirty-live
to forty millions. Ho was tumble to
make nu estimate of tho Immediate
effect of thu changes proposed in the
tarlir law. The result however was
that the total reduction of revenue un-
der this bill ho could not defend but
ou the whole ho considered it an Ini
proveinent.

mate wtiH eleven million.
