1101 Til HEARING Re-Argument of the Case Before Supreme Court. Full Bench Present—Large Gut her- i lug of Legal Talent Interested In the Argnincuts Counsel Attack the Constitutionality of the Law. Say It Should Be Declared Void. Washington, May 7.—The roargumenfc of the income tax cased began In the su preme court of the United States yester day in the presence of a large assemblage ol law and laity. For the iirst time since last November there was a full complement of justices 011 the bench, j Justice Jackson took an active interest in the proceedings, and there was ap parently nothing to warrant the expec tation that lie might not be able to un dergo the fatigue of the hearing. It was , well 011 toward 1 o'clock when W. I). j Guthrie opened the argument for tho petitioners, Messrs. Ilyde and Pollock, who seek to enjoin tho directors of tho Farmers' Loan <£: Trust and Continen tal Trust companies, "f New York, from paying th. tax 011 the dividends declared on the stock of these corporations, and in so doing attack the constitutionality of the law. Against Direct Taxation. In submitting tho petition for a re- j hearing, Mr. Guthrie said there was a , doubt, not so much us to whether cou gross had power to tax, but as to its method of taxation. The decision in this ! j ease should settle finally and forever the 1 greatest constitutional question ever brought before the court. 111 the con- | volitions called to ratify the constitution t tho matter of direct taxes WHS particu- < htrly referred to. Mr. Guthrie tlleu called the attention of the court to the < instances where personal property was • particularly referred to, in order to show j 1 the court that the people understood that | taxes on personalty were included in tho i ] term "direct taxes." Marshall, in the Virginia convention, explained the term 1 direct taxes when he said; "The objects 1 of direct taxes are well understood, but i they are few. Lands, slaves, stock of all 1 kinds, and a few otner articles of do- > mestic property." Tax I.aws of the Colonies. Mr. Guthrie also quoted from debates j in the conventions in North Carolina, New York, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, etc., to show that tho people did not un derstand or consider the word "direct" . in tho constitution applied only to capi tation taxes and taxes directly on land. Mr. Guthrie then examined the tax laws of the colonies and states in order to show tho familiarity of the delegates 3 with taxes not only upon land and in- i come derived therefrom, but upon per- ' sonal property or estate and the income I and profits thereof. This examination tended to prove that the delegates must have intended to include u tax on per sonal estate, for otherwise, it must be clear that if they contemplated merely a land tax, they would have used these 1 words. s Land and Personal Property. 1 No difference in principle between the taxations of land and the taxation of personal property could be suggested ( which was recognized in jurisprudence. Land had some use, irrespective of its income, but tho great body of personal i property has 110 value whatever to Its ' owner, except by reason of the income arising therefrom. Logically, if taxes < on rents, issues and profit of real estate I 1 are equivalent to tuxes on the land itself, and, therefore direct taxes, taxes on the 1 income of personal property as such must be equivalent to tuxes on such property 1 and therefore direct taxes. Invalidates the Whole Act. Mr. Guthrie then presented the views set forth at some length in the brief upon the contention that as it was clearly tho ! , intention of congress to have the law act j , as 11 whole upon all incomes, the pro- I visions which are unquestionably void | invalidates the whole act. In order to preserve the provisions now remaining i the court must strike out words actually 1 ■ used, such as rents, income and product of land. Court Must Interpret, Not Remodel. Counsel took the ground that It was impossible for tho court to remodel tho tho act and say that congress would have passed tho act without the provisions j which it has in terms made an integral ; part. For tlie court to do this would be \ legislating and making a law, not doclar- j ing or interpreting it. This contention i was enforced by many citations from de cisions. Luck of Uniformity. The most glaring Instance of tho lack of uniformity and equality was the ex ception of selected corporations and in stitutions under Which over $2,000,000, - j 000 of accumulations were relieved from I the duty and burden of federal taxation. The real question in the cast- was whether ! this act lacks uniformity and creates in- \ equalities, and he said counsel would 1 devote thomselvcs to thut question of fact and not to refuting what was so strenuously argued by the government— that the uniformity required By the con stitution was merely geographical. There fore the act of 1804 faili d wholly to com ply with the constitutional requirement. ! Mr. Whitney for tho Government* Mr. Guthrie was followed by assist ant attorney general E. B. Whitney in support of the law Mr. Whitney said tlie government would suggest nothing further on tho subject of tax upon state and municipal bonds than had been set forth in the original argument. It was j not necessary, he said, that n law should j specify in its terms every exception to j which it is subject in order to make it constitutional; otherwise, he submitted, there have been but few valid tax laws passed by the congress. Tho ruling of tho court as to the subject of state and municipal bonds, Mr. Whitney said, (lid ! not, in the opiuion of the government's ! counsel, uilect tho other points involved.

Within that time he fought three battles and captured the capital. He was chosen president by the constitutional convention which was im mediately organized and has proved him- 1 self to be a wise and just ruler. UNDER POLICE SURVEILLANCE.

An Amicable Agreement Promised- Russia Will Bo Satisfied with a Barge Slice of Manchuria, Whtlo Japan Will Bo Contented with a Larger Indemnity. Paris, May o.—The St. Petersburg correspondent of the Temps says that Japan, in her reply to the joint protest, consented to abandon Liso Tong, except ing Port Arthur. The protesting powers have not reached an agreement regard ing the reply, the correspondent asserts, ami the exchanges of opinion continues. The European edition of the Herald learns from its Derlin correspondent that Russia has informed Germany she will declare war in case Japan insists upon the Shimonoseki troaty. Situation in Formosa. London, May 0. Dispatches from Hong Kong say that the situation in Formosa is most serious. British and German marines have been landed at Anping to protect the foreigners, and British sailors and armed launches are patrolling Takau harbor. The black flags cause much anxiety. They seldom have been more threatening in recent years. Considerable upprchcnsion is felt in Hong Kong as regards the differences between Russia and Japan. Amicable Agreement Promised. The Standard's Berlin correspondent says: "Although Japan's first reply to the joiut protest was unsatisfactory, the present state of the negotiations promises an nmicable agreement. The details are secret, but it seems that Russia will bo satisfied if she gets a large slice of south east Manchuria, containing one or more Ice-free harbors, while Japan will be con tent if she gets an island or more be sides an increased indemnity. Should the Japnnese war party persist in not altering the treaty, Premier Count Ito probably will be sacrifled. The powers certainly will insure China's giving Japan an ample guurauteo for the in demity granted in lieu of territory. No Edict Issued. The Timco correspondent in Peklu says: "The fact that the emperor has ratified the treaty is known only to a few persons. No edict has been issued. Prince Kung urged the ratification. Mail)' Chinese would huye preferred that the Japanese reach Pekin, as the gov ernment then would have been com pelled to initiute reforms. Now there is small chunce of any change for the better." Lost Control of Soldiers. The Times correspondent in Hong Koug confirms the reports of disturbance in Formosa. The governor says the ces sion of the island to the Japanese would produce rebellion. He has lost control of the soldiers, and the foreigners must take measures to insure their own safety. 11. M. S. Spartau is preparing to land a force of bluejackets at Jumsui. Under Scaled Instructions. The Times correspondent in Berlin speaks of the report that the Russian war ships formerly stutioned at Yoko hama were ordered to sea with sealed in structions, adding that the squadrons of the three protesting powers have been commanded to assemble at Chifu. SOLE LEATHER GOING Ul\ If the Trust Wins, Shoes Will Cost Us Forty Per Cent. More. New York, May o.—An advance In sole leather to thirty-three cents a pouud has been made by the United States Leather company. The price has been raised within a fortnight from twenty cents. The company claims that the scarcity of hides has caused the advance, though there does not appear to have been any corresponding rise in the market price of hides. Dealers and manufacturers are protesting against the advance, which is believed to be an attempt at cornering the market, and it is predicted that the the present price cannot long be main tained. The advances already made, if held, would make $3.00 shoes sell at $4.25, $4 shoes would cost >JU5.75 and the more expensive grades in proportion.
