AN IMPORTANT DECISION AGAINST THE
9OvERNMENT.-JudgeM cKennon, presiding in
the United States circuit court, now sitting at
Philadelphia, yesterday nled an opinion in the
case of the Reading railroad company vs. John
b. Kenny, which may be of interest to railroad
companies generally and other railroad paying
corporations. The defendant was a collector OF
internal revenue, and attempted to collect q
tax upon the dividend declared by the company
on the S0th of November, 1870, under the pro-
visions of the act of July II, 1870 The COM
pany resisted and brought suit. Judge McKon-
non has decided that the act of July IA, 1910,
does not apply TO dividends declared during
that year, thus sustaining the position taken by
the COMPANY.

ORIGIN oE THE CREDIT MoBILIER-
In the Constitutional Convention at
Philadelphia, last Tuesday, speaking of
the Credit Mobelicr, Mr. Boyd, of Mont
gomery, made the following remarks ::
Il believe that if reformation is to be
begun anywhere by this Convention, it
should be in the Legislature. Why i?
Do gentlemen know that it was in the
Legislature of Pennsylvania that for the
paltry sum of $4,000 was chartered the
Credit Mobilier, corporation which
was refused incorporation by the Legis-
lature of New York for less than $780,
600, and by the New Jersey Legislature
for less than Sl50,O00? But when thev
come over into Pennsylvania, they find
the Legislature ready for the insignif-
cant sum of $4,000 to set it on foot.
Then it was transported to Maine and
ran its Shiny course throughout the en-
tire Union. And, Sir it has corrupted
men in the highest walks of life. as well
as those in the lowest, until we are told
by Investigations now going on that this
country has been robbed of over $780,
| 100000"
