TAX CASES.

WHAT WAS DONE YESTERDAY.
The consideration Of the tax cases was re-
sumcd in the County Court yesterday morning.
The session was consumed in receiving evi-
dence in No. 30, aud Monday morning Edward
]. Whitehead, ESQ.,, the attorney for the OBJ
jcctors, will open the arguments in their behalf,
us The evidence in this case is all in.
The point sought to be made by Saturdays
OF. 1875 was never published, and never took
effect The Charter requires that all ordinances
shall he signed by tile Mayor il lie approves thenl
or If lie does not veto them, they sh1ll take
elect ten days utter they have been passed by
the vote oI the Aldermen in tho City Council.
1t also requires that all ordinances making ap-
preparations shall be published III d newspaper
in the city ten days before they shall take eli
feet.
The Appropriation ordinance OF 1875 was pcss-
ed by the City Council June 80, 1875, It was, in
fact, signed by the Mayor Oh that day. It was
not published as an ordinance passed by tue
Council and signed by the Mayor, but July it
was included in the published report OF the
Council proceedings and published only as an
ordinance passed BY the Alderman at the ses-
sion Of June 80.
It is claimed by the attorney for the obiectors
that this gaze the public no notice that it had
become Law; and was in fact no publication of
the ordinance as a law.
i point which has been raised by John Bor-
den during the consideration OF these. cases is
limit OF ito indebtedness, to~"it. thc fuIlleu
and floating debts together amount to $1S000,
600. If it is q fact that it has done SO, it is
claimed that the appropriations made to pay of
this Illegal debt, or interest thereon, are void,
aud vitiate the entire tax-leSY.

REDUCTIONS.
TIE oED1NANCE SIGNED,

TIE ORDINANCE SIGNED.
Mayor Heath Yesterday attached his official
signature to the reduction ordinance, and it il
now Law. All that remains to be done is fol
the heads Of departments to make the reduc
tions, and then that which has occupied so muck
attention OF late is finished. The Mayor WAS
guided in bis action by the verbal opinion ot
Corporation Counsel Anthony. The opinion
was that the reductions were legal SO far as
they related to the employees, but that the Of
ticcrs could not be made to accept less pay than
the amount allowed them in the Appropriation
bill. The clerks we're hired hands employed
by the month; the others were engaged by the
yeor for SO much, and that amount could
not be diminished. Of course this could
be gotten AROUND around 49,, BY |., fliseharSing 3;:
a Sate by
1ncnt, or by getting others to fill their places
for less money. The elected officers could not
be intcrfered with
The Mayor yesterday told the heads of de-
he should allow them to make the reductions in
their own departments. Tie talked with them
about reducing their own salaries, and this some
of them agreed to do. 1t is intended to try to
persuade all the officials to reduce their own
pay Some persons regard this as not right
can be drawn between the work Of the Chief of
tile Police, or Fire Department, and that Of the
City Attorney, Corporation Counsel, or City
Comptroller, the salaries Of the officers will be
found willing to accept the duties and RESPONSE
bilitics OF the Office Of Chief Of Police, while
good, competent man who would leave good
practice to accept either Of the aforementioned
positions in the Law Department would be hard
to find. The work of the lawyer is totally dis
similar from that of the chief Of department.
Corporation Counsel Anthony accepted the po-
siti0n which he now holds merely to helm the

The City Treasurer yesterday received s6o, 900
from County-Treasurer Huck.
The sum Of ST, 900 was received on the popu-
lar loan yesterday. The greater part Of it
S12.000-was the investment Of Baltimore
capitalist.
The Mayor has approved the ordinance re-
stricting to certain hours the use of hose for
watering gardens, ETC. He realizes the incon-
venience caused by scarcity OF water, and YES
tcrtiay requested the Superintendent Of Police
to order his men to pay strict attention to the
yiolators Of the ordinance.
The contract for hauling water-pipe for the
remainder Of the season has been awarded to
Stafford & Murphy, the lowest bidders. As the
Board Of Public Works has been ordered to buv
no more watcr-pipe, and as none to speak Of is
being laid at present, the contractors will have

It is understood that the Board Of Public
Works will discharge all the street foremen
