SUPREME COURT DECISIONS.
No. 10. People OF the State OF New
York, ex rel, O. P. Williams, plaintiff ii
error VS.. VIM. J. Weaver, ct, al, assessor
in error to the Court OF Appeals OF New
York. This case involves the question o.
the legality Of the States action in virtu
ally discriminating against capital invest
ed in National bank stock in valuations
and assessments made for State taxes
This court holds:
First-That the provision Of the National
bank law OF that State says that the tax
on shares Of banks shall not be at greater
rate than Is assessed on other moneyed
capital in the hands OF citizens OF that
State, has reference TO the entire process
OF assessment, and includes the valuation
oil shares as well as the rates OF percentage
charged at such valuation.
Second-That the statute OF the State
which established and made the assess.
ment by which the shares Of the national
banks are valued higher in proportion to
their real value than other moneyed capi-
tai Is in conflict with an act OF Congress,
even though no greater per centage Is
levied on that valuation than on the valu-
alton OF other capital.
Third-That the statute OF New York OF
1866 which permits the debtor to deduct
the amount OF his debts from the valuation
of all his personal property, including
money capital, except his bank shares,
taxes those shares at greater rate than
other capital, and Is therefore void as to
the shares OF the national banks. The
judgment OF the New York Court Of APP
peals Is reversed.
No. S22. Frederick W. Pelton, Trea-
surer, vs. Commercial National Bank OF
Cleveland. Appeal from the United
States Circuit Court for the Northern Dis
trict OF Ohio. This court holds that the sys-
tematic and intentional assessment Of ma
tional bank shares at their true value,
while all other capital is assessed far be.
low its true value is violation OF the act
OF Congress prescribing a rule by which
such shares shall be taxed, and upon the
payment or tender OF the sum which the
bank share ought to pay under the said
rule. A court Of equity will enioin the State
authorities from collecting. The remain
der OF the decree is affirmed with costs.

rne Trne s,ory or wIIlinm Tell.

He was captain OF an archery club, aud
one OF the best shots with a bow aud ar.
row in all Switzerland. The country was
then under the rule of the tyrant Gesler.
One day Gesler set his ping hat on pole
for men to salute, and ordered that every
man in Altorf should make obeisance to it
or die. And they did, every man OF them.
Even the trees standing around made
their best boughs, Finally Bill Tell came
along with his little boy. He told the
men OF Altorf that before he would bow to
Gesler's hat he would 'Altorf and stamp
on 1t. That was the kind OF bow and
arrow he was.
Gesler arrested him on the spot, being
marshal Of the village as well as tyrant,
thus drawing a salary from two offices,
contrary to the constitution. Gesler, Us q
punishment for his audacity, ordered him
to shoot an apple off the head OF his boy.
This he did, although It was an arrow es'
cape for the young Tell. The apple fell,
pierced to the core, no encore being allow
ed owing to the extreme length OF the
performance. As Tell rushed forward to
embrace his boy another arrow dropped
out of his vest. "Han cried the tYrant
"Wherefore concealest that arrow?n Re
piled Tell, pointing TO Gesler's head.geal
on the top OF the poleI ITO shoot that
bAtl" The joke was so good that Geslei
released him and gave him twenty dol
