supreme-Court Decision I'm IA Rail.
road Case.

wAsuuxGToS, u. c., April "A decision
was rendered by the Supreme Court To-
day in the tax case Of the Memphis and
| Charleston Railroad Company against The
United states, brought here upon writ
| Of error from the United States Cireuit
Court for the W estern District OF Ternes-
see. This was n suit instituted by the
7 United States 10 recover taxes alleged 10
be due from the company under the reve-
nue. acts Of 1862, 1864. and 1866, on ac-
count Of interest, coupons, and dividends
paid between July /. 1862, and January /.
I 1866. This court holds
First. That IL was not a valid defence for
the company 10 show that it, income during
the time specified came from property which
was within Confederate territory. The
property. although within the Confederate
lines, belonged TO the company, and the in.
come derived from its Use was actually
paid out by the company In dividends to
stockholders, and 10 discharge the corpo-
rate debt for interest, and was therefore
liable TO tax. II would have been proper
for the court below 10 direct a verdict for
the United States. which was given in this
branch OF the case.
Second. Where il appears, as in the sec
ond branch Of this case. that al the
end Of the civil war, during which
interest has fallen in arrears and earn
ings have been substantially sus-
pended, the company in re0rganizing it,
affairs for future business either funds
It, past-due coupons in new issue OF
bonds or pays them from the proceeds Of
sales OF new bonds. Such facts constitute
a complete defence 10 the suit for the re-
coyeTy Of the tax charged on such pay
ment> Of interest.
Third. The compromise made between
the United States and the company in 1870
was. Is shown by the papers in evidence,
confined 10 the claims Of the United States
for taxes and penalties growing out Of in
terest which maiured between May, 1866,
and July. 1869.
The judgment Of the Circuit Court is re-
versed aud the cause reminded fer such
further proceeding. not inconsistent with
the opinion Of this court n justice may re-
quire. Opinion by Chief-Justice Waite.
