TIE LICENSE LAW.
The Commercial Agen is Claim That 1t Is
ImnnIIn Il IN MliriLh-

invalid as ITO Them.
Tho case of tho MI licensed commercial
agents came up befors Justice Wylic last
Saturday in the criminal court in the test
case OF Livingston j. Young, charged with
being q commercial agent without license.
Assistant District Attorney James L. Pad
gctt appeared for the District of Columbia
and Messrs T. +. Milor and II. r. Taggert
for the defendant. Tho point involved was
as to what classes Of persons arc liable under
the law imposing q tax upon commercial
agents and which defined commercial agents
TO be persons engaged in the business Of sell
ing and offering for sale goods, wares aud
merchandise by sample, cats oguc, aud other
wise. IL was commended, Gn behalf Of the
defendant, that tho law of taxation required
that tho tax imposed should be uniform and
equal. and operate alike upon all persons
engaged in doing the particular business
taxed that selling goods and wares and
merchandise by card, samples &C., constituted
u business which IL was pi opcr to tax, and
that tho tax ought to be le We'd indiscrimi-
natoly upon all persons engai, cd in 80 selling,
whether they sold as agents or principals,
and that the right did not exist to contino
the tax specially to those who were selling as
agent for others; that a tax Of this kind was
not a tax on tho occupation, but "a tax upon u
q
agents, engaged in the occupl ton; that to bo
uniform, equal and valid it ought to
include and provide for the imposition
of the tax specified upon all persons whose
occupation was to bo testcd by tho question as
to whether they sold by card sample, or
| certificate, und that If there were any class
or classes of persons SO engaged aud who
were, under the terms Of tho law, exempt
from the tax that tho discrimination made
the act void.
Reference was made to tho fact that out of
over LOO persons engaged in this district
| last year in selling by card sample, and
catalogue this tax was exacted from about
| eighty.
1t was also contenjled that inasmuch rs n
section of the act subsequent to the ono
imposing tho tax on commercial agents
provided that the word dealers, as used in the
| act, should DO held to signify and Include
every person engaged in selling or Offering
for sale, by sample, catalogue, or otherwise"
that commercial agents were declared by the
| act itself to be- dealers and inasmuch as tho
section of the liceIiBe act which imposed q tax
on dealers in merchandise was repealed by
the act OF July II, 1876 that the license tax
us such. provided for commercial agents, was
repealed by it,
Judge Wylie certified tho case to tho
general term To pasyupon, where the decision
viii be final.

An Effort Made, for Peculiar Reasons, 10
Save EIis Neck.
An effort is being made to secure the pardon
or Communication of the sentence in the case
of Edward Bricc, convicted of tho murder of
Peter Washington and sentenced TO be hung
within the walls of tho Jail between the hours
of and 10 o'clock n. m. on the first Friday
after the adjournment of the next term of
the court in general term, which will DO
about tho first of noNt month. 1t will be
remembered that the deceased, Peter Wash
ington, was a cook and the condemned man.
Edward BrCe, waiter at tho restaurant
connected with the Baltimore and
Potomac railroad depot, and that q
quarrel arose between them about serving
an order on tho morning of tho 18th
of last February. Brico charging that
on account of tho slowness Of Washington
in filling tho order he lost two customers.
They adjourned 10 the yard to SEQ which was
the bettor man of the two and as Washington
won't out Bricc pulled n long, thin bread
knife, with razor edge, from under his coat,
plunged IL into Washington S abdomen, and
tho latter died almost instantly Brice was
tried last March, convicted, and sentenced to
DO hung. Tho circumstances which tended
to bring about tho homicide IL seems have
led the persons who gayO the order in the
restaurant to believe that they wero inno-
CuuIiy Instrumental IN causing tue uoaIn OF
Washington. With this feeling ever present
aud weighing upon their minds exertion is
being made to save tho criminals life, if not
to obtain his liberty.
On tho morning oil tho murder Mrs. Gen.
Myers was to meet some friends at tho depot,
and they, whilo waiting her coming. went to
get breakfast, aud it was the serving of their
order that was delayed.
Mrs. Myers, with others, thinking this was
the origin of tho terrible tragedy which en-
sued, has been making an effort to secure
q reduction Of tho punishment. The papers
in the case were, last week, transmitted to
District Attorney Worthington, who returned
them with recommendation that the law be
permitted to take its course. Upon this
action being laid before tho President he
declined to Interfere, and it is now likely
that Brice will DO hung, although another
effort is to be made to secure executive elem
gncy in tho case
