Released from Back Taxes.

Nashville Banner.
Comptroller Allen today receiveda
letter from T. B. ROddy, deputy
trustee of Grundy county, saying
that the county court had ordered
the trustee to release the Tennessee
Coal, Iron & Railroad Company from
all back taxes on the payment of
$4,000. In answer to a question Mr..
Allen said that as he understood the
law the county court had no authori-
ty for such action. The supreme
court at Jackson decided that a coun-
ty court had no power but that del
egated by the, legislature. "In this
matter, though" said Mr.. Allen,

Our readers have doubtless often
noticed that Hoods Sarsaparilla is
well spoken of in the newspapers.
The press is quick to recognize merit,
and does not hesitate to give praise
where it is due. The following is
from the Babtist Weekly, a leading
religious paper;
advertising may bring an article
prominently before the public, but
no advertising can long help it if it
has not real merit. Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla is well advertised; but the best
proof of its value is that so many per-
sons use it on the recommendations
of friends who have proved its pecu-
liar virtues"

He Makes Brilliant Argument for
the ParnelliteS.

the Parnellites.
LONDON, April 12.-Sir Charles Russell
concluded his speech in defense of the Par
nellites before the Parnell commission this
morning. He undertook to show that the mon
ey Parnell gave Byrne, which the prosecution
alleged was given for the purpose Of enab-
ling Byrne to escape, was meant by Parnell
to be used for the ordinary purposes of the
league, and that Parnell did not know that
Byrne was in peril of arrest. The court,
Sir Charles SAID, in concluding his speech,
was retrying the history of the
irish revolution. He asked that
fair and generous consideration be given it
If prosperity was returning to Ireland,
thanks be to God. But affairs were un-
healthy in country where the people con-
sidered imprisoned members of the house OF
commons heros and martyrs. Sir Charles
declared he did not speak merely as an
advocate of the accused members of
the commons, but for the land of his
birth, and he believed in the best interests
tended to be curse, had been a blessing.
1t had been designed for the purpose of ruin
ing one man, but had proved the means of
his vindication.
There was sensation in the court room
when Sir Charles concluded his speech 1t
is the general opinion that he never
spoke better. When he had fin
shed Presiding Justice Hunnen passed
a note to him in which he said: II Congratu
late you. Your speech was great one and
worthy of great OCCASION" Upon the con
clusion of to-day's proceedings court ad-
iourned until April 80.

NEW YoRK, April l2.-[Special Telegram
to The BEE. l--STooKs-The action IN the
stocks at the opening to-day was just the
opposite Of the preceding days. There was
q squirt of activity, but first prices were Il
TO M lower than at the close yesterday.
This loss was followed by insignificant de-
clines the first half hour, while later there
was change Of feeling and Asufiiclent reac-
tion TO put prices at II a. m. about as at the
opening In the early decline San Francisco
and Reading suffered the most, losing &c
each from the opening. The feature of the
morning was another bulge of sc in Sugar
Trust, which was rs quickly lost. The only
shares on the list showing fair animation the
first hour were Atchson, Union Pacific,
Reading and Changers. The firm feeling
which was noticeable at II o'clock held until
q better buying movement resulted in O
strong upward tendency throughout the list,
the advances amounting to u per cent in
many active securities. While Rock Island
and Burlington led the list with gains Of lA
and Ia respectively, ST. Paul and Atchison
were also well advanced. There was little
reaction from the best figures at noon, with
the market active and firm. The strength
shown In stocks about noon did not hold, and
later there was q general letting down of
