THE CERTIFICATE VOID.
An Interesting Opinion-Neglect Of the Col
Iector to Comply with the Law.

An Interesting Opinion-Neglect Of the Col
1ector TO Comply With the Law.
An interesting case was the subjectmatter Of
an opinion rendered by Assistant Attorney
Thomas today. Some days ago Mr.. ID. E.
certificates under the act of June 2, 1890, to
redeem tax lien certificates which he
claims were rendered void by the
omission Of the collector Of taxes
to notify the recorder Of deeds Of the sale of
lienholder. The assistant attorney for the Dis
triet, In his opinion, says that the additional
points referred to him for opinion are. first
that the failure Of the collector to file with
the recorder Of deeds a report Of the tax sale
invalidated the sale and entitled Mr. Callaghan's
client to a refund OF the amount with interest
ct 6 per cent; and second, il the client is
not entitled to a refund under section
15e Of the Revised Statutes then he 10 under
section 5 Of the act of the District assembly. Mr.
Thomas says further that he does not think
section 153 of the Revised Statutes applies to Mr.
Callsghan's case and that he has never had any
doubt but that the certificate in the case for
this reason is void, as it has been repeatedly so
held. Referring TO the second point, he
says the trouble Ia not that there was any error
or defect in the tax SALE but that the collector,
by emitting 70 file with the recorder Of deeds
the report required by ssctiep IT'S Of
the District Revised 60thtks, failed
to give effect to the sale. One Of the
duties Of the collector Of taxes, be ssys ie that
he shall within ten days after any sale file with
the recorder Of deeds a certified report Of such
sale. II he neglects to do this he Is guilty of q
breach Of duty and any one injured may sue
his official bond He, therefore, holds that the
certificate is not redeemable under the act Of
June, 1880.

GONE TO MONTREAL.

A Newspaper That Was Driven From New
York by the Postal Authorities.
Some weeks ago monthly newspaper pub
lished in New York city was declared BY the
postal authorities to be unavailable and was
refused admission to the mails The ground
Of the objection was based on the character of
the news published, which related entirely
to certain class of foreign bonds
The redemption date Of the bonds, it seems, il
determined by a drawing, and in addition
there is drawing to ascertain what holder Of
the bonds to be redeemed at a certain time is
to receive the premium. This latter, in some
cases. amounts to q considerable sum. The
proprietors Of the paper, e. H. Horner
& Co., were arrested, charged with
sending the paper to parties in Illinois, and
the case was heard in New York and carried on
appeal to the supreme court Of the state, where
it Is now awaiting hearing. In the meantime
the postal authorities continued to throw the
paper out of the mails, and the consequence was
that the proprietors found it impossible to carry
on their business. The publication of the paper
ceased, but recently Judge Tyner. tho assistant
attorney general for the Post Office Depart-
ment, received from Montreal Canada, a news
paper published in that city which is in all re-
spects similar to the suspended New York news
paper, with the exception that the name has
been changed.
Judge Tyner concludes that the proprietors
have removed their establishment to Montreal
and have begun the publication Of the paper
there. sending it ont to their usual list OF sub
scribers in this country. Postal employees.
however, have been instructed to hold up ali
copies OF this paper found in the mails, % that
il the order is carried out the removal to Mon
treal will not be Of much advantage judge
Tyner says that this firm has been doing almost
as large business as the Louisiana lottery.
The point raised by the defense before
the New York supreme court is
whether that clause in the law which makes
an offense of mailing lottery matter continuous,
SO that prosecution can be made either at the
place Of sending the matter or where il Is re-
ceived, il constitutional.
The constitutionslity Of another section of
the anti-lottcry law is soon TO be tested in
case that win come up before the United States
Supreme Court next month. Ii Is ON appeal
from New Orleans court and involves the
constitutionality Of the clause which prohibits
the transmission through the mails of news
papers containing lottery advertisements.

the Navy Department had it in view that the
