1t Vacated Is Denied.

Justice Truax, of the Supreme Court,
denied to-day the motion of James H..
Rodgers, former proprietor of the Hotel
Castleton, to vacate an attachment
which Edward Regensberg obtained
against him in an action to recover a
bill for goods sold for the use of the no.
tel. The attachment was granted on an
affidavit of Abraham Zipser to the effect
that James II. Rodgers had moved a
truckload of liquors from the hotel to II
Mott street stable to defraud creditors.
Rodgers denied this and says the
liquors We're not properly part of
the hotel effects. He claims the liquors
were removed at the instance of g. e..
Peters, the steward. Peters says tho
liquors were taken there at the request
OF Regensberg. who said he had a man

The defeat Of yesterday Is far from
total. The new Tariff bill includes an in
come tax of two per cent. on incomes
above $4,000. and 1t Is safe to assert
that the income tax is here to stay. 1t
represents the principle that tax
alton should be adjusted in proportion 10
the ability to pay, and in this respect
1t differs essentially from the taxing
OF food or any of the necessaries of
