would be good time to talk up the

II is surely time for Emmett to emerge
from the condition of a struggling sage.

Of the important towns Of Canyon coun-

made In this direction last summer but
the near apl 'ach Of dog-days seemed IA

ance Of John Carter, who keeps hotel
and looks after the wants of the inner
man. We stepped into harness and
shoe shop rum by Lewis n Langroise and
found our old friend Addie Lewis, form
erly Of this place, stitching away at his
work. These boys have nice business

pleased to hear Of his prosperity. Addie

WASHINGTON, Feb. 15-The Court of
Appeals of the District of Columbia to-day
affirmed the Judgment of the lower court.
refusing to grant John G. Moore, OF New
York, an injunction to restrain Internal
Revenue Commissioner Miller from proceed
ing to collect the income tax from the
complainant. Counsel for Mr.. Moore inn
mediately noted an appeal 10
the United States Supreme Court,
and the matter probably will be
brought to the attention of the court of
last resort soon after 1t reconvenes next
month Chief Justice Alvey, who delivered
the opinion of the Court of Appeals to-day,
took notice of statement by counsel made
during the hearing that early decision
was desired in order to get final judicial
staten t;,nsen snpreme U court. n,s and % said: ID tue
With that object in view, there can be
no good reason or useful purpose subserved
by any elaborate consideration by this court
of the questions presented by the bill and
demurrer. Some of the questions raised
ment and consideration. if presented under
proper conditions. But in this case, and as
now presented. We do not perceive that
there is any good ground or cause shown
for an Injunction to restrain the Cmms-
sioner of Internal Revenue from proceeding
with the work of his bureau in respect to
the assessment and collection of the income
tax under the act OF Congress OF 1891. The
court Is asked to take cognizance of and
brought into existence to constitute the
foundation for the exercise of jurisdiction,
even Supposing the court competent to eX-
tend relief by Injunction, notwithstanding
the positive prohibitory terms of the statute
embodied in Section 1924 of the Revised
Statutes OF the United States, which de-
clare that No suit for the purpose Of
straining the assessment collection of any
tax shall be maintained In any court
The learned justice below has considered
this case at length and decided all the ques-
tions attempted to be raised by it, and he
has reached the conclusion that there
not sufficient ground presented to justify
the exercise of the restraining power of
court of equity in any aspect of the case.
And. without considering and deciding the
main questions presented by the bill, we
concur in the conclusion by the justice be-
low that there is no sufficient cause alleged
or shown for the extraordinary remedy by
injunction. and. therefore, the decree dis
missing the bill should be affirmed, and 1t
is so ordered

BROOKLYN, Feb. 1.-THE grand jury
this morning presented indictments against
Benjamin Norton president of the Atlantic
Railway Company, and superintendent Dan
lei Quinn. charging them with a violation of
the ten-hour law. The indictments were
found on the testimony of James Dwyer and
jeremiah Desmond, both conductors, who al
lege that two days prior to the beginning OF
the strike they had been obliged to work
more than ten hours within the twelve hours
as specified by the law. Judge Moore in
sisted that defendants should be present,
and adjourned the matter of fixing the bail
until tomorrow, when counsel was notified
to have both Mr.. Norton and Quinn in
court. The offensc with which they are
charged is punishable with a fine of $500. one
years Imprisonment. both. The grand

Guilty was that the companies mad failed
TO put into prastice what Is known the
tcn.hour law the men being required 10
work over ten hours a day and in some
instances as long as eleven hours and
twenty to forty-five minutes, while the law
specified that they should be required 10
work but ten hours within twelve coissec-
utive hours. Mr.. Connolly said he did not
consider that the employees had struck. but
that the situation had been forced upon
them by the action of the companies IN
the locking out OF between TWO hundred
and three hundred of the electrical workmen
upon their lines on their refusal TO take
the places OF the motornen and conductors.
Another cause WAS that the companies

NEW YORK, Feb. 15.-Princess Paulira,
who arrived in New York on Dec. % last,
and who since that time has been the OBJ
ject of great interest to thousands in this
city, died to-day. Princess Paulina was
born in Holland in 1876. and during the past
nine years has been seen and fondled by
nearly all the kings and queens of Europe.
She was brought to this country under a
two years contract by Manager +. r.
Proctor. The Princess was exactly seven

one-half pounds. Two weeks before her
arrival she had an attack of the grip and

covered, and on Jan. 20 gave a special re-
ception, attended by nearly a hundred we'll
known physicians and surgeons. She wa.,
taken Ill again a week ago, and was pro-

INCOME TAX RETURNS.

COLLECTORS hcceiNxug money IN Adj
vance of the Prescribed Time.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-Collectors of in
ternal revenue throughout the country have
already begun to receive returns under the
income tax law, and in a number of in
stances the cash has accompanied the re-
turn. Inasmuch as the tax is not required
10 be paid before July l next. several coll
lectors have asked to be instructed as to
whether they could accept the payment at
this time. To these inquiries Commissioner
Miller has replied that the tax might be
received at any time, provided the col
lector is satisfied that the return is correct.
There is a possibility that the time for
making final returns to the internal rev.
enue officers of answers to the income tax
queries may not be extended, noswithstand-
Ing that both houses of Congress have
passed a resolution postponing the day from
March L TO April Il. Senator Hill is re-
sponsible for the change of policy which
may take place regarding the resolution,
for he succeeded in amending II in the Sem
ate by making stipulation that certain
should be stricken from the blanks. CoEn-
missioner Miller, OF the Internal Revenue
Bureau. was at the House to-day IN COM
sultation with Chairman Wilson, of the
ways. and means committee, and other
members of the House. AIR. Miller says
Hill has done away with arc necessary to
be answered to obtain the full list OF cifi-
xens who are taxable, and are so vital TO
the success OF the collection OF the income
tax that he would rather have the resolu-
ton defeated and the effort to secure an ex-
