Snch Tribunal as the Supreme Court
Surprises BrftOsss.

Surprises BritOsas.
LONDON, ENG, April 9.-The Globe
this afternoon, referring to the decision OF
the Supreme Court of the United States as
to the constitutionality of the income tax,
says: EVERY man in this country will re-
greet there is no Supreme Court of the
American variety here. Never in all the
long history of the English bench have
they scared to the heights of liberty
reached by the American judges yester-
day. 1t is quite impossible to establish
such a tribunal here"
The st. James Gazette comments on the
Supreme Court decision in similar strain
and adds: "No one has suggested that
this august tribunal can be bribed in a
manner familiar to litigants in some of the
inferior courts of the Union. Still it is
significant that the politics of the various
Judges are carefully mentioned in the dis
patches"

OF MAJOR WHAM.
1t Is Somewhat Aitigated by the
President.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April 9.-The
President has disposed of case that has
been pending for many months in acting
upon the record of court-martial, held at
Vancouver Barracks, Washington, which
sentenced Major Joseph w. Wham, pay
master in the army, to dismissal for failure
to pay his debts. The President mitigated
the sentence to suspension, on half pay,
from rank and duty and all privileges
until January, 1904 his name to be placed
at the foot of the list in the pay depart
ment. The date mentioned is that upon
which Major Wham will retire, so that he
can never again see active service, and he
will drop from No. 9 to No. % in his rank,
so there will be no possibility of his own
promotion, nor can he retard the promo
ton OF majors who may enter the grade
hereafter.

DIXON COMPANY'S PLANS.
Does Not Operate Garbage Plants, but
Wants to Sell One to the City.


The garbage committee had confer
ence yesterday morning with a representa-
tive of the Dixon Sanitary Company, of
Findlay, O., in regard to a proposition for
a garbage plant. This company does not
operate plants, but simply builds them. It's
plan is to secure contract with a city to
put in plant and operate it for sixty or
ninety days, at the end of which time, if
the plant has proved satisfactory it is to
be bought by the city at a price previously
agreed upon. The representative of the
company says the plant viii dispose of
garbage in quantities such as this city pro-
duces at about s cents ton, and if night
soil and dead animals be included the cost
would not average more than 10 cents a
ton, which Mayor Denny roughly estimates
would make the cost to this city SIS a day,
basng his estimate one hundred ions
daily.
The representative of the company. made
proposition to the city, but will wait
and the outcome of the conference with
the agent of the American Reduction
Company next Tuesday. If that company
does not make suitable proposition the
Dixon company will then make the city
an offer, which, however. could hardly be
accepted, as it would involve the purchase
by the city of the present plant of the
desiccating company at $1,000 This is
what the city is trying to avoid.

THE UNDERGROUND ORDINANCE.
City Attorney Thinks 1t Will stand
Considerable Revision.

city Attorney Thinks 1t Will stand
Considerable Revision.
The Board OF Public Works yesterday held
short conference with City Attorney
Scott relative to the proposed ordinance
which will require all electric light, tele-
phone and telegraph wires TO be laid under
ground The committee on railroads from
the City Council was present during the con-
ference. The contemplated ordinance was
discussed informally There was IMAM
unity of opinion among the members of the
board and Council committee that the
wires should be put under ground. The
Board of Works desires to settle the ques-
ton before permitting the entrance to the
city of another telephone company. Should
the proposed ordinance become a law, all
wires inside the territory bounded by East,
West, North and South streets will have
to come down. The underground system will
also include these streets. City Attorney
Scott said that he had looked over the ordi-
nance prepared and thought 1t would re-
quire considerable revision before 1t could
be submitted to the Council. There. seemed
to be some confusion as to whether the
power to enforce the Underground system
lay with the board or the Council.
Yesterday the Board of Works sent out a
large number of letters to companies inter-
ested in different telephones asking them
to consider the opportunity to bid for a
franchise in this city. They were all in
formed that If they desired to do so an
opportunity would be given them to place
two instruments in the courthouse basement
for the inspection of the board and patrons
in the city. Letters were also addressed to
many firms supposed ito know something
about underground conduits, asking for in
formation, in a general way. about the
best system to employ in this city. 1t is
the intention of the Board of Works to
to telephones and conduits before granting
any franchise.

OLD MEDICAL COLLEGE SUIT.
A Receivership, of Which Few Have
Ever Heard. BObs Up.

Through the medium of suit filed in the
Superior Court yesterday the students and
faculty of the Medical College of Indiana
were apprised of the existence of re-
ceiver at the head of the concern. Joseph
Bristow, receiver of the college, began
an action against Joseph Marsee, A. w.
Brayton, G. l.. Curtis, Edward r. Hodges,
F. w. Hays, r. r. Morrison, w. N. WISH
ard ]. H. Taylor, d. A. Thompson, L. H.
Dunnng and Henry Jameson The COM
plant shows that the plaintiff was ap-
pointed receiver of the Medical College Of
Indiana Oct ]. 1891. The suit is brought to
recover the assets which the plaintiff AYERS
were in the hands of the defendants at the
time of his appointment. He wants a judg-
ment for $4,000.
Byron X. Elliott, attorney for the col
lege says that he never heard of the re-
ownership set out by Bristow. Attorney
Daily, who represents the plaintiff, Brstow,
says that the present medical college is not
involved in the suit. The claim of his
client grows out of suit brought a long
time ago by Drs. Comingor and Fletcher.
They sued the trustees, who turned over
the property of the ola college to the new.
1t is alleged that the step was taken with
out due consideration.
