The Arguments In the Case to Finish
Tomorrow Afternoon.
WASHINGTON, May z. - The supreme
court, with its full membership of nine
justices on the bench for the first time in
many months, began the rehearlng yester-
day OF the income tax suits. Justice
Howell jackson, of Tennessee, who has
been absent from Washington the greater
part Of the past year seeking restoration to
health, took his scat again with extraordi-
nary interest attached TO his presence,
since he assumes practically the position
OF umpire upon the vital question Of the
principle upon which the law is based
which divided the other eight justices into
two equal factions. Justice Jackson did
not appear to be feeble, but it was plainly
evidont that he was fur from being a well
man, and that only by strong effort
could he sit throughout the hearing.
Most conspicuous among the spectators
Tn court were Postmaster General Wilson,
the chairman Of the ways and means com
mittee that framed the tariff act; Repre-
sentative McMillin, of Tennessee chair
man of the sub committee which drafted
the income tax provisions, and ex-Speaker
Crisp, OF the house. The attendance of
lawyers and others having an unofficial
interest In the matter was noticeably
smaller than at the first argument of the
law, and after the usual contingent of
casual tourists had satisfied their curiosity
to obtain sight of the prominent men
the court room was not crowded.
But two arguments are to bo made for
each side, by Attorney General olney and
Assistant Attorney General Whitney for
the government, and by w. d. Guthrie
and Joseph Choate, Of New York, for the
appellants, Messrs. Hyde and Pollock.
Yesterday Mr.. Guthrie delivered his
speech and Mr. Whitney began his, which
he will finish today. AS the tims assigned
is five hours to each side the arguments
will bo closed tomorrow afternoon.

HARRISBURG, May THE house held
busy session last night, tho order Of bust
ness being senate bills on first reading
and local and special bills on second and
third reading. There was no disposition
on the part of the members to talk, and
the bills went through with practically no
opposition. Among bills passing second
reading were q large number providing
pensions for members of the National
Guard who were disabled at Homestead
during the memorable riots in 1892 and at
Gettysburg last August.
A resolution was introduced by Mr.
Focht, Of Union, that the house maintain
that mo foreign power should be permit
ted to raise its flag or land Its troops upon
this hemisphere, and therefore expresses
Its dlsapproval and disgust with the un-
American and unpatriotio course Of tho
national administration In permitting the
boisting and floating Of the British flag in
and the occupation by British troops OF
the republic of Nicaragua" Objection
was made to the resolution and no further
action upon 1t was taken.
In the senate Mr.. Lands, Of Lancaster,
offered a resolution, which was adopted,
condemning the Cleveland administration
for its course with regard to the British
interference in the republic of Nicaragua.
A resolution was adopted to drop from the
calendar bills postponed for the present"
after this week.
Among bills passed finally were; Re.
moving the restriction in the law prohib.
iting bank stockholders from being no.
taries public; to provide for the filling of
vacancies In the Offices of burgess and
constable; house bill to repeal the act to
erect the village Of Darby, Delaware coun-

Another Appeal Against sna,n.

WASHINGTON, May 7.-The case of Man
uel Fuentes, the correspondent Of the New
York World, who was arrested near San
tiago, Cuba on n charge OF aiding the rev.
olutionists, has been laid before the state
department, with request that full in
quiry be made to disclose the facts, and
that proper protection be meanwhile ex-
tended to Fuentes. The state department
will probably instruct our representatives
In Cuba to see that Fuentes' case is re-
moved from the military courts to the
civil tribunals. 1t is contended that the
charge against Fuentes, which is in sub
stance that he endeavored to sell arms to
the insurgents, is without foundation, and
In view of the summary methods of Span
ish courts martial 1t is doomed necessary
to secure speedy action.

HARRISBURG, May 7,-The members of
the board of pardons have been verbally
notified that the friends Of John Bardsley,
the defaulting ex-city treasurer of Phila-
delphia, will soop make formal applica-
tion for his pardon. The application,
which will probably be presented at the
next meeting Of the board, is said to have
the Endorsement Of many prominent Phil
adelphians, chief among whom is ex-Mag-
istrate Durham. The grounds for the APP
plication will be that Bardsley was made
n criminal by circumstances rather than
by inclination; that he was a public spir-
tied citizen; that all the money taken by
him has been recovered, and finally that
he has been sufficiently punished for his
ofIense.

ing has begun in Granada, Nicaragua
Disorder Is reported from Leon also.
Word comes from there that the followers
of Ortiz, zerula and Macherro have united
to mako war on zelaya. The Honduran
troops concentrated ut Cape Gracias will
remain there, as 1t is feared that the
threatened outbreak on the Mosquito res
ervation may extend here. The troops at
Amalpa will be distributed along the
coast. General Bonilla will take 1000
men and go to President Zolaya's aid If
requested. The evacuation Of Corinto and
the sailing of the British ships is an
nounced. ".-...-...-
WASHINGTON May 7.-Dr. Guzman, the
Nicaraguan minister, has not yet been ad-
vised of the reported revolution in Mica
ragua He has expected that the sailing
of the British feet would have quieting
effect on public sentiment. This expec-
tation was strengthened when word came
that Vice Admiral Stephenson fired q
salute to the Nicaraguan flag when it was
uEhih hOlbbou over SOTlulO. MS COuTtcby
was regarded as doing much to heal the
wounds made by the incident. DR.. Guz-
man last official cable said simply, "Ships
sailed"
In other quarters the fact that the revo-
luton Is along the east shore is regarded
as significant. This Is the Mosquito re-
gion, in which British influence has long
been dominant, and which has recently
been created a state under the name Of
Zelaya.
1t has been apprehended by Central
American diplomats that If the Mosquito
natives made trouble 1t would afford op-
portunity for further British intervention.
One of the best posted diplomats from that
section says he considers it inevitable that
the Mosquito natives will rebel and at
tempt to restore Chief Clarence to the
throne. This would be denial Of Mica
raguas sovereignty over the new state of
Zelaya, and in the judgment of this diplo-
mat Great Britain would support Clar-
