Defaulting south Dakota Treasurer
Said to BE in Indiana.

Charlottesville, Ind, special: 1t is prob
able that w. w. Taylor, the defaulting
Treasurer of South Dakota, has beer
located here. The authorities of that state
are on their way to Charlottesville at the
instance of j. u. Overton, justice of the
peace, e%N-county superintendent and a
prominent citizen. Ovcrton claims that he
has Taylor located beyond u doubt and
is in no way tronblcd about his escape,
as he is dangerously i'll, much of the
time unconscious. OvertUn first notified
the South Dakota authorities last Sunday,
and a day or W after received word that
Attorney General and United States Mar
shal would arrive here soon. OvertOn's
alleged knowledge did not leak out until
recently, when official and press kilograms
began 10 pour in. OvcrtOn has two others
associated with him in the find. lie as,
serts that he learned of Taylor's where
abouts by the nearest accident and
that lie is absolutely sure of his
game. Beyond explaining that the default

say nothing. Taylor was raised i'll Lafay-
cite, twenty miles from here, and has
scores of relatives in Montgomery County.

California Hotel. It is said that his mis-
sion 10 San Francisco is to buy arms and
ammunition for the revolutionists in the
South American republic. Mr.. Saeres
talked freely on the revolution. 1.-THE rev.
olution has now been in progress since
April" he said, "and when 1 left 1t was
reaching an alarming state. The revolu-
t1onists have grown from twenty-fiv or
thirty to between 1900 and 5000 and they
are now planning to take Lima, the capi-
tai. AT its inception the revolution was
led by a planter named Scminareo and was
designed to overthrow the Government of
General Andres a. Cacercs. Scminareo
gathered twenty-five or thirty men around
him and they captured the train running
between Port I'ayta and the city of Piura.
The conductor of the train, an American
named Carney, was the first man killed.
The rebels had the road for several weeks
and used 1t as a means of forcing the
friends of the Government to furnish them
with means to purchase arms and ammu-
milton.
1.-The revolutiOnists are now headed by
General Pierola, a famous fighter and an
ex-President of the republic, who wants to
secure control of the affairs of the Govern
mcnt. just how the revolution will turn
out it is difficult to say. Skirmishes be-
tween the troops arc frequent, but the Cow
crnment forces still maintain their own.
The future for President Caceres is not as
bright, however, as it might be. The rev.
olutionists are growing in number"

MEXICO WON'T YIELD AN INCH.
Diaz Informs Guatemala That She

Must Give In or Fight.
City of Mexico special: After a very
stormy Cabinet meeting President Diaz
notified Guatemala, through its minister,
that he would not conccde one iota, and
that Guatemala would have to give in te
MeXic0's demand or suffer the conse.
quences. Other Central American repre-.
sentatives have made a statement to Presi-
dent Diaz that they understood Mexico was
trying to grasp Central American territory
President Diaz denied this, but asserted
that Mexico would have her rights, that
the boundary lines should be as Mexico
claims, and that Mexico had all the terri
tory she needed. 1t looks rs if the other
Central American Republics were behind
Guatemala.
All the Government students are march,
ing the streets with bands, shouting ..viva
Mexico" "viya Diaz'' and son to Guatc-
mala.' They are now in front of the pal
ace 12.0O to $4,000 strong clamoring fol-
war and pledging their support to Presi-
dent Diaz. They are mainly composed OF
students of the law and mining and medi-
cal schools. Mexico has been preparing
for war for some time and has about 2,OOG
troops on the border. All the officers who
have not been on active duty have been
notified to report for marching orders.
president Diaz made a speech to the pa
rading students and others, numbering
$4,000 to 10000, in front of the palace, stat
ing that he would not recedc from Mex
ico's just rights.

restored, and it will not be SO long as the
late employees of the traction company
have hope of forcing themselves back into
the positions they held twelve days ago.
To these there was a ray of light in the de-
cision handed down by Justice Gaynor, of
the Supreme Court of Queens County.
in the matter of the application for a writ
of mandamus to compel the company to
operate its lines in a manner to meet the
requirements Of the public. In the Opin-'
ion of Judge Gaynor the corporation is
held to be in default of its obligations
to the public, incurred by the accept.
Iance of the franchise for q specific pur-
pose. 1t is placed under the imputa-'
'tioG Of having more regard for the profits
of the shareholders than for the cOnven-
fence of the citizens, and it is declared to
be the cOmpany's duty to a its cars at
whatever expense may he necessary. The
court will hear counsel upon the question
whether the writ shall be peremptory or
alternative, or in other words, whether
the company shall be required
to ..engage a full complement ot
operatives regardless of the ques-
tons of wages and hours Of labor or
whether it shall be directed to do the
best it can under the circumstances.
To make the writ alternative, it will
be seen, will be to leave affairs prac-
tically as they are. Should it he made
mandatory an appeal will be taken by the
defendant company. With these facts in
view it may be said that the victory the
strikers have won is Fabian in character.

ONE MAN rArALLY sBof.
First Killing in the Great Brooklyn
Car Strike. ,

Brooklyn, N. Y, special: The first fatal
encounter of the great strike took place.,
when in an encounter with a few boys at
the Halsey Street station Of the Brooklyn
City Railroad Company, a vollcy was fired
by the militia. Henry Ahness of New
York City was fatally shot. A muskct
ball entered his mouth and passed through
his head Another man whose name ID
Andrews was wounded in the arm. The
shooting had the instant effect of dispers.
ing the mob.
The nintl, day OF the ticup has closed
without bringing material change in the
situation. 1t has been a day of alarming
rumors, which, fortunately, proved to have
slight or tao foundation. There were be-
tween daybreak and nightfall numerous
brushes between the police and
the militia on the one side
and the strikers, or their head
strong, defying sympathizers with their
cause on the other. The linemen's strike,
which was to have tied up the trolley lines
more effectually than had been done by tho
strike of motOrmen, conductors and other
employees, was called OFF before it was fair
ly on, and later in the day the mandate of
Master Workman Connolly was promul-
gated, calling upon the lincmcn to again
abandon their situations. What influenced
the strike managers TO call the linemen's
strike Off thus quickly, and to order it on
again annot he told now. The
reason assigned for the latter act is palpa-
bly, but a DreteXt, The effect of the reserve
which the strikers have compared to the
playing of a high trump card, remains to
be demonstrated.

INCOME TAX CASE DISMISSED.
Ruling in That Case Brought In the
District of Columbia.

~ u .
District of Columbia.
Washington special: The petition of
John e. Moore for a mandamus against
Internal Revenue Collector Miller to pre-
vent the collection of the income tax was
overruled by Judge hagncr in the district
court. 1t will be appealed to the United
States Supreme Court to test the constitu-
,tionality of the income tax law.
Judge Hagner declared at the outset,
that the objections that the tax is un-
wise and restricts thrift and industry, that
its operation must necessarily he inquisl-
torial, etc., were not under the jurisdiction
OF the court. The alleged duplication of a
tax, it is not claimed would be possible en-
cept as to dividends declared during the
calendar year 1894, and it was presumed
that the treasury officials would enforce the
provision in such a way as to prevent a
harsh construction of the law, and that an
arrangement of the corporations to pay the
tax before July, 1895, would he accepted as
relieving the shareholders. Vexatious as
duplication may be, it is not possible prac-
tically to avoid it. That some property
holders are fortunate enough to possess
sions exceeding the excepted amount is no
ground for i%nvalidating the tax law under
which the taxes are levied.
AS to the allegation that no adequate
remedy exists by which to recover ..the
taxes, if paid to the collector, the court de-
clares that such a remedy does exist, even
though there be no special statute under
which to proceed. Instances are cited
where income taxes have been recovered
where illegally collected.
The contention of the defendants that
the courts are without authority to grant
injunctions in cases of such character is
sustained. a decree therefore issued dis
missing the hill wifi costs.

inside of the great defalcation. So far the

was short. He, however, believed the
shortage would be made up before the time
for turning over the state money and con-

it. He stated his belief that Taylor had
