ANNA ON THE STAND
MISS DICKINSON GIVES EVIDENCE
IN HER DAMAGE CASE.
She Denies Drinking to Excess, Scores
Gould and Whitelaw Reid and
Calls DIR. Hillman a JackaI.

SCRANTON, Pa, April S.-After an inter-
val of week the action of Anna Dickin-
son to recover damages from those who
were responsible for her incarceration in
the Danville insane asylum, in February,
1891, was resumed before Judge w. w.
Acheson, in the United States Circuit
Court here to-day. The plaintiff was called
to the witness stand to give evidence in
rebuttal. Her first statement was that
everything she said in the letter she sent
to her brother, at Los Angeles. CAL, while
in the asylum, was absolutely true. She
denied that she had ever taken intoxicating
liquors in excess.
Tell the jury whether theras is any truth
in the statement regarding undue excite
ment on your part, testified to by DR.. Hill
man. said ex-Judge Daley
1T is a filthy lie," exclaimed Miss Dick
inson, manufactured for the manifest pur-
pose for which it was used in the court
ROOM"
Miss Dickinson then described her condi-
ton when suffering from sick headache,
for which DIR. Bronson was treating her.
He gave me relief" said the witness, ris-
ing to her feet, land out of the gratitude 1
felt for the relief afforded, / thanked God
and thinking the doctor a gentleman and
of the thankfulness / felt. In view of testi-
mony given by DR.. johnson on the point, /
ask God to forgive me for that act SOL
emnly concluded the witness, with dra-
matte gesture as she sat down.
Miss Dickinson said she not only gave
dresses to Susan B. Anthony, but Endorsed
q note for $1,000, which Miss Anthony de-
faulted in paying. She admitted having
sent, while in the Danville asylum; a. tele-
gram to Jay Gould asking for $,000900. II
sent this telegram she continued. ito
Gould, who backed Whitelaw Reid in
wrecking the New York Tribune when
Horace Greely was it's editor, and when
Horace Greely, sane man, was seized
at the instance of both and thrown into an
his Incarceration. That is why I sent the
telegram to Gould, in care of the Tribune,
instead of direct to Gould himself
As to why she refused to leave the
asylum, she said Il refused to leave the
asylum because jackal brought me there
and a jackal would take me away"
Major Warren-Dr Hillman is the jackal? :?
Miss Dickinson-He Is A jackal is a
foul beast Of prey. l am usually accurate

DIR. BUCHANAN MUST DIE.
Preparations Begun for the EIectro-
cution of the Wife Poisoner.

SING SING, n. Y. April S.-Dr. Buchan-
an. the wife poisoner, has become very
nervous and depressed since the Court of
Appeals affirmed his conviction. After this
decision was rendered Buchanan who had
been defended by lawyer Brooke, decided
to change his counsel, and employed Will
liam F. Howe for the purpose of carrying
his case to the United States Court. This
was the only hope. Buchanan was some
what surprised when he was notified re-
Gently by Mr.. Howe that he could not pos
sbly present his case in the United States
Court, at Washington, before April %. The
condemned man now realizes that there is
little chance for his execution being fur
ther postponed. Warden Sage is now going
on with preparations for the execution on
Monday, April p. He has received over
one hundred applications from medical men
and electrical experts and others who desire
to witness the execution. The law will not
permit the warden to grant over thirty of
the applications and these invitations will
be sent out next week. Not so much inter-
est has been shown in a condemned muir
derer at Sing Sing since Carlisle Harris
was executed two years ago.

JUSTICE WHITES OPINION.
He Thinks the Court Has Erred-Hfs
View of Direct Taxes.

Justice Whites dissent probably reflects,
in considerable measure, the views which
would have been promulgated had the court
sustained the law substantially whole
Concerning the form in which the cases
came before the court he said:
"Ffrst-The suit cannot be maintained.
because its real object Is TO enjoin the col
lection of a tax
"Second-By the text of the statute of
the United States the right to enjoin the
payment of a United States tax is denied
ssThird-By adjudications of this court
from the foundation of the government to
the present TINA ii has been held that
United States Court will not enioin the
payment of a tax due the United States,
and that the proper proceeding for a per-
son on whom such tax Is levied, and who
would assert his constitutional immunity
from it's exactions. IS TO pay the tax under
protest and sue for its recovery.
..Fourth and Fifth-The claim here is
that the relief sought is not an injunction
against the collection OF the tax. but an in
junction against its payment by the cor
poration. The theory upon which this con-
tention rests is that as the corporation Is
a trustee for the stockholder, the stock
holder is entitled to have IL enjoined from
making this payment. This contention is,
in my judgment, absolutely unsound. since
its premise lis that the stockholder, by pro-
ceeding against the corporation. can do by
indirection that which he cannot do di-
rectly.
.'sixth--The contention that because the
