BICYCLE LAMPS,
They Must Now BE Lighted Mt Sum

They Must Now BE Lighted Mt Sun.
down.
The matter Of the hour for lighting BIZ
cycle lamps was officially brought to the
attention of the District Commissioners
this morning. AT present the police regu-
latons are to The effect that the lamps
must be lighted promptly at sundown, but
the understan ding of the Commissioners
seems to be that the regulation should not
be enforced to the letter. but the police
should use some discretion and not make
trouble for riders unless it is so dark that
lamps are actually necessary. Cyclers,
however feel that the police 90 not al
ways use Judgment in the matter, and the
result of the matter will probably be that
the Commissioners will make a formal
change il the regulation, fixing later and
more reasonable hour.
At the board meeting this morning II was
stated that The Star would hereafter pub
lish the exact hour at which lamps must
be in evidence each evening, and de-
ciSion was asked from the Commissioners
on the point in question. The duration Of
twilight Is fixed time. and the suggestion
was made that the time of the expiratio
Of twilight should be adopted. Commits
sioners Truesdell and Powell both express
time, but Maj. Powell thought that the end
of twilight would make it too late, espe-
cially on cloudy evenings. In providing for
the lighting of streets the hour of sundown
Is not taken into consideration, but only
the duration of twilight and he thought
that the same should apply to bicycle
lamps. Maj. Powell said that he was in
favcr of fixing the time at thirty minutes
before the expiration of twilight. The
Commissioners decided, however that until
formal action is taken in the matter 1t
would be necessary to publish sundown as
the time.

THE EDGEWOOD PROPERTY,
What Mr.. Edison Snys in Regard to
Mrs. Chase's Statement.

What MIR. Edison Snys in Regard to
Mrs. Chase's Statement.
Mrs Kate Chase. daughter of the late
chief justice of the United States, has
made public statement in New York city,
announcing that she has been forced to
leave her home at Edgewood, in the Dis
tr:ct. which is now in the hands of the
Washington Loan ard Trust Company of
this city. She states that the work of rais-
irg the fund for the repurchase of the
estate from the trust company has not yet
been completed, and that she is still en-
gagged in that enterprise. Accompanying
the statement We're intimat tions that the
trust company had forced her to leave her
home withtut consideration for her condi-
ton or her feelings. ard publication is
made of litter from the company to her
attorneys giving permission to store some
of her furniture at Edgewcod, but insist
ing that the property be vacated by tho in
mates.
Mr. john Joy Edison, president of the
Washington Loan and Trust Company,
said to a Star reporter today that he did
rot care to enter into any controversy
with Mrs. Cha Sc, for whom ne had the
kindest feelings.
Mrs. Chase, in her unfortunate financial
situation" he said, deserves and should
receive the sympathy and substantial aid
OF all. Her efforts to save her home and
the home of her father, who rendered such
valuable ard conspicuous services to the
country at a time when it most needed
them, are in the highest degree laudable.
This company has aided, and will continue
to aid, in this Undertaking in every step
that is consistent, and we feel quite sure
that she will succeed, not only because of
the merits of the movement, but because
of the intrinsic value of the property. In
regard to the vacation of the property and
legal possession being given to the COM
pany, that was entirely in accordance with
f,sa
when the option was given to her to re-
deem the property by February l, 1896"

A CLAIM IN EQUITY
Justice Whites Opinion In the
Income Tax Cases Made
Public.
GOVERNMENT is RESPONSIBLE
For Enormous Sums Collected
Under Former Income
Tax Laws.

WASHINGTON, April 29.-Since the
decision of the supreme court in the in
come tax case, there have been fire.
quent references on the part Of the at.
torneys for the liability Of the govern
ment for sums paid as taxes ON rents
and investments from land under
former income taxes. It will be re-
membered that General Olney in his
brief on the subject Of a rehearing, sug-
gested that congress could not well es-
cape making provision for the refund
ing of these amounts if the decision
was to stand.
whites Opinion Touched Upon II.
Associate Justice Whites opinion, the
text of which has just been made pub
lie, also touched upon this point. He
said:
Under the income tax laws which
prevailed in the past for many years,
and which covered every conceivable
source of income, rentals from real es-
tate and everything else, vast sums
were collected from the people Of the
United States. The decision here rend.
cred that those sums We're
wrongfully taken and thereby, it seems
to me, creates a claim in equity and
good conscience against the govern
ment for an enormous amount OF
money. Thus from a change of view
by this court, it happens that an act OF
congress, passed for the purpose OF
raisiug revenue, in strict conformity
with the practice Of the government
from the earliest time and in accord
ance with the oft repeated decisions OF
this court, furnishes the occasion for
creating a claim against the govern.
ment for
Hundreds Of Millions Of Dollars.
I say, creating a claim, because if the
government be in good conscience
bound to refund that which has been
taken from the citizens, in violation OF
the constitution, although the techni.
cal right may have disappeared by rea.
son of a lapse of time. or because the
decisions of this court, have led the cit
izen to his grievous injury, the equity
endures and will present itself to the
conscience Of the government. This
consequence shows how necessary it Is
that the court should not overflow its
past decisions.

THEORY BECOME A c

Treasury Of San Francisco Empty-No
Money to Run Even the
SAN FRANCISCO, April 20. The theory
that the treasury of this city and county
would become exhausted in the course
of so many days or weeks, as a result Of
so many drafts upon it for election and
other expenses, has given way to a con-
dition. The treasury is exhausted
and t~radespeople refuse to honor the
acquisitions Of the supervisors. Super
intendent Weaver Of the almshouse says
his cattle are hungry, and within a few
days, unless relief is given, the 900 in
mates will be crying for bread. Fire
Commissioner Bohen says there is no
food for the horses and no coal for the
engines and none can be had unless
there is money SO pay for it.

finance committee of the board of super.
