Disinfe ctiOn After Scarlet Fever.

Experiments byDr. William Gibson,
of Campbelltown, Scotland, in disin-
fecting scarlet fever patients 30 as to
free them from contsgon before the
pre- cess of desquamation is completed,
have resulted successfully, according
to the Philadelphia Ledger. His
method was to give succession of
three or four comfortably warm baths,
some times daily, at other times on al-
ternatc days, using freely carbolic acid
s5ap, and washing the patient thor
oughly from top to toe. After each
bath, except the last, the patient was
put back to the bed on which he had
lain with the disease. After the last
bath he was taken into clean room,
dressed with cloths free from Injection,
and then allowed to mingle with Il Q
rest OF the family. In most cases he
body was anointed daily with olive oil
mixed with some disinfectant. Patti
ents with such complications as otitis
or liberated or suppurating thloat,
were not subjected to the eprocess. No
complications followed the cleansing
process in any case, but convalescence
seemed to be rather hastened than
retarded.

IS ISUNCONSTlTUTIONAL
The Supreme Court Kills the Income Tax
Law by a Vote Of 8 TO 4,
The Last Conference Held Behind
CLOSED Doors, the Employees
Being Excluded.

WASHINGTON, May 20-Justice Full
Ter this morning read the opinion de.
claring the income tax Law unconsti-
tutional.
The supreme court judges had
conference this morning for the pur-
pose OF hearing final draft of the va
rious opinions on the income tax cases.
All members except Justice Jackson
were present.
In accordance with previously
outlined program all opinions sub
mitted were in manuscript, the chief
justice having objected to the findings
going into the hands Of printers or
anyone else. Ali employees we're ex-
cuded from the consultation. The
conference lasted until few minutes
before court convened.
The income tax decision causes q
feeling OF great relief among the treas
ury officials now that they know where
they stand. The decision increases
the deficit OF the government by sew
eral millions. The additional amount
makes little difference, however, be-
cause the deficit is SO large in the ag-
gregate that it will be necessary to
issue bonds. 1t would have been so
with the mutilated income tax law
standing as it was left by the first de-
oision. The taxes already paid in will
be refunded. Many argue that the
deficiency caused by the Wilson tariff
bill renders it necessary for an extra
session OF Congress.

CONCLUSION OF THE COURT.

"First, we adhere to the opinion al
ready announced, that taxes on real
estate being undisputably direct taxes,
taxes on rents or income of real estate
are equally direct.
"Second, we are of the opinion that
taxes on personal property or income
from personal property are likewise
direct taxes.
"Third, tax imposed by sections
27 to 81, inclusive, act of 1894, SO far
as it falls on income from real esl 10
and on personal property, being a di,
rect tax within meaning of the consul
tuition, and is therefore unconstitu
tionsl and void because it is moi
apportioned according to representa-
ton. All these sections, constituting
one entire scheme Of taxation, are
necessarily invalid.
