pers on Sundays either early in the morn
ing before hours or after 10 am, the limit
fixed by the police regulations. Because
of these complaints Policeman Barbee yes

calling aloud their papers after 1880 am
The boys were given a hearing in the Po-
lice Court this morning.
Judge Kimball said that he had often
heard newsboys crying their papers while
he was in church and he thought such
annoyances should be stopped.
The law has been on the books for a long
time. he said, but for some reason 1t has
not been enforced.
He thought this was sufficient warning
and took the boys personal bonds.
William Corrs. colored, was arrested by
Policeman Narrower and his persona

No Expedition From Costa RIGA

Joaquin Bernardo CaIvo, charge d'affaires
Of Costa Rica, said in an interview last
night:
II observe that in some recent publica-
lions of the press, referring to Gen. Maceo.
it is stated that an expedition started out
from Costa Rica, and although the perfect
fealty of the government of that republic
appears from those publications, I deem
it proper to state in the most emphatic
manner that no expedition has left Costa
Rica, nor could any leave, because the gov
eminent maintains an active vigilance, and
knows how to act most theoretically to pre-
vent the abuse of it's territory as against
any other country"

this effect was current here last evening.

BOBS UP VERY SERENELY Y
The Income Tax Law Sustained By the
Supreme Court
There Are Some Little Discrepancies that Will
Give the Lawyers a Chance for
Fight

CHICAGO. April GA special dispatch
to the Tribune from Washington, D. c.,
saws: s'The United States supreme court
in the income tax case has reversed the
decision of the lower court, but the in
come tax law as whole is upheld, but
only by the divided court.
"Two important portions OF the law,
however, have been decided to be uncon-
stltutional, and they are SO serious as to
affect materially, not only the revenue of
the government but the estimation n
which the income tax will be held by the
people. Under the decision to be handed
down by the court, it is said, all incomes
derived from rents are exempted from
taxation by the Federal government, and
all incomes derived from state and munic-
ipal bonds are similarly exempted. In
other respec Is the income tax law stands
as it was la st August, but the result OF
the consultations in the supreme court
shows very concluslveiy that the law can
easily be picked to pieces provided suits
are brought to contest each particular
point as it comes up.
1T is curious fact, but none the less
true that the law which was passed at the
dictation of the Populistic wing of
Democratic Congress has been distorted
by the decision of the United States SUI
grounds, in way that will absolutely
protect the class of capitalists most
offensive to the Populstic element.
The landlords of the country will pay
no income tax. The owners of bonds of
almost any kind, either Federal state,
county or municipal, will also be free
while the business men, the manufactur-
er and the salaried employee, will, for the
present at least be compelled to contrib
ute to the treasury of the United States
government two per cent Of all incomes
in excess of $4,000 per annum.
"The first meetings of the supreme
court were held March 10th, two days after
the conclusion of the arguments. but no
decision arrived at, and it was not until
March 30th that they succeeded in agree
ing upon the outlines OF decision cover
ing the opinion of the lower court"

A HYPNOTIC CASE,
The Kansas Supreme Court Decides Famous
Murder Case.

TOPEKA, Kas., April 6.-The Supreme
Court today affirmed the verdict of mur-
der arrived at in the District Court of
Sumner county last fall in the case OF An
derson Gray. Fake correspondents have
made this case famous as a great hyp-
motto case. The facts in the matter are
that Thomas Mcdonald shot Thomas Pat
ton, near Wellington, last May. He was
arrested, charged with murder. Ander-
son Gray was also arrested, charged with
melting the deed. Mcdonald was ac-
quilted on the ground that Patton had
been intimate with his wife. Gray was
convicted and appealed to the Supreme
Court, which today decided against him.
The story was that Mcdonald was al
legged to have been hypnotized by Gray to
commit the murder. There was, in fact,
no such allegation and the question OF
hypnotism never came up in any connec-
tlOQ.
