NERVOUS TROUBLES END IN
ST. WTUS' DANCE.
(From the Reporter. Somerset. XIV

CFrom the Reporter. Somerset. Ky)
Among the foot hills of the lumber
land Mountains, near the town of Flat
Rock is the happy home of James Nc
Pherron. Four months ago the daugh-
ter of the family, a happy girl of six
teen, was stricken with ST. Vitus'
dance. The leading physicians were
consulted, but without avail She
grew pale and thin under the terrible.
nervous strain, and was fast losing,
her mental powers. In fact, the
thought of placing her in an asylum
was seriously considered. Her case
has been so widely talked about that
the report Of her cure was like modern
izing a miracle of old. To a reporter
who visited the home the mother said:
Eyes, the reports of my daughters
sickness and cure are true as you hear.
them. Her affection grew into ST. vi
tus, dance from an aggravated form
of weakness and nervous trouble pecu1-
lar to her sex. ,Everyssource. of help
was followed to the end, but it seemed
that physicians and medicine were pow
erless. Day by day she grew worse,
until we despaired of her life. AT,
times she almost went into commissions
She got SO that we had to watch her
to keep her from wandering away, and
you can imagine the care she was.
about this time, when our misery
was greatest, and all hope had fled,
read of another case, almost similar,
that had been cured by a m edicine
known as DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
Almost in desperation 1 secured some
of the pills, and from that day on the
wonderful work of restoration COM
menced; the nervousness left, her
cheeks grew bright with the color of
health, she gained flesh and grew
strong both mentally and physically,
until today she is the very picture of
good health and happiness.
cit is no wonder that I speak in glow
ing terms of Pink Pills to every ailing
person L meet. They saved my daugh-
ters life and L am grateful"
The foregoing is but one of many
wonderful cures that have been cred
tied to Dr. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People In many cases the report
ed cures have been investigated by the
leading newspapers, and verified in
every possible manner. Their fame has
spread to the far ends of civilization,
and there is hardly drug store in this
country or abroad where they cannot
be found.

WASHINGTON, April Is. = The
Shanghai cable stating that Japan had
given Lii Hung Chang an ultimatum
to accept, or reject the final peace
terms by tomorrow is conceded by
diplomats as presenting the latest
phase of the question. and as clearing
up misapprehension on the subject
The cable was shown to Mr.. Matsui,
secretary of the Japanese legation,
who said that while the legation had
nothing further than the advices of
yesterday, yet the Shanghai report
appeared to be consistent with. the
status of affairs as understood at the
legation. The armistice ran for seven
days more. he said, and yet Japan
doubtless did not want the final agree

The army will be held in allegiance
until then, but it would be quite de-

definitely made before then, in order
that there should be no embarrass-

hence. The negotiations had at first
brought what Japan expected and
what China was willing to yield. In
order to adjust the differences he
tween these positions, Japan had
finally made some concessions. These
represented the largest concessions
possible, and were in the nature of an
ultimatum. 1t was intended to bring

FOUND PERRY's SOCKS.
Authorities on the Track of the
Escaped Train Robber.

FISHKILL LANDING, N. Y, April
13.-The authorities of the Matthewan
asylum are at last on the track of
Oliver Curtis Perry, the notorious train
robber, and the chance of catching
him seems better tonight than it has
been at any time since the sensational
escape of Wednesday night. On Thurs
day night about 1890 p. m. the house
of Emil Schoenfeldt's, near Hughson-
vile, was entered by burglar, who
turns out to have been Perry. When
the Schoenfeldts arose Friday morn
ing they found that a pair of rubber
boots, coat and a Mexican Sombrero of
light color, which Schoenfeldt recently
brought from Texas, had been stolen.
These articles had been taken from the
kitchen, where Perry had eaten every
thing within reach. Outside the house,
lying on a, stone wall, Schoenfeldt
found pa$ of socks, the bottoms of
which were entirely Worn through, and
close beside them was a piece of bark
with strips of a handkerchief, such as
is used in the asylum, and which the
bark had evidently been tied by to the
convict's feet. He had discarded his
rough foot gear for the boots which
he found in the house. Tonight the
socks were positively identified at the
asylum as having belonged to Perry,
being one Of two pairs which had been
sent to him by a friend while here.
They are entirely different from the
regulation asylum socks.

DECISION THAT DECIDES
Is Expected From the Full
Bench When the Case
Comes Up Again.
GROVER FAvoRs THE LAW.
Appointment Of Jackson's
Successor May Have Weight
in the Case.

WASHINGTON. April 15.-Infor-
NAL notice has been given the Unit
ed States supreme court by counsel
in opposition to the income tax of a
purpose to ask the court for re-
hearing of the income tax question.
The petition asking a rehearing
probably will be made Monday by
Lawyer Guthrie. In view of the inn
portance of the case the impression
prevails that the court will grant
the motion and that arguments will
be made for speedy hearing and
final determination of the issue.
Justice Jackson's health has i'm
proved considerably of late, and it
is known in this city that Judge
Jackson recently expressed his de-
termination to come to Washington
and resume his official duties at
once in case the income tax suits
were set down for an immediate
hearing, and in view of this fact it
was believed that the cases would
be reopened and an early decision
be given upon those portions of the
law upon which eight justices are
now equally divided
Later information concerning JUS
tice Jackson would indicate that he
did not expect to return to Wishing
ton until October, which would de-
lay rehearing until then, and that
it was coupled with the statement
that If his health did not then per-
nit him to resume his duties he
would send his resignation to the
president.
There is no doubt as to the presi-
dents views upon the expediency
and constitutionality of the income
tax. His suggestion to congress
that low-rate income tax should
be enacted was only made after the
most careful examination of all the
questions involved, and as a result of
this examination he was and still is
convinced that an income-tax law is
constitutional. 1t is understood that
ms views differ very radically from
those Of the court on the rent ex-
emptlon question as contained i'm
their opinion of last Monday. Mr..
Cleveland, it is said, holds to the
opinion that the taxation of incomes
received from rents is not a direct
tax within the meaning of the con-
sutution, and that in case of the re-
of Justice Jackson during
his term of office he will see to it
that his successors views coincide
with MS own on this important
point.

1T GRATIFIES HILL,
New York Senator Says the whole
Tax Should BE Declared Void


Tax Should BE Declared Void.
T NEW YORK, April 13-Referring to
the decision of the United States
supreme court in relation to the in
come tax, Senator Hill says: 81 have
ventilated my views concerning the
tax pretty thoroughly. 1 was gratified
with the finding of the court as far
as 1t went, but believe that the whole
tax, instead Of part, should be de-.
clared unconstitutional. The tax is
manifestly a direct tax, and as such
is unconstitutional. The tax is not a
Democratic measure from any point
of view. 1t Is more of a populistic law
than anything else. 1t seems to be
compromise measure to secure votes
of an element in the country antag-
onistic to all existing conditions.
The finding of the court will directly
knock out just the part of the law
that these people were urging, and
will prove of more benefit to New York
state, perhaps, than any other state
in the Union. In New York nearly all
the municipal and state bonds are
held. and in this city also are the big
landed estates. The main features of
the law are therefore wiped out, and
the party gets nothing for its palms,

ONE MORE TEST.
Owners of Mortgages Want TO Es-
cape the Tax.

TOLEDO. o., April 13.-Directors of
the Union Savings bank, of this city,
are to be asked to bring suit to test
the income tax law, in so far as 1t an
plies to incomes derived from mort
cages held by savings banks. Leander
Burdick, one of the directors of the
Union Savings bank, said today: my
theory is that if the decision of the
supreme court holding exempt from
taxation rents because the owner of
the property pays taxes on the same
the incomes derived. from mortgages
should be held exempt. They are
doubly taxed by the owner, of the prop
erty mortgaged paying taxes, and the
bank holding the mortgage paying
taxes to the state. county and munic-
ipality upon the Investment.
The investments of the Union Saw
ngs bank are largely upon real estate
mortgages. If the directors consent

The Passing of the Trolley.

Now that 1t appears to be certain that the
lexington and Soldiers Home Street Rail-
road Company will at once remove the
illegal and obstructive poles and wires from
New York avenue east Of Seventh street
briefly the combat which, after years of
duration, has at last resulted in victory
for those who have been alert In the peo-
pies best interest. AS the unquestioned
leader of the anti-trolley forces-from the
first skirmish down to the trolley's belated
surrender-The Star has no reason to be
otherwise than proud of tEe part 1t has
taken in the struggle. When the initial
suggestion of overhead trolley was made,
The Star, as a part of its general warfare
upon all overhead wires in Washington, at
ton as was proposed would be entirely out
of place on the thoroughfares of great
city and conspicuously SO on the streets
and avenues of model city such as Wash
ingtoa is soon destined to be. Congress,
however, was careless for awhile on the
whole subject, but when the reasonable
probabilities were made plain the national
legislature decreed that on and after q
date named there should be no furth ar
stringing of overhead wires of any sort
whatever within the city limits. Unfor-
tunately though. that decree was of no
effect so far as the lexington ard Soldiers
Home road was concerned, for the manage
ment of the company at once proceeded to
take advantage of the fact that the law
was practically not law until the specified

date, and before the statute could be ap-
piled the poles and wires were UP on New
Y fork avenue. There was general condem-
nation Of tn. hasty -ecsion of the company
but efforts to put a stop to the sharp prac-
tee by which the anti-overhead-wire law
was in part null.f1ed proved to be unavail-
ing. Temporarily defeated, The Star never

tinued its warfare. against tie unsightly

car propulsion until at last Congress
enacted the legislative provision which gave
to the trolley three-years limit Of ex-
istence The term was made of that length
because there was no desire either in Con-
gress or elsewhere to deal harshly with
the responsible parties, and because 1t was
imagined that the company would inside
of three years find some suitable under
ground method of propulsion tnat would
take the place of the electrical kindergarten
method which the company had insisted
upon installing. Whea the G., three-years'
limit had almost been reached. the company
applied to Congress for an extension of
one year, and this, in spite Of strenuous
opposition, was secured; in fact the pro-
trolley forces were 50 strong in Congress
at that time that the city of Washington
had narrow escape-about as close a
shave was possible-fron having the
overhead trolley thrust upon it over its
entire area by an active organization of
trolley advocates in the House of Represen-
tatives, led by Tom johnson of Ohio. That
was probably the bitterest stage of the
conflict but despite all manner of influ-
ences The Star, although alone among
local newspapers in its contest against the
trolley. continued to main tain the offensive
defensive and succeeded in staving off
everything except the one proposition that
an additional year of grace be given the
lexington company. BIT when second
effort was made for extension there was no
spirit Of compromise anywhere. The trolley
people fought savagely, for they knew that
existence itself was at stake. The Star
was no less in earnest, and as the result
the application for extension failed. After
Congress had adjourned and there was no
longer any possibility of the companY' S
securing favors from the national legisla-
ture. and when the las. day of grace al
lowed to the company had expired. the mat
ter fell Into the hands of the District Com
missioners, and to these officials The Star
addressed itself in terms that could not
possibly be Inexperienced. For the ex-
tremely deliberate management OF their
campaign against the lexington company
ever since that corporation set out to openly
defy the law the Commissioners alone are
responsible. Finally. reaching the conclu-
sion that the methods of procedure advo-
Gated in this paper were most likely to be
fruitful of result, the Commissioners did
what they should nave done before. and as
direct consequence the company has
pledged itself to remove the poles and wires
within ten days, and, using horses tempor-
arily, to speedily install an unobjectionable
rapid transit system And thus comes
about the passing of the overhead trolley
in Washington.
