JACKSON OPPOSES TT.
The Justices Neighbors Think He
will Decide Against the
Law.

Washington, D. c., May 2-It is ex-
pected that Judge Jackson will be here
~ Saturday and that ne will take his
eat on the Supreme bench Monday.
Ii he is present, Chief Justice Fuller
WI cali up the income tax rehearing,
| Il it the justice should be unable to
:, pear the matter will not be alluded
C. during the session.
Ene general impression here concerning
Judge .Jackson's share in the coming con-
sideratIon OF the income tax matter III the
Supreme court has been that he would
be among the judges favorable to the tax,
and that it the court were to grant a re-
hearing he would be found among the ma
jorlty sustaining the law and the final de-
cislon. A man of intelligence and care
full student of affairs wherever he goes
has just returned from the neighborhood
of Judge Jackson's home and brings with
him the news that the judges nelghbors
all take the ether view. Yney say he is
opposed to the present income tax and
that his temperance on the bench will
mean the decisive overseeing of the law,
unless counsel can produce some more
convincing arguments than any which
We're laid before the court at its late hear
ing or than he has himself met with any
where or thought out
1t is said that if the Supreme court
were to consult the wishes of President
Cleveland, Secretary Carlisle, Attorney
General Olney, Internal Revenue Commits
sioner Miller and practically all the other
officials of the government, it would con-
triye to hit the income tax law a final
blow and put it and it's weary doctors
and nurses out of misery. The treasury
officials are doing the best they can to
collect the tax, and Commissioner Miller
has estimated an income of $14,00U,OO
from this source. AS a matter of fact he
will think himself lucky if he gets half
that sum. Tie law is virtually dead al
ready. Public opinion is against it. eve

a correspondent. ''Ve'll have a fine time

powers in Washington, which are under
the jurisdiction of their own governments
alone, and of the persons of the dlplo-
mats, who are absolved from any ac-

States, gives rise to frequent legal diff
fculties. The most recent mlsunder-
standing between the authorities of the
District of Columbia and a resident min
lister has just resulted in victory for
Senior Romero, the Mexican representa-
tive. Recently the minister received a
bill from the municipal powers for the
laying of a sewer in front of the premises
owned and occupied by the legation: He
returned the bill to the commissioners
with a protest that his property was cx-
empt from the taxation under the gen.
eral law applying to foreign legations.
The attorney for the district has just
rendered a decision in which he declares
that the minister's protest is we'll found
ed and that the foreign legations cannot
be made to pay for improvements in
front of their property.
