LICENSES WITHOUT LIMIT.
Denver Council Upheld In Taxing
Street Cars.

DENVER, Col, July 1.-The state
supreme court today handed down
an opinion that holds that the levy
ing of license by the Denver city
council on all occasions is entirely
legal. In 1886 the council passed an
ordinance placing a $40 tax on all
street cars. This amount was aft
erward increased to $25. The Den
ven City Gable railway was the first
corporation to refuse to comply with
the terms of the ordinance. Its rep
resentatives were arrested and fined,
and were ordered to pay the tax Of
$50 on each car owned by them. The
defendants appealed. Although the
supreme courts opinion does not
specify directly what articles or oc-
equations the council may tax or
license, it is plainly inferred that the
city fathers have limitless power,

the edge of the iron cot in his shirt

arranging the room and Electrician
Davis getting his wires ready. This
maze him nervous and he asked the
guards whether they had heard any,

until after $50 o'clock, chewing a.
cigar and talking to himself occa-

on for four seconds and then reduced
to forty volts, which was kept on for
thirty seconds more. 1t was the
quickest and most successful execu-
