WAITING FOR A DECISION.
THE FINDING OF THE APPELLATE COURT
ON THE RAINES LAW En-
PECTED FRIDAY.

Many lawyers. politicians and lduor-dealers In
this city are anxiously awaiting the decision OF
the Appellate Division Of the Supreme Court IN
the test case In which the constut'onality OF
the Raines LIQUOR Tax law was called In question
The decision is expected Friday. and many
lawyers expect that the Appellate Division OF the
Supreme Court will declare the law to be uncon-
stitutional. The will be carried to the Court
Of Appeals but a declaration on Friday that the
Raines law is unconstitutional would continue the
old Excise Board in power for time at least. ana
probably would put stop to the operations OF the
state excise machine until after the time fixed
by the law FOR issuing the liquor tax certificates
While the case is pending In the court In this
city. therefore, there is much uncertainty OF pur-
pose evident In the Offices OF the old Excise Board
