DERELICT UNIVERSITY TRUSTEES.
Altgeld and Others Indicted for Not
Displaying the Stars and Stripes.

CHAMPAIGN, ILL.,, March Ex-Governor
John p. Altgeld and the entire board Of trus-
tees of the University of Illinois were in
dicted by the Champaign county grand jury
to-day for alleged neglect or refusal to COM
ply with the law requiring that the American
flag be displayed over the university build
ings. The flag has been displayed from the
flag pole in front of the military hall, but
not from the separate buildings.
A dispatch from Springfield says Cover
nor Altgeld receives s.,e Indignation about
the indictment of the Champaign county
grand jury from reporter. The Governor
said: IF such a thing has been done. 1T
only shows that there are some very small
narrow people over there. OF the board of
trustees nine are elected by the people. the
other three being by the Governor. Superin-
tendent of Public Instruction and the preei-
dent of the State Board of Agriculture. The
States attorney of Champaign county, who
probably secured the indictment, cares
nothing about the trustees, and probably
wanted to strike the Governor, thinking it
would be good politics to do so. The flag
probably has been kept flying above the
institution most of the time. If any one
had felt aggrieved, he could have called the
attention of the president of the university
to the failure"

FRENCH INCoME-TAx SCHEME.
Principle of n Government Plan Ap
proved by the Deputies.

Principle of n Government Plan APP
proved by the Deputies.
PARIS, March 26.-The Chamber Of Depu-
ties, by vote of 2s6 to go, has adopted the
government proposal Of the principle of an
income tax, but has referred the details of
the scheme to committee. The income tax
proposal has been intended as a central
feature of the plan of the present govern
ment. and 1t has been believed extremely
doubtful whether its proposal could pass the
Legislature. The action tonight Is in the
nature Of compromise, indorsing the prin-
ciple of an income tax, but throwing aside
the details OF, the government scheme. Ac-
cording to this scheme incomes of less than
$500 francs ($5Q0) were to be exempt, and
$500 francs was to be deducted from the
assessment of all taxable incomes. Up to
5000 francs the rate of tax was fixed at
1 per cent. Between 5000 francs and 10000
francs at per cent, between 10000 and
10000 francs at per cent, between 10000
and SC, 900 francs per cent, and above 80 600
francs per cent. These progressive rates
for the tax were to apply only to the excess
of income over the sum coming under the
next lower rate; that is 10 say, millionaire
would have his income divided into five
heads, each taxed at different rate. The
abolition of the present house tax, by which
Ii was calculated that G, 500 coo persons would
escape direct taxation, was also involved In
the scheme, while Ii was estimated that the
new law would apply to 1,5o0 900 people, two
thirds of which would pay less than they
have been paying under the house tax.

PHILADELPHIA. March 26.-The street.
railway situation in this city has again be-
come serious. and IL is by the bare margin
OF two votes that the central board or the
Amalgamated Association tonight defeat
ed a resolution that the lines OF the Phila-
delphia Traction Company be tied UP again
on next Monday morning. The discussion
was lorg and earnest. and the vote indicates
that many or the conductors and motor
men are dissatisfied with the manner in
which they claim the company Is carrying
out the terms OF settlement agreed ON by
the peace commissioners. A committee Of
the central board held an all-day session. at
which IL Is said number OF witnesses were
examined and affidavits presented which
showed that the company has done but lit
tie towards settling the difficulties. and
that the men are still being disch lrsed for
apparently no other reason than that they
are members OF the Amalgamated Associa-
tfon- The committees report 10 the central
board precipitated the discussion on the es-
olution TO strike After some further de-
bate lengthy appeal vas made TO the
public. in which the men cited what are
practically the same alleged grievances they
had prior to the strike in December.

Expenses or the SOudan Campaign
VIII He Paid by Egypt.
LONDON, March 26-The expenses Of the
Anglo-Egyptian expedition up the Nile will
be paid out Of the Egyptian reserve fund
Notwithstanding the protests of the French
and Russian governments. The debt COM
mission, which has been In session at Cairo
for several days. decided this afternoon to
advance the 100000 necessary to meet the
expenses Of the expedition. The English,
German. Italian and Austrian members of
the commission voted to advance the money
required. The Russian and French members
voted against the proposition. The latter
entered q vigorous protest against the ac-
ton of the majority and then left the meet
ing. Two hundred thousand pounds of the
sum appropriated is Immediately available.
Directly the action Of the majority of the
comm, ssoners became known the repre-
sentatives of the Paris syndicate of Egyptian
bondholders took steps to institute proceed
ings before the Egyptian mixed tribunal
against the debt commissioners and the
ministers responsible for the reserve fund.
The question of the reported protest of
the Turkish government against the expedi-
ton up the Nile was taken up in the House
Of Commons to-day. The Under Secretary
OF State for Foreign Affairs, Mr.. George N.
Curzon, said that 1t was true that the Sui
tan had made inquiries as to the nature Of
the expedition 20 Dongola, but no protest
had been made on behalf of the Turkish
government The necessary explanations,
Mr.. Curzon added, were given to the Turk
ish ambassador. Mr.. Curzon also said it
was true that Turkey had not been con-
suited previous to steps being taken to or
gan:ze the Nile expedition, but that MOTH
ing was contemplated in advance of the
troops which was beyond the power vested
in the Khedive. Referring to the conflict
OF opinion which had arisen in regard TO
the use Of the Egyptian reserve fund, 1t
being claimed in certain quarters that the
unanimous vote of the debt commissioners
was necessary to use that money for such
purposes as that of the proposed expedition
up the Nile, Mr. Curzon remarked that there
were various precedents for asserting that
a majority vote was all that was necessary
in such cases.
A dispatch to the Times from Cairo says
that the Sultan, having demanded explana-
tions, has elected from the Egyptian gov
ernment the admission that the ultimate OBJ
ject OF the Nile expedition is the rescue OF

PITTSBURG, March 26-Mrs. Ballington
Booth lectured tonight at Sewickley on
SLAM and Shelter Work in Large Cities"
to a large audience. After the lecture Mrs.
Booth broke the silence as to the cause Of
herself and the commander breaking away
from the old organization. She practically
admitted that they had become too much
Americanized to suit the ideas of the powers
in London. She said the whole trouble was
caused by the fact that they had outlived
the work they intended to carry out in Amer
lea. My husband and his father differed
radically In their ideas of how to conduct
the army in America, and Ballington wrote
TO international headquarters at London
stating his views and announcing that IL his
ideas were not agreed to he would resign
his commission. The plan was promptly re-
fused and peacemakers were sent TO us.
This not proving effective in changing US,
were dismissed from the army. Our new
organization Is in no way antagonistic to the
old, but is the outcome to the appeals from
many friends and our wish to continue our
