TAXATION CT MONEY-LENDERs.
The Payment of the State License
All That is Required.

Augusta, Ca, April 22.-It will be re-
membered that the last grand jury of this
county made quite fight on extortionate
money lenders and urged the city not to
license them or else to make the license so
high as to be prohibitory. Following. this
recommendation the city council passed an
ordinance taxing money lenders and money
brokers. other than bankers, $1,000. Only
one firm took out this license.
To-day Judge Galloway rendered a decis-
ION that will complicate matters after the
passage of the $1,000 license ordinance.
Charles E. McCord was charged with do
ing business as a money lender at Broad
and Campbell streets without a
re esase When Nh aes tTiss before the
he is a negotiator of loans; that he
had paid tax of SO to the state and
under the law was exempt from further
taxation from the county or municipal
government The law in question was
originally passed taxing the professions of
law. medicine and dentistry $40. After
wards this was amended by inserting
presidents of banks, each agent or firm
negotiating loans and charging therefor,
presidents of railroads, express, tele-
graph, telephone electric light and gas
companies, or in the absence of pres-
dents, their superintendent or general
agents." City Attorney Carroll claimed
that a negotiator of loans was not a
professional man, and the law did not
mean to class and exempt him with such.
Recorder Barrett held that as McCord
was only shown to have been guilty in
one transaction, he would only fine him
for that days business. The fine imposed
was $25. Mr.. McCOrd certioraried the
case. Today Judge Galloway decided that
the state law was plain, and that as a
negotiator of loans, Mr.. McCord could not
be taxed by the city or county in any
way. Now Turner & Co, who are out
$1,000 for a license, will make an effort
TO get back their money.

TWO PENSION HILLS VETOED.
The President Says They Would Es-
tabIish "A Bad Precedent.


Washington, April 22.-Two pension bills
were returned to the Senate to-day by the
President without his signature. The first
is that giving a pension of $50 per month
to Nancy G. Alablach, widow of Peter H.
Alablach, late colonel of the One
Hundred and Thirty-first Pennsyl-
vania volunteers. who also served in the
war with Mexico. The President takes the
ground that as Mrs. Alablach had already
been pensioned under the Mexican war lat
a lower rate) and the case was likewise
provided for under the dependent pension
law of 1890. it would be creating a prece-
dent under which IL would be difficult to
refuse similar privileges to many thou
sands of widows in q similar situation.
The other bill to meet the executive dis
approval grants a pension to Charles K.
Jones, late a photographer in the Eleventh
Pennsylvania volunteer cavalry. The evil
dence showed that he was wounded while
taking photographs, but as he was not en-
listed in or connected with the military
service of the government, it seems to the
President that the extension of pension
relief to such cases would open the door
to legislation hard to Justify and impossi-
BILE to restrain from abuse

A PIANO COMPANY FAILS.
The Assets Stated at $4,000 and the
Liabilities at 81, 100000.

Cincinnatis O., April 22.-The Smith &
Nixon Piano Company, on Fourth street.
made an assignment this afternoon. The
assets are 100000. and the liabilities $1,OOO,-
600. The members of the firm are Henry
w. Crawford, Joseph G. Eversole and j.
L. Smith.
The firm has branch houses in Pittsburg,
Detroit and Columbus, Toledo and Indian
apolis. An assignment of the property
will be made at each house. The failure
is attributed to hard times, heavy competi-
tion and inability of the firm to get credit
from the banks.
= d. ID. Woodmansee, the assignee, says
the largest factor contributing to the
downfall of the Smith g. Nixon Company
is the fact that within the last three years
the firm has lost S150,000 as sureties of pa
per for their agents.

BARON HIR sCH's DEATH.
The Police of Presburg Suspect Foul
Play.

Paris, April 22.-The Figaro asserts that
the police at Presburg Hungary, are not
satisfied that Baron de Hirsch died from
natural causes, and are making an in
quiry into the circumstances of his DEATH
1t is stated, according to this authority,
that the baron received a great many mem
acing letters from anti-Semite sources af-
ter his arrival at his Austrian estates
None of the above reports, however, are
confirmed. All of the adVices received from
Vienna concur in the statement that Baron
de Hirsch died from syncope at o clock
yesterday morning, in the house of a
neighbor named Ehrenfeld. Some of his
fellow guests, hearing groans, entered his
room, but when they reached his bedside
they found him dead
London April PA dispatch to the
Standard from Vienna says that on the
night previous to his DEATH Baron de
Hirsch was in a very gay humor and,
contrary to his usual habit, drank a good
deal of champagne, which probably induc-
ed apopleXy.

VIOLATING THEIR AGREEMENT

Chicago. Dec 2J-When the Western Freight AS
sociation reorganized. a short time ago. and
a hgh-salaried Board of Administration appointed
to manage Its affairs Western railroad officials felt
confident that peace and harmony would thence
forth prevail among the various roads and rate
cutting would soon become one OF the lost arts
These expectations however have not been real
tied. and from present indications there Is little
prospect for improvement in the railway rate situ-
alton.
The Board OF Administration has been in session
nearly every day since its election two months
ago but II does not appear that anything has been
done to check rate-cutting. Members OF the Board.
when questioned. insist that rates have never been
so we'll maintained before. That the rates are not
maintained any better than formerly is shown by
tho following circular just received by Chairman
Midgley OF the Board OF Administrations:
Members have. doubt. noted the large number
of tariffs reported by Mr.. Osgood tagent OF tho
association at Washington. establishing rates In
Western Freight Association territory not author
lied In the manner provided by the agreement.
Many Of these tariffs issued by the connecting
lines. and some originate with Western Freight
Association roads. Members reminded OF the
obligations to refrain from issuing or authorizing
connecting lines to issue tariffs that have not re-
ceived the approval OF the Board OF Administration.
