The Tax Sale Bill.

Mr.. Hulick of Ohio in his report on the
bill relating to taxes and tax sales in the
District, says:
1.-The laws in the District of Columbia
relating to the listing of property and
the assessment and collection of taxes are
very unsatisfactory; in many instances
great injustice is done to the taxpayer
and in other cases the District fails to
collect the taxes. Millions of property in
the District now escapes taxation that
should be placed upon the tax duplicate
After assessments have been made upon
real estate and the owners fail to pay
the taxes, 1t is difficult for the District
to collect the delinquent taxes.
Zone essential fault Is the peremptory
requirement that at the expiration of two
years from the date of the sale of q piece
of real estate for overdue taxes the Com
mfssioners must, on demand Of the owners
Of the tax-sale certificate, issue a deed
for the property, without providing as a
condition precedent to such deed that all
overdue taxes and assessments other than
those involved in such tax-sale certificate
shall also have been paid.

q convenient agency of frequent resort for

amend the statute by providing that no

Fahey Divorce Case.

In the divorce proceedings instituted sew
eral weeks ago by Kate r. Fahey against
Daniel c. Fahey, the real estate broker,
the defendant this afternoon filed a motion
for permission to make defense, he hav-
ing decided heretofore not to oppose the
proceedings.
Mr.. Fahey states that his wife abandoned
and left him without any cause, except for
the purpose Of trumping up an excuse in
order to obtain divorce; and, he con-
tinues. it having been agreed between his
wife and himself that IL he made no de-
Tense to the suit she would abandon her
claim for alimony and counsel fees, he con-
cluded to make no defense. Since her EVIL
dence has been taken, says Mr.. Fahey, he
has found the same to be so absolutely
false, and therefore he now desires an OBJ
portunity to refute the testimony Of his
wife. Leo Simmons is the attorney for the
defendant.

FEW DEVELOPMENTS.
Hall Murder Case d still an Unsolved
Problem.


Problem.
The Han murder mystery stin remains
unsolved. It begins to look now as though
the case might go down in local history as
one CT the unpunished crimes 1t il now
the third day since the old cobbler was so
brutally murdered In his little shanty on
9th street between U and v, and as each
day goes by the chances Of the criminal
being apprehended are naturally lessened.
That the police regard the tangle as an
unusually difficult one is shown. by the fact
that the department has offered a reward
of $50 for Information that will lead to the
arrest and conviction Of the murderer. The
colored Lutheran Church of which Hall
was q member has also taken the matter
up with interest, and the pastor, Rev.
d. E. Wiseman, and others are instru-
mental in raising fund for the same pur-
pose. It Ii said that they have already
raised $75
the police who are working on the case
have only two men behind the bars at the
station house today, the first batch who
were taken up by the drag-net method hav-
ing been released yesterday afternoon when
the inquest developed the fact that there
was not the slightest real evidence against
any one of them.
The two men who are restrained OF their
liberty are Tony Anderson. alias Sitt'-E
Bull, and Ed Waters. both colored. The
evidence against tneln Is not particularly
strong. They were arrested on their gen.
eral regulations. which are decidedly un-
savory. The police simply thought that the
best thing to do was to gather them in and
hold them until their whereabouts on the
night of the murder can he looked up.
A number of new clues were started to-
day. and the police were kept busy hunting
them down. None Of them offered any
great promise. and the men who are trying
to solve the mystery are put to 1t to know
which way to turn next.
The coroner's inquest which was fnquir-
ing into the murder Of Hall was concluded
yesterday afternoon after all the witnesses
had been examined. The jury then brought
in a verdict to the effect that John Wesley
Hall came to his death on the night Of
Tuesday, April Z. 1896. at the hand Of some
party or parties unknown.
This left the case precisely where 1t stood
when Halls body was discovered Tuesday
evening. The evidence which was developed
during the inquest was sufficient to show
that the seven men who were behind the
bars at the eighth precinct station were all
innocent of any connection with the crime,
and the coroner ordered that they be re-
leased from custody. When the police
walked out of the room after the inquest
the problem which stared them in the face
was precisely the same problem that they
had been working over for two days. 1t
was now necessary to have a fresh deal,

and which had been subsequently subjected
to the severest tests Of litigation. In all
essentials. however. 1t had been held to be
fore held to the legal pathway blazed by
that bill in order that after its passage 1t
would not become a target for litigation:
1t was, Mr.. Grosvenor argued. the duty
of legislation to protect the producers Of
food products from competition with spur
ious articles, and to protect the consumer
from the purchase Of such counterfeits.
The expectation of filled cheese, he claim
ed, had practically ruined the foreign mar
ket for genuine American full milk cheese.
The bill did not prohibit or discourage the
manufacture of filled cheese: 1t simply
forced the manu-, acture and sale of 1t I'M
Violation of the Oleomargarine LAW.
In reply to a question by Mr.. Cannon, Mr..
Grosvenor said, despite the taxation and
penalties in the oleomargarine law, the
manufacturers had gone on making vast
profits. The testimony before the ways and
means committee, he said, had demonstrated
that the law was violated LOCO times q day
In the city Of Washington.
rs the experience with the oleomargarine
law not the best reason asked Mr.. Nc
Millin, why this effort to destroy an in
dustry by taxation should not be made?"
Mr.. Grosvenor denied that the bill pro-
posed to destroy the industry. The regula-
lions in the bill, he said, would compel the
sale Of filled cheese under its true name, and
regulate all traffic in the article. Mr.. Otey
Va) opened the debate in opposition to the
BILL which, he said should be entitled a bill
to manufacture crime.
He maintained that the testimony OF
experts showed that filled cheese was q
healthy article Of diet and good as cream
cheese and much cheaper.
Mr.. McMillin's Opposition.
Mr.. McMillin (Tenn.), member Of the
ways and means committee, made the
principal argument against the bill. He
argued that there was no reason why the
manufacturers of filled cheese should
be taxed while the manufacturers Of other
ferns of cheese were not taxed, and that
resort to the power Of taxation for the
suppression of its production or sale was
required the branding of filled cheese, he
said, the minority would not resist a meas
ure for that purpose, If confined to inter-
state commerce.

TRIPLE MURDERER HANGED.

Arthur Schneider Executed In the
Parish Prison, New Orleans.
NEW ORLEANS. April 10. II Arthur
Schneider, a German, about twenty years of
age, was hanged in the parish prison today
in the presence of witnesses, as the law
directs. The drop fell at 1855.
Schneider was in love with girl employ
ed in the same restaurant. She rejected
him, and ne started for the west, but re-
turned, purchased two pistols, stole into
the place and murdered Schroeder, his al
legged rival, and then killed the girl. He
played insane, but was declared responsible
by a commission of inquiry. He blamed
Deputy Sheriff Jerry Duggan for the fail
ure to cheat justice, and killed him in the
prison with knife which he managed to
secure.
and sentenced to death.
