TEST CAsE-C. Ii. Dickore, repre-
sentiug the Grand Union Tea Company,
was before the Mayor this morning for
an opinion upon the legality of a IL
cense for peddling. The company was
represented by Mr.. Flanigep, who
stated that Dickore was not the COM
pany, that he was simply engaged in
procuring orders for goods one week
and deliver said goods the succeed
ing week and receiving money at the
time of the delivering of the goods.
Mr.. Flanigen quoted authorities show.
ing the decisions of the higher courts
denying ,he right of any State to dis
crimina against citizens of other
States. The counsel also questioned
the fact OF peddling being proved, mas
much as orders We're received at one
time and the goods were delivered at
another. The Mayor said that the
taking of orders at one time and the
deliver of goods and receiving
money with weekly regularity at an.
other could not be construed as other
than 40 evasion of the pedding law,
aud while in this case there WAS no in
territorial attempt to evade the law, the
act did not destroy the fact of the bus
mess being peddling. The Mayor fur
theT said there had been no discrimina-
tioa asaiost defendant, as our own
ct!zeus were amenable to the same
law, and that if those outside of the
city could come into the corporation
ana do business without license, our
merchants who pay heavy taxes would
be very previously Disseminated
against. The Mayor decided g license
necessary. An appeal will probably be
taken from the Mayors decision.

MARK HAAHA'S BRIBERY FUND
CONTROVERSY OVER PART OF
THE CASH.
Was Paid to Colonel Campbell By
Hanna's Discussing Agent and
Is Now Tied Up In Court.

Cincinnati, Jan. 29.-Judge DemD sey
had before him again yesterday The
motion to compel Colonel T. c. Camp
bell to pay into court the money which
it was alleged was given last January
to Legislator Otis by H. H. Boyce, who
was supposed to be acting for Senator
Hanna when the latter was eandl-
date. a suit was filed here and the at
tempt was made to garnishee the mon
ey alleged to be in the possession Of
Campbell. He appeared in court and
said that the money was in New YORK,
where it was tied UP by an order OF
court in suits filed there against Boyce
and that it could not be brought here
without mourning the penalty OF the
court there. 1t was also asserted py
counsel for Campbell that it was not
the property of Boyce, but of Senator
Hanna. This was denied and it was
asserted that they could not show that
the money ever belonged to the senator.
Judge Dempsey took the matter under
Amusement.
John C. Otis is the Republican men,
Der of the legislature from Cincinnati
who claimed a year ago to have been
offered $1,700 for his vote for senator.
Campbell is his attorney and it was
claimed that H. H. Boyce paid the
money to Campbell. There are some
who deny the whole story, claiming the
money was never turned over TO any
one or offered TO Otis, and suit is
brought both to test the claim, that
was thought to have been made for
effect on the senatorial contest, and
also for the benefit of Boyce's creditors.
The matter was investigated by the
Legislature a year ago by a committee
of which Vernon H. Burke, of CleYe-
land, was chairman.

Will Introduce Bill Providing That

Paris, Jan. 29.-The governments de-
cision to submit to the chamber of depu-
ties tomorrow a bill providing that the
cases of trial revision shall be brought
before the united section OF the court of
cessation has reopened the food safes OF
the Dreyfus agitation The situation APP
pears more confusing and menaclng than
ever. For days the anti-Dreyfusites have
been clamoring to have the case referred
TO the united sections. because they have
considered 1t certain that among more
than thirty judges. they could rely upon
an anti-Dreyfusite majority.
In today's Echo de Paris, VI. Quesnay de
Beaurepaire. who. on Jan. g. resigned the
presidency of the civil section of the court
OF cessation as a protest against the way
in which the criminal section under the
presidency Of NJ. LOeW was conducting the
Dreyfus proceedings. again justifies his
action in .. screaming screed and asserts
. that the ministers hold a decisive dOcu-
ment; while NM. Cope and Jules
Lemaitre have signed a manifesto on be-
half of the organization know as La
Patrie Francois. claiming credit for urg-
ing the government to take its present
course and declaring that if the Dreyfns
affair be once submitted 20 this truly SUI
preme tribunal it Will receive such d So
luton as viii ensure the coUntrys re-
pose.
NJ. Loew. president of the criminal
chamber, who was asked his opinion re-
garding the governments proposal said:
I am glad TO be relieved of the rSsDon-
sibility, but the governments action is
revolutionary.
The anti-revisionist papers are ju5ilant,
but the most serious and impartial
journals depreeate the governments
weakness. In all political centers today
there has been unusual excitment and
activity. 1t is thought in some quarters
that the senate Will refuse to accept the
bill, thus producing constitutional
crisis.

chief and Captain McCluskey said that

as a witness in the case. George ".
KOutnik has. however, been before the
public several times before.
