PERSONAL TAX.
Solicitor Co!weII Argues In Favor Of
the Proposed Law.
Senator StudIey Also Appeared and Urged
The Passage Of Measure.

The judiciary committee of the Sem
ate gave pubic hearing on che iising
of the Senate today. 20 an persons in
terested in an act to regulate ;he taxa
tion of personal property.
The bill provides i'm substance that all
real property in the state. and all per-
sonal property tangible or Intangible
belonging TO the Inhabitants thereof,
whether individuals, o-partnerships
or corporations, and all tangible per-
sonal property located in the state be-
longing 10 non-residents shall be liable
Co taxation unless otherwise specially
provided.
city Solicitor Colwell spoke i'm favor
Of the passage OF the bill claiming that
II was only just Co the city OF ProNi-
dence that the proposed bill should be-
come a law. He argued that Tangible
property, for the purpose OF TINS act
shall not be construed 20 include money
on deposit. stocks, bonds. notes, COM
merclal paper, book accounts or credits
OF any kind.
Senator Studley. OF Providence. also
spoke warmly IN favor or the passage
OF the bill, and Assistant city Solicitor
Baker followed. The arguments were
that the city OF Providence did not ask
for the passage OF any particular tax
act. but IL did come here To ask for re-
lief from the existing condition OF
things. condition which is weighing
principally upon the small taxpayers
of Providence. and which is burden.
The act before the committee was con-
sidered just and equitable. and COM
petent and unprecedented men believed
that IL would answer the purpose aimed
at. without doing injury 10 any other
community.
Mr.. j. w. Starkweather. of Barring
ton, was the main opponent of the bin,
because he claimed that the majority
of the residents OF harrington were
men who simply lived I'm the town, but
transacted business in Providence. He
claimed that the passage OF the pro-
posed bill would do incaculable injury
To Darlington. and would he simply
and solely for the benefit OF the city of
Providence.
Senator Smith and Senator-elect
Lewis. both OF harrington. endorsed
the Views OF Mr.. Starkweather. ana
Senator browne, OF Warren, said he
believed that every town i'm the state
would be more or less effected.
After a few question had been asked
by the members of the committee. and
answered by gentlemen on the floor. the
committee took the bill under further
consideration

MOLINeUX CASE.
Grand Juys Work on Il Not Likely 10 ee FInShei
for kany Cars.

New York. May 5.-The grand jury
again took up the case of Roland r..
Molineux. charged with the murder
OF Mrs. Adams. II transpired that the
relations between the district attor-
ney's office and the grand jury were not
OF the most cordial kind. District At
-torney Gardiner said today that he
would be rejoiced If the grand jury
would take the case OF his hands and
assume the responsibility. He said 1t
had worried him a good deal, and that
he had been worried much by other re-
cent cases, notably the Dolly Reynolds
case. Some comment was caused by
the fact that Foreman Church and an
other member OF the jury belong To the
Loyal Legion and are friends of their
fellow member Gen. Molineux, father
OF the prisoner. However, Col. Gardi-
ner also belongs 10 that organization,
as does the sitting judge, Mcmahon.
There are 2S witnesses yet to be TAX
en- before the grand jury, and at the
present rate of proceeding the case will
not be finished for many days. Mrs.

HER CLAIM STANDS.
Appellate Court Decides in Favor Of
Louise Lovely Knight.
She C0nisndsd That Her Husband George
B. Knight Owed Her $l0,500.

Mrs. Louisa knights claim agaist
her husband, George q. knight, former
proprietor OF the city Hotel, will prob.
ably stand. as the appellate court holds
that register i'm insolvency did not err
i'm allowing the $iO.5OO claim made by
Mrs. knight. Counsel for creditors
called this claimant against Mr..
Knights estate Louise Lovely.
The opinion Of the court is as fol-
lows: "Matteson. G. J. The above
named George n. knight having been
ad1udged insolvent, has wife, Louisa
knight, proved her claim against his
estate for moneys loaned. amounting to
>lO.5O0. and the claim was duly allowed
by the reg ster. subsequently Hanley,
Huye * Co. other creditors OF the i'm
solvent. objected 10 the claim OF Mrs.
Knight and asked that IL be eXpungcd
and rejected. ia whole or IN part AZ
the hearing before the register. coun-
sci for Hanlcy. Hoye & Go. raised the
question whether Mrs. knight should
not be required To- prove her claim
anew The register ruled that she
should not. and-that- btifetAii-nt
showing cause why her claim should lee
rejected rested on the creditors object
ing &C. it's allowance. 20 which rGlins
counsel for the ob1ecting creditors uuly
excepted. After formal hearing OF
the matter. the register denied the mo-
ton to eNpungc and reject the claim
and allowed Il 10 stand as originally APP
proved.
THE case is now before us on the re-
port of the evidence given before the
register. transmitted TO the court by him
with his findings thereon. on request OF
the objecting cerditors, in accordance
with the statute.
"Our opinion is that the ruling of the
reg ster on the question of procedure
was correct. Gen. Laws Il. l., cap. 2,4.
sec. 20. provides that claims proved
shall be allowed by the reg
lister unless objected TO by some one
OF the parties in interest. Allowed
claims may be afterwards rejected Tor
cause shown, after notice and hearing
OF the parties Interested This langu-
age clearly implies that when the OBJ
lection To the claim does not come To
the attention OF the register until after
he had taken proof of the claim and
allowed &c, the burden of showing It's
validity shall rest on the creditor OBJ
jecting: the claim is To stand unless
for cause shown il be afterwards re-
jected.
We see no reason TO think that the
register erred in his finding on the evil
dence that the claim of Mrs. knight
was valid and should stand as origi-
nally proved.
Exception overruled and case remit
ted TO the register for further proceed
