Sewer Lien Is Attacked.

William Brooke Rawle, of Philadel-
phia, who with Benjamin 3. Comegys
and Francis +. Eastlack, jr, control
the Henry Beckett estate, as trustees,
filed an affidavit Of defense yesterday
to the municipal lien based on the as
sessment made against the estate for
the construction of the Stipp court
sewer.
The defense alleges that the assess
ment was not made in accordance with
the ordinance. which prescribes that
the cost of the sewer shall be charged
against the abutting properties, accord
ing to the foot front rule.
1t is averred that the whole cost OF
the sewer north Of Vine street, $94S55,
was assessed against the Beckett lands.
while the lands on the opposite side of
the court were wholly exempt, although
they abut on the line of the sewer and
have the same rights Of access as the
occupants Of the Beckett lands.
1t is claimed the city in this case
has adopted a vicious and illegal basis
of assessment, contrary to law and to
the provisions Of the ordinance, under
which the sewer was built.
The defense Is based on the recent
ruling of Judge Archibald in the Han,
nah Levers case, i'm which 1t was held
that all abutting property must be
taxed, and not only such as has moi
previously paid a sewer assessment
w. w. Lathrepe Is attorney for the

membered, in which the husband al
leges his wife treated him cruelty.
threatened to kill him, put powdered
glass in his food. and on another Oc-
casion poisoned his coffee.
He left her. she says, not because

formed an unlawful relation with an
other woman.
She then specifically denies that she
ever attempted to poison him. or that
she put ground glass in his food, and
says she verify believes that he. him
SELF wickedly and maliciously put, or
caused to be put, such glass into his
food with view OF creating a false
appearance Of the respondents guilt.
AS to the allegation that on Decem-
ber 90, 1899. she put poison in his cot
fee, making him seriously Ill. she says
she believes the sicknes was feigned, OF
contrived by some device of his own
for the like wicked and unlawful pur.
pose Of creating false appearance OF

II the constables and magistrates
collect their mon est inventus" fees
they will have to do 1t through suit.
Despite the supreme court decision
which apparently entities them to
these fees and the action of the late
board of county commissioners in pay
ing several o, the claims. the new
county commissioners have determined
not to honor these bills until COM
PEELED to do so by an order Of court.
mon est inventus" fees are those
charged In cases where the party on
whom the costs are placed cannot be
und. or at least are returned by the
sheriff as mot found.' The sheriff and
other county officials get their costs
from the county In these cases, but
the constables. aldermen and justices
of the peace ard called upon to whistle
for their costs.
This, the latter claim, Is an injustice.
They feel they are as much entitled
to be paid by the county as are the
sheriff and clerk and claim that there
is nothing in the law making a dis
tinction between their bills and those
OF the county officials. They further
allege that the sheriff does not make
diligent effort to find the mulcted par
ties, as he has no particular incentive
to a thorough search. If he was COM
PEELED to wait for his fees till the
party was found and the costs collect
ed there would be vastly fewer mon
est inventus" returns, the constables
and magistrates say.
When the supreme court decision In
question was submitted to the last
board of county commissioners they
took it under consideration and just
before retiring from Office paid two
claims on which suits had been
brought.
The other claimants took It for
granted that their bills would likewise
be paid and for the past three months
the commissioners Office has been
fairly haunted by the claimants de-
manding a settlement. The new com.
nissioners looked into the matter
found that these claims amount to
"' that they extend over n period
of four years. that some of them, to
say the least, are questionable. and
that. at all events. 1t would be bad
! policy to adopt the precedent estab-
lished in the last few days Of the for
mer commissioners term until court
had passed upon the matter. A mem.
Der Of court. giving an Informal opin'
ion in the matter. said: Don't pay
them. If they have just claims le,
| them establish them In the prescribed
way" The commissioners propose tt
be guided by this advice.
