Washington, April 16-The supreme
court today decided cases involving
the stamp tax as it applies to express
packages, the question involved being
whether the shipper or the carrier
shall pay the express charges on pack
ages. The opinion was handed down
by Justice White and was favorable
to the express company. There were
two cases before the court involving
&he question at issue, but the opinion
was based upon the case of the Amer

General Maynard of the state of Michi-

from decision of the state supreme

adverse to the claims of the express

SET FOR HEARING.
The Supreme Court VIII Hear the
Kentucky Contest Case on the
30th Inst.

Washington, April 16-The cases IN,
volving the Kentucky governorship
were docketed in the United States
supreme court today. A brief in
which counsel for Taylor and Beck
ham Joined. was filed at the same time,
asking for an early hearing. In this
agreed statement 1t is set torch that
both Taylor and Beckham as governor,
John Marshall as lieutenant governor
on the republican side and L. H. Car
ter as president pro tenn OF the SEN
ate, and John B. Castleman as adju-
tant general on the democratic side,
are each and all claiming the right to
and actually attempting to exercise
the powers of their respective offices,
severally claimed by them, thus pro-
ducing great confusion in Kentucky

the persons named has lawful right

great injury and detriment of the peo-
pie of the state. The supreme court
advanced the case to be heard on the
3Oth inst, and gave each side four
hours for argument.
While Attorney Bruce was making
statement, the chief Justice asked
him if he did not expect the question
of Jurisdiction to be raised, and wheth-
er he did not also expect a motion to
dismiss. Bruce replied that both were
probable, but there was such confus-
ion in the state that all were anxious
for decision during the present term
of court, and that course was under
taken as apparently the only one prac-
ticable. He added, 'If the court
should sustain a motion to dismiss for
lack OF Jurisdiction, thar result would
of course end the controversy" If
the opinion on such motion should be
adverse to dismissal it would then be
admitted but probably be too late to
hear the case on its merits.
