BARRY FARM STREETS.
Opinion by Attorney Duvall Respe'
ing Their StatuA.

OplnlOn ny Attorney DuvaII respect
ing Their Status.
DIR. F. ]. Shadd recently called the atten-
ton Of the District Commissioners to the
fact that part of lot SO, in section 8 of the
subdivision Of Barry Farm, constitutes, ac-
cording to the Carpenter plat, half Of Ste
vens avenue Therefore, Dr. Shadd argued
that he should not be taxed for that por-
ton of the lot, and he suggested to the
Commissioners that they condemn all por-
tons of ground included in the highways
of the Barry Farm subdivision.
The District assessor, to whom the mat
ter was first referred by the Commission
ers. recommended that in view OF the fact
that the streets in this subdivision have
been recognized as public for the past
forty-three years definite action be taken
by them declaring all streets and avenues
therein public thoroughfares, and not to
be listed for taxation. The case was then
referred to the attorney for the District,
Mr.. A. B. Duvall, who has advised the
Commissioners that, in his opinion, there
is no necessity to condemn the land within
the area of the highways of the subdiy1-
sion, because such highways were suffi-
GENTLY dedicated by the map Of the subdi-
vision. and because they have BEEN as re-
ported by the assessor, recognized as nigh
ways for almost half century. Mr.. Du-
vail also stated that in his opinion the as
SCISSOR should be directed to enter as ex-
empt from taxation so much Of each lot in
the subdivision as constitutes part OF any
highway or street therein.

SUPREME COURT DECISIONS.
OpiniOns of Interest Handed Dow
Yesterday Afternoon.

Opinions of Interest Handed Down
Yesterday Afternoon.
Several interesting decisions were handed
down by the United States Supreme Court
yesterday afternoon.
In the case Of George H. Earle. receiver
Of the Chestnut Street National Bank of
Philadelphia agt. the commonwealth Of
Pennsylvania the court reversed the de-
cfsion of the supreme court of Pennsylva-
mia. The opinion was to the effect that the
failure of a bank does not deprive a cred
itor of his lien on bank, but that he must
apply to the controller for relief.
Justice Harlan handed down the opinion
Of the court in the case of G. W. Smith, re-
ceiyer of the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad
COMPANY agt. Truman Reeves. treasurer of
the state Of California. The case involves
the validity of the action of the California
state board of appraisement in the taxation
of railroad property The opinion delivered
yesterday affirms the decision of the circuit
court of appeals for the ninth circuit, winch

atty being both fine and Imprisonment. In
this case the commissioners built bridge
over the Muskingum river. and when the
canal alongside the stream was raised by
the United States the bridge became an OBJ
structon. The opinion was handed down
by Justice Harlan, and he held that as the
commissioners had no money with which to
remodel the bridge. and no power to raise
the money, they could not be held liable I'M
der the law.
