MUCH-DIsCUSSED FRONTAGE
TAX CASE
PRESIDENT OF FEDERAL COURT
The Decision in NarwoOd VS.. Baker,
Tried Before United, States SUI
preme Court, Is Taken
a Basis.

The supreme court yesterday granted a
new hearing in the water frontage tax
case between the county of Ramsey and
the Robert P Lewis company. AT its
last sitting the court rendered a decision
in favor of the defendant, declaring that
the tax was unconstitutional. The coun-
ty appealed, and the hearing is now set
for June A.
Ia this case the sIpcem9 court fol-
lowed out the same lines as We're formed
by the case of Narwood vs.. Baker before
the United States supreme court, hich
was decided and tken reversed, the lat
ter action having been taken about
week ago. In the case before the Unit
ed States supreme court, which was a
general case, the court originally held
that the tax levied upon the tasis of
benefit derived was void, and that it
should be levied upon the amount of
frontage This decision it reversed, how
ever, going back to the old theory of
taking the amount of benent as the basis
of assessment
The tax levied in the case involved in
this state is 10 cents a lineal foot, and
the amount of taxes reaches something
over 100000.

WIRES UNDERGROUND
AT WILL
HENNEPIN BENCH REVERSED
Ordinance Requiring Northwestern
Telephone Company to Place
Their Wires in COnduits
Unreasonable.

For the second time the supreme court
has decided that the city of Minneapolis
cannot, through its council, arbitrarily
extend the underground territory of
telephone lines beyond the points neces-
sary for the best interests of the NUM-
Cipal government.
Last fall the decision was reached
and at that time Chief Justice Start and
Justice Brown dissented. That was in
the case of the Northwestern Telephone
company, appellant, VS.. the city of Min
neapolis ct al, appellants. Yesterday
the decision was repeated on the re-
argument Of the case. Chief Start alone
dissented. In both these instances the
Hennepin county courts decision mas
been reversed.
Chief Justice Start assigned as his rea-
son for dissenting that the reasonable
ness of the order for the extension Of
the subway wire district was a question
of fact to be properly determined by the
district court of Hennepin county.
This case grew out of the action of
Minneapolis in passing through its city
council an ordinance which arbitrarily
extended the Underground wire district
over a large portion of the city and or
dering all telephone poles and wires
removed and the wires placed under
ground The company took the matter
to the courts and the district court of
IASlIllSPlil COullly ouSee1ihSU liC OilS . O-
dinance.
Justice Lovely writes the answer and
holds:
First-That, under the general laws Of
this state, section rs, chapter "a, Revision
of 1866, as amended by chapter 70 OF the
General Laws 1881, section 2641 G.. S.
1894. that telephone companies are given
the right to erect poles and wires with
in the urban ways and streets of this
state as well as upon rural highways.
SecOnd-That the provisions of the
charter of Minneapolis confers upon that
city no authority to arbitrarily order
removal of such poles and wires, but only
the right to regulate the placing of the
same in its streets and to compel the
telephone companies to put their wires
in SubSurface conduitS when reason, con-
Venience or the good government of the
municipality requires.
Joseph Conron and John H. Conron, CO.
partners Conron Bros, respondents,
vs.. +. G.. Hoerr, appellant.
First-Upon an appeal from a judg-
ment on verdict where no case has been
signed or bill of exceptions settled by
the trial court, the only question that
can be reviewed in this court is the suf-
fciency of the pleadings to sustain such
judgment.
Second-The objection that dispositions
were improperly handed to the jury on
their retirement cannot be considered in
this court upon aff1davlts of the parties
or their counsel showing the alleged er-
rorS
Third-Such alleged errors of law can
only be reviewed upon a settled case or
bill of exceptions. Judgment affirmed.

Railway Company of Minnesota, ap-
First-The complaint in this action
states that appellant operated a railroad
in the. state of Wisconsin, and engaged
a,,ar b+idg fsot gang at West Superior to
reconstruction of bridges along its line.
AS a part Of the consideration of tue
hiring contract. appellant, agreed to daily
transport the men to and from West Su-
perior to the station nearest the place
of their days labor by means of its T g
ular trains, and for their transpor alton
from such station to their point of work
they were furnished handcars to be pro-
PEELED by themselves.
While respondent. who was one of the
crew, was riding on handcar from the
place of that days work to a station,
where they would board appellants train
back to West Superior, another hand
car, propelled by other members of the
same gang overlook the first car; was
negligently propelled against it, derailing
1t and causing injury to respondent. One
OF the handles on the front end Of the
rear car, as it was then approaching, was
broken OFF, and because of its absence

Second-Appellant was guilty of con-
tributory negligence in failing to provide

such circumstances.
Third-The defective handle may, under
the circumstances, have been the proxi-
mate cause of the injury, and the proper
rule in such case is as follows

quences which a prudent and experienced
