Soon after Duvall was removed to the

mistakable in smallpox cases appeared. DIR.
Woodward thereupon invited the warden
to come to the hospital and have a look at
the patient. The warden did not take ad-
vantage of the opportunity.

DR.. Woodward then had a number of
photographs Of the sick man taken. Now
he has again extended invitation to

the Jail officials today DR.. Woodward says:
Permit me to remind you Of the invita-
ton extended to you on the Goth ultimo to

purpose of observing the subsequent de-
velopments IN the case of Samuel Duvall,
removed from the United States jail at that
time in an early stage of smallpox. This

MAYOR FAvORS CIRCUITS BILL.
President Wells at Hearing Opposes Chang
ing Date for Tax Collection.

Controller Grout warmly defended and President
Wells of the Tax Board warmly argued against
the Controllers bill for changing the date for the
collection of city taxes from October to January,
at the hearing on the bill before the Mayor yes
terday.
Mr. Wells said if the law could be put into
effect without inconvenience to the city it would
be a step the direction Of economy, but he
feared the bill as drawn, In direct conflict
with many provisions of the present law. and that
1t would give rise to much litigation. Theodore
Stro declared the bill full of Irregularities that
would give rise to a large amount of litigation.
Controller Grout said the objections OF Mr.. Wells
were without merit and that the only opposition to
the bill was from people who wished to prevent the
relief the city would gain. He declared that tax
payers would receive fair treatment under the
new bill as under the present law
The Mayor said he was thoroughly in sympathy
with the purpose of the BILL but reserved decision.
