KEPT A SPEAK EASY.
Joshua selvy Will Spend Nine Months
in Jail

For keeping what the police call a speak
easy" where whisky is sold on Sunday
Joshua Selvy, colored. this morning
sentenced to spend nine months in the
District jail. The defendant put up a
strong fight against conviction, and Judge
Kimball stated that the evidence was very
clear for guilt.
Officer Livingstone of the second precinct
police made the arrest. Last Sunday morn
ing he saw several persons under the in
fiuence of liquor in Shepherds alley north
west, and he suspected that someone was
selling liquor. He met a couple of colored
boys whom he knew and he asked them If
anything was doing. He gave them ten
cents to go and see if they could get a
drink They returned soon, reporting to the
officer that they had each had a drink of
whisky. Then the officer wished to get
further evidence. He marked a quarter,
and, giving it to the boys, told them to get
half pint for him with the quarter. The Of
ficer watched them go down the alley and
turn into the place where the defendant
was. and soon the boys came back and
gave the officer a half pint of whisky
which they said they had bought of Josh
Selyy.
The officer then arrested the colored man,
and he was taken to the station house.
There he was searched, and among other
moneys found on him was a marked quar-
ter. which the officer, when he saw it, iden-
tilted as the quarter he had given to the
boys to buy the liquor.
In defense, Selvy insisted that he had
received six quarters from his employers
the night before, and that he had not re-
ceved any money from the boys sent by
the officer and had not given any liquor to
the boys.
Did you examine the boys before you
sent them to see if they had any liquor on
themY' asked his honor of the officer.
mo, sir was the reply
That's where you made the mistake, -
commented his honor.
In giving his decision, Judge Kimball
made a lengthy review of the evidence,
which. he stated. was clear enough for con-
viction.

NEW STEAMER TO BE BUILT.
Addition to the Norfolk and Washing
ton Line in Prospect.

While Mr. John Callahan, manager of the
Norfolk and Washington Steamboat Com
many. was in Newport News few days
ago he arranged with the designing de-
partment of the shipyard for the plans for
a new sidewheel steamer for his line which
is ODE built during the coming year and
will be ready for service in the summer OF
1906 According to the outline plans given
by Mr.. Callahan to the shipyard designers
the new vessel is to be 80 feet long over
all and will be 80 feet wide on the water
line. and 30 feet wide on deck. She will
be fitted with inclined compound engines of
power sufficient to give her a speed of
eighteen or twenty miles an hour.
This type of engine removes the neces-
sity for large center house on the steam
er's deck and gives her wide and open
saloon and main deck. The new vessel IS
designed for day service and VIII nave no
staterooms, but in her saloon there Will be
eight large parlors fitted up for private
parties.
The steamer is being built primarily for
service during the coming jamestown eX-
position in celebration OF the first settle
ment of America, in 1907. The exposition
grounds are located on Hampton Roads
and the big naval display which the gov
eminent has arranged for the event viii
also occur in the roads and In lower Ches-
apeake bay, and there will be heavy de-
mand for steamers to transport passengers
from this city to the exposition, and the
new steamer will be used in this work
The steamer will also be run on day
light excursions to Norfolk and will make
trips on the river, and Will cost in the
neighborsood of $780,
In rebuilding the old ferry line wharf
here Mr.. Callahan will arrange berth for
his new ship at this pier. and she will take
on passengers to and from this point
When the plans are completed changes
that may be desired to Improve the steamer
may be made The steamer is designed
to be one of the finest sidewheel boats ever
on the Potomac.

Returned to Reform School.

Crying bitterly and pleading that he be
not returned to the reform school. from
which he is now out on parole, John Gill
lam was led out of the Police Court room
this morning after he had been sentenced
by Judge Scott to be returned to the reform
school. His mother had been brought into
court to tell what control she had over the
boy but the most she could say was that
the boy had promised to get a job if he got
out and would work. The boys face was
all expectancy during his mothers talk
but when the judge pronounced sentence
moment later his lips curled up and the
tears began to roll down his cheeks.
Gillian was in Police Court for the lar
ceny Of an ollcloth cover from NJ N.
Haines Mr. Haines testified that he had
seen Gillian take the cloth, tuck it under
his jacket and run down an alley with 1t.
Gillian denied that any one had seen him
take the oilcloth. He had pleaded guilty
when arraigned, however. Judge Scott
skillfully got the admission from the boy
that he had been let out of the reform
school only about a year ago. The boy
pleaded, however, that he should not be
sent there stating that he was not on pa
role from the reform school. COmmunica-
ton with the school, however, developed the
fact that the boy was on parole.

TAXING OF FRANCHISES
ARGUMENT RESUMED BEFORE
THE SUPREME COURT.
Mr.. Guthrie Points Out the Far-Reach-
ing Consequences of the Prin-
ciples Involved.

The argument in the New York fran
chise tax cases before the Supreme Court
of the United States was resumed when
the court convened at noon today. Will
liam d. Guthrie who had begun his pre-
sentation of the corporation side of the
question a few minutes before the court
adjourned yesterday. continued al length
He contended that the law is in contra
vention Of the Constitution of the United
States in that it impairs the obligation of
the contracts under which they &C
CURED and own their franchises and
operates to deny them due process of
law as guaranteed by the federal Consti-
tuition.
Experiment in Legislation.
Outlining the law under discussion, he
said that it is a new experiment in legis-
lation and subjects to a general law of
advalorem taxation the local or special
franchises or rights which are exercised
in public highways, streets etc, by cor
porations furnishing what are now COM
prehensively termed public utilities, such
as transportation. gas, electric lights, tel
ephones etc" He then called attention
to the fact that these franchises had not
been previously taxed by general law
and quoting from his brief in the case
added:
The subject is one of general interest
IN All IDe states. ana the lar-fe3cnlnS
consequences which must result from the
principles upon which the present cases
are determined invite the most careful
consideration.
A Matter of Great Concern.
ut is of great concern and interest to many
state governments and to numerous cor
porations similarly situated that this court
shall indicate whether existing contracts
granting such franchises protected
against impairment by this new form of
subsequent legislation, continued Mr.. Guth-
RE land whether such legislation must tax
all owners of franchises engaged in sub
stantially the same business and under sub
stantially the same conditions with equality
so far as practicable. If the present statute
is upheld, 1t undoubtedly will be followed by
similar legislation in every state, and II it
impairs existing contracts and embodieS
unjust and discriminating provisions it
ought not to be permitted to become a
precedent, when amendment of the stat
ute can easily obviate the objections
Giving figures to show the effect of the
law, Mr.. Guthrie said that the public rec
ords show that the amounts payable in 1900
by the Metropolitan Company and its leased
and subsidiary lines in respect of percent
ages on gross receipts and other franchise
payments amounted to S342 1853, and that
the present special franchise tax law in
creased these payments to $40. 629. He also
charged that the law is discriminatory as
among corporations and unconstitutional on
that account, well on account of it's
violation of contract.
