mess taxed" The language was used
In the case of Newton against Polk
county in which the plaintiff tried to
prevent the collection of mulct tax
assessed against her property on ac-
count of the mulct saloon conducted
therein, whose owner did not pay the
tax. The contention of the plaintiff
was that the mulct tax was not tax
but license and must be collected by
ordinary judicial procedure instead of
execution. The court decided that II
is In fact a tax and not license and
shall be collected as any other tax.
The court finds not only in the pay
ment OF this tax no bar against prose-
cution, but IL is a tax not applied to
all persons who sell liquor-permit
holders, for instance, being exempt
The court relterates tho decision that

The supreme court adjourned on
the 10th without handing down an
opinion In the biennial elections
amendment case. 1t Is believed that
this decision will not be made before
the first Monday In April. The court
does not convene again until that
date. Its members may meet some
time during the latter part OF the
month, but this is not likely. Under
the Polk county primary law the audi
tor OF the county has duties to per-
form on the Monday on which the
court Is next dated to meet, IL the
biennial election law Is set aside. The
question arises as to whether he
should proceed to perform these duties
In order to be on the safe side or
should allow them to go.

The supreme court set aside the
order made recently by Judge Bishop
In relation to the Iowa county liquor
cases. An effort was made In these
cases to take an appeal to the SUI
preme court on preliminary matters,
not the main cause which has not yet
been tried out. Pending the session
OF the court Judge Bishop issued an
order In stay OF proceedings In the
district court of Iowa county. The
supreme court took up the matter and
decided that the preliminary ques-
lions were not appealable, set aside
the temporary order and the cases
now must come to trial in the Iowa
district court on their merits. The
cases which involve the sufflciency of
petition Of consent have been docket
ed for trial at the present term of the
district court and will be bitterly
fought by the saloon men and the
Anti-Saloon league. The Anti-SaIoon
league declares that the petition filed
by the saloon men is wholly INSULT
cient. The saloon men are operating
their places and will continue to do
so until the case Is decided In the
lower courts here, at least

Young Belgian Sinks His
Identity When Arrested for
Thefts From Requa Home
PLAYS HOUSE SERVANT
Mysterious Prisoner Steals
Valuable Bric-a- -Brac Be-
longing to General Long
PLAYS HOUSE SERVANT
Oakland Office San Francisco Call,
1016 Broadway, Jan. Is.

rOl6 Broadway, Jan. 49,
With his identity buried under
name he admits is assumed, a young
Belgian of good family was arrested
this afternoon on charge of stealing
valuable bric-a-brac and household be-
longings from Brigadier General Oscar
F. Long at Highlands, the Piedmont
home of the Isaac L. Requas. The pris-
oner gave the name of Eugene Legros,
said he was 20 years old and sales
, man. This description, he confessed,
was untrue, and has been taken In an
effort to conceal his real self and his
fate from kinsmen across the sea.
I.egros had been employed at the
Requa residence as a household SER
, want. But there is every indication
that that was not his real station in
life. While there at work he had ac-
cess to the home and to the storerooms,
where a large quantity Of valuable
!. china, brassware and other belongings
Of General Long were temporarily
boxed. From these articles, IT is
charged, Legros helped himself and
sold the stolen wares among second
hand shops in this city and San Fran
CISCO None of the property was miss
ed until a few days ago, when the po-
lice notified General Long. 1t was
through Detective Shorey that the pur-
Joining was discovered.
That officer a few weeks ago found
that second hand stores were receiving
rare chinaware, brasses and high
grade garments in a quantity and OF a
character that aroused Shorey's sus-
picions. He traced the man who had
been selling the unusual merchandise,
and was given an explanation Dy
Legros that temporarily satisfied the
detective. But Shorey persisted until
he finally located the source or the
young Belgian's supply. AS soon as
General Long had investigated ne
missed many of the family's pos
sessions. Legros was followed to San
Francisco to-day and there placed un-
der arrest while he was disposing OF
some chinaware.
General Long swore to a warrant
charging Legros with larceny.
Under pressure of questioning by the
police Legros gave enough information
to enable General Long to recover most
of the stolen goods.
Legros is tall, athletic of build and
refined in appearance and manner. Dis
claiming ability to speak English well,
the mysterious young foreigner con-
yersed fiuently in French, and by ac-
cent and manner gave every indication
of knowledge of the upper side OF life.
OF his antecedents he politely but flrm-
~ IeIuScQ W tc1lhs OShCA Shuh W SOY
he had come to, America five months
ago from Brussels. He said the Bel
gian capital was his home, but touch
upon his family connections brought
only a quiet evasion as tears filled his
eyes.
Legros, representing himself as
house servant. went to work at the
Requas six weeks ago. HIS conduct
was excellent and not the slightest
suspicion attached to him. The police
will make efforts to trace Legros back
to Belgium.
