Higgins EGpected.
[RY rELEaRAPH 20 rHE rRIBrNE.l


Albany, May 15-GoVernor Higgins is expected
here tomorrow, and it is thought that there
will be an immediate announcement Of the dates
of hearings on the important bills awaiting
his action. OF equal Importance will be the
Governors decision with reference TO calling an
extra session. primarily to dispose Of the charges
against Justice Warren B. Hooker.
A persistent rumor exists here that extra
session will be called and that the Hooker case
will go over TO the next regular session of the
legislature. This seems to be the settled belief
of a large number of the politically we'll in
formed about the Capitol. but in the Governors
absence no definite information can be obtained
here
The following are the more important OF the
bills that are awaiting the Governor. on many
Of which applications for hearings have already
been made: Six gas bills, including the State
Public Service Commission measure; Mayor Nc
CleIlans water bill, the State Water Commits
sion bill. measures destroying the Aldermen's
franchise powers. which have been vetoed by
Mayor Mcclellan; bills providing for inspection
Of Raines law hotels. approved by the City Club,
and two mortgage tax bills. This list. with
number of less important bills. includes practi-
caIIy all the significant legislation of the present
session which, owing to its delay in the legis-
lature, now awaits executive action.

SURE SHE HELD PISTOL.
JUSTICE DAVIS SPEAKS.
Says Mss Patterson Lied to Jury IN
Her Second Trial.

Justice Vernon NJ. Davis of the Supreme
Court, the guest of honor last night at
the monthly dinner Of the Phi Delta Phi Club.
an organization of lawyers in this city. He
presided the first two trials of Miss Nan
Patterson. and, to the surprise Of some law
yers at the dinner. he gave his opinion of the
guilt of Miss Patterson. saying in part:
We have heard a great deal in the public
press of late of severe criticism Of Mr.. Rand
and hls conduct OF the trial. 1 had the honor
TO preside at two trials of this young woman
With the exception of the late Colonel John
r. Fellows. I think Mr.. Rand is the most elo-
quent prosecutor l have ever heard. You can't
prosecute a criminal without telling what you
believe TO be the truth
In the second trial before me the defendant
went on the stand. and It quite obvious
that she was telling falsehoods from beginning
to the end. The very air seemed charged with
the fact that she was lying Yet she was a
woman. She young. II was natural that
the public should sympathtze with her. People
truth. and the great public Of New-York said:
why shouldn't she lie? Let her lie. Let her
get the benefit Of her lies"
But to-day, in the light of the last disag gree
ment, l feel sure that most people are convinced,
that a majority of the people believe. that the
pistol that killed Caesar" Young was held by
Nan Patterson, discharged by her, was
bought by J. Morgan Smith in an attempt to
get money from Caesar Young for the sup
port of the combined family. I don't mean to
say that she took the pistol from the rettcule
and shot him in the side but do believe that
she had the pistol and showed it 10 Cesar"
Young An argument followed. and he took
hold of it. In the conversation and consequent
struggle the pistol went off and the man was
killed.
I believe moreover, that had she told the story
on the witness stand it really happened, IN
other words had she told the truth that second
jury would have acquitted her. She adhered TO
her lies and instead of getting an acqmttal'
there was a disagreement.
Daniel O'Reilly. one of counsel for Miss Pat
terson said last night.
There is nothing to warrant Justice Davis
making such a statement Nan was on the
stand before him. and Mr.. Rand CrOss-eXamined
her for one whole day. She was not contra
dicted in one statement. Justice Davis says she
lied TheD why did the prosecution con-
tradict her statement? Why Justice Davis
should make such a statement l do not know.
II is a great SUNRISE to

MORTGAGE TAXBY STAMPS
Senator Page Ready to SuppIar1t
Present Bill zcith Nezc One.

Senator Alfred r. Page Is going to Albany to-
morrow to ask Governor Higgins to request the
legislature. when it meets in extra session TO
consider the Hooker case next month, to pass
a new mortgage tax biIl-the one introduced by
Senator Page in the last days of the session.
Senator Page says that the present mortgage
tax bill is sure to be a disappointment, and he
will try to induce the Governor TO veto 1t and
call for the introduction Of a brand new meas
framed by himself.
1.-The committee bill. framed by Senator Lewis"
said Senator Page yesterday, provides for the
imposition Of a charge of one-half of per cent on
mortgages recorded subsequent to July l, 1905.
The first year the tax is virtually & recording
tax. but afterward it is a regular annual tax
mortgages, found the record, and the
charge is collectibe from the mortgagee If the
tax is not paid as stipulated by the law no pay
ment on the mortgage is valid and the
mortgage IS liable to seizure for the satisfaction
Of the tax. Elaborate and cumbersome ma
chinery is provided for the collection Of the tax.
1t rs doubtful if this bill, assuming that it be-
comes a law, proves to be practicable in its
forcement. Senator Stranahan. after study of
the mortgage taxation matter for two solid
years. abandoned the attempt to collect a tax
from recorded mortgages
Il think better plan will be found in the
bin introduced by myself toward the close Of
along TO be voted final passage. This
bill provides for stamp tax on the recording
and conveyances Of mortgages, payable only
once. There would be possible evasion, be-
cause the method of enforcement is entirely
simple and straightforward The measure i'm
poses tax of one-half of 1 per cent the
recording Of mortgages and the same charge
a conveyance.
This bill would raise an estimated revenue
Of about $3,OO0O00 a year. one-half of which
would go to the State, the other half revert
ing the locality where collected. The State
Controller would sell the stamps to the vari-
county officials throughout the State. A
record would be kept in each county, and on
the returns the State Controller would credit
the various recording officers with their transaC
tions, and once a year would turn over TO the
proper officials one-half the gross sum collected
the sale of stamps.
The money thus paid to the city of
New-York would 60 into the sinking fund and
apply to reduction of the annual tax levy,
while in the other counties it would be credited
TO the various school funds. This bill would
make the tax payable by the mortga gor, and in
that way it would he different from the bill
awaiting the Governors signature, the
under that bill viii be paid by the mortgagee."
