Attorneys for Defendants.
The complaint and the answer in
the case, which are voluminous. con-
tain a full and complete statement of
the action of the aldermen and the
committee which passed on the pc
titions from the moment that they
were presented to the Board until
their final rejection as not containing
one third of the voters under the
construction of the act by the alder
men. The matter of the purging of
the lists is therefore clearly stated
in the record and the Supreme Court
would be justified if it saw fit in
taking cognizance thereof even
though it was not adverted to in the
Judgment of the court. Since Mr.
Battle states that he will call the at
ton of the court to the matter it now
SENS that the court will DO
nat it is stated by several aldermen
is their wish, construe the statute
with reference to the entire action
taken on the question of the petitions
from beginning to the end of the
election agitation. While these al
dermen would have preferred for til
matter to be fully argued. it is felt
that the Court will look ct the whole
transaction with the view of giving
the act final, complete and definite
construction
CITY Attorney snow stated yeSter-
day that it could not be said when
the matter would be heard by the
Supreme Court That is a question
entirely within the discretion of the
Court The CITY and the petitioners
will ask that the case be submitted
at the earliest moment without tho
ordinary printed record and with no
printed briefs. If the regular course
were taken 1t would now be too late

EARLY REVIEW
OF MANDAMUS
For Supreme Court Con-
tains All Facts.
THE JUDGME ENT SIGNED
While Only POlI-Tax,Question Was De-
cided, Mr.. Battle Will Call Courts
Attention to Further Doubt as to
AIdermen's Right to Purge
Registration Books.

In the Superior Court yesterday
Judge Justice signed the writ of man
damus to which he had on Tuesday
decided that the petitioners for an
election for saloons were entitled di-
recting the Board of Aldermen to
forthwith assemble and call the cleo
ton asked for in the petition to be
held after thirty days notice as re-
quired by the provisions of the
Watts act
AS stated yesterday would be the
case the judgment sets forth that It
is understood and agreed that the
only question involved is one of law.
whether or not the payment of poll
tax prior to the first of May, 1905,
was necessary qualification of pc
titioner under the provisions of the
statute.
With reference to the other ques-
ton which seems Of great Importance
to some able lawyers: to-wit wheth
er or not the real intent of the act was
that the registration books should be
taken as they stand as an arbitrary
standard fixed by law from which to
reckon the number of petitions ne
CesSary to call an election and that
therefore any purging of the books
for any purpose, even the removal OF
"deads" and removes" as practiced
by the aldermen is unwarranted,w while
unrecognized in the Judgment it
may yet reach the attention of the
Supreme Court by way of the plead
ings which are made part OF the
record.
When seen with reference to this
matter yesterday, Mr.. r. H. Battle,
attorney for the Aldermen, stated
Il &lnE, fsh III
tax question was the only point in the
case, and while he would not argue
to the Supreme Court the question of
purging of the lists by the Alder
men, he would in view of the fact
that there seemed to be disSatiSfac-
ton that the point had not been ar
gued on the hearing, call the atten-
ton of the Supreme Court to the
matter to the end that If they de-
sired to do so they could pass on that
question as we'll as the other.

ANTI -RATERS QUIT
President Has Practically Won His
fisht...many Senators Have
=. -,..., Seen. a Great Light. ....,....:

Washington, -. ~, No~. 90
The president wins again. Opposi'
ton to the administration railroad
rate programme il disintegratine
and in a panic and the indications
are that the presidents ideas will
not only be incorporated in the bill
reported to the senate, but that the
bill will pass the senate and become
a law.
A week ago no such state OF
affairs existed. Since then what
amounts to a revolution, a STAN
pede, scramble has occurred. The
first of the week, it is said, there
was not New England senator in
favor Of the presidents plans, and
there were scattering senators
throughout the counrty opposed to
the administration g rate bill.
A mighty change has taken place.
Now the word ''scattering" alone
sizes up the opposition to the presi-
dents programme. The solid New
England line has been broken and
many of it's senators have FASTENED
this week to get into the band
wagon. Senator Hopkins is in line;
Sentor Kittredge, of South Dakota;
who may not have been opposed to
the administration bill, but who has
been placed in that class, is said to
be with the president. Senator Till
man said today that there would
not be over four democratic senators
in the south against the bill, and
he doubted If there would be- that
many. It is even declared upon
of q member Of the
senate interstate commerce COM
,nittee tonight that Chairman
Elkins is wavering and that he also
will join the presidents staff with
in a few days. The pressure from
his home state of West Virginia is
unbearable. he must
join the president or lose his seat
in the senate. The people are up
in arms and threaten him with a
democratic Legislature which would
elect a democrat to succeed him un-
less he changes front.
tits interesting to note that one
OF the principal factors in bringing
about this state of affairs has been
the firm attitude of Senators Do(liver
and Cullom. Had they weakened
the present panic would not have
developed. The New England
senators, backed by New York,
New Jersey, Michigan, California
and other states, proposed to come
