tional Express train No. "a, on the New York
Central Railroad wa almost totally wrecked
but with no loss OF life. Seven cars were
piled up, covering the entire roadbed.

but struck for an advance in wages. About
forty Italians were in this city yester-
day trying to induce some Of their
countrymen to stop work on the track

Thorn across the fields, firing at them. Five
strikers were arrested and fined for tres

STOCK TRANSFER TAX TEST
70 BE Made in the U. 8. Supreme Court OF
Broker Hatch's Appeal.

The constitutionality Of the law imposing
a tai on stock transfers is TO be tested in the
United States Supreme Court by the brokers
whose interests are affected. John G. Mil
burn, as counsel for Albert j. Hatch, the
broker who offered TO make a test case by
refusing TO pay the tax and submitting to
arrest, has obtaineda writ Of error from
Justice Peckham OF the United States
Supreme Court, allowing IN appeal from
the recent decision OF the Court Of Appeals
at Albany which upheld the law as constitu-
tional.
Mr.. Hatch got his liberty on a writ Of
habeas corpus, but the Court Of Appeals
decision remanded him to custody. The
income from the transfer tax is estimated at
S5, 200, 900, all Of which comes out Of the
pockets Of brokers or their customers, at
the rate of two cents on every 500 of par
value OF stock which Ia bought or sold. The
brokers contend that the law deprives them
Of their property without due process and is,
therefore, unconstitutional.
It Is expected that the appeal will be
heard In Washington at the October session
Of the Supreme Court. Mean while Mr..
Hatch Ia at large in the nominal custody Of
his counsel,
