Utility Bill, the TAI laws and several

49, The principal event Of the week has
been in regard to the tar laws. The
large committee appointed a few weeks
ago by Speaker Cheney bad nothing
before it in practical working form upon
which they could submit report to the
House. In order that the matter might
come before them iu some form the tax

Senate for its action thereon. The mat

DAVIS SUNS UP.
The sutton Case Has Reached the
Concluding Stage.

Annapolis, Nd, Aug. 13.-The ses-
sion of the court of inquiry investigat-
Ing the death of Lieutenant James N.
Sutton, U. S. NJ. c., reached the con-
Guiding stage today when Henry E.
Davis counsel for Mrs. Sutton, the
mother of Lieutenant Sutton, summed
up his case. The announcement of the
Judge advocate that he would present
no argument, Mr.. Davis said, placed
on himself a burden he had not ex-
pected to be called on to hear. He
would review the testimony only in
the broadest manner, he said.
Mr.. Davis went back to the coming
of Lieutenant Sutton to Annapolis and
to her country's SERVICE" He re-
ferred to the neutenant'S hopes and
aspirations as shown by letters to his
mother and brother, and to the events
OF the day prior to his tragedy, his
companions, ETC., arguing that every
thing tended to negative the idea that
lAieutenant Sutton contemplated sui
eide. He criticized the composition of
the original board of inquest of which
the recorder was Lieutenant E. S. Will
ling, but for whose dereliction, Mr..
Davis said, Lieutenant Sutton might
stu be alive.
The board of inquest, he said, acted
with indecent haste, with no notice to
upon him the brand of suicide, thus
denying him Christian burial accord
ing to the family faith and consigning
him to an unconsecrated grave; strip
/ ping his parents of hope of a reunion
with him hereafter and condemning
him, as thev were compelled to be-
1ieve to eternal punishment.
