WHY HE CAME
BACK TO FLORIDA

In the St. Petersburg Independent
OF yesterday Willis Powell, who has
announced his purpose to return to
Florida from Columbus, Ca, and es-
tablish daily paper at Clearwater
in Pinellas county, tells in a char
acteristic letter why he came back
and we take the following from it
as good reading for us all. Willis
has now tried 'em all over, Califor-
MIA, Georgia, and the North, where
he originated, and Florida is his
one best bet. He says:
Il have been asked why I am re-
turning to Florida and the newspa-

Editor Jordan, of the Punta Cor
da Herald, says that in the present
senatorial alignment in this State
he may be recognized by his "atti-
tude of superb sangfrefd F" That may
be his attitude, but we doubt if any
of his friends would recognize him
in any such outlandish habiliments.
Monocle, cane, spats and imported
accent are all necessary 10 state
of superb sangfroid'' and we can
as easily picture our good friend of
the Herald doing the tango or the
grizzly hug or cakewalk. Editor
Jordan is too positive in his convic-
tlon, too conscientious in his sense
of duty to his State and too init
mately familiar with Florida poll
tics and politicians for many years
to be- neutral or negative in the
senatorial contest, and when the
campaign has progressed sufficiently
to get the State press well warmed
up we expect to see him in the thick
OF the fight as an unqualified advo-
cate of the reelection of Senator
Fletcher Mark the prediction
and don't forget our wide spread
and well-deserved reputation as

The Lakeland News, second to no
weekly paper in the State, goes out
today, as it does each week, to hun
dreds of people in the territory trib-
utary to Lakeland. There are scores
OF families that read no other news
paper. Yet it contains scarcely any
advertising of Lakeland merchants,
and were it not for the foreign ad-
vertising its age and standing com
mands the paper would be forced to
suspend. The Cut Price Store is a
notable exception among Lakeland

something to do with the crowds OF

Charles L Manning, husband of
Harriet E. Manning, who was muir
dered in her home, 219 Warren street,

ability to pay judgment of S496 and
costs before Lester Paeh as advis-
ory master in chaneery Monday
morning. The examination will be
conducted in Mr.. Pach's office in the
Essex building.
The judgment under which Man.
ming Is to be examined was obtained
by Peter F. Cunningham, an under
taker, of 3l3 Warren street, and is the
amount due for Mrs. Manning's flu
neral. Manning retained Cunning
ham, agreeing to pay not more than
$500 for his services. The total bill
amounted to $496. but Manning re-
fused to pay.
William j. Dowd, as attorney for
Cunningham, brought the suit, and a
defense ON Mannings behalf was
made by Frank M. McDermit When
the case came to trial in the First
District Court, however. there was
no appearance and judgement was
taken by default.
Execution under the judgment was
issued to Constable Fleming, but
Manning told him that he had no
property and no means with which to
pay the judgment. Thereupon Mr..
Dowd obtained the order for Man
ning's examination.

INJURED IN
FALL OF STABLE
Loft Falls, Burying Men and
Horses Under Tons
of Hay.

Two men were injured and twenty
five horses were partly buried in loose
hay, when a loft in q stable in the
rear of 200 Eighth avenue, collapsed
early today.
The injured men are Tony Bitale, a
stableman, who sustained fractures
of the left shoulder and left arm and
Commissions about the body, and Gut
seppe Victoria, also a stableman, who
sustained fractured leg and bruises
about the body and head.
The two men were asleep on the
second floor at the time of the ac-
cident. The loft had been overloaded
and without giving any warning the
floor suddenly collapsed. Most of the
hay was pitched out of the front door.
Some of it went through to the Sec
ond floor. The two stablemen were
struck by falling beams.
Patrolman William Desmond and
Joseph Donnelly of the Second pre-
cinct, were passing at the time. They
went to the rescue. In the excitement
that followed the accident, someone
sent in a call for the fire department.
The policemen who went to the as
sistance of the horses found the
equines peacefully eating their way
out of the mess OF hay. They were
led to the street.
The injured men were transferred
to the City Hospital, where they were
treated
Carmine Filippone. the owner of
the stable, said today his loss would
be 1900.

Collector Estimates That ST.
800, 900 Has So Far Been
Received in Local Office.

Collector Charles V. Duffy today
estimated that 81 100000 had been re-
ceived at the local internal revenue
office in payment of income tax. The
time for filing income tax returns ex-
pired yesterday including an extern
sion of ten days from the regular

ternal revenue district, the headquar-
tiers of which is located in the Fed
eral building, this city The district
comprises all of northern New Jer-
sey. 1t was estimated that about 81,
100000 would be paid into the local
office

made to tabulate the exact amount
received. About ten per cent. of the
amount due at the local office had
not been received up to noon today
The income taxpayers who failed
to file their returns are liable to a
fine of five per cent. of the amount
of their tax bills. The regulations
provide that the fine shall be paid
in monthly instruments of one per
cent. a month.

HOME RULE ACT
INVALID, COURT
OF ERRORS RULES
Justices, in Holding 1t Unconsti-
tutional, Say It Is "Spe-
cial Legislation"
special to the Evening Star.

TRENTON. July 11.-By vote OF
IL to 2, the Court of Errors and APP
peals yesterday declared unconstitu-
tional the Hennessy home rule act for
commission government cities. The
constitutionality of the act was upheld
bv Justices Minturn and Black, both
of Hudson County. The decision is
an affirmance of the opinion given by
Justice Trenehard in the Supreme
Court.
The decision setting aside the act
will have practically no effect upon
Trenton, Atlantic City, Jersey City
and the score or more other
municipalities in the State that now
have commission government and
they will continue as though the act
had not been passed.
The cases decided by the court are
those of former Park Commissioner
Harry f. Smith, and three cases OF
the Delaware River Transportation
Company against the city of Trenton,
and they involved the question of the
right of the city under the Hennessy
act to condemn river front land for
the purposes of park Improvement.
Justice Trenchard, who wrote the
o,inion, held the act unconstitutional.
principally on the ground that 1t con-
travened the provision of the Consti-
tuition prohibiting special laws reg
ulating the internal affairs of NUM-
cipalities.
The Hennessy act provided, in an
amendment to the Walsh act, that
all municipalities except counties and
school districts that have hereto-
fore adopted or shall hereafter adopt
the Walsh act, shall be and hereby
declared to be a distinct class of
municipalities and shall not be sub
ject to any laws of the State except
laws applicable to all municipalities
of this State other than counties and
school districts
In addition TO the constitutionality
of the act and the right of the Walsh
act cities to issue bonds and con-
denim lands there we're also many
other municipal functions involved in
the proceedings, and had the Court
OF Errors reversed the Supreme Court
and held the act valid there would
have been presented a serious situa-
ton that these various functions had
been abrogated in the commission
government municipalities.

Mr.. Cozzolino got the floor again
and declared that he did not believe
that the market could be made sani-
tary on the present site and that 1t
should be put somewhere else. Dele
gate Brennan took issue with him on
this, and offered resolution in which
1t was declared to be the sense of the
council that the city authorities
should build new and sanitary
structure where the market now
stands
Reporting for the committee ap-
pointed to investigate the grievances
of the Wagon Makers Union, Mr..
Cozzolino said that the members had
been unable to finish their work, and
asked that pending a final report
the wagon shops now in the
unfair list be taken off temporarily.
Such action, he said, would enable
the committee to obtain a result that
would be satisfactory to the union.
This was done despite the fact that
Delegate F. W. Wiechelmann. of the
Wagon Makers Union, protested that
nothing was to be gained by such
action.
Harry Dubinsky, appointed by the
New York union to organize the la
dies garment workers in this city,
was introduced and given the privi-
lege of the floor Asking for help in
his work, he said that a number of
manufacturers have removed from
New York city to Newark to escape
union conditions. "And," he added,
there are women working in facto-
ries here for less than so per cent. of
what is paid in New York for the
same w )rk."

man, roped off space on the floor.
When the band struck up again Grea-
son babe his charges "go to it,"
At first the playground children
were little backward about coming
forward Finally two or three couples
took the floor. Others took courage
and followed. Soon the floor was
filled with boys and girls dancing
the very latest steps in the most APP
proved fashion. Director Greason
warned the dancers to refrain from
any of the pastures, gyrations and
holds that often make the modern
dances Objectionable, and the children
obeyed his order to the letter
The first playground dance, in
formal though it was, was a huge
success. J. Leonard Mason, secretary
TO the Playground Commission, today
gave Director Greason permission to
substitute dances for concerts if he
found they would be enjoyed more by
the people of his neighborhood.
There is only one more concert
scheduled for this season on the

taken this morning to get the bands
there oftener The concrete floor of
the Prince street grounds makes
them the only ones in the city where
