ONLY QUESTIONS LEFT UNDECID ED IN FIRST HEARING "WILL BE COVERED. JUSTICE HARLAN WILL PREPARE Majority Opinion Sustaining the Law— Senator Voorhees Makes an Estimate. WASHINGTON, May 13. — It is learned definitely that a conclusion was reached at Saturday's consultation of the supreme court, and that it is confidently expected to have the opin ion in the case ready for announce ment next Monday. No authoritative statement as to which way the de cision will be can be secured, of course, but all that can be learned corrob orates the Associated Press report of Saturday that the indications favored the upholding of the law on the points that remain. A member of the court is responsible for the statement that there will probably be . two opin ions, and, while he did not go to the extent of indicating on which side the majority of opinion would be, he said ' that a member of the majority would write the opinion of the court, while some member of the minority would express. an opinion on the other side, and there would probably be no inde pendent individual opinions as before. The present intention is to make the opinions comparatively brief. They will cover . only the questions left un decided in the first decision, as to whether the void provisions cover the whole act, whether the act as it ' : * : : V? AFFECTS INCOMES from ' personal property as such is unconstitutional because It provides for direct taxation of them and whether the tax Is invalid on account of want of uniformity. The under standing now is that Justice Harlan will prepare the majority opinion sus taining the law. The court, at the same time, will render .opinions in a large number ol other cases which have been argued. Adjournment for. the summer will, not be reached, however, until the follow ing Monday, the 27th Inst.' "Senator Voorhees expressed the opin ion today that the law as it stands without taxing rents and public bonds, would,' when It is in complete opera tion, bring in a- revenue of- $20,000,000. The income tax reports already re ceived at the treasury department are being classified and recorded. Al though the officials are exceedingly ret icent on the subject, it is believed the rent exemptions will amount to 50 per cent of the whole. The whole num ber of returns made under the law are, approximately, 150,000, and the estimate is made that these represent not more than 75 per cent of the number of persons legally liable un der the law. If the recent decision of the court is sustained next Monday, as is now regarded as probable, the de linquents will certainly be proceeded against as rapidly as possible, and it is thought that the 50 per cent penalty Imposed by the law will not be remitted in any case. It is asserted that the persons who have failed to make re turns have done so with a clear under standing of the law, and in, many cases have refused to comply with it on legal advice, preferring to take thsir chances of. being compelled to pay the penally. ;'"'-?*?

NEW YORK, May 13. — Reports from i many sections of the state indi cate that last night's' frost did an immense . amount of damage to grow ing vegetables, crops and fruit. Tele grams from Dunkirk state that the entire grape crop of the Chautauqua grape bel t was ruined. The loss is estimated at $1,500,000 ?in this belt. That figure was the value of last year's crop, and by reason of new acreage coming Into bearing the crop this year would have been much larger. The Chautauqua grape belt extends through Erie, county west ward to Erie. It occupies a strip from five to eight miles in width along the southern shores of Lake Erie. ■Three ; thousand six hundred cars .were loaded from the belt last sea son. The total number of baskets reached 10,800,000. To , this number 3,000,000 might safely be added for increased acreage this year. At Dun kirk the ; thermometer fell to (25 . de grees. Every vine is destroyed. ;. Sil i ver ' Creek " last year shipped - 2,200 cars. This place -is remarkably well sheltered. 7 Everything is destroyed. At Forestville every farmer has plant ed every available acre In , grapes, and the; frost last night ruined every vine. Other ,' fruits suffered nearly as much. !At Westfleld the vines are en tirely cut down. Some growers will , plow up their vineyards and ? return to the old style of general ; farming. Brockton, generally known as the cen ter of the Chautauqua grape belt, is in r mourning ? today. Nothing jis raised there - but grapes, and the frost last night cut them all down. Gerry Rick mann, the millionaire grower and wine manufacturer, says . the ? loss in the belt by reason of the destruction done to 'the I grapes will reach at least ; $2, --000,000. His own loss he estimates at $250,000. •vy . ••-;• , : At Fredonia nothing of * the : grape crop .can be saved.

In , Niagara . county, where small fruits are freely raised, , there lis a: disposition to take a gloomy view of the ' ravages of the frost, but .conservative judges think . the damage not general .or' severe. Next to grapes, strawberries perhaps have been more seriously hurt. - : : ' In Allegheny county the lowest ' tempera ture is recorded,- 25 degrees, "and it : is likely that all kinds of fruits have been damaged. % A FROSTY. BLESSING. "Weather Clerk Lyons So Considers the Cold Spell in Minnesota. Forecast . Official ,' Lyons admitted ■yesterday that there had been a severe frost in : the morning, but he believes that It will prove rather a benefit than an Injury to the state. y "There is very little fruit 'grown in this state," he explained, "that would be apt to ;be hurt by such a frost,, while almost all grain crops, especial ly wheat, was given too much of a start by the very hot weather we had a short time ago. It was growing too rank, and r the ; frost will do : it : good. The cold seemed to be most intense this morning toward the south. Up at ' Medicine Hat, in the far Northwest, it was as warm as at any other point. That : indicates that the cold spell is broken, and that we shall have our ; normal weather back again in a day or two." 7 . :.-* NOT SO BAD IN MINNESOTA.

SfIOOTSJISEIiATOH MISTRESS OF PETER R. MORRIS. SEY TERMINATES HIS CA REER. MEETS DEATH WHILE ASLEEP, MAID LEWIS, THE PERPETRA TOR, IN A FRENZY OF FEAR. \ \ EFFECT IN MISSOURI SENATE, Morrlssey's Vacancy -Will Have an; "■■• Important Bearing Upon the Status of Democrats. ' ' ' '- v"'-"* : ' ST. LOUIS, Mo., May 13— State Senator Peter R. Morrissey was shot and instantly killed at 3:30 this morning by Maud Lewis, his mistress. The tragedy was enacted in her room at 2719 Wash street." Morrissey went to the house at a very late hour and had retired when the crime was committed. The woman had been mentally unbalanced for some time, according to the statements of her neighbors. She is supposed to have been insane at the time. The first in formation the neighbors had of the tragedy was from the woman's screams. They ran in and found her in a frenzy of grief and terror, bowing over the body and calling on "Pete" to "come back." The first witness on the scene could gain no information from her as to the exact manner in which the murder was committed, but everything Indicated that Morris sey . was asleep when he met his death. . The weapon used was an American bulldog? revolver of 33 caliber. Two . shots were fired, one entering the mouth and the other penetrating the brain through the. left eye. Death was instantaneous. As soon as the neighbors ascertained that Maud Lewis was the principal in the tragedy they sent word to **»« Four Courts and Detectives. Smith and Howard were dispatched to tl. ! place. They were unable to get a coherent statement 'from the woman, whose ravings . became more violent every minute. . They had her sent to the city hospital, . and permitted an un dertaker to take charge of the body. - THE DECEASED 7 - : v was born in St. Louis Aug. 14, 1539. and was educated at the St. Louis univer sity. In 1885 'he was elected to the municipal assembly, and at the time of his death he was a member of the Mis souri state senate. -His business, was that of saloon and lodging house keep er. tf Morrissey lived .with his father, mother - arid sister -in* rooms T over his saloon, southeast corner of Eleventh street and (Clark avenue. lie was $ single man, about thlrty^ive year* age. At the city hospital, , soon after Maud Lewis was .received .there,, it was 'stated that she ; was violently crazy, : though whether her. condition was due: to remorse for her act, or antedated the crime could not then be ascertained. The Lewis woman is twenty-five , years old, , and was born and reared in St. Louis. She Is said to have come of a good family. She was in the city hospital from Aug. 28 to Sept. 10 of last year, suffering from hysteria. . ->•;-' Morrissey was notorious as a crooked worker at the polls. Ten years ago ho was Indicted for ballot box stuffing,' but the influence of the leaders of the party kept him out of the penitentiary. Two other girls, - Lillian Moss and Emma Lewis, inmates of the house, and the colored porter were arrested. The women in the house said that Im mediately on Morrissey's arrival, he and the Lewis woman had quarreled, but they had not considered their dif ferences as serious. Morrissey had started the altercation by telling Maud Lewis that "he had another woman on Twenty-first street." She had.an swered that she knew, it, and that she supposed Morrissey would marry, that woman, adding, according to the state ments of Night Chief of Police Reedy's Informants, "I don't care If you do marry her; and you can bring her here and -I will give you my room, but I tell you this— there will be a DEAD IRISHMAN around here." The woman, Maud Lewis, was later taken from the city hospital and placed In a cell at tho Four Courts. She professes Innocence. Morrisey had intended leaving thi3 morning for Cincinnati, in 'response to a message received from his sister, stating that her husband was dying, and asking ,that some member of her family come to her at once. JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., May 13.— The killing of Senator Peter R. t Mor rissey- created a profound sensation among the senators who are here. The question at once arose, What effect will it have on the senate? It leaves the Democrats with only eighteen senators, just enough to pass a bill if all of them are In their seats., Ten days! notice of special election must be given, so that it seems im possible that his successor could bo elected in time to take his seat this session. Before leaving for St. Louis last Friday Senator Morrissey left in structions with Senator Raskctt, chair man of the * committee on labor, to send him word whenever he was nettl ed, and he would return Immediately. Jim' Nutt Is Cracked. ** ATCHISON, Kan., May 13.— 1n the Jim^Nutt trial today the defense in troduced a dozen witnesses whose tes timony all tended to show the prisoner was habitually melancholy an*%that ha bordered on Insanity. Editor Smith, publisher of a weekly paper, testified that Nutt had requested him, a few days before the Atchison county; shooting, to make no further mention of the Pennsylvania tragedy, and said that he acted very peculiar. : The ar guments? will doubtless begin tomo*> row.
