THE END OF THE BLACK HOLE
Results of the Expose Made
by the Herald
THE KEY TO THE SITUATION
Is Now in the Hands of the Po=
lice Commissioners
THE CITY COUNCIL HAS ACTED
Authorized to Immediately Provide New
Quarters
A Large Delegation of Earnest Women
Present
Prompt Action In the Chamber Based Upon
Feelings of Indignation W hat Will the
Commissioners Do?
The council yesterday came to the
assistance of the peoplo of tho city, and
the matter of decent jail accommodations
for female violators of tho ordinances
bids fair to be solved, thanks to The Her-
MISS G. T. STICKNEY of the Salvation Army Making H;r Appsal to the Council to
Remedy the Disgraceful Fema'e Wa d in the City Jail
aid. at an early day. The key to the sit
uation now reposes in fie keeping of the
board of police commissioners, which
body has full power to forever wipe out
the present blot in this particular on the
lair fame of the city.
A large delegation of women interested
in the matter were on hand when Presi
dent Teed called tho council to order yes
terday morning. The publications of Tiie
Herald had aroused an interest which
compelled action, and that at once. The
ladies present wero invited during a lull in
the regular proceedings of the council to
detail the horrible grievance to which,
technically at l*wrt, membeis of their sex
havo been subjected by the var
ous municipal administrations of the past
seven or eight years.
Miss G. T. Stickney of the Salva
tion Army was the first speaker,
and her powerful portrayal of thi
present condition of the female ward
iv the central station created a feeling of
horror to all who listened to the story.
Mrs. M. S. Dimmick followed, and then
Councilman Munson,unabio to any longer
restrain himself, moved that the police
Commissioners be authorized to immedi
ately provide for new quarters for the
female prisoners domiciled at the city
jail. Councilman I'essell seconded the
motion, and then Councilman Snyder
and Kingery each made an address ap
proving of action being at once
taken. "I'nlo.ss thero is objection," re■
marked President Teed, "Mr. Munson's
motion will bo declared to have been
unanimously adopted.''
Then the ladies tiled out and the coun
cil resumed its regular weekly labors.
The ladies yesterday present were Mrs.
M. ]•:. Teals, Mrs. M. 8, IMmmick, Mrs.
M. Wolfskill, Miss H. K. M. Pattee, Miss
0. T. Stickney, Mrs. M. J. Sax ton and
Mrs. Mary M. Bowon.
The ladies, on their way out of the city
ball, expressed great gratitude to Tho
Herald and unbounded admiration for
its work in bringing about the result
above, remarking that but for the labors
of the Herald, tho present fearful condi
tion of things might have lasted indefi

A SINGULAR SUIT
Action Against the Aged Catholic Archbishop
in St. Louis
ST. LOU IS, May 20.—Prominent Catbo
-I'C clergy and laymen figuree in a suit
filed Saturday in the district court against
the venerable Archibishop l'efer Richard
Kenrick hy priests of his dioceso and lay
men to divest him of nil title and control
in the valuable church property of the
archdiocese of St. Loulf, held by him in
fee. The petition avers that the de
fendant is XII years of age and so weak in
mind as to be unable to perform tho
duties of his oflice. On this account the
property held by him, consisting of
lands, churches, convents, cemeteries and
asylums, is liable to be lost or impaired.
The prayer for the appointment of an
other trustee is only a request, hut the

law transfers the diocesan property to
Coadjutor Archbishop Kain. Several
months ago a newspaper controversy
arose over the reported loss of Archbishop
Kenrick's will. Archbishop Kain gave
out at the time that the teßtament was in
the hands of Archbishop Hennessy of
Dubuque, lowa. Since then, however,
another and later will has been found.
The plaintiffs, who, by the way, act as
beneficiaries of the trust,say this last will
is confused and almost impossible of in
terpretation; that the devisements would
come to naught in case Archbishop Ken
rick died and this instrument was tiled
for probato. .
Another cause for fear growing out of
the improperly drawn will is the possi
ble action of heirs of Archbishop Ken
drick. This danger is anticipated from
Ireland, where tne aged premte is sup
posed to have relatives Were he to die
and not lcate a valid will these heirs
would havo a prima facie cause for action
lor the possession of millions, which he
holds in fee simple.
The anxiety of Archbishop Kain and his
advisers to avert publicity and a lawsuit
brought Archbishop Ryan of Philadelphia
to this city a few weeks ago. Archbishop
llyan went home unsuccessful, and the
lawyers set to work. Yesterday's suit was
the last resort of Archbishop Kain to get
full control of the diocese which Home
intends him to rule.

far superior to anything displayed dur

certain objectionable features which then
tended to localize our movements and
prevent rapidity of operations. The out

FLAYED AND BURNED ALIVE
Terrible Punishment Meted Out to
Three Negroes
Little Doubt That the Assailants of niss
Armstrong In Florida Met Sum
mary Punishment
MADIBON, PI« M May 20. There is no
j longer any doubt that Sam Ucholis, Sim
' Crawley ano John Brooks, the negroes
! who outraged and murdered Miss Mamie
Armstrong in Lafayette county, were I
flayed and burned.
A man who has just reached tin's place
from Lafayette county fays the belief
is general that the negroes were tortured
to death. One man, who ventured into
the camp where the negroes wore carried
i asserts that he found the place where the
' negroes were put to death. Ho says that j
it was evident that the negroes were tied
to trees and the skin stripped from them
with knives.
Then wood was heaped about the bleed
lug forms, the match applied, and tho ,
I wretches were soon dead. This man says |
Iho found some strips of skin about the
1 placo, which 1 cars out tho belief that
j they were flayed and burned.
Everything is ijuict in Lafayette coun
ty, and there is no fear of trouble be
tween the races. The better class of ne
i grons denounce the outrage and murder
of Miss Armstrong as bitterly as the
j whites. Twelve negroes havo now been j
' lynched in six months,and it would seem j
[ that tho horrible fate of the last three j
should prevent further attacks upon white :
i women. The whices have formed a band,
I and are determined t) protect theJl wives j

THE WILDE CASE
It Is Probable the Cause Celcbrc Will Go
Over Till Next Term
LONDON, May 20.—The Old Bailey
court was crowded lodny when Justice
Wills, accompanied by the lord mayor ot
Londi n, Hight Hon. Sir Joseph Etonals
and r-ev*eral aldermen, took their seats
Upon the bench preparatory to tho second
trial of Oscar Wilde, charged with serious
misdemeanors. Wilde had previously
been driven to Old Bailey by Lord Doug
lass of Hawick, and Key. Stewart Head
lam, his two oondsmen. He looked hag
gard but had apparently improved in
health si nee his release on bail, and
walked smilingly into the prisoner's
dock, where ho took his stand beside Al
fred '1 aylor,charged with similar offenses.
Sir Edward Clarke, counsel for Wilde,
made an elaborate argument In favor of
having Wilde tried separately. The judge
agreed and decided to try Taylor tirst. [
Sir Edward Clarke then dwelt at length
on the great injustice done his client by I
having to wait while Alfred Taylor was |
tried. But in spite ot the argument of i
his counsel Wilde looked only too pleased j
as he stepped from the dock for his bail
to be renewed, and ho was again released
from custody. It probable the Wilde
case will go over until next session of the |
central criminal court and there is cvi- I
dently but a slight chance nf his convic
tion. Indignant comment is hoard on
ail sides at the turn events havo taken.

AND WE DON'T PAY THE TAX
Men With Big Incomes Need
Not Tell About It
GREAT QUESTION SETTLED
An Elaborate Opinion Rendered by
Justice Fuller
The Law Passed by the Last Congress
Knocked Into a Cocked Hat and
Income Tax Is Dead
Associated Press Special Wire.
WASHINGTON, May 20. -The income
tax law, which has receive 1 so large a
share of the pubic attention since the be
ginning of the regular session of the Fif
ty-third congress, is a thing of the past.
After being twico heard in the United
States supreme court, it was finally de
cided today by the court to be invalid
and unconstitutional. Thero were four
dissenting opinions delivered in these
cases today, one each by Justices Harlan,
Brown, Jackson and White, showing that
the court had stood tivo to four against
the law. Inasmuch as one of these dis
senting opinions was handed down by
Justico Jackson, and as ho was absent at
the iirst hearing, when the court divided
evenly on the question of sustaining the
law on all points except those as to the
tax on incomes from rents and bonds, it
tollows that ono of the members of the
court who at lirst. pronounced for the law,
except on those two points, changed his
attitude alter the second argument.
There is very little question that Jus
tice Shiras is the justice who changed
his views on theso points. He made no
announcements, either today or when the
first opinion was delivered, as to his
opinion. While the opinion of the chief
justice was largely a review of tho gen
eral aspects of the quostion involved, lie
based the opinion of the court today on
the argument that the provisions of the
law regarding the tax on rents and bonds
weie so essentially a factor of it as to
render all other parts of it dependent on
them, and in accordance with the well
known rule of law bearing on this ques
tion, the law as a whole must be declared
invalid,
The opinion of Justices Harlan and
White were couched in language so vig
orous and were so emphatic in their ar
raignment of the majority as to cause
very general comment. Both justices in
dicated their belief that the ruling opin
ion was voluntary and intimated that
| serious consequences might ensue. Jus
j tire Harlan suggested the necessity for
j amending the constitution In the view of
i the opinion.
The court room was packed during the
I entire three houis, when the opinions
( were being deliveied. The unexpected
event of today was in the appearance of
Justice Jackson. Ho had announced
after casting his vote last Saturday week
that ho would' return on tho following
Monday to Tennessee, but it appears
that instead ho went to Philadelphia to
j consult a specialist on internal diseases,
jHe left the bench immediately after de
j livering his opinion today, and it is un
j clerstood will.tiow proceed south. He de-
I livered his opinion from notes.
It should probably be stated that whilo
the cases in these opinions were delivered
i are uniformly characterized as the in
| come tax cases, they are known on the
court dockets as the cases of Charles Pol
lock vs. the Farmers' Loan and Trust
; company and Louis H, Hyde vs, the Con
■ tinental Trust company of New York,
| both appealed from the circuit court of
; the United States for the southern dis-
I trict of Xew York.
Justice Puller's Decision
WASHINGTON, May 20.—Immediately
on convening of the supreme court Chief
Justice Fuller today read the income
tax opinion. The fact tiiat he read it was
generally accepted as conclusive that the
law would he knocked out in toto, which
proved to be the case.
The conclusions of the court were:
First - We adhere to the opinion already
announced, that taxes on real estate be
ing indisputably direct taxes, taxes on
rents or incomes from real estate are
equally direct taxes.
Second—Wo are of opinion that taxes
on personal property or on income from
personal property arc likewise direct
taxes.
Third—The tax imposed by sections 27
to .')7, inclusive, of the act of 1894, so far
as it falls on tho income of real estate
and on personal property, being a direct
lax within the meaning of the constitu
tion and therefore unconstitutional and
void, because not apportioned according
to representation, all these sections, con
stituting tho entire scheme of taxation,
arc necessarily invalid. Tho decrees here
inbefore entered in this court will bo va
cated. Tho decrees below will bo reversed
and the cases remanded, with ijtatructions
to grant tlie relief prayed for.
Sections 27 to 117 of the tariff act of
1894, referred to in the conclusions of the
court in its opinion, are sections of the act
relating to the income tax, and the entire
income tax law is hereby declared void
speci tically.
At the outset of his opinion Chief Jus
tice Fuller said: "Whenever this court is
required to pass upon the validity of an
act of congress, as tested by fundamental
law enacted by the people, the duty im
posed demands in its dischargo the m
niost deliberation and cure, and invokes
the exercise of great governmental power
and brings into consideration as vitally
affected by the decision that complex sys
tem of government so sagaciously framed
to secure and perpetuate the indestructi
ble union composed of indestructible
states. Wo have therefore an anxious de
sire to omit nothing which might in any
degree tend to elucidate the questions
submitted, and aided by further able ar
guments embodying tho fruits of elabor
ate research, carefully re-examined these
cases with tho result that, while our for
mer OonolUSionß remain unchanged, their
scope must be enlarged by acceptance of
their logical consequences. Our previous
decision was confined to the considcra-,

tion of the validity of the tax on income
from real estate and on income from mu
nicipal bonds. The question thus limited
was whether such taxation was direct or
not, in the meaning of the constitution,
and the court went no further as to the
tax on income from real estate than to
hold it fell within the same class as
the source whence the income was de
rived ; that is, that the tax upon realty
and tax upon receipts therefrom were
alike direct. . While as to the income
from municipal bonds, that could not
be taxed, because of wont of power to tax
the source, and no reference was made to
the nature of taxes being direct or indi
rect.
"We are now permitted to broaden the
field of inquiry and determine to which
of the great classes tho tax upon a per
son's entire income, whether derived
from rents or produens or otherwise, of
real estate, or from bonds, stocks or other
forms of personal property, belongs, and
we are unable to conclude that enforced
subtraction from the yield of all owners'
real or personal property in the mannei
prescribed, is so different from a tax
upon property itself, that it is not a di
rect, but an indirect tax in the meaning
of the constitution. The words of the
constitution are to be tt.Ken in their obvi
ous sense, and have a. reasonable con
struction. Wo know mo reason for hold
ing otherwise than that excise words 'di
rect taxes' on ono hand und 'duties, im
posts and excises' un the other were
used in the constitution in their natural
and obvious senses. Xor in arriving at
what those terms embrace do we perceive
any ground for enlarging them beyond
or narrowing them wVtbin the natural
and obvious import at. the time the con
stitution was framed and ratified.
"And passing from the text, wo regard
the conclusion reached!, as inevitable when
the circumstances which surroundod the
convention and controlled its action und
the views of those who framed and
adopted tho constitution are considered."
The chief justice discussed the reasons
for constitutional provisions regarding
direct taxation. Tfce states had plenary
power of taxation, ho said, but gave up
great sources of Revenue derived from
commerce and retained tho power of
levying taxes and duties covering any-
I thing other than efxeiscs, but in respect
to them the rang« 3of taxation was nar
rowed by the powijr granted the federal
government over interstate commerce.
While they granted power apportioning
direct taxation, then,- securod to the states
opportunity to pay tho amount appor
tioned, and recoup from its own citizens
in the most feasible way.
The opinion continued: "It is said
that on the whole the income of property
is not a direct tax, but a duty. Wo do
not think so. Direct taxation was not re
stricted in a breath, and the restriction
blown to the winds in another."
Tho opinion dismissed the Hylton case
with this comment: "What was decided
in the Hylton case was that a tas on car
riages was excttse, and therefore an indi
rect tax," The opinion next took up the
argument that tax upon property is not
a direct tax within the meaning oi the
! constitution, and said: "We find it im
| possible to hold that the fundamental re
quisition, deemed so important, has been
Jorced by two provisions, ono affirmative
and one negative; can be defined away by
forced distinctions between that wnich
gives value to property itself. Stress of
argument is thrown, however, on the as
sertion that the income tax is not prop
erly a tax at all: that it is an assessment
