SUPREME COURT DISSENTED. The Inoomo Tax Law Is ReaMy Un coneibituUomlal. WaaWngiton, April 8. Clhilef Justice Fuller handed down iflhe decision in the Income tax case today. It finds it'hlalt tthe tax on remits or landed In vestment Is ddreot toJoaJUon, and un constitutional The court next decided 'the tax unconstitutional so far as it related to Incomes from atalte, county or mujtleipal bonds. It next ruled tha faot the law, (pronounced unconstitu tlonail In tlhose two particulars, did not InvBiliilaite the law as a whole. It is announced thiait in Hhis latter con clusion tlhe court was equally divided and therefore rendered no opinion, a lower count ihavlng ruled in favor of the law by a dUvided count, the law would stand except as to remits, and state, county, and municipal bonis, and on tlhese two points It was directed that -the Judgment -be now reversed. Justice Filed road foils dissenting opinion. He eald: "I am of tlhe opin ion that the Whole law of 1894 is null and void." He was followed by Justice White In a second dissenting opinion. Justice Held laid great stress upon the foot 'that Ithe tow does not exempt Judges of tlhe UnJtJd States counts from payment of tax." Justice White's dis sent was largely extemtporameous and very Jong. Apparently lie favored up holding tlhe whole law. Justice Har lan followed Justice White In a dis senting opinion, and the cose closed. Notihin-g was cold as to now any of the Judges stood save Ithe three Who read dlssein'ts. Justice Field, the oldest member of the court. In 'his dUssewtlng opinion, said: The income itax law under consider ation Is marked toy discriminating fea tures which will affect the whole law It discriminates between tho&e who reoelre an income of $4,000 and those Who do mot. It thus vitiates, lri my Judgment, by this arbitrary dlsttilmlna tlon, the whole legtlstaitian. Whenever distinction is made in the -burdens a law imposes or the 'benefits It confers on any citizen by any reason of their birth, wealth, or .religion, It - is class legislation and leads Inevita'bly to op pression and albuse and to general un rest and disturbance in society. It Is Sloped and ibelieved that the great amendment (to the constitution which followed the late civil war had ren dered such legislation Impossible for all future time. Out the objectionable legislMUOn reaippears In the aot Under cansidenaltion. It is the same in essen. tlal character as the English statute of 1081 which taxed the Protestants at a certain rate, Catholics as a doss at double the rate of Protestants, and Jews alt another and separate rate. Justice Fidld concludes: "If -the pro. visions of the constitution can be set aside by an act of oongress, where is the course of usurpation to end? The present assault upon capital Is but the beginning. It will be the steppitngsjtone to others larger and more sweeping, until our poHtioaJl contests will become a war of the 'poor apainst the rich, a war constantly growing in Intensity and biittornees. TREASURY OFFk-iALS BLUE. They Calculate that Half the Income Tax Revenue Is Gone. Washington, April 8. The treasury ofilolalB are greatly dispirited over the supreme court's decision on the Income tax case, and while admitting thidit they Wave no rellaMe data upon which to farm an accurate estimate, they ex press the belief that the net result of the dedi&on will be a loss of at loiurt 50 per cent of the receipt from the In comes. In mwrt cities the loss 111 be far greater than this, noitaMy the city of Washlnjston, where the toes Is ex pected to reach 75 per cent. Wash ington, however, is exceptionally a renting city. The prmpostion of the rented houses In other cities of the country Is also very large. In 1890 the rented houses in New York City were nearly 94 per cent of the whole. MARINE INTELLIGENCE.

Ham mond, one of the ipurclmsera of the Orogon Pacific Railroad, arrived In tlhe city today, and will make a tour of ln joeotlon of the entire road. He sold Mr. Bonner had withdrawn from the Astoria enterprise, but is etUl equally lateredted with him In ithe Oregon Pa cific. The company will be reorgan ized as soon, he said, as Ithe papers for the Incorporation of the new com pany, now being prepared, are ready. It will be known as the Oregon Central and Eastern Railway. Mr. Hammond Is naturally pleased thloit the new sur vey has been ordered at Yaquilnia, and oonfldence that tlhls harbor will receive a Just reooginiition and appre ciation for furtiher improvement. As 'to the new company's plans, Mr. Hammond said: "Our actions are han dicapped by the mjipeol pending In the supreme court, but If that is decided saUsfaatorlly, we will flrs-t put the road In flrat class condition, then will come the question of extemUone. If we find tlhe business will Justify we will build brantftics to both Eugene and Sa lem. As to the easiturn extension, we will build thiait also as fast as business will Justify and exipeat eventually to connect with one of the through east ern lines. I was told In Portland that the eastern end of the road did not amount to much, Wit instead of this being the case, I -oam .truthfully say that no railroad of the same, length In the United States or elsewhere offers so much tonmagie in sight as does that part of the Oregon Pacific 'between Al bony and Its present terminus. . There Is In the tinVber radium up the Samtiam nine or tor. billion ferit of timber. There Is a great -lumlber industry to be de veloped there, and ft is a part 0f 0ur plan to undertake 'this, which will re quire better iwharflaige in San Francis co and the ohiairterlng of a line of steam schooners from Yaquilrta. We have abundant capital to carry but our plans, but cannot go on wi'tli them except In a limited way until the ap peal case Is sat-Uloil. We expect' to build some each year until we finally carry out our plan for eastern connec tion. I 'have had reports from East ern Oregon, and realize that great traf fic across the moun'talns awaHts the ad vent of the railroad." 1I'1LA WARE'S GOVERNOR DEAD. Dover, Del., April 8.
