THE LAW. Uonclusion of the Protracted ! Tax Arguments. [he Question Taken Undor Advise ment by the Judges, §ow Bills Filod by Disgusted Tax- : . Payors, o Receiver to Bo Appointed for the Mlinois : - River Road. A Well-Known Bestaurant-Keeper Files His Voluntary Petition, Rocord of Judgments and New Suits, THE TAX CASES. GOXCLUSION OF TNF. ARGUMENTS, A further argumont was had yesterday aftor- noon bofore Judges Williame, Farwell, and Moors en some polnts raised in the argument of the tax cases. Bince tho billa wore filed and tho argments commenced, Bifl 800 has been docided by tho Bnprems Court (o bo constitutional, and tho city bold to be under townsbip law, This materially ehonges tho status of tho cases, and the .Judges intimated Wednea- day & desira to hoar some further arguments, a8 to whothor tho clty had eleotod, prior to Aug. 9, 1876, to procead for tho collection of the city taxes under Bill 800, vo that at that date they could not eloct to procesd under the Genaral Revenue law. Also, whothior the limitation of 3 por coot by Bill 300 remained in foreo after the . election to procesd wader tho Gonoral Rovanuo Isw, aodif 8o, to what valuation the Iimitation applied. Yesterday afternoon was set sa tho time to hear tho arguments, At the opening of tho Court in the afternoon somo little discunsion took placeas to whoshould have tho opening, and Low the timo should Le divided, but it was finally settlod tuat tho city slould opon, and MR. ADAMS made the first argumant. Ho contended that such acts as tha city bnd approved in respect to the taxes of 1870, prior to Aug. 9, 1876, namely : passing tho appropriation aordinance, providing for the oxponsoes of tho offico of City Collector ond Assossor, and proceeding to make an asscss- ment, did not estop the city from subseauently clecting to proceed under Uil 300. Bea. 22 of Bl 800 provided that the eity might at any time elcct to coliect a tax uoder tho Genoral Revenue Jaw. Ho argnod further that =il persons wore bound to take notico that notwithatanding tho city mssessment waa being made, the Iaw was that the city might st any time, prior lo the socond Tuocsday of August, elect to ceitify the amount of the taxes necessary ta be ralsed to the County Callector, aod oollect under tho Geusral Rovenuo'law. Ar, Adams foithor argued that Lhore was no conatitutional limitation on the power of the {gc;:l?lnum to grant such right of eloction to e city. + Inregard to the question of the limitation to 8 por cont, it was arguod that though it wan a limitation on the powers canferred by Bill 300, nnd that as the sppropriation ordinance was not passed under Bill 300, nor taxos leviad under Bill 100, but under the goneral act of incorporation for cities and villages adopted by tho city May 3, 1875, théroforo the powora granted by Bill 300 ‘were not exercised, and the limitation on the oxerciso of thase powers did not apply. ME, FULLER followod, directing his aitontion particularly to . tho fact that the city had wado its appropriation uoder Bill 800, and exercised powers which wero oply conferred by that act. If, then, it adopted in Angust following tho Cenoral Iaw, its appropriation was gone, and as the Aufimprimnn ordinanca could only be mado within (ho firss quarter of tho fiscal year, it would thon bo toa late to make an appropriation, and no taxcs conld be levied for the year. He also claimed that Bill 800 repealed Art. VIIL of the ity chartor, and was & snb. stitute for it. That Art. VI raquired tho appropristion to be made within the first threo months of the year, snd the bills alleged that that ordloaace was paxeed by virtue of powers grented by DBill 300. That belng so, the city could npot swing awsy from Dill B0O “after it vpassod its Appropriation ordlnange under it, withiout losing ils Appropria- tion ordinance, which would vitiate tho taxes altogether. The Jimitation of 8 per cent applica 1o the aggregate assopsed valuation must mosn the valuation of the Town Asaesaors,—ilrst, bo- esuse Equalization Boards never pretended to fix yaluee, with tho exception of capital stock and nuatters of that sort, mtrustod to the Blate Board ; macondly, it waa lmpossible in the Com- mon Council, on’ the Oth of August, to know whother they were excoading ths 8 per coat or not, bocauss the Eiate Board did amot act until nfter that, AR, BORDEN follosred Alr. Fuller, e said that tho city was limited in raising taxea for corporate ourposes. There was but one charter, sud tuat was under tho Goneral Incorporation law, only madifisd by wuch subseguant laws a» were in conformity with it. It Lill 300, which was by its title a gou- ural aet, was fn forca st preasnt in tho city, it waa grossly at vaiianco with the general city oharter. The conduct of tho city was so varable and uncertain that it was diplcult to toll what it intorded to do, The remainderof hte argument wae mainly what had beeu advanced before, and in ame liue with that of Mr, Fuller, Mr. Wilson, on behalf of tha city, closed the srgumont, but he merely amplified tho polnts alroady presonted. A abort conforonce was then had among tho Judges, whon Judgo Morria said if thece wero x‘y more points to Le counidered they could be ved to-day, Mr, Rountres aald {! plea in any of the othor casos. -Bome further conversation followed, and it ‘was finally sgreed that all othior casos bat thoso heretofora argucd sbould be postponed wutil uext Wednosday, Tho Judges sald thoy did not know when thay would render a dectslon, but it would bo aa avon au possiblo, and they would not + majt to hear the rowsining cased. They then ad- journod to Judge Williame' private room, to dis- cuss the new idess—if any—iboy Lad gained from the aftornoon's argument, JOERIL M.

He said that Lio thought that the appointmont of a Itae celver at tho prescnt timo would only add to tho Company’s vcomplicatiops, aud be spt to canse groat injustice, The rule of the Court hiad al- ways been nat toappoiut a Receiver excopt whon tho partics holding the property in controversy wora Irreaponsiblo, or whero tho partiva would be prejudiced, or the [)ropmly be subjected to 8 loss, In the prosent instauce, however, the property of tho Campany consisted entiraly of res| esiato, boing tha rosd-bed of tho railrond and somo cosl lands, which wero in the possoa. sfon of the Ohicago & Alton Railroad Cowmpany. That Company was ootirely responsible, and could be compolled to respond in dsmages or pay, any judgment that wight ba iecovored against them, Somo af the contracts woro no doubt apen to criticism, for parties froquently made contracts when cowpolled to do so, which they would not make if they woro at perfect liberty, But, though the complsinant might have good cause for cumplsining of soma of the Company's ar- rangemonts, thesppolutmant of a Rocoiver wonla not be tha propor rvomedy for such lls, ‘I'he Judgo mald ho would not, therefare, appoint a Re- coiver, but would refuse tha motlon, loaving tho pxoperk{ with she Chicago & Alton load to hold uuder its lease.
