Last spring, in the case of the Winalow vs. The Bchooner Osbarne, by appeal from the Distelet Court, it was held that the collislon be- Treen the vessels was the result of nealizence on the part of both, and that thero should be a dirislon of the damnges, ‘The caae was referred tos 8pecinl Master to ascertain and report the losses sustajned by both vessels, and divide the nme cqually. Both vessels, nt the time of the collisor, wereg under etutrter on n basis of golnig nifes of frelghts for the senson of 1871, whicn was, for fron ore between Esennaba and Erje, at alittlo over §2 per ton. During the senson of 1622 polugz rates advanced very rapidly, so that, at the time of the colliston, for the balance of tko seagon they were for fron-ore between the polnts named about $4. ‘I'he proctors for the Osborne clatmed 1hat the damage for forty-five days durlng which that vessel was detnined should bo computed on o basis of the earninos the schooner would lhave inade ‘“‘runaing sld? or the value of the use of tbe vessel for the tune, because the secel was lable to her charter for what it wonld cost them to suvply her place during the getention, while the proctors for the linellnnts dalmed that sil damnzre tlue shio conld nsk was wuch as could -make her whote, or resture her Lo wliere sho would have been befors the collision, The differenca In carntugs in favor of the vessol at "rolng rates 8 was some 83,000 The Mus- ter found dumarres on nbasis of the charter rates, and hetd that all she conld recover was whut she would have earned under her charter had the clllston not occurred, After dividing the dam- ages, he found the balance duo the Osborne to peover §4,000, Exceptions were taken to hls fudings.” Judwo Baxter euatalned the Moster, Thls precise polut has nut been herctofors wuarely decided by the Courts, and 1t fs there- foré of importance, The caso mocs, by nopeal, tothe Supreme Court of the United States.

A Statement of ments Before (ke United States Supremo Court From Qur Owen Carrespondent, WasiNaTON, D, Uy Mareh 14.—The easo of The Peoplu of the State of Iilinole, ox. rel, enry B, Miller, County Treusurer, vs. Tho Northwestern University, has heen argued In the Eupreme Court of- the United States. James K. Edsall, Attorney-General of Iinols, and Couslder 1, Willett, County-Attorey of Cook County, appeared In belalf of the Blate and County, sl Wirt Dexter nnd Benator Matt Carpenteron behalf of the University, The followng are the poluts In the caso: It appeara from the record hat this was an application to the County Court of Couk County, 1Hlinols, by the Trensurer and ex-ofliclo Collector of Toxes for thut county, for judi- went upon delluquent taxes nssessed upon s Inrge number of town-lots und other real estate owned by the platutiff in error. “The attorneys for the Northwestern Universi- ty offer i evideuce {ts charter, swnich provides for the orgonization of o corporation under the nomo and style of *Trustees of the Northwest- crn University,” with appropriaty vowers lor the establisbment of un fustitution of Jearning, and confers upon {t the right to ucquire and hold real wid personal property for the purpose of the {nstitution; but limits the quantity of Inud 1t may own at any onse tine to 2,000 acres. The original charter contained no provision purport- g to exempt any of the property of the corpos ration from taxation. T'he plaintifl in error also introduced o evi- dence an amendment to its charter, passed by the Ueneral Assembly of 1luols, and approved Fub, 14, 1865, the fourth scetion of which s as follows: *T'hiat all property of whatever kind or de- geription, belouging to or owned by sald cor- poration, shall e forever free from taxation for any und oll purposes.” ‘The cuse wos heard in court below, and the Btawe Supreme Court held thut the fourth sec- tlon of the noendment to the charter, passed Feb, 14, 1855, providing *wat all property of whatever kind or description, belonging to or owned by sald corporation, shall be Jorever free from taxation for any und all purposes,” was repugnant to the provislons of he State Con- stitutton of 1848, in force at that time, so far a3 the property was not dircetly used for eduen- tionnt, reifgions, or charitable purposes. At the conclusion of sn elaborate oplnlon, the Court say: “ Our conclusion s, that it was not compe- tent for the Geueral Assembly to exempt from taxution property owned by edueational, ve- Ielous, or charltable corporations, which was not ftzelf used directly In aid of the purposes for which the corporations were created, but which was held for profit merely, althongh the profits were to be devoted to the proper pur- posea ol thie corparation, ‘To the extont, there- fore, thut the fourth scetion of the amendinent to appelinnt’s charter, approved Feb, 14, 1855, as- unies to do go, it I8 to he considered vold and of no effeet, but no furdher.” On this state ol facts thocnse i8 brought to the Umted States Supreme Court. The Univer- sty clalms that the Supreme Court of Illinols erfed fn the followinz partienlars: M First—In adjudglog that no yalld contract existed between the State of Ilinols and the plalotifl I orror, by viriue of the chon granted to It by safd State, aml ita accoptane fhereol and uctlons thereunder, whereby the plaintifT In error was protected, ily the Consti- tutton of the United States, from”the taxation complained of in these proceedings. » Second~—In adjudiing that the provislon of the churter of plaintifl I error, exempting its property from taxation, was in confilet with the Canstitution of the Statc of Nlinols, unct vold. Third—Iu adiudging that tho lowds or lots owned by glaintlft in crror, nnd deseribed in these proceedings, were subject to taxntion for State, county, and other ptirposes, for the year 1874. under ihe Constitution and laws of the Stateof Ilinols, notwitlstanding thelr exemption by the charter of pluintifl In error, granted by sald State of 1llinols, and accepted by plaintift iu error,”? Attorney-Cleneral Lusall, beforo the Court, maintained the foltowlr propusitions: S he Revenue law of the Btate, passed in 1872, Iy & mere reviston of the Revenue law of .1853, and made no substuntial change n the law 80 fur ns respecty the question of the oxemption of properly from taxation.!? e Rtevenne Taw of 1672 does not assnms to smend or repcal any exemption contafued fn spectal charters of private corporations, Nor can it bo conetrued as havine that ellect without folating the carablished rules of construction, {he State has puseed no subsequent law repeating or impafring auy of thu provisions or obligations of the amendment o the churler under which the exemption from taxation {s cluimed, i vannot be reasonubly elnfmed that tho new Constitution of the State, adopted in 1870, Impmired the obligation of any pre-existing con- ract. “I'ifs Court will not entertain ‘nrlsdlcuon of a case from o 8tato Conrt merely becauge the Judzment of that Court Jnpairs ot falls to give effect to a contruct. “In order to confer jurlsdiction upon that ground, there must linvo been some low of the “Btate, subsequently enncted, which tinpaired the obligation of the contracts ond the valldity of sach law must hove been sitatuined fu the fituto Court agalust this conatitutionel objee- of “'Che Tederal qucestion, If any cxlsts, muat he disclosed by the 1ecord and proceedings as sent here froms the State Court, otherwise jurisdic. tlon will not. be entertatned. “The State. Courd correetly held that, under the Constitution of ‘1848, the General Assembly could not exempt from taxution the property of collees not neceseary for school purposes.’ “The oxpress mandate ol the Btate Constitu- tlon was, thut *The Genernl Assembly shall provide for Jevylig a tux by valuation, so that every pereon anitl corporation shall pay o tax in vra(muuu 10 the value of bis or her property,’ “rhe entire record shows that the judmment of the Binte Court wus predicated upon the ground that the scetion ol the amendment to the charter ,mrlmrllnu tu exempt the property 1n question trom taxation was fnvalld by reacon of 118 repugnance to the provistons of the State Canstitutton In force when this amendatory uct Wi passed.” My, George O, Ide, In his brief fu hehalf of the State of 1llinols, maintatued, among other things, that #The puwer to exempt from {axa- ton should be constried fuvorably io the State, and most strongly aguinst the corporation, lu cnse of doubt as o ihe meaging, the donbt ehiould bo solved in fuvor of the State.” 1le said: “The solution of the doubt, It there be any, must be, that ¢ wns the futent of the people of I1tuola, in framing and adoptims thelr Conatltution, to {mrmltllw excuption of such }:ro[n:ny only as {s uctually needed nud used in lie performance of the publle dutles of this Unlversity, and not to { erinll the exemption of such proporsy a8 I8 held by it for Inveatment and proflt. “Tle question of the tuxatlon of thess ex- tensive Juuds, leased und held for gale by this University, 13 of conslderuble importance Lo tii State, to the county, the townships, nnd com- mon-ichiool districts, in which tlis real catute Heg, ‘Their annual taxation would vroditee sn nppreciable reveuue, applicable to the hquida- tion of the publte indebtedncsa uid the proper support of the common schiuols, [ s important to the {nhabitants of - the Villawo of Evanstou, tho municipui corporation within whose cor- porate Hmits the Novthwestern University i located. 11 the judgment below be atlinned, 8 large proportion or the eutive area of rea! prop- erty Includetd withiu the corporate limits ot 1he village, as the Hst in this record discloscs, will cease to vscapo tuxation for State, county, town- ship, district-school, and local uunlcipal purs poacs.
