LITTLE ROCK, Feb. 13.—The law taxing Pullman cars, telegraph and oxpress com- panies operating in the state, passed by the last general assembly of Arkansas, has been declared unconstitutional by Judge Williams in the United States circuit court. Several months ago the Western Union Telegraph company and the Pucific Express company filed bills ir. court asking for an in- junction restraining the collectors of the various counties of the state from collecting taxes assessed under the act. A temporary restraining order was granted. The case was argued a short time since, the attorney general demurring to the bill. The court today overruled the demurrer, made the injunction perpetual and declared it unconstitutional on the ground that the act provided for assessments of proverty not situated in the jurisdiction of the state; that it embraces interstate commerce in violation of the United States law; that the acts do not give the plamtiffs the equal pro- tection of the state; that theass was made without regard o an ex taxable values, Attorney. General Clark said this morning that the "decision was a great surprise to him, in view of the fact that the Arkansas statute was drawn up after the stylo of similar laws in Massachusetts and Peunn- l ylvania, which had been declared by the United States supreme court in its de- cision to be constitutional. The case will be taken to the supreme court. \ Kennell Club ets Officers. The Omaha Kennel club held its annual meeting last evening at the oflices of D, J. C.

The protest of the forty property owners filed with the Board of County Commission- ers Monday against the paving of the thre country roads trom the city limits will go for naught. In speaking of the matter, the commis- sioners say that the parties protesting were all good citizens and most of them heavy tax payers, but the trouble was, the protest was too late. The people of the county had, by their ballots, decided that the roads should be paved, and nothing was left for the com- missioners to do but to cavry out the instruc- tions of more than two-thirds of the voters of Douglas count The purchasers of the paving bonds, Ru- dolph Kleyboite & Co.. have written the commissioners they have examir of tho facts and circumstauces conne with the voting of the bonds and that they have found all of the proceedings reguluy They also state that thoy ar dy to tuke the bonds aud pay for the same as soon as they are issued and registerea.

The ground between Belle- vue and Plattsmouth has been searched closely, but the makers of the queer coin, if they have a plant in that locality, have succeeded in evading the officers. The last report of the operations of the bogus money men comes from Plattsmouth. Officers there report that during the past ten days a well dressed stranger has been in that city spending his money very freel but that when the people whom he has fa- vored with his patronage try to pass the coins they received from him they find them thrown out and declared counterfeit. The Hotel Ripley, the B. & M. ticket agent and several business men of the city have souve- nirs of the stranger's visit that they will dispose of at a bargein to the government officials. The stranger left the city before the nature of his coin became generally known. He claimed to live in Omaha, and bought a ticket for this city when he left Plattsmouth. an ——a— HAS ESCAPED ALREADY, Defanlting Treasuror of Tipton County, In. diana, Gets Out of Kokomo Jail.

CHICAGO, Feb. 13.—Dr. Robert Wickham, charged with murdering Drugglst William Clapper, was discharged today, the prosecu- tion nolle prossing the case in one court while arguments were being made in another. The mother of the dead man caused a dramatic scene in court by protesting against the dismissal. Rising from her seat and sobbing violently she said: “Your honor, this is an outrage. Week after week I have urged the state’s attorney to bring the case to trial, but he has put it off and dis- charged the slayer of my boy. Here Is his picture,” and the weeping woman held up a photograph of her son. She was taken from the court room. The state’s altorney says Wickham will be reindicted.

Frank B. Nojesk, City Prosecutor Shoemaker Says His Con- firmation Cannot Be Reconsidered. City Prosecutor Shoemaker assumed the duties of his new position yesterday, and likes them so well that he proposes to hang on to the place, notwithstanding the talk of a reconsideration of the action by which he was confirmed, IHe maintains that no such reconsideration can take place after an ap- pointment has been confirmed, as t action places the appointee in oftice, and tho only way to get him out is then to prefer Tharges. He says that if an appointment was rejected the action could be reconsid- ered, as was done in the case of Mr. Kobitt, who was appointed city veterinarian, but not so when the appointment is acted on favorably. He claims to come pretty near knowing what the charter provides in this matter, as he framed the section making the oftice a statutory one instead of being provided for by ordinance, and he is confi- dent that his position is perfectly tenable, He further argues that if it was possible for the action to be reconsidered, inusmuch as the rule limiting a recousideration to one meeting is simply one of tho rules adopted by the council, that rule could be so amended as to provide for reconsideration at two, six or a_ dozen meetings later, or at any time, and that it would then be possible for the council to bounce a wan out of appointive office whenever it was disposed 1o recon- sider the action by which his appointment was confirmed, and that then there would be no tenure of any of these positions, in- stead of being two years, as provided by the charter, e RETRACTS HERR CONFI Has a Mild SION. nd as a Seq BRAZIL, Ind,, city W thrown in a state of great excitement today by Mrs. O.
