THE OMAMA DAILY BEE: THURSDAY, APRIL 17, 1902. HEARING IN THE TAX CASE Bupreme Court Judges Put in a Day Listen- ing to the Arguments. NEITHER SIDE PLEASED WITH REFEREE Call for First m:mn‘uui. Convention Is Out, Fixing the Date at May 27 and the Place at Lincoln, fonal (From a Staft Correspondent.) LINCOLN, April 16.—(Special.)—The su- preme court gave its attention aimost ex- clusively today to argument in the Omgha tax case. Exceptions were filed by béth sides to the controversy and practically all of the fssues submitted to the referee were brought to the attention of the court. The respondents at the beginning of the hear- ing presented exceptions to the conclusion of the referee that the action of the Board of Equalization in overruling the complaints of the Real Estate exchange and readering judgment thereon, did not estop the re- | lators with reference to their five several | complaints referred to in the alternative writ, and further to the conclusion of the | refereo that the action of the board of | equalization In respect to these five rm-; plaints was arbitrary and deprived the re- | lators of a right to have the proceedings of | the board reviewed on error, and still fur- there to the conclusion that the costs be taxed against the respondents. The argun.ent was begun at 9 o'clock this | morning and with the exception of the noon recess continued until late this afternoom. James H. McIntosh, appearing as attorney tor the relators, contended that there were substantially only five lesues for discus- sion, which he stated as follows: Five ues in Case. First. Whether or not the relators, be- fore filng said five compiaints, a hearing of wh is now demanded, had filed with #ald board other complaints “in substance the same as specified and set forth In the five complaints. ' Second. That if they filed sald other com- plaints substantially the same as said five complaints, whether or not said other complaints’ “were fully heard and consid- ered” by said board Third. That if the relators filed other complaints, and they were not heard on them, whether or not the hearing was such a hearing as to amount in law o an adjudication of the merits of said five com- plaints. Fourth. Whether or not the matter of the equalization of the asscssment of sald corporations was still pending before said board and undisposed of, at the time said five complaints were filed and entertained by the board, and a time set for hearing the same Fifth. That if it should appear ‘that no witnesses were heard or testimony re- celved in support of any complaints against the assessment of said corporations, but that a re debate was had between the Omaha Reul Estate exchange on the one hand and the attorneys for said several corporations on the other, which debate on the part of said corporations in the nature of a demurrer to the sufficlency of the proceedings adopted by sald Real E tate exchange to support a judgment raf ing sald assessment, and was well taken, and that before the board had taken any action on the proceedings of id meetin, between the Real Estate exchange and sal corporations the relators filed their said five complaints, which were in due form, and. the board received and entertalned sald complaints and set them down for a | hearing on evidence at 2 o'clock Monday, the 20th, then, as a matter of fact and of law, jt must appear that no hearing wasg ever had that could in any way affect the merits of the relators' said complaints, or amount “to an adjudication thereof. and that in overruling the same without a liearing, and adjourning sine die before the hour appointed for the hearing of the testimony In support of said compiaints. sald Board of Equalization arbitrarily denled a right which the law gave to the relators and falled to perform a duty en- foined upon them by Jaw, which duty this court will fssue Its mandate to compel them to perform. No Place for Hairaphitt I closing the attorney for the relators asked that hair-spiltting Bophistries and legal technicalitiés be not allowed to stand in the way of the rights which he was there assert! He said: Too arrogant and selfish willingly to contribute proportionately with the small property owner to the support of the gov- srnment that has enriched them and that protects them, shall they now be permitted by & resort to legal subtleties and technical rules inapplicable to the case to avold the mandate of the court which is the only mgency to which the body of the tax can resort to avert the threatened in of having to pay not merely their own taxes but the taxes of these 'corporations. 100? Halr-splitting sophistries and legai technicalities must not be permitted to stand in the way of the important and valuable rights we are here asserting. All we ask is that these corporations pay thelr “equal and proportionate share of taxes. do not ask that they do more. It {s not fair that they do les Congressional Convention Call.

DENVER, April 18.—Startling develop- ments have come to light regarding the death of Representative Albert Gabrin, who died at his home in this city early on the evening of January 8, from what was then supposed to be acute gastritis, superinduced by fermented wine used in making a mixed drink, which he and other members of his family consumed at a family reunion on New Year's day. Shortly after his death Dr. Wilder per- formed an autopsy, removing the stomach and portions of other intestinal organs. These, with samples of the wine used in the punch, were turned over to Dr. Hillkowitz, who made a chemical analysis He has filed with Dr. Kleiner, the physi- cian who attended Mr. Gabrin when he died, his report on what he found Dr. Hillkowits says he found large quan- tities of arsenic in the wine and traces of the poison in the Internal organs, espe- clally in the stomach. The chemical analy- sis showed there were three and onme-halt grains of arsenic to a tumblerful of wine. Such an amount could never be ascribed to any accidental impurity in thes wine, says the chemist's report. The death of Mr. Gabrin is to be investi- gated by the Woodmen, of which soclety he was a member in good standing at the time of his death. He carried a large lite insurance policy. The payment of the policy has been stopped, pending the result of the investigation. Miss Agnes Gabrin, sister of the dedeased, and his father, Hermn Gabrin, both of whom drank wine at the reunion, are very sick and have been since that time. The condition of the young woman last night was serious. Dr. Albers, the physician at- tending them, says they are suffering from acetate or arsenic polsoning, over three months after the fatal dose was drunk.

BRUSSELS, April 16.—The diplomatic, private and public galleries of the Cham- ber of Representatives were filled to the capacity today when the debate on the pro- posed revision of the comstitution began Mr. Bernhaert, the former president of the chamber and secretary of state, opened the discussion. He was frequenly Interrupted by M. Vam der Velde, the soclalist leader, with shouts of “universal suffrage Is eu- preme.” M. Bernaert expressed the opinion the present Belglum clectoral system was satisfactory. He referred to the numerous social laws passed during the last fifteen years, at the behest of the soclalists, and sald the latters’ sole recognition of the passage of these laws was the declaratton of a general strike, accompanied by threats of violence. Atter the speech of M. Bernaert and a speech delivered by M.

DeSwet de Nayor, tomorrow when it is expected & vote will be taken which will instil life into the proceedings. The great stir on the streets on the ad- journment of the chamber dwindled to the appearance of 200 persons, who accom- deputies to the office of their organ, La Peuple, where M. Van der Velde addressed the crowd. He sald the day's proceedings in the chamber had not modified the situation, and the govern- ment was still recalcitrant and had shifted the responsibility for a dissolution of Par- llament, which the revisionists would ae- | mand if the chamber rejects the proposal to revise the constitution, upon the king, who thus far had been silent. The collapse of the proposed demonstration was attri- bpted to the drenching rain and overwhelm- {10g precautions taken by the police, which seem to place further serious disturbances in Brussels out of the question. A feeling fs gaining ground that the gov- ernment will entirely reject the proposed revision of the constitution. This evening it was announced that 150,- 000 men were out on strike In the districts of Mons, Charlerol and Liege alone, The number of strikers in the chief in- dustrial centers 1s estimated as follows: At Charleroi, 50,000; in the central dis- trict, 27,000; at Borinage, 000; at Liege, 30,000, and at Verviers, §,000. Later m tne day large ,accessions to the ranks of the strikers at Charlerol brought the total in that district to 60,000. The glass works at Courcelles were prac- tlcally destroyed by fire last night. It is ended in what was almost a ry Speeches. | estimated that the damage will amount to 600,000 fraucs. It is believed the fire was started by an incendiary. Disturbances were reported from various parts of the country last night. Small bombe were exploded at Liege and elsewhere. A bottle filled with gunpowder was exploded at the door of a residence at the &l works at Mariemont, near La Louviere. Only trifing damage was done by the ex- plosion of <the bombs. At Renaix an earthenware jar with a fuse attached to it was discovered on the threshold of the Catholic club. ~ The fuse was extinguished by a passerby. The only other incident at Renalx was the throwing of a plece of lighted tow into a schoel. Civil Guards Rebel. A detachment of civic guards on duty in the suburb of Etterbeek became disgruntied yesterday.evening on account of being keot on duty In the heavy rain and protested agalnst remaining under arms any longer. Several of the guards threw their cart- ridges into the gutter and shook their fists in the officers’ faces. This, however. an isolated attack. The clvic guards generally are thotoughly reliable. On their behavior depends the tranquillity of this eity. Prince Albert, son of the Count of Flan- ders, and heir. presumptive to the throne of Belglum, is a major in the gremadier guards, at present held in readiness for emergencles. The prince declined a prope- sition to be replaced, temporarily, as major of the grenadiers. He sald: “If my men are called to a post of danger it will be my duty to lead them."” King Leopold congratulated the prince on his decision. The cabinet ministers, at & meeting held here at moon today, dis cussed the situation growing out of the popular demand for a revision of the con- stitution, and measures of Increased stringency, In both the city and suburbs were taken In anticipation of today's de- bate in the chamber of representatives on the propesals looking to a revision of the constitution.
