C., April 17.—The ‘Attorney-General to-day filed United States Supreme Court a mem- orandum for the consideration of the Justices giving the Government's view on the petition for a rehearing of the in- come ‘ax question filed by the opponents The Government's mem- orandum 4s as follows: The United States respe tfully repre- ‘ing is granted, the rehearing should cover all the legal ed, and not merely those as to which’ the Court, are equal Whether a tax on Incomes gener- inclusive of rents and interest oF dividends from investments of all kinds, is or is not a direct tax within meaning of the Federal Gonstitution is @ matter upon which, the Governinent ‘has. really never been heard, Its position at the argument was that juestion had been settled by an ex- position of the Constitution practically contemporaneous with its adoption, @ subsequent unbroken line of Judie precedents, by the concurri ated action of the department jovernment and by the concensus of all text writers and authorities by whom the subject has heretofore been consid- t ernment of the new views of its taxing power, announced in the opinion of the | t can hardly be exagger- “\irst—Pushed to their logical conclu- sion, they practically exclude from the direct operation of the y Feal estate of the country invested personal clude it because, it realty and personality are taxable only by the rule of appor- the inevitable inequalities re om such a plan ere eo gross und flagrant as to abso: lutely debar any re That such Ine ort to It. qualities must result is practically admitted. the only suggestion | n reply being that the power to directly tax realty and personalty was not meant 4s an ordinary, every-day pow- er; that the United States was expected to rely for Its customary revenues upon » and excises; mean. impose direc taxts only in extraordinary emergencies and as a wort of dernier resort.

Mr, Gruber yesterday received a sec-| ond request from the trustees to sever, his connection with the organization. He at once got out his typewriter and evolved a reply, which he sent to Sec-/ retary Fulton this morning. He tells Secretary Thomas A, Fulton that this action taken without pre vious notice, and he was not accorded the privilege of appearing before the committee to make a defense, He de- clares the club {s setting a bad example for political bosses, who are sure to emulate wha? superior individuals like the members of the Board of Trustees may do. Gruber says he sees the name of the Rev, John P. Peters and others among the trustees who called ' upon him last Fall for the purpose of getting the Republican organization of the Twenty-third District to indorse a Dem- ocrat for Alderman, and it developed that this Democrat might be elther the brother of the reverend doctor or an Jundertaker connected with his church. He told the Reverend Doctor and other | trustees then that it seemed to him as if Good Government Club B was in the ess of supplying candidates for and not looking solely towards se- f Bood Koverntiment. ince he has been twenty-one Ts of age, Gruber says, he has voted against the’ ‘Tammany nominations in ty, and always identified himselt Rep fi party, In the cam- reaulted in the et headed by William “Which, in his opinion, pede did he defeat of ‘Tan from the Mayo w, my dear Mr. Gruber, let me t my ‘eratitude to you Suited In such & plorious victory for Mr. Gruber closes his epistle thus: it up, my dear Mr. Fulton, you Independent Strengthen The Executive Committee ofthe Inde- Pendent County Organization will meet to-morrow night at the hall, 114 West Fourteenth street.
