Id-Wat TuliniiKc's beautiful new tabernacle nl the comer of Clinton and Greene avenues, Brooklyn, was destroyed by lire yesterday aftetnoon. Flames broke out in the church edifice just after Um:,c who had attended the morning service had lift the building. Not only was the church destroyed, but the near by hotel and a number of buildu ps were also greatly damaged. This is the third time that the Tal mae tabernacle has been distroycn by lire. Iiy a singular coincidence each lire occurred on a Sui.d.iy. Ur. Talmac wns in the church shaking bauds with a number of people whin flames burst from the organ. The fire spread with lightning like rapidity and the sparks flew in all directions. The interior of the church was a seeth ing, roaring mass of flames inside of 3D minutes alter the fire was discovered. md at 1 o'clock the rool and the hand some sttcplc had fallen in. Great jets ol llanus sliot across to the Hotel Regent next to the church on Clinton ax-cnue. licfore the unplovcs gave the alarm thev attempted to get it under control. The fire soon spicad up to the third and fourth floors, however, and the irucsts md servants rushed pell mcll into the street. The firemen then devoted their ijrts to saving surrounding property. The Tabernacle uud Hotel Krucnl were completely gutted. Nothing remains lull the walls. I lie total loss is esti mated a little over a million dollars. The loss to the Hotel Regent, including the building, paintings ami thegucsts' house hold goods, will amount to about $(il)0, Hilll. The loss on the Tabernacle is about $K)ll,(i(H) and the adjoining build iugs are reported to be damaged to the extern of fJoO.otiO. It is said that the hotel was insured for s?r,i u.0l HI. It is supposed the file was caused bv a spark Ironioiicof the electric light wires be hind the organ. The Tabernacle was insured for SKID, HtO. The board ol trustees of the Tab crunch.' held u meeting in the house ol Ur. Talmagc. at which it was decided to rebuild the Tabernacle. The trustees say that I r. Talmage is to start on his trio around the world as first intended to morrow. The trusties prcpaicd a letter to Ur. Talmage asking h in. il he would accept the pastorate ol a new Tabernacle if it was built free Irom debt, and he replied that he would do to. The trustees ex pect to have a new Tabernacle buill in a vear Ine from all incumbrances. WII.I. til'.T TOIil-.TIII.U MlncrH mitl OperatlveH to Comer at Cleveland. Cl liX j-.i.AMi, O., May 1 1.

The Court Divided 011 Ilolli 01 Them, Ilut The Maiorlly KulCH A Yearly I.leeiiHe Tax 011 a Tel ricraith Coiuiuiuv Valid. Washington, May 1 I. The ordinance passed by the City of Charleston under an act of the legislature of South Caro lina by which the Postal Telegraph company was compelled to pay a yearly license of $000 fur business done exclu sively in that city is valid and the license is collectable, according to a decision of the Supreme court of the 1'nilcd States announced today by Justice Shiras. The deiision affirmed the judgmintof the Cir cuit court of the I'nitcd Stales for the district of South Carolina. Justice Harlan announced his dissent on the ground that as the telegraph company did not do business exclusively within the city of Charleston and the license was a tax upon a foreign corpor ation assessed lor the purpose of adding to the revenue of the city, it was in illecl tax on interstate commerce. justices Brown and Jackson dissinf. TIU Ki; WAS A CONTRACT. And The mate of TenueHsiee Vlo luted Il.Tlie Court Sasw Washington, May II. The Tennes see law, which the officials of that State contend authorizes them to tax the prop- ty of the Mobile and Ohio railroad company for the years lSS.V.i, inclusive. was declared by the Supreme court of the I'nitcd Statetoilav, in an opinion read by Justice Jackson, to be invalid as far as that company is concerned. The company xvas chartered by the State of Tennessee in Is Is with a provision exempting its capital stock from taxation and its property lor a period of -.1 years from its completion, and Hint no tax should lie levied which would reduce the divi dend below eight percent, per annum. The Supreme court decided that the taxes for lNN."i and lSi; could not be collected because they were within the period of L'fi years years subsequent to completion, but thai lor the snlis'. ipicnt years the taxes xxcre properly laid and should be collected. The railroad company appealed on the ground of violation of contract and the State officials set up a want ol jurisdiction by the Supreme court of the P idled States. The latter point, Inslice Jackson said, the Supreme court of the l ulled States over-rulcl. As to the ijucs tion, Did the exemption clause in the company's charter violate that section of the constitution of Tennessee which requires all property to be taxed ? the opinion is that s:iid legislature had power to exempt the property under consideration. The eight per cent, pro vision. Justice Jackson finds, constituted a contract between the corporation and State which the laxv in question contra veiled. The judgment of the Supreme court of Tennessee is therefore reversed. Chief Justice Fuller dissented. Justices Gray, Itrcwcr and Shiras joined the Chid Justice in his dissent. Til. I. MAN LOST AOAIN.
