The Court Passes on Only Two Points, and Finds Ajratnst the Act on Those On AIL Other Points Raised the Court Is Divided and. If o Opinion Thereon la Given. Washington. April 8. The announce ment of the decision of the Supreme Court 0?the United States in the income tax oaaes today was made in the presence of a crowded court room, the lobby being thronged to its utmost. A At 1 o'clock the Chief Justice had just finiihed readir.g the decision. He said Ipneqwstiiaa8 whetfaeror not the tax wm one on rents froo real estate and therefore a-direct ta,'and he anaotinced that the coprt has decided that it is a tax op real estate, therefore a direct tax, gnd. as provided for, in the present law, unconstitutional. c The opinion of the Chief Tustice ato declares that the tax on -municipal and State bonds is unconstitutional. On all other points the court . is equally divided and no opinion thereon is given. The decision of the court below on these points is reversed and a similar entry is made in the case of lohn G. Moore. . - Members of the court, except associate Justice Jackson, entered the chamber promptly at noonand were received with the ceremonial attention that marks their every entrance, every one in the court room ti.-iagto his feet while the proces sion of Justices, headed by the Marshal of the court, marched in a dignified way to their seats. A few cases of minor importance were disposed of, and the Chief lust ice an nounced that, at the conclusion of the sitting Thursday, the court would ad journ over 6ood Friday. There were several orders bv the court, after which the great case of the day was read bv him. He said, amidst almost painful silence : ' I am charged with the duty of an nouncing the opinion and judgment of the court in the case of Charles. Pollock vs. tbe Farmers Loan and TrustCo.et al," Then fallowed the decision in full. BAIN; THUNDER, LIGHTNING. Streets, Washed Badly In the City iteso's t'ona at Ulltruore Goes. One of the heaviest rains rAsheville has experienced in some time fell yesterday, accompanied in tbcaftcrnooajiytawnder and lightning. Unpaved streets all over the city were badly washed. Several inches of mud covered the car track at the intersection of North Main and Chestnut streets, and tbe track on North Main was covered in several places, so that cars could not maktaljne trio until the line bad been cleared. The volume oi water that came down Town branch was too much for the South Main culvert, and tbe street was flooded at that point. The fell nt Biltmore was so great that the dam at Reed's pond gave away and tbe pond disappeared. The great rush of water overflowed the track of the Asheville and Soartanbure railroad. The incoming train bad pased just before the break occurred, but the south bound Florida Fiver was caught this side and delaved several hours, a construction force being called into requi sition to make the track secure where it had been undermined bv the water. Tbe dam has stod for 14 vrars and there was a large quantitv of fish in the pond. These were spread over the coun try wherever the liberated water went, and a number of people have been gath ering np the fish today. Caas. Wbitaker tells The Citizen that tbe m il will soon be running again If tbe dam is not rebuilt the water will be turned o the mill through the race. borne of the recently planted macadam on Woodfin street got a good test during tbe shower. As a result a few cart loads of U were washed into Central avenne. D S Hildebrand's new dam in Chunn's Cove could not withstand tbe pressure and was carried awav. Tbe street committee of the Board oi Aldermen went over the city today on a tour, of inspection as to tbe damage done by the rains. The damage was not an great as had been expected. Several bridges were found damaged and orders were at once given for repairs. 1 ne ramtall during tbe dav. reported by Observer von Ruck, was 3 15 inches. NICE PEOPLE THESE.

A Texas Theological Student Asks Miss Wells Some Pointed Questions Miss Wells Misrepresents Susan B. Anthony's Contribution to the Facts la the Case. Rochester, N. Y., April 8. Last even ing at the First Baptist church Miss Ida Wells said negro lynching had increased in the South in a marked degree: that between 1$82 and 1892 1000 colored people were lynched on alight pretexts, and, in many cases, when they -were known to be innocent. She gave a nntr ber of illustrations, bearing upon her conclusion, when a theological student, who said be hailed from Texas, arose and said: . . . . T3o you assume t hat all the negroes that. have been lynched in the South since ithe war have been innocent ?" "I never said that," replied Miss Well, "I simply claim that they were innocent in tbe eye of the la w. No man is guilty until tound so by tna I." Miss Wells then resumed ber lecture. She said it was considered a crime tor negroes to intermarry with whites; that this was manitestlv nnjust tothe colored women of tbe boutb. She insistid that ii it was megai lor wnite men to marrt colored women, it should also be illegal for them to form alliances with them. A white man might live with a colored woman with impunity, but if he sbonld marry her it would be a crime. Here the Texan, in evident excitement, said : "Do tbe negroes want to marry white folbs? If the negroes are so badlv treated in the S ;nth. why do thev not come North or go West, or to some more congenial clim. ?" "They Hre not able to emigrate," rc lled Miss Wells, "because thev are always in debt to their landlords, being paid in checks for provisions only good at plantation stores. I woold remain in the South m vselt bad I not been forbid den to come back on oenaltv of losinu my lite." Miss busan B. Anthony, who was present, could restrain herself no longtr. She jumped to her feet, and with fire in ber eve she said : "The colored people receive no bitter treatment in tbe North than tbev do in tbe South. That is why thev 'do net come here. Inonr city only last week a dance was to be given in No. 3 school for the benefit of children of the seventh grade, and tickets were issued to children lor 10 cents. Now it happened that there was a colored girl in that grade, who wanted to get in as well as white child ren, and her mother gave her the money But when Bbe went to her teacher. Mis ! Stuart, she was told tbat.'ii she insisted on attending, none of the white chilrfi. wouia go ana mat tne amir would ;De given up; so tbe poor child twa-s turned away; I consider that that outrage on the feelings of that colored girl was the result ot the same spirit that inspires lynching in the South." Miss Anthonv's denunciation of these distinctions among Christian people ot tbe North as will as South was dramat ic, and the theloeic ilstud -nt from Texas subsided in the outburst of approval on the part of the audi-nce that followed. REVOLUTIONISTS DISAPPEAB. Cuban Patriots Are Dead or ia a Vile Jail. New York, April 8ih. The Herald's special from Key West, Fla., says: Pas sengers on the steamer Mascotte, which arrived Irom Havana late Saturday nubt, say that the assault on Cabanas was more serious than was at first re ported. Moro castle was assaulted at the same time, and an attempt was made to blow mp the powder magazine in Ha vana harbor. I he plot appears to have been extensive, several efforts havtner been made during tbe last few nights to carrv it out. Tbe assault on Cabanas is b lieved to have been an attempt to reach Sanguilly to wreaK vengeance on mm. The rattle of tbe artillery Irom Moro castle to Cabanas while tbe engagement lasted was distinctlv heard aboard ves sels in tbe harbor. No details ot the at fair can be learned from he authorities. The Press publishes onlv tne bare fact, but tbe disappearance of several promi eent revolutionists from Havana known to have been implicated in the plot tells its own story. It is said that Moro Castle and Cabanas are crowded with political prisoners. The air is stifling ann tne ceils blty and tbe inmates arc snfferiog every privation. Murders have Deen doubled since the attack. English Commander Resigns. Paris, April 8.
