In the congregation that gathered to at
tend the services many new faces were no

has been erected have exhibited considerable
Interest and the pastor and congregation will
attempt to Identify themselves with them as
much as It Is possible.
TRINITY CATHEDRAL SERVICES.
At the early morning service at Trinity
cathedral the church was crowded , nearly
400 communicants receiving the sacrament
from the bishop of the dloccie. Right Rev
erend George WorthlnKton , and the dean of
the cathedral , Charles H. Gardner. Hut If
the church wai crowded In the morning , It
was packed and Jammed nt the 11 o'clock
service. Chairs were placed In all the aisles ,
two and some places three deep , yet tlie
crowd could not be accommodated , and , while
Hundreds stood , other hundreds were com
pelled to turn reluctantly away.
The decorations were exceedingly effective
and beautiful , lilies of course predominating
In the color Echcmo. And they were every
where ; nbout the base of the pulpit , enclosing
the litany desk , nodding their snow-white
heads from the b.iptismnl font , about the
choir stalls , Illtimltutlng the altar with their
light , while at the base of the raredos were
daisies , their pretty color of yellow blending
finely with the stately flowers that rose and
fell with the deep tones of the organ. In
silent sympathy seemingly with the devo
tional spirit pervading the cathedral of the
diocese of Nebranka.
Much might be written of the musical
srvlce , much In compliment to Mr. J. E.
Butler , who labored Ind f tlgably for a per
fect ensemble , and ho cimo as near securing
It yesterday as hast been attained In Omaha
or the west. A good deal of the music was
new , finely elaborated. In keeping with Its
churchly character , and the choir sang the
numbers with splendid effect. There was
no attempt nt the morning service to mar
the beauty of the ensemble work by solos ,
which was thoroughly appreciated , although
the quartet , Miss Coon , Miss Dlshop , Mr.
Wllklns and Mr. Lmnbard , were heard to
good advantage In the anthem , "God Hath
Appointed a Day , " by Tours. The Hallelu
jah Chorus from "Tho Messiah" was also
rendered In a nittslclanly manner , the choir.
In Its tempo and attack , showing most care
ful rehearsal. The festival communion serv
ice In D , by llov. II. II , Woodward , was
now to the congregation , the religious char
acter of the work and the artistic handling
of tlie themes being favorably remarked.
Mr. Hutler , who was at the organ , has so
greatly Improved in his Uchnlque , and has
so visibly broadened In his playing that Ids
labors of yesterday were not without full j
compensation from an artistic standpoint.
Ills playing of the offertory In D minor , by
E , M. Lott , was a fine prelude to the service
of gong and thanksgiving that followed.
At 3 o'clock the children of the cathedral
had their Innings , the cantata , "The Risen
Lord , " being given with entire credit to the
boys and girls.
As for the service of last night , It was
< llstlnctlvf-Iy choral In character. There were
. olos by Miss Coon , "I Know that My Re
deemer Llveth. " tint Immortal tone poem
by Handel ; by Mr. Wllklns , who s.ing "I
Will Mention , " by Sullivan , nnd by Mr.
Lumbard , who san ? "The Palms. "
Dean Gardner was the celebrant at
the 11 o'clock service , the speaker at the
S o'clock service , and also the priest at the
evening service , Rev. Mr. n. R. Stearns
being the eplstolor at the 11 o'clock strvic ? .
MORNING FOR THE CHILDREN.
At the Ilanscoin .Park Methodist church
the regular morning service was dispensed
with and the morning hour given up to the
Sunday school children , who rendered a very
pleasing program , appropriate to the occasion.
A specially ( selected choir of forty voices
had charge of the music of the service. One
of the earlier features of the service wns the
rendition of the tola. " 0 , Rejoice , " by W. J.
C. Putnum Cramer , who had taken his posi
tion In the tower. Then followed the pro
cessional hymn , "Welcome , Happy Morning , "
by the choir. The pastor , Rev. W. P. Mur
ray , conducted the scriptural reading and
offered an Invocation , but there was no ser
mon or ilddrc s ! There'wcro"recitations by
Bertha Clark , Ivan Mann , Sidney Taylor ,
Ilodney Scott Roy Clark , Ida Lclsge , Hazel
Ilalph , Mildred Howes , Marguerite Williams ,
Mogdalena Maynll , Helena White , Helen
Hurray , Adah Patrick , Helen Haughman ,
Abbn Lelghton. Mildred Clark and Joldcll
Parks. All of the recitations were given
with the childishzest , which adds so much
to the character of such entertainment : ; , and
taken with the songs with which they were
liberally Interspersed , they told the story of
the Savlur of man , HU death on the cross ,
Ills resurrection and ascension , In a manner
that appealed to the Interest of the children
ns well as to the adults who wuro present.
At the service the choir rendered several
fliithems , some of them of an elaborate char
acter , but all chosen with especial reference
to the day.
WORSHIP AT ALL SAINTS' .
The Interior of All Saints' church presented
a beautiful sight to the Easter worshiper
yesterday morning. The entire eastern portion
tion of the large auditorium was completely
banked with lilies and palms. The Altar was
entirely surrounded by the profusion of
Easier foliage , while the organ loft , the choir
und the rostrum , and the reading desks were
practically hidden. Though Ihe floral decora
tions were exceedingly lavish , they were In
the greatest possible taste. Every decoration
was fiymlwllcal of the day , and the Easter
Illy , which blooms for this day nlone , and
which , of all the products of the flowery
kingdom , tins been selected as the emblem
of tlii resurrection , shed Its fragrance Into
every part of the church. The muslcnl pro
gram was very elaborate and was rendered
by tlie regular surpllcod choir. The services
opened with the processionals. "Christ Is
Risen , " "Christ , Our Passover" and thu Te
Duuni In H Hat , by Dudley Huck. Then fol
lowed the jubilate by fiulllvan , an nntlteni ,

At St. Barnabas' church there was a large
nttemUnee. A unique floral cross of Easter
lilies , bridal and meteor roses , was placed
over Iho entrancs to the edifice. At the
morning and evening services tlie music was
especially well rendered by llio choir al

ladles ) . Great thing * were undertaken In
Kinging Smart's anthem , "Th Lord Is My
Strength. " the full communion service of
E. ' J. Eyre , and' the evening servlc ? o [
'Clarke-Whltfrld. The parts were well bal

lienvy perhaps. The "leads" In the fugue
passages , notably In the brilliant "Gloria In
ExcolsU" ot the communion service , and also
In the "Magnificat" of the evening service ,
were promptly and well takon. The chorus
work throughout was excellent and the shad

Lovely flowers graced the altar , rivaling In
purity the spotless white lunging ! . Delicate
borders of urn I lux w ro ranged 'on hanging !
of pulpits and lecturn , while wreaths of the
same encircled the pillars and cornice *
of the rood screen. An abundance of faster
lilies , scattered about the sanctuary and
choir , completed the floral embellishments ,
the whole bslng given brilliant effect by the
soft light of many candles.
The attendance at the early communion
was unexpectedly large , and Included the re
cent confirmation class. Large congregations
were present at the 11 o'clock and evening
services. Hev. 1'aul Matthews preached In
the morning , and Uev. C. II. Young at
night. The services , as usual , were choral
throughout. The special music announced
was rendered.
ST. PlIILOMRNA'S CATHEDRAL.
Every scat In St. Phllomena's cathedral
was occupied when the first notes of Joyous
song signaled the beginning of pontifical high
mass at t > a. m. The scene was beautiful and
Inspiring. The spotless marble of the altar
glistened with reflected light , Its terraces
were banked with cut flowers and Easter
lilies , and sprays ot smllax entwined the
columns of the tower. Hundreds of candles
heightened the effect with mellow llsht , and
a background of potted palms brought Into
sharp relief the graceful outlines of the altar.
The priests , robed In white and gold , nnd
the costumed acolytes , In the foreground ,
completed a picture of moving beauty and
solemnity. As the mass proceeded , the
shadows of night rapidly vanished and ere
the right reverend bishop bestowed the pontifical
tifical blessing the rays of a dancing Master
sun penetrated the building.
Mass was celebrated by Ut. Uev. IJIshop
Scannell. assisted by Fathers Kelley , Carroll ,
Oalvln , O'Ciillahan. and two fathers from
Crelghton college. Kully one-half tha con-
Rresatlon approached the sacrament.
Hrown's Jubilee mass was rendered by the
choir In a faultless manner. The solo parts
were taken by Messrs. Jatn s C. Swift , James
Ititsh , Charles Morlarty , and John Itrennan ,
comprising the Philharmonic quartet , and
Mrs. T. A. Cobry and the Mlises E. and 0.
Croft and Plilloiuena Swift. In both solo
and chorus parts the choir gave evidence of
thorough and systematic training by the
organist , Miss Margaret Swift.
Low masses followed at 7 , 8 nnd 0 , the
day's service ? concluding with solemn high
mass at 10:30. : at which the musical program
of the first mass was repeated. i
\VEST.MINSTEIl AND KNOX.
At Westminster Presbyterian church no
elaborate program of Easter exercises had
been arranged , although the services were
beautiful and Impressive , by reason of their
simplicity. | The altar was completely hidden
by a mass ot lilies and palms , but no other
decorations were visible. Miss Jessie Towne ,
who was at the organ , Inaugurated HIP serv
ice with the prelude , "I know that My Uc-
dcemcr Llveth , " from the "Messiah. " The
choir , composed of Misses lloeder and llen-
dcrsin and Messrs. Johnson and Prlc ? , sang

"Tlio Lord Is My Shepherd , " rendered with
much feeling and expression by Mrs. Wl-
lielm and Miss Rooilor , the contralto solo ,
"Easter Song , " by Miss Hoedcr , and the
violin solos by Mr. Adelmann. The musical
numbers closed with the organ postludc , by
Miss Towno , who played the famous Halle
lujah chorus , from the "Messiah. " The
pastor , Hev. John Gordon , preached on "The
llesurrectlnn , " and told anew the old , old
story of Christ's sacrifice for the whole
world.
The services at Knox Presbyterian church
were devoted to anthems commemorative of
the day , and a sermon by Uev. Asa Seard ,
who compared the constant care of a gardener
over his garden to the vigilance of God over
Ids people. God placed the seeds of Chris
tianity tn the hearts of humanity and -He
expected flowers of brotherly love , and good
will to blossom , Instead of the needs of
wickedness.
FIRST AND SECOND PRESBYTERIAN.
The First Presbyterian church was simply
but beautifully decorated with. Easter lilies
grouped In a solid bank of grc-en and white
about the altar piece. At both services the

difference to style , th ? red-breasted brother

vation army conducted a preliminary Easter
service , which was completed at the modest
church of the Salvationists , on Davenport

them ts staple , the familiar millinery of
black and rod. The Salvationists held Easter
services with Increased enthusiasm and a
depth of fervor which won many commenda
tions from the spectators.
The crush at the Church of the Geed
Shepherd was so great that even with extra
chairs In tbo alslca the capacity was Inade
quate to accommodate tbo crowd. The
choral anil Mural features of the services
wcro particularly attractive. Bishop Wortlt-
Ington prtached upon the subject , "Christ Is
Risen. "
At Kountze Memorial church the Easter

WOMEN EDITORS WORKING.
Arc Determined to Muko tlin Slny Iuy Hoc
n \Vliinar.
The managing editor of the May Day Bee
and the heads of departments met In solemn
conclave Saturday afternoon at the editorial
room , 419 Bee building. Grave questions
were discussed , and , to Judge by the faces
of the worn on , there Is no lack of the sense
of tbo Importance of the work before them.
Every ono seems to enter Into the spirit of
the work with heartiness and a deslro to
show that Omaha Is not behind other cities
In ability or enterprise.
The women of Buffalo are also to get out
a May Day paper , and no little curiosity Is
felt to know which will be the better. Of
course allowance should 1)3 made for the fact
that Omaha has but one-half as many Inhab
itants as the metropolis of Western New
York , but Nebraska push ought to count for
something.
Perhaps the most gratifying thing about
the affair so far Is the readiness with which
the women of all churches are responding to
the requests for help. At least half of the
department editors and all the editorial
writers but one are not Presbyterian , and
there Is a fair proportion of other denomina
tions throughout the corps. Indeed , there Is
no thought of sect In this work , any more
than there Is In the treatment of patients at
the hospital. The Presbyterian women have
assumed the responsibility and are doing
most of the hardest > vorls , but the literary
part Is to be by the representative women of
Omaha , orthodox or not.
The ofllco has n waste basket now and
several other essentials of a well regulated
newspaper office. Search is still being inado
for an cfllce cat , but none has yet been
found.
Perhaps the happiest woman on the staff
are the women who have for years tried to
solicit advertising for programs , reports ,
etc. . and who have become fumlllar with the
suave but chilling remark : "We advertise
only In the newspapers. " Now Is the sum
mer of their sweet content , and they are
only too glad to wait upon these men and
ask them how much space they will take In
the woman's newspaper. At present there
appears to be no danger of lack of adverjjs-
Ing. The enormous circulation and the rea
sonable rates arc Inducements not to be
withstood by the man live enough to adver
tise anywhere except on county fences.
Short , crisp articles by women are
Ited , as the editors cannot personally ask
every woman In the city , and It Is their de
sire to have plenty of material from which
to select. Of poetry there Is not as yet any
over supply , and the spring poetry editor
claims to be lonesome.
Women are said to be lacking. In the sense
of humor , and In order to controvert this
statement It Is asked that original Jokes by
women be sent In at an early date. All mat
ter Intended for publication may be sent to
room 419 , Bee building , where all business
communications should also be sent.
Miss Mary Falrbrother Is to be the city
editor , with Mrs. Wlnlleld S. Strawn nnd Mlsa
Marie Hopkins as associates.
Mrs. P. L. Perlno Is to have charge of the
hospital department , a position for which she
Is eminently fitted , as she was one of the
workers In the first hospital association In
Omaha ,
EASTER OF THS BEARS.
Kntcrtnlnmcnt liy the Turner * nt Junior
llnll f.nftt F.vi'iilng.
The Easter festival entertainment given by
the "Bears" In Turner hall last night was
enjoyable from beginning to end. The Turner
orchestra opened the entertainment with a
grand musical selection. This was followed
by a song by the Turner Quartet club , en
titled "Im Mai" ( In Beautiful May ) . Being
enccrcd , t'no club gave a flno rendition of
Heine's beautiful composition "In EInetn
Kuehlen Grunde , " or In English "The Mill
Song. "
Mr. Philip Andres , who Is what Is known
In this society as the "Els , " Bear , gave a
very pathetic recitation called ' "The Emi
grant , " and received well merited applause.
Mr. Julius Rau , who Is the possessor of a
very magnificent deep bass voice , sang In
English "Pearl's Solo , " and was greeted with
loud applause.
Mr. W. F. Stoecker , who Is a natural born
actor , recited In a thoroughly professional
style an amusing sketch , "Die Uutsclipartle , "
which In English Is "The Sliding Party. "
A very funny llttlo farce. "Eln Zimmcr ru
Zwlo Helton , " "A Room With Two Beds , "
was the next thing on the program. It was
well enacted and excited much mirth. "Ne-tte
Melther , " or "Good Roomers , " an amusing
burlesque , was rendered very efficiently by
the "Bears" with histrionic talent , and the
whole entertainment was concluded by a
"Festgetrampel , " or "Bear Tramp , " which , It
gees Without saying , was well received.
( iiirdrn Spot ( if-iu-rut Plan.
The agricultural commission , having
charge of the garden spot project , has de
cided on general plans.
Gardens of about one-third an acre will
be allotted to each family ofthe unem
ployed and deserving poor , with the neces
sary seeds for the purpose of raising enough
potatoes to last them through the winter
and furnish vegetables through the sum
mer.
The crops wjll be planted , cultivated and
harvested by the people themselves , under
the supervision of this commission , and It
is expected that all the unemployed and de
serving poor will take full advantage of this
scheme , otherwise they cannot expect aid
next winter from the county commissioners
and charitable societies.

WASHINGTON , April 14. The following
la the text of President Cleveland's reply to
the Chicago committee :
EXECUTIVE MANSION.VashlnBtoti , I ) .
C. , April 13. Ui-titlotni > ii : 1 am tiuicli grati
fled by the exceedingly kind und compli
mentary Invitation you have tendered me
on , behalf of many citizens of C'hlciigo to
be their guest at a gathering In the Interest
of FOUIIU money nnd wholesomi ! financial
doctrine. My attachment to this cause Is
so great , nnd 1 know so well the hospital
ity nnd kindness of the people of Chicago
that my personal Inclination 1st strongly in
favor of ncci-ptlmr your Haiti ring Invita
tion , but my judgment nnd my estimate
ot the proprieties of my oillclal placu oblige
me to lorcgo the enjoyment of participating
In the occasion you contemplate. I hope ,
however , that the event will mark the be
ginning of nn earnest nnd aggressive ef-
lort to disseminate among the | > eopie safe
and prudent financial Idi-us. Nothing more
Important can engage the attention of pa
triotic eltlz-ns , beniuso nothing In so vital
to the welfare of our fellow countrymen
nnd to the strength , prosperity and honor
of our nation. The situation confronting u
demands that those who appreciate tlie Im
portance of this subject and those who
ought to be the first to see Impending dim-
ger should no longer remain Indifferent or
over-confident. If the sound money Bentl-
ment abroad In the land is to nave us from
mischief nnd disaster , It must be crystal-
Ized nnd combined nnd made Immediately
active. It la dangerous to overlook the
fact that a vast number of our people , with
scant opportunity thus far to examine the
question In nil Its aspects , have neverthe
less been Ingeniously pressed with specious
suggestions , which In this time of misfor
tune nnd depression find willing listeners ,
prepared to give credence to any scheme
which Is plausibly presented as u remedy
for their unfortunate condition.
NEED OF THE HOUR.
What Is now needed more than anything
else Is a plain nnd simple presentation of
the argument In favor of sound money. In
other words , It Is a time for the American
people to reason together as members of
a great nation , which can promise them
a continuance of protection and safety
only so long as Its solvency Is unsuspected ,
its honor unsullied nnd the soundness of
Its money unquestioned. These things are
111 exchanged for the Illusions of a base cur
rency and groundless hope of advantages
to be gained by a disregard of our financial
credit nnd commercial standing among the
nations of the world. If our people were
Isolated from all others * , nnd If tlie question
of our currency could be treated without
regard to our relations to other countries ,
Its character would bs a matter of com
paratively little Importance. If the Amer
ican people were only concerned In the
maintenance of their precious life among
themselves they might return to the old
days of barter , and In this primitive man
ner ncqulro from each other the materials
to supply the wants of their existence.
But If American civilization .weft- satisfied
with this it'Vvonld abjectly fail In Its high
nnd noble rrm-sltih.
In these "restless days the farmer Is
tempted by.-ithe assurance that though our
currency may-bo debused , redundant and
uncertain. Hitcha situation will Improve
the price Of. , his. products. Let us remind
him that he must buy as well as sell ; that
his dreams of plenty arc shaded by the cer
tainty that df the prlc1 of the things he
has to sell Is nominally enhanced , the cost
of the things ] no , must buy will not remain
stationary ; that the best prices which cheap
money proclaims arc unsubstantial and
elusive , and that even If they were real
and palpable" he must necessarily bo left
far behind ' 'for their enjoyment. It ought
not to be dltilcult to convince the wage
earner that , , f liftchange , , would reach him
least of all nnd last of all. In an unhealthy
stlmulatlon.0f ptlces , an Increased cost of
all the needs of his home must belong to
his portion'while ' he Is nt the same time
vexed with 1-iuilHhliiK visions of Increased
wagen und nn earler lot. . The pages of lils.-
tory nnd.ojciterltfflcu are full of this lesson.
ATTIOMD'-IVtTO CREATE PREJUDICE.
An Insidious attempt in made to create
a prejudice against the advocates of a safe
und sound currency by the Insinuation ,
more or less directly mad" , that they be
long to financial and business classes , and
therefore are not only out of sympathy
with the common people of the hind , but
for scltlsh and wicked purposes are willing
to sucrltlce the interests of thosp outside
their circles ) . I believe that capital and
wealth , through combinations and other
means , sometimes ) gain an undue advan
tage , and it must be conceded that the
maintenance of a. sound currency , may. In
a sense , be Invested with greater or less
importance to Individuals , according to their
condition and circumstances. H IB , how
ever , only a. difference In degree , since It
Is utterly Impossible that any one In our
broad land , ik'h or poor , whatever may
b > his occupation , nnd whether dwelling In
n center of finance and commerce or In
a remote corner of our domain , can bo
really benefited by a financial pchenic not
alike beneficial to all onr people , or that
any one should be excluded from a common
und universal Interest In the safe character
and stable vnlue of the currency of the
country-
In our relation to thin question we arc
all In business , for we all buy und sell ; so
we alt have to do with financial operations ,
for we all earn money nnd spend It. We
cannot escape our mtci dependence. Mer
chants and dealerH arc In every neighbor
hood , nnd each has Its chops und manu
factures. Wherever the wants of man exist
business and finance In some degree nro
found , related tn one direction to those
whose wants they supply , and In another
to the more 'extensive bu.lnr-ss and flounce
to which they arc tributary.
FLUCTUATIONS FELT KVKRYWHI3RE
A fluctuation In prices at the seaboard
la known the same day or hour In the re
motest hamlet. The discredit or depression
In financial centers of any form or monej
In the hands of thu pt'oplr Is the signal of
Immediate lost everywhere. If reckless dis
content and wild experiments should sweei
our currency from Its safe support the
most defenceless of nil who suffer In the
time \ of distress and national discredit
would be the poor , as they reckon their
loss 1 In tholr scanty support , and the laborei
and worklngmnn , nt he sees the money In

In I his hand when 'he tenders It for the.
necessaries to supply his humble home
1i Disguise It ns we may , the line of buttlt
Is i drawn between the forc-s of safe cur
renoy i nnd those of silver monometallism
I will not believe that If our people are
afforded an Intelligent opportunity for sober
second thought they will sanction schemes
that , however cloaked , mean disaster un <
confusion , nor that they wfll consent b >
undermining the foundation of a safe cur
rency to endanger the beneficent character
and purposes of their government. Yours

About seventy-five uniformed members of

church last evening. To tliem , grouped In

sen , In the uniform of a Sir Knight , dellvereJ
Ms sermon. In front of the pulpit hung the
sign of the order , a red cross , of geranium
blossoms bordered with stnllax. All about the
altar were scattered lilies nnd ferns. The
particular adornment , however , wns u repre-
sentatlnn J , of a marble cross , entwined with
rcen creepers and with lilies 'nanglng from
the arms. The cross was raised from the
leer and at the head of the flight of steps
that led up to It was seated a miniature
winged angel In white. A background cf
jhick furnished a proper contrast.
The singing of the choir was very good and
ihe offertory solo by Miss Jessie 55eller was a
eature of the program. Ur. Baetens rendered
several selections on the violin , a particular
one being a double number , a melody In F , by
Rtibensteln , and "Spring Song" by Mendels

Dr. Sanderson urged his companions to
strive to he noble men. and not simply human
creatures. The world was full of the latter ,
but stood In need of the former.

of "assault with Intent to do great
bodily harm" In connection with the killing
of William Fielder nt Cheyenne agency on
March 8 , 1SD3 , has not ended. To secure the
release of the prisoners Judge Burns of
Spearllsh. attorney for the two Indians , Is
now In Sioux Falls , and has scoured a writ
of habeas corpus from Judge Kdgerton , com
manding Warden Phillips of tlie state peni
tentiary to bring the red men before him at
10 o'clock tomorrow , at which time the
legality of their confinement will be deter
mined. Judge Burns Is proceeding upon the
theory that the United Stales statutes rec
ognize no such offense as that of which
thu Indians were found guilty , and , furl her ,
that as the United States court had no
common law jurisdiction , there exists no
power In the court lo sentence the Indians
to prison. There are also other irregulari

WASHINGTON , April II. The determina
tion of the appellants In the Income tax casfs
to secure a rehearing before the full bench
of the United States supreme court on the
ofPC
points on which the court divided has causeJ
a renewal of Interest In the question of
Justice Jackson's health and the possibility
of his return to the bench at an early day.
Lite advices from Judge Jackson's home , nt
Nashville , are that he Is constantly Improv
ing , and , that , barring a very annoying
cough , his physical condition Is fairly
U Is also stated from the same source that
he expects to be abl ? to resume his duties
as a member of the court at the beginning
of th ? October term. There remains only a
little more than a month of the present
term , and It Is not suggested that ho may
return for this brief period. In view of this
fact , there can bo no possibility of another
argument In the cass before next fall or
winter.
This Is equally true If Justice Jackson
should decide to retire permanently from the
bench , which It la understood he has no
thought of doing. In that contingency , how
ever , the bench could not bo filled before
the assembling of congress. No Instance
Is known where a man nominated for the
supreme bench has taken hla scat before
ho was confirmed by the senate. Congress
will not convene until next December , and
under no circumstances would the senate bo
likely to pass upon a nomination of this
magnitude , until the Christmas holidays.
f Action might. Indeed , be postponed much
longer , and It possibly would be If the pre-
dcllctlons of the nominee should be cpposed
to the Income tax , ns the senate Is com
mitted to the law. It Is also suggested that
a justice who had not participated In the
first hearing might feel a delicacy In sitting
when the case was under consideration the
second time. It Is quite possible tint the
petition for a rehearing may not bo granted.
The court's rule of procedure In such cases
Is only to grant such petitions upon the re
quest of a mcnibsr of the court who has
voted In opposition to the wishes of the pe
titioner.
Senator Chandler of New Hampshire was
asked today for his opinion as to the suggestion -
gestion of Assistant Attorney General Whit
ney , that the
constitution might bo so
amended as to provide for the Imposition of
direct taxes , and replied : "To amend the
constitution It Is necessary to secure 4 two-
thirds vote of congress , and then to have
th ? amendment ratified by.the state legis
latures. I think It would be Impracticable to
do It. There never have been any amend
ments of the constitution except of a nega
tive character ; none- providing for modes of
government.
Furthermore , I do not think an amendment
of the constitution Is needed to tecuro a valid
Income tax law. It can bs had by apportion
ing the tax among the states In proportion
to population , and I am Inclined to think
that since the decision of the supreme court
them will be an effort In that direction at
the next session.
