ARGUMENTS FOR REHEARING TO BE HEARD May tt Set Apart for Consideration of the 1'ctltlon Justlca Jnckxou Impeded to Ho on Hie llencli bj tlmt Thuo. WASHINGTON , Apr1. ! 13. The United States supreme court today , through Chief Justice Fuller , mad ? the following order In regard to the petitions for a rehearing of the Income tax question : "Tho consideration of the two petitions for rehearing U reserved until Monday , May C , when a full bench Is expected and In that event two counsel on a tide will be heard at that time. " Although the order dots not explicitly so state , It means thai arguments will b * heard , not on the merits of the Income tax Itself , but on the question whether or not there shall be a rehearing of the suits heretofore decided. This argument , It Is expected , will Include the extent to which the rehearing shall go. that Is , whether ! t shall be confined merely to the point ou which the court was evenly divided , the constitutionality of the Income tax law ns a whole , or whether the whole question shall bo reopened nud new arguments made on the question of whether cr not rents are exempt from taxation , against which feature of the law there was a clear majority of the court. The announcement by the court Is further corroboratlon of reports by the court on the health of Justice Jackson , as It was made only after assurances that unless his case took a turn lor the worse he would ba able to return to his sat on the bench by the date named In the order. The course adopted by the court Is a most unusual ono and gentlemen familiar with Its procedure for muny years can recollect but one Instance In which a like action has been taken and that was In the ' 70'a. Nu authori tative statement could be secured of the rea sons for the order , but the theory Is advanced that tli ? court le again evenly divided and that Judge Jackson has been virtually made muplie of the question of reopnlng the cases. NASHVILLE , April 23. Justice Jackson of the United States supreme court Is at his home near this city. The house IB six miles from town. There Is no telephone to his house. The course adopted by the court Is a most unusual one , and gentlemen familiar with Its procedure for many years can recollect but ono Instance In which a like action has been taken , and that was In the 70s. JUSTICE JACKSON WILL ATTEND. It Is understood the decision of the court to permit an oral argument on the motion for a rehearing in these cases was not nr- rlved at until today , and that this action was based on information received by the chief justice direct from Justice Jackson indicat ing the probability of his being able to at tend the sitting of the court early In May. After adjournment of the court today Chief Justice Fuller said he had received such In formation from Justice Jackson as to lead the court to expect his presence In Washing ton and to count upon his attendance upon the court by the day set for the argument of tlio petition. It Is understood the decision of the court to depart from Its almost unbroken custom of deciding upon the advisability of rehearlngs without inviting further suggestion froni counsel than Is contained In brief written statements Is due to the appreciation which the members have of the vast Importance of the Income tax cases and to their desire to have It understood by the public that they are not disposed to place any obstacle In the way of the fullest possible presentation of the case. The usual practice with regard to petitions for rchearlngs Is to grant them upon the mo Uon of one of the members of the court who has concurred In the decision already made- , but It would appear from the course taken In tlio present Instance of submitting even this preliminary matter to the full bench that uono of tlio justices felt disposed to make such a motion , and that the arrangement now announced waH lilt upon as a compromise. Justice Jackson therefore will virtually come Into the case as an umpire. In the mean time the original decision will ba allowed to stand as the law , and It Is understood the full text of the chief justice's opinion wll soon bo given to the public. Ordinarily the court would take a recess from May C for two weeks and then adjourn until next Octo ber , but it Is within Its discretion to continue the present term indefinitely , and It is nol Impossible It may extend the term In the event of a rehearing being decided upon , am ! erpcclally If it should appear upon Justice Jackson's arrival that his health Is suffi ciently robust to permit him to take on him self tlie responsibility of sitting through an argument on the merits of the case anil the extra work of assisting In the preparation ol a decision. TIlEASUnY OFFICIALS PLEASED. The news of the action of the court was received at the Treasury department with much satisfaction , especially as It was an nounced that Justice Jackfon would be present and take part In the determination of the question. Without any positive knowl edge on the subject It seems to be the gen eral belief that Justice Jackson Is predisposed in fjvor of the constitutionality of the law and hence would be very likely to vote for a rehearing , thus making a clear majority In favor of granting the petition. A rehear ing Is earnestly desired by the income tax oflicials , as- with a full bench there neces sarily will bo a full majority either for or against the law , which wouli certnlnly have the effect of dolnj , away with the vast amount of lltlga tlon now promised. As to the chances o the court's deciding adversely to the law , the oinclals feel little uneasiness. They argue that the direct tax question which ; omc members of the court regarded as deeply in volved , was hardly touched upon in the ar gument of the case on behalf of the govern mrnt , its counsel assuming that the cour could hardly deslro a discussion of a subjec. which they thought by reason of a long lint of decisions bad ceased to ba an open ques tlon , Senator Lindsay of Kentucky , speak Ing on this matter today , said : "If th federal government has not the power t raise revenues by taxing Incomes arising fron rents of real estate in time of peace , nelthe has it the power In time of war. If thi power does not exist It should be suppllei by constitutional amendment. The civil wa established the right of the federal govern ment to operate upon Individuals In the en forcement of federal authority. The govern ment should have like power In the tnxatlo of all Incomes.1' UltlTISII IVAllSIIirM IN NICA1IAGUA HUH Not Yet Developed , lu t Whnt Court They Will 1'nriiin. WASHINGTON. April 23. The Nicaragua minister here has received a cablegram froi his government announcing the arrival a Corlnto of two British warships with the ex press purpose of enforcing the demands con talned In the Ilrltlsh ultimatum. Just ho\ this Is to be done the minister was not In formed. The indications now are Nlcaragu will offer a passive resistance to the Drills demands for some time , at least , and mean while the United States will do nothing bu await the developments of events , unless the Urltlsh take some action that affects our purely selfish interests , such as Interfering with our shipping or the Interests of Amer ican citizens. This attitude is assumed In the full confidence that no attempt will be made by the Ilrltlsh to secure any Nlcaraguan ter ritory , no matter what course she may fos obliged to pursue to accomplish her purpose of collecting the "smart money" demanded for the expulsion of Vice Consul Hatch. There Is reason to believe not only the Nlcaraguan affair , but the whole subject of the extent of the protection to be demanded by the United States to the sister republics of Central and South America , has been very earnestly and deliberately discussed by the president with his full cabinet , and that the attitude as as- armed In the rase of Nicaragua may betaken taken as an Indication cf the line of policy to be adopted for the treatment of all ques tions arUtng between the European powers and those republics having such a basis as at present.

Japan's right o frame her own tariff rates on United States goods has now accrued under the errns ot the new Japanese treaty with the United States , thirty days having expired since the exchange of ratifications. Minister Kurlno of Japan says , however , that while lie outline of a general tariff law has been considered In the Japanese Diet , he has not ret been Informed of the enactment of a law. Jnder these circumstances the Japanese rate on United States goods will remain at G per cent ad valorem until the new act Is lassed. From other official sources It is learned that a new tariff law Is not likely to be passed until Japan has concluded all her new treaties with European powers. It Is stated that the now tariff will not be In the line ot a high protective policy , but will be n revenue tariff. While Japan has nnny Infant industries , It Is said that they are making phenomenal advancement. When the new tariff Is framed it Is un derstood that Us moat Important features re ferring to the United States are likely to be as follows : "Kerosene oil. which la now the largest Item of United States export to Japan , will probably remain at 5 per cent ad valorem. Flour , breadstuffs , canned goods and other domestic necessities will either remain at 5 per cent or be scaled down , as the Japanese policy Is to cheapen the necessar ies of life. Haw cotton , which Is the third Item of export , being sent In great quantities from the southern states to Japan , Is likely to go on the free list. Japan is anxious to get raw material for her flourishing cot ton factories , which are turning out n product which competes , It Is claimed , with the best cottons of the world. It Is said , also , that the freight rates to Japan are another factor which protects her Industries. " 1'JIOM INTii.NAI , IIKVKMJK. Income Tux Muilo a Slight Addition to the Incren Over run .Month.

WASHINGTON , April 23. ( Special Tele gram. } Up to the present time no appoint ment has been made by tlio president to nil the vacancy caused by tlio retirement of Major General A. McD. McCook on Monday last. It seems certain that llrlgadler General Wesley Merrltt will be chosen for the position and that one ot the vacancies In the grade of brigadier general will be filled by the appointment ot Colonel Zcnas K. Hllss of the Twenty-fourth Infantry. The appointment of a major general Is expected to be announced tomorrow. If Colonel Ullss docs not get the appointment as brigadier general one of the other colonels will and not an ofilcer of a lower grade. One of the officers who Is making a .strong fight for the appointment Is Colonel Guy V. Henry , Fifth cavalry. One rumor was started that Colonel John M. Wilson of the engineer corps will receive the appointment. Colonel Wilson Is In charge of the public buildings and grounds of the District of Columbia and while acting in that capacity has been connected with the white house , where a frendshlp with the president has resulted. For these reasons It Is urged that Colonel Wilson will be appointed. Hut this Is not likely by reason of the fact that General Casey , chief of engineers , will retire next month and President Cleveland Is said to be desirous of making Colonel Wilson chief of the Engineer Corps. It Is safe to say that Colonel Wilson Is a warm frcnd of the president and hence occupies ground which he could use to good advantage wcro he now disposed to make a strong fight for appoint ment to the grade ot brigadier general. Colonel T. M. Anderson of the Fourteenth In fantry , stationed at , Vancouver barracks , is. said to be making a strong effort to secure the appointment. Colonel 1) . C. Gordon , Sixth cavalry , stationed at Fort Myer , Va. , Is also a prominent candidate. LITTLE PUOHAUIL1TY OF SHIFTS. It Is stated today that although there Is a strong desire on the part of Secretary La- mr.nt as well as a number of prominent of ficials of the War department that a change shall occur this spring In the stations of the troops at the western posts , such an event cannot occur on account of a lack of funds to pay for the transportation. These changes always Involve a large outlay of money , ami the appropriation for the present fiscal year Is not large enough for the expenditure. The cause for this shortness Is that nearly all of this fiscal year's appropriation was spent last summer in transporting troops to and from Chicago at the time ot the Pullman strike. It therefore beems that a change tea a largo extent will be Impossible. None of the appropriations _ for the year ending in IS'JG can now be used. ' since those sums will not become available until the first of next July. A large number qf army officers here will bo somewhat disappointed If this con templated change shall have to be abandoned , because they bellevq 'tliut the best Interests will be served If periodical transfers can be brought about , whereby the various regiments on the frontier can be ordered to easier posts of duty In the cast , and vice versa. Inspector General , of the Army Breckln- ridge today said to The Dee correspondent : "This question of whether or not constant changes should bo .malic in the stations of the troops Is a very Important one. There are arguments on both sides , however. Of course the main' ' idea In tlio administration of the affairs of the. nnny Is to inako our army a national affair. . Wo want to have the individual private citizen of the United States respect It , be attached to It and have sympathy for It. This da one argument in faycr of allowing troops to remain at one station for a length''of time , because in a short time the residents of cities contiguous to n post or fort become familiar' with the cglments and their doings and soon get to enow the soldiers and therefore get Inter ested In them. And yet ono of the most mportaiit points Is to get Into our army .horough soldiers. Men who have hail ex perience and have met the trials of work In ho west and on the frontier , as well as these who have had experience In the easy ways of stations near large cities in the east. Wo want to have our regiments go out Into ho field and get their share of the service , and In doing this they will get 'training which will bo of Inestimable value in case of Insurrection or In time of war. It Is hercfore expedient that changes should occur as often as reasonable. This Is a problem which should be considered with seriousness and should not be decided hastily , do not think a change will be effected this spring because there is no noney available to provide for transporta tlon. " FHOM THE TWELFTH TO THE TENTH. The enlisted men of company I ( Indians ) , Twelfth Infantry , now at Fort Sill , Old. , are ransforrcd to and will be designated as company I , Tenth Infantry , to take effect May , 1 , 1895 , when the commissioned officer and the two non-commissioned officers of the Twelfth Infantry , now on duty with that company , will be sent by the commanding general. Department of the Missouri , to join .heir regiment in the Department of the i'latto. The commanding officer of the Tentli nfantry will designate a suitable olllcer tc command company I , subject to the approval of the department commander. A number of states have applied to the War department for details of regular armj iroops to accompany their Individual Na tional Guards while off on their summer camping trips. The policy of tlio depart ment is to grant such requests , and an order lias just been Issued detailing the Third in fantry to act as escort to the mllltla of WIs. consln and Minnesota upon the occasion ol their annual spring camp.

The Navy department partment has received no Information of no tual results of the ' ( leaf1 trial of the Min neapolis at Colon , "rtiere seems to ha a misunderstanding conVc nlng the trial. It was a forty-eight-hour .trial and was to de termine whether there were any defects In the vessel or anything ; necesiary to be done by the contractors to" " make the ship comply with specifications. If'a'by ' defects are found the contractors will , | la\'e , to make the neces sary changes and repairs or have the cost ' ' of making them ttk'e'n .from the final payment - ment to be made after 'the report of the trial board has been received and approved by the Navy department. It will be several weeks before this final report can be made. The trial Is not for speed , but to test the vessel In every possible way. It has been unusual to have the trial on a foreign station , but It was necessary that it should be made before the five months allowed the govern ment to make the trial expired , and the Minneapolis would not have time to return to the United States. There will be no bonus to the premium under 'this ' trial. The speed trial previously made fixed the premium. KHIIIIII A1i.li Uut * lin Appointment , WASHINGTON , April 23. R. U.

A von Haake. topographer of the Postofflce department , is liard at work on the new star route maps to lie issued In July. These maps are carefully revised every three months , but by far the ; reater work Is Involved in the July Issue , on account of the fact that It marks the be ginning of a new fiscal year and the renewal of contracts for carrying the malls. A largo lumber ot routes are also arranged for the summer only , for the benefit of seaside water- ng places , that are populated only at that season. The compilation and printing of these maps require an immense amount of work. Five separate drawings of the same map must be made , one showing the rivers and coast lines , one for the railways and one each for routes that are run six times , thrice and once a week. Separate lithographic tones are made Of each and the maps printed from them In five different colors.
