LAXCOliS, March 17. (facial Tel-gram.)
a-Actlng under the law enscted by the last
legislature, the supreme '. ourt today dis
charged six eommlsIoners and retained
these three: J. II. Ames of Lincoln. W. D.
Oldham of Kearney mij C. B. Letton of
Talrbury.
Those let out were Commissioners Al
berts, Qlanvllle. lluffle, Fawcett. Hastings
and Klrkpatrlck. The law requires that
alzj commissioners shall serve for one year
and three for two years;
t'pholit fcufnifr I -aw.
The supreme court sustained the constitu
tionality of what la known as the scavenger
ct, an act of the last legislature for the
collection of delinquent taxes on real es
tate. This act was supplemental to the
new revenue law and provided for the sale
of lands for what they will bring, less the
mount of the taxes due. The constitution
ality of this provision was questioned on
the grounds that It provided for a release
or commutation of taxes. A country as well
as an Individual may be a purchaser. The
promoters of the new law believe that It
would permit counties to clear up long
gtnndlng delinquent taxes.
The case passed upon Is entitled Joseph
"A". W'oodrough against the County of Doug
las. Following Is the syllabus of the opin
ion written by Judgs Karnes:
The sale of real estate for the payment
of delinquent taxes. ignler the provision of
chapter Ixxv or the lnws of 1WS, entitled
An act to enforce the payment and collec
tion of delinquent taxes and special assess
ment on real property," does not deprive
the owner of his property without due pro
cess of law.
Lands purchased by the county under the
firnvlslnns of this act are held in trust for
tself, tho state and all other political sub
divisions entitled to any portion of such de
linquent taxes. Such lands are not acquired
by the state by. escheat or forfeiture, and
do not belong to the permanent school fund.
The proceeding provided for by this act
Is a suit In equity In the district court, and
the owner of real estate In question therein
fins no constitutional ngni to a jury trial.
The sale of lands In such proceedings for
whst they will bring, though less than the
amount of the decree for the te.xes due
and delinquent Is not a release or commuta
tion of taxes within the meaning of section
4, article Ix, of the constitution.
The act Is not vulnerable to tne objection
that Its provisions are broader than Its
title; It Is complete In Itself, capable of
enforcement, and Is not open to tho objec
tion that It Is amendatory of other laws.
The In w provides for one of two methods
of collecting delinquent taxes on real estate
snd permits the county board to choose
which method It will pursue. This does not
amount to a delegation of legislative au
thority. The remedy provided for la de
clared by the act Itself to be cumulative,
and therefore It Is not In conflict with nor
does It take away any other remedy pro
vided by statute.
Held, that the act In question Is not In
eonflict with any other provision of the
constitution ma as to Invalidate It. and Is
a constitutional . exercise of legislative
power.
Victory for Father Marphr.
Father William Murphy of Seward won a
algnal victory over- Rt. Rev. Thomas Bona
cum, bishop of the . diocese of Lincoln, In

possessed Father Murphy of the ecrlesl-
a delegation to the s'ate convention op
posed to the silver plank.
Statistics of Cattle niaeaaes.
At the request of the state veterinarian,
the labor bureau has Included In Its
schedule for the collection of statistics
the number of cattle snd horses that have
died from the cornstalk disease. These
schedules have lust been sent out to the
various assevors and their attention Is
epfcla!ly called to this change from the
change In the schedule of last year. The
number of deaths among cattle because of
this disease has been so numerous1 thst
statistics are deetred. that just how seri
ous the disease la may be known.
Kalllvan Sot ssgilae.
Former Chief Justice Sullivan Is not tak
ing seriously his indorsement by the demo
cratic state committee as a candidate for
vice president. In discussing It he said
"I appreciate the good will shown by the
committee, but 1 nm afraid that I am
partially committed to John 1 Webster,
so It would 111 become me to get out and
flght for the place, as it Is not likely that
the two vice presidents would come from
the. name state.
The democrats, however, are not taking
the matter so lightly, and will Insist that
Mr. Bryan use his influence In securing the
nomination of Judge Sullivan, and claim
that would compensate litm for the loss
of the free silver plank should he lose It.
In the meantime It is the belief of the
reorganises that there will be no fusion
this year in national affairs and probably
not In state affairs. One of them said this
morning that Mr. Bryan's action In abso.
lutely refusing to listen to any reason ad
vanced by the reorganliers would prevent
any compromise and that the result would
be that the radical reorganise would be
In control of the notional convention and
that neither Mr. Bryan nor the populists
would get anything at all.

VICTIM ONLY SIXTEEN YEARS OF AGE
Marderer Was Thlrt-Tw Years Old
ad Employed on the Fnran
Where Mlsa Maxwell Made
Her Home.
NRRRA8K A CITT, Neb., March 17.
(Special Telegram.) A double tragedy oc
curred today near Nemaha, a small town
south of this city, that has no parallel In
the history of this section. David Carroll,
a farm hand, shot Miss Anna Maxwell and
then commuted suicide. Insane Jealousy
Is supposed to be tbe cause.
Miss Maxwell spent last night at a neigh
bor's and returned home this morning about
7 o'clock. She started to do the milking,
as was her usual custom, and when she
did not return within a reasonable time a
search was made for her, and her dead
body was found on a horse blanket near
the barn. Carroll had fired two shots, one
entering her left temple and the other the
right.
. Carroll's dead body was found near that
of his victim.
Miss Anna Maxwell was the adopted
daughter of John Maxwell, who was for
thirty years superintendent of the Nemaha
county poor farm, and since tha death of
Mr. Maxwell she has resided with his
widow. She was but 18 years old.
David Carroll waa about 25 years old and
originally came from an orphans' home in
Chicago. Miss Maxwell did not favor his
Insane passion for her and had recently
shown favor to a young man In the neigh
borhood. This fact is supposed to have
caused temporary Insanity and Is responsi
ble for the act of Carroll. The tragedy
was probably planned and consummated
when whetted to an Insane Jealous rage
during the Interview that they must have
had this morning. Carroll has never before
been considered deranged and has worked
on the Maxnaell farm for several years,
family ultimately led to the crime of today,
