Tax Case Oral Ancaaneat. Oral argument was heard by the Bu i preme Court this morning in the case or the State against the American. Adams and United States Express Companies to recover delinquent taxes assessed by the State Board of Tax Commissioners under the act of: 1893. The express companies were represented by ei Unite'd' States So Lcitor Geaeral Maxwell, of 'Cincinnati, and Edward Daniels, of this cfy. It was contended that as all (he tangible property of the express companies within the State Is taxed by the local taxing officers under the act of tStl, there Is no other property ii be taxed.

The act of assumes 'o tax each rn.il of the express companies' "troutes." This assumption, it was argued, was wrong for the reason that, a route of an" express complny is not property, and the assessment of 50 a m.le on routes was an assessment against imaginary property. Attorpey tieneral Ketcham and ex At torney Oeneral Smith, for the State, ar fcued that the property of an exprnij company is simalar or analogous to the property of a railroad or telegraph company; that It la constructively connected by the companies' with railroad com pan.es to carry. packages; 4s made a unit property, arid dec.Slons already rendered had declared the law valid, i Arsaatroas Fined.

The telephone In th Board of Public Works pfiice this morning save a brief staccato ring. It did not sound as though the ringer ms much in earneat. but John It. Rediington. the assistant clerk of the kwnivt lamnoJ ud to answer.

He saw j.moics? f'orn the telephone box, and lcoked around vainly for something; to it. Then a neat little fume as from a Christmas tree canye showed its head through hole In the top of the box. "The telephone's on fire." cried Red dington, running lcto the public orace of the board, but the board, busy in receiving a "kicX" at its table, did not look up. l. Xa tlM hnw.v.r frnri ou lnto tpe priv4te oRlce where the tele vhone lu Tne flame was gradually lakin(c on tne proportions of one from a campaign Crch.

"Pour water on itr cried Parker. Reddlngioo drew a glaaful from the water cooler and poured the" Icy liquid on the Ted flame. Ice water was evidently just what the flame wanted, for immedi ately it turned blue and be run spouting and splttimr Into the air like an electric fountain. There was an internal rumble and crackling as though the telephone was about to explode. The clerks had not known that It was loaded, and they started back in despair.

i which increased when a line of flame telephone ne managed to let It be known that there was a new fangled kind of water, drinking fire In the court house basement. Blue smoke and a strong smell began to roll through the rooms and halls. Both went up through the registers of the Circuit room, and the judge and lawyers there wondered what it was all: about, when they saw a chemical engine and a laudtr truck daxhlng up in the street below. People from all parts of the courthouse came down to see what was the matter, but the Board of Public Works eat calmly in the ml 1st of the blue smoke, as though used to It, and continued to listen to the "kick." When Fire Chief Webster arrived with the firemen. Beddlngton had already succeeded In putting the flre out with his Ice water.

The telephone wire, which had grown white hot, had at last meltiHl. breaking the circuit and making the flames amenable to water. Some men had been re stringing wires at Washington and Delaware streets, and the telephone wire connecting with the Board of Public Works ofllce had apparently been let to sag down and touch the street car trolley wires. When It was all over, the board came In and looked at the black places scorched all over the smith wall, and remarked that there apparently had been some excitement. i n.

Robbers In Irvlnirton. A short man, weartn? a slouch hat and sometimes accompanied by a woman, has been visiting houses in Irvlngton purporting to examine them, with a iew to renting or buying.4 He visited the house of C. Gorsuchrlast night, but not at conventional hours. It was 4 o'clock this morning. Mrs.

Gorsuch saw him standing at the aide of her hunband's becL lie had entered the room noiselessly. He departed rap. dly. when she spoke, and made his way out through a Window, wiilch he had raised and propped open. Prowlars were seen at other Irvinpion houses, and the community is concerned over its unwelcome vist.ors.

IK THE SUBURBS. Last Sunday was the birthday anniversary of Mrs. Charles Silvey, Broad Kipple. and about sixty of her fr.ends surpr.sert" her, and going with well lilled baskets ate dinner with her and ctowded her rooms during enjoyable hours. A drunken man created some excitement in West Indianapolis about 6 o'clock Iast night.

He was bare headed. In a buggy nauied oy a pony, wnicn ne pi on the gallop. He ran over the cement sidewalk olten, and several women and children had narrow escapes. Once he tumbled from the buggy, and the fall knocked a grunt from hinv that was heard a block away. He got In the buggy again and started out with renewed war whoops.

Chief of Police Buchanan followed hinv afoot and patrolman Stodard gave chase Jn a street car. Thj fellow got away. The home of 8. E. Collins.
