Another “Guess“?
The annual report of the Commission-
er of Internal Revenue, which has just
been made public, is a highly unique
document. That official admits that
the receipts from internal revenue taxes,
for the fiscal year ending with June 30
last were only $143,246,000, about $28,«
000,000 less than had been estimated,
but he asserts that this was due to the
failure of the Supreme Court to sustain
the constitutionality of the Income tax.
This, of course, is preposterous. The
Income tax was not made payable until
July 1, and it would have been absurd
to assume that any material portion of
it would be paid before that date.
Nevertheless, the Commissioner of
Internal Revenue proceeds to predict
that the receipts from internal revenue
taxes for the current fiscal year will
reach at least $165,000,000- This is
nearly as much as these taxes were ex-
pected to yield last year, when, as the
Internal Revenue Commissioner now
avers, the expected receipts from the-
income tax were included in the esti-
mate. Nothing demonstrate
more conclusively the utter untrust-
could
worthiness of the prediction in question
then this statement. The estimate of
an increase of nearly $25,000,000 in in-
ternal revenue receipts is manifestly
pure guesswurk. It is clearly of a piece
with the prediction of Secretary Carlisle
that the Treasury deficit at the close of
the last fiscal year would not exceed
$20,000,000. It was over-twice as great.

‘ Conditions of Our Prosperity.
It is safe to say that the most emin-
ent economist now living, whose knowl-
edge and judgement on financial topics,
free from mere theoretical preconcep-
tions, command respect throughout the
I world, is M. Leroy—Beaulieu, and the
editor of the Forum has done a public
service in obtaining from him the clear
analysis of the present financial situa-
tion which appears in the December
number of that magazine under the title
of “Conditions for American Commer-
cial and Financial Supremacy.”
There can be no suspicion of ulterior.
motives or of “British gold,” when M.‘
Leroy-Beaulieu expresses the surprise
felt throughout Europe that a great-Na-
tion like the United States should al-
low its development to be trummeled
by frequent and severe crises and that
it should be “either unable to discern
their causes, or lack decision to remove
them from its path.” Our great and
Vital error, he says, the evil influences
of which are still felt, was the failure of
our government to redeem its paper
currency after the war, and the first es-
sential to security now and prosperity
hereafter is that the government shall
cease to issue paper money at all, remit-
ting that task to the banks.
The United States, this distinguished
Frenchman believes, from ”their geo-
graphical position and resources, can
aSpire to take from England, within
the next century, her commercial and
financial supremacy ; but to attain this
end the dollar must be given the quali-
ties of the pound sterling. “There
must be no sort of doubt that it is a
gold dollar.” After warning Ameri-
cans not to be duped by expressions
from European politicians of apparent
sympathy with bimetalism, which is of
M. Le-
necessity bound to collapse.
roy-Beaulieu concludesz/
The abandonment of notes or paper
money issued by the State; the definite
adoption of gold as the sole standard—
tthe are lllU two necessary conditions
on which the United States can secure
a financial position as important as that
they now hold in agriculture and indus
try. On theSe two conditions they can
some day approach and equal Great
Britain as a financial power. If, on the
contrary, they persist in their system
of government paper money, and in the
“rehabilitation” of silver, their indus- ‘
trial and commercial development will
be trammeled, and they, will undergo
marked and permanent experiences of
financial weakness. .
This is the advice ofan entirely com--i
l
potent and friendly observer. It
accords exactly with what ”our own sa-
fest leaders have been telling us. But
will Congress have the wisdom to act
on this advice? Or can we rise sulfi-
ciently above the Ic-westparty interests
to demand that Congress shall do so?
If not, we must accept the consequen-

A FattedCalf'. ‘
On Friday, November 29th, the musi-
cal comedy “A Fatted Calf” by the
well known author, Wm. Gill, will be
presented at the Norwalk Opera House.
It is claimed to be by far the most
amusing comedy that has been pro-
dueed in years, without resorting to
vulgarity, coarse horse play, or variety
acts to make it a success. The com-
pany presenting it is carefully selected
by Mr. Eugene Robinson under whose
personal direction “A Fatted Call” is
produced. It has met with praise
wherever it has been played.

Cars on the Street Railway Line.
New Run Through {to the Con-
solldatecl Railroad Sta—
tion.
_-
The General Public'HaDDy.
You can now ride over the Street
Railway line to a point in close proxim-
ity to the Consolidated railroad station
at South Norwalk.
As stated in these columns yesterday
Colonel Russell Frost representing the
heirs of the Dudley P. Ely estate, serv-
ed an injunction on Saturday last, re-
straining the Norwalk Street Railway
line from putting down rails or runningi
cars on the street abutting the Ely
property without apublic hearing being
given on a proposed change in the lay-
out of the tracks.
After the injunction had been served,
the Street Railway company succeeded
in having it modified to the extent that
they were permitted to go ahead with
the laying of the tracks but were not al‘
lowed to run any cars over the line.
The company lost no time in laying
the tracks and otherwise equipping the
road ready for immediate service.
A motion on the part of the Street
Railway company to have the inj unc-
tion dissolved was heard yesterday af-
ternoon before Judge Curtis.
Both parties were ably represented,
and the testimony and arguments in
the case did not reach a conclusion un-
til aftcr 7 o’clock.
At about 7:30 o’clock the Judge an-
nouccd that the injunction was dis-
solved and the fact was quickly tele-
graphed to the Street Railway compa-
ny’s office in this city.
As if in anticipation of such decision,
car No. 3 had been bedecked with a
number of incandescent lights, and at
8:30 it was run out of the. CA]: house,
Motorman Mat-heis playing "Blue Bells
of Scotland” on the alarui gong, and
General Manager ACLO", playing an ac-
companyment with the fare register
bar. ‘
The car was freighted with ‘brawn
and brains, and made a dazzling
meteoric trip down the avenue. Reach-
ing the point in dispute, the motorman
politely reduced the speed of the car
and it slowly moved around the corner.
Nearing the post office, another volt
or two was added, and the car bowled
down through Railroad Place, as if in
the habit of doing it every day in the
year. ,
People lined the sidewalk to watch
the return trip, and the car as it sped
past, was greeted with as many cheers
as would have been given a Fourth of
July orator, when men now aged 75
years were young. ‘
It is now an assured fact that you can
board a Street Railway car at Winni-
pauk and ride to the Consolidated rail-
road depot for five cents.
The new schedule which went into
effect this morning, provides for the
running of the cars under 9, 7 and 6
minute headway, 'god it goes without
the saying that the management is de-
termined to do all in its power, for the
comfort and convenience of its patrons.
Whether or no, you can even now
' get up from the street car to the rail
road depot, without wearing hip-boots
to keep your legs and feet dry, is a
question largely in the keeping of the
clerk of the weather.

Chief Vollmerm Officers De-

Gangfl’ ' ~
Five Penitent Prisoners Appear Be—
fore Judge Frost This Morning.
Chief Vollmer, of South Norwalk, and
his officers, made a raid upon the
“Growler Gang” yesterday afternoon,
and succeeded in capturing five.
The scene of the raid was in Tolles’
lumber yard where the gay and festive
company hadtgatheredabout a. tomato
can filled with amber fluid, like flies on
a dead horse. ‘
The police swooped down upon the
gang like a hawk upon its prey, and the
catch would have been larger had not
Detective Gladstone, who is a strong
partisan, insisted upon telling Billy
Penningtontihat the scene reminded
him‘of one of Cleveland’s cabinet meet-
ings.
At the sound of "Glad’s" falsetto
Voice there was a sneaking about the
lumber piles, a dodging behind some
friendly ash barrel, as the stooping,
shrinking figures of the gang attempted:
to escape. There was ii. hunted look in
their eyes as they panted with fear. ~ .
A noise as if pursuers were on their
track fell upon their ears. ‘
They crouched behind a huge pile of
lumber and each bar-ed his head and
Wiped the cold [inspiration from
his brow. The falling rain pierced
them to the very marrow. Shivering
fro mhead to foot, their teeth chatter-
ing', and their eyes rolling wildly in
their sockets as: they cautiously peerr
ed out.
“We are safe thus far” said One of
the gang in a trembling whisper, but
here is where he was mistaken, for the
towering form of Chief Vollmer follow-
ed by his men, appeared before their
astonished eyes and gathered them in,
can and all, and marched them to the
police station and locked them up.
This morning they were brought be-
fore Judge Frost and gave their names
as Thomas Lent, Joseph Tocix, Andrew
Anderson, Robert Welsh and Thomas
Monroe.
The charge of drunkenness and
breach of the peace was read to them
by Clerk Ferris, who could not restrain
a moisture about the eyelids as he look-
ed at their penitent, scared faces.
After hearing the evidence Judge
Frost, who always tempers justice with
mercy, presented each of them with a
Thanksgiving turkey to the amount of
five large silver plunkets, which all paid
except Lent, the latter’s bank account
having been overdrawn in the last
filling of the can. He will probably.
dine with “Sid” Hawley on Thanksgiv-
ing and mourn the absence of “the rest
