The fact seems to have le on eretty clearly established that some forni of punishment Inflicted at the Iterate\ t iery IS unnecessarily harsh. The Investigation also brought out the fact that the favorite form of torture at the state penitentiary con - slated of placing the convict in the dark cellar with his hands litindcuffed anti drawn up toward the back of his neck, with a rope first passed around his neck in such a manner that every effort made by the man undergoing the punishment to lower his hands from the painful elevation drew the rope so tightly be- hind his neek that suffocation would ensue. \The committee then recommended that this form of punishment be dis- pensed with. This recommendation seems to have been neglected to some extent, but a new mode of 'lure has been brought into prOmIneoe. The convicts are handcuffed t,.

TO DECIDE THE INCOME TAX CASE ',octet Opinion that tho constitution dirty of the Lao Bill Be Infield. Washington, March 24. -The sessions of the United States supreme court will terminate Monday. but as it y is the day of the Week on WiliCh 1,11111. usually hands down decisions, there are borne who think a decision may be given then on the income tax case. It Is under- stood that the members of the court bey* beta ta conetaitation Concerning the case, tetel while et mould be inomt tlh,cd_tel fel - them to COM, to a conclu- sion In so important a matter SO soull after the conclusion of the argument, it is concluded that the exigencies of the government are such that a special ef- fort will be made in the present in- stance. It is conceded by those who ad- vance the idea that It would be too much to expect that an opinion giving the reasons for the decision cruld be presented on Monday, but It is nought possible that the court might announce its decision as to the constitutiouality of the law then, and reserve the prepar- ation ef the dm:felon for a time of great- er leisure. This course is occasionally pursued toward tie end of a term, but it is not believed to be at all probable that it will be followed In the incomt tax caae. There still remains, utter Monday, three weeks before the law gointo effect, and His argued that the decision will be p.tstponed until the 8th of Amrli with -,ti' putting the gov- ernment to especial II104/r,,, t.t,tice.

The 81 who met their death the same day were laid to rest today with the most impressive ceremonies. There were 32 buried from the Mormon church alone, where the Berl/tree a - ere conducted by Bishop Bowers of Almy, assisted by Bishop Brown of Evanston and eminent dignataries of the Mormon church from Salt Lake, including Franklin D. Rich- ards, church historian, John Henry Smith, one of the 12 apostles, and Sey- mour B. Young and Edward Stephen- son, two of the seven presidents of the Seventies. Bishop Cluff of Coalville, president of the Sunimit county church, also assisted. The choir of the church was composed of 24 members, led by Professor James H, Hood, who conduct- ed the singing. The chureh Is the larg- est in Uintah county, but was insuffi- cient to accommodate one-third of the people who attended. It was attempted to take the coffined bodies of the dead into the church, but after 13 had been eat i led In it was found that all of them would occupy so much space that there would not be enough room to seat the mourners, and the bodies were moved out again and ar- ranged In rows at the side of the church. Such a scene has rarely been witnessed anywhere, and it required the utmost efforts of Bishop Cluff and Apostle Smith to hush, by words of cotnfort and consolation, the sobs of the widows, mothers and children, so that the exer- cises might proceed. All these were buried at the Mormon cemetery at Red Canon, The Finns, too, were buried from their own chapel in their own burying ground. The Rev, Brook Hutchings of the Evanston Presbytertan church, con- ducted the services at No. 4 schoolhouse. Al my, The Rev. Leppert conducted services for those of the Methodist faith, the lieV, Father Fitzgerald of the Evenstort Catholic church, for those of his faith, while the Rev. E. E. flegge, of the EV11.11- stnn Alethodiet church. preached the funeral sermon at the opera house over the remain?. of 0. Maltby, who was bur- led with Manortic'honors by Albert Pike Commandery N... I, of Evanston. Pied Morgan was buried by the A. 0. U. W., of which order bean,! Mr. Malt- by were members, carrying 32,000 Insur- ance, the only two insured out of the whole 61. The Ancient Order of Foresters bur- led under their auspice, five persons at this place at 4 (*Hock. Memorial Service\ were held at Si, Paul's Episcopal church by the Rev. Mr. Duffy, the re6tor. The offertory was for the benefit of the bereaved. Contributions are coming in freely, and it is hoped that none of the more than 300 almost destitute people now without means of support will be per- mitted to suffer for the necessaries of life.

Admitting that Mr. 'lii,',,,; did as is allegyd, his friends as - !hat he did not exceed his diplomatic do, les in the slightest respect in making public the sentences imposed on several of the Hawaiian conspirators by the me- itery court. The proeeedinge of . the court were cOnducted openly and the sentences of the prisoners had been published In Hawaii and all the facts reached the American people by steamer. Mr. Thurs- ton's friends say he never betrayed an official communication or abused official confidence In the correspondence between his government and himself and the gev• ernment of the United States or any of Its representatives. It is admitted that it would have been a manifest impropriety for him to have divulged any Information from the secre- tary of state touching the relations be- tween Hawell and the United States.

Chicago is to be the national political Center next year and sliver will be the dominant tattoo for the presidential campaign Tide statement was made by a man who be recognized as a lead- ing factor of the silver proptteatida and it was conceded by a number of con- servative financial men to be the only logical concluelon which could be drawn from a series of recent events. A plan of campaign has been laid out which will bring the leaders of the ether prop- aganda from Denver to Chicago and al- ready the boast Is made that \silver will split the republican and demo- cratic parties and that the Allegheny mountains next year will be the great divide which separates the yellow At- lantic coast from the white Mississippi valley and Pacific coast.\ The plan contemplates an arbitrary demand on both national conventions, for It is said that the sliver ;nen of , both parties have artived at a perfect understanding In the matter; that a plank or free silver coinage at a ratio of 16 to 1, independent of other com- mercial nations. \must be placed in the platforms of the reepeetive patties\ According to the Re, .,1 ir . t. • , both conventions I t., it.1. to by aggressive e , • --\n. the elk!, delegates will wince and an inde- pendent silver part y' be formed with headquarters in (III .01.
