HUXLEY'S !NCOME. I QUESTION OF INCOME TAXI LIABILITY. lu the Couj't of Appeal before the Ma-ster of the RoiLs aad Lords Justices PhiHimore and Waa-ringtoon, the question whethar Wm. Hwdey, an "infatnt," the weil'kn-owu jockey, who e&rng &bout j62,OTO a ye&r, could be assessed for income tax wa,s considered, whm their lordships heard the a.ppeai of the ew. market Income Tax Commissioners from a judgment of a King's Bench Divi;,ionil Cot:.l't consisting of Justices Ridley, and Low making ab'lOlute a ruie mei which Huxk-y had obta.ined to prohibit the com- from proceeding on die as".e.s.s. Jnijat to income t&x. The Divisional Court had held that it was impossible to hold that a.u infa-nt in law could be treated as an &dult for the purpos? of a.SOO9sment to income tax when be had no gita.rdia.n or trustee, as it was nowh&i'e stated in the Act by inference or imptica.tion that a.n Mitant in such circumstances was to be aases&ect. The Attorney-Genera! (for the Iniand Revenue) said th<) p<jint for decision, whethai' &B infant, cou!J be directly assessed undfr the Income T<m Acts. Strangely enough; the <tuestion had ncvfr been bdore the Court. The a.ppea.l raised the short point whether an infant who earned sub- stea-t" emoluments, and who h&d th, ca-pae'ity to mak e n large income, and who had no trustee or guardian, comd be p€i' eanaUy made chargeable to income tax. The point wa« whether Huxley, being an infant, and having no guardian and trusts, could be assessed. Couruel submitted tiia.t upon the construction of the sections of the vajfious Income Tax Acts Huxley was a.7-sew,- able to income tax. Mr. Latter (for Huxiey) supported the &ndmg of the Divisional Court, eontendiag that under Section 41 of the Income Tax Act of 1842 HuxLey was not chargea ble to income tax on his property, and could not be hseeased. The Oom't reserved judgement.
