CUTS DOWN ASSESSMENTS Board of Beview Makes Net Reduotion of Four Tbouand Dollars. FORTY THOUSAND MORE OFF CITY ROLL Final Action Causes t'oaalernlle Frletloa aad Charges of Bad Faith Bet wee a Members of tha City Coancll. A tabulation of tha assessments aa In creased and reduced by the city council, acting as a Board of Review, shows a total decrease of $44,000 from the figures re turned by City Aesor Everest. Including the $40,000 ralee of the assess ment of the City Water Work company, the total Increase only amounted to $50,000, while the aggregate reduction footed up $54,000. As the city directly derives no benefit from the Increase la the assess ment of the water works company, the ac tual reduction In the city assessment Is therefore $44,000. The final action of tho Board of Review has caused more or less dissension among the aldermen. Those who voted for In creasing the assessments of the corpora tions and some of the larger business houses are alleging that their conferees backed out of the agreement. Alderman Lougee la authority for the statement that the aldermen at the previous meeting when the assessments were raised agreed to stand by their action, but when It came to a final test they backed down.

Harry Lawrie of the firm of Fisher A Lawrie, Omaha, appeared before the board and sub mitted a number of plana for a library building, Including plana of the Carnegie library in Lincoln, Neb., which his firm drew. Mrs. Everett stated that as far as she was concerned she had made up her mind and she favored giving the work to the firm of Chicago architects, a member of which was before the board at Is last meet ing. She said that under no clcumatances would she agree to employing an Omaha firm of architects." - James Bertram, Mr., Carnegie'a private secretary, ., in a .letter to Trustee Baird, wrote that Mr. Carnegie leaves , the ques tion of architects to the city In which the library Is ro be built. Secretary Bertram ,e named four Arms of; architects without recommending any particular1 one, Pre8dent Roherer stated he hoped that "e noaro wouia yiem to pumic sentiment I In this matter and nmrtlnv local architects . . t An adjournment was taken to next Mon day night when it la expected the board will take some definite actliav in the matter.

ALL READY TO MAKE DAMASCUS STEEL Thirty-Six Thoaaaad rifty Ties, sad Dollar Faad for Saaeran naated Methodist Minlntere. la Raised. (From a Staff Correspondent ) DES MOINES. April 28. (Special.) Tha Iowa Falls railroad, which la now com pleted from Iowa Falla to Des Moines and has been put In condition for traffic, will soon atart additional trains and put on an excellent aervlce, making connections with the Illinois Central trains east and becom ing to all Intents and purposes a feeder for the Illinois Central, though separate from It. The company has put up an excellent track and the trains will run into tha union depot in Des Moines. It faad been expected all along that tha company would secure a handsome tax bonus from towns along the way and tax aid was voted in Nevada and other places, but all on condi tion that the company should complete Its line and have It In operation to Dea Moines by January 1 of this year. The company did lay track into the city limits and run a train In on the last day of the year, but did not succeed In establishing regular service for some time afterwards. Tha town council at Nevada at first voted to have the tax levied, but later rescinded the order and now If the company aecurea any of the aid It will be after a long fight In the courts. The general impression la that the bonus will never be aecured. Will Make New Steel. The Damascus Steel company, which was formed In this city to manufacture the steel which Is the invention of S. R. Daw son, has decided upon engaging directly in manufacture and has purchased a mill at New Brighton, Pa. The company Is formed largely of Des Moines and Iowa capitalists. Before going Into the schema Dawson gave abundant evidence that he was able to make steel by a very simple process direct from soft Iron by addition of chemicals. While he was serving time In the peniten tiary for the murder of his son-in-law, desperate efforts were made to wrest from him the secret of hla Invention, but he would not give It up, even to those who had then partially formed a company to manufacture the metal. Now he has con fided his secret to one other man so that: In rase he should die someone will know' how to make the steel. Des Moinea people have great confidence In Dawson. He la Just one of these queer, erratic geniuses most likely to hit upon some great Inven tion, and he has certainly demonstrated hla ability to make ateel of a superior qual ity and do it very cheaply. Fond for Methodist Mlalatara. The movement to establish a permanent fund to make provision for superannuated Methodlat ministers Is making excellent progress In the Des Moinea conference of the church, which embraces all southwest ern Iowa. For three yea re Rev. Fletcher Brown of this city has been engaged In work for this fund and to data has aecured about 838.000. He waa commissioned by the conference to raiae $50,o00, which will be Invested where it will yield a permanent Income which will be used to give aeaiat ance to ministers who have passed their usefulness and are In need. Mr. Brown re ports that It Is only a matter of time In getting the matter before the members of his church In tha conference and that tha aum will be raised In less than tmo yeara more.
