FURS. HIDES AND TALLOW. The ChlcojfD country hide market , according to the Shoe nnd Leather Review , has developed great strength , qualified only by the rather lan guid condition of the leather trade. The contest for hides at country points has been so kein for months that llrm values nre maintained desplto the leather quotations nnd the pressure for lower prices by both tanners and hide deal ers. The rnIn leather Industry Is still de pressed , nnd offers really n Inducement for the puichnne of hides at the high rates now ruling. The dry hide market Is firmer , with a limited numlwr of hides moving and stocks light , nnd denleis cannot get enough to nil oideiti. Very few dry hides nro now coming In fiom New Mexican points , as dealers In that section nro now saltlnir Ihclr hides , ns they claim It bringa them betters returns.

To the Editor of The Dee : All who vnlue the good unmc of our city and nre alive to the present critical con dition of Its nuances hive read with Interest the recent articles In the prejs In reference thereto. The Dee'a articles of January 2 and 3 give a gloomy picture of the condition , showing that unpaid warrants are floating about and drawing Interest ; that we cannot , except by making temporary loans , meet the short-time paving bonds that are maturing every month , and that "tax title brokers" are not willing to Invest. All this Is tco Hue for comfort. The Bee's conclusion Is that we must econo mize. "We must cut our garments according to our cloth , " No doubt we ought to reduce our expenses to a gieat extent , realize that wo are not yet the greatest and richest town ot the west , and .live within our means. But when that Is all done and current expenses are reduced tft suit most economical business Ideas , will not our warrants still be hawked about and our bonds unpaid unless our taxes are collected ? Tvery city warrant now unpaid Is diawn against a tax levied and the payment of every short-time bond outstanding has bsen provided fcr by taxes already levied. If thesa taxes \\ere collected as closely as In former years all warrants > could be paid , nil maturing bonds b ? met and the treasury have a surplus. This Is our trouble our taxes are not paid. Our city finances will never again be on a cash basts and easy to manage until there Is a revival of taxpaylng. I do not lay the blame of non-collection to the treasurers , or at east only a part of It. Much of It Is due to the laws as Interpreted In recent years by the courts , and some to public opinion as represented by the newspapers. When I rsad In The Dee of January 2 a mention of tax title men under the respectful name of "tax title brokers" I v.as surprised and pleased to think that at last one paper had ceased to vilify and Insult men who were engaged In a business as honorable as Its own. But In the Issue of January 5 back goes' The Bee to the old abuse cf these men and they nrc "tax title sharks" again. It scms that som ; of them had paid to the city certain taxes , levied on lots near Ilanscom park , which the courts now say the city had no right to levy. But the city got the money. The Bee says that these men are "sharks , " that they have got their fingers burned and tlmt few will sympathlzq , with them. Well , I have no Idea who these men are , but they have my sympathy , whatever It may bo worth to them ; the same sympathy that I would give to any one who had been robbed. If I get posresslon of your money by mistake and then refuse to restore It I am a robber. The city government that taken money for n tax which It had no right to le-vy and refuses to provide for Its re payment Is no less a robber. What U the business that these tax title men are engaged In that they should seem to have no more friends In this1 community than The Bee lias In the fire and notice corrmlEslon ? And that all the newspapers should chronicle as a victory every court decision against the validity of a tax which the "sharks" have paid to the city ? Let us see how much a. property holder IB robbed by one of these "sharks" under tlio law for the sale of property for delinquent tuxes' . Suppose I do not pay my real estate tax and the amount Is $100. If the properly U not sold the tnx draws Interest ; If It Is sold by the treasurer to ono of these "sharks" I can redeem It at the treasurer's ofllco at the end of ono month by paying for the benefit of the "shark , " over nnd above what the tax and Interest would have been without sals , how much ? Blxty-iwvcn cents ! What a terrible robber your "shark" Is when he takes from mo 67 cents on $100. And under the law I can redeem my real estate at any time within two years by paying this 67 cents per month. Compare this with the enforcement of any other lien through sale by sheriff or com- micsloner. To pay mortgage and other liens we IPS Icng lists of real estate sold every month for one-third or one-fourth of what we have considered It worlh and what we hope It will teen be worth ; and there la no re demption , liut the purchasers at these sales are not "sharks ; " no one calls them so , It Is only purchasers at tax talcs who are "sharks ; " at salon where the owner has two years for redemption , The poor man's little homo sold for taxes Is usually prominent In the picture of the "tax shark's" crimes. The writer has had a very large experience Jn the collection of taxes and that experlenco has shown him that the comparatively poor man , who has a lot or a part of a lot with his home upon It , pays hlu taxes. It may be very hard for him and ho may pay a part at ono tlmo and wait until next pay day for the balance , but ho usually succcds , Not the llttlo home ? go to sale for taxes. The man who has a more expensive home than ho can afford and the ony who has a title to many vacant lots with a mortgage upon them , lots which ho claims lo own , but does not really own , and 1s holding onto for speculation , these are the men who let their prop erty bo offered at sale , men who In many cases have petitioned for pavements opposite their lots out In the country anil now make no effort to pay for them. If certain recent conductions of our rev enue law if are to utand , the laws must bo changed so that a tax lien can bo enforced. Then , perhaps * , the tax title "brokers" will go Into business again. The tdltor of The Dee will remember tlie condition of our finances In 1873 and 1874 , when SO cents on the dollar wan the current price for our war rants. TJX title men wcro Induced to have confld-ence In our revenue laws. They came In and bought up the delinquent lists and put u a on a caih bails , where we remained for twenty yeara. A wholesome fear of tax ealea remained for years with the tax oharka ( f that day. The tax tlllo man It ono of Iho best friends cf the taxpayer and will tx > a prominent factor In our restoration to n sound financial condition. TKUMAN UUCK.

Injured : Charles Glcb , tegs and arm broken and Injured Internally , Special cars were run from this city anil from Akron carrying physician * , nnd all that rould bo done far the Injured was donn by the railroad company. It Is generally believed that the cars Jumped tlio track and that the Jar caused the Iron gliders of the bridge to pimp. When about half way ucioss tlio trcstla the passengers felt a swaying motion ami tl-o next moment ths light steel ftructuro collapsed nnd the cars with their human load went with a crash to the creek belbw. The cars were completely wrecked. The men from the Bedford power house hurried to the assistance of the Injured and begin extricating them from tha wreck as rapidly as possible. The accident occurred at a point a short distance north of Hertford township. Tlia cause of the ccllapso of the bridge Is not yet Known , Later reports show that there were no passengers on the motor , nnd that only the orow , consisting of tli-ee men , went down In the wreck. The brldca that collanscd was a frail structure and was built by the Akron , Hert ford & Cleveland company for the traffic ot Its road. It was built on an Incline , ono end being considerably higher than the other. The span that ciosied the creek was about ITS feet long and the train was Just about In the center of this span when the structure opened up n though It were made uf cardboard and allowed the train with Its human freight to plunge to the ravine be low.
