Tax Commissioner Fleming has now so
far completed his work as to show 'he
total figures of the assessment for 1903, as
e adjusted It without the revisions which
ave been, made by the Board of Review.
Above are given the figures.
These figures show a marked Increase
over those of last year, which was entirely
the valuation of personal property. The
ssessracnt of last year was made on the
basis of 40 per cent of the full value of
he property, and this year the policy
adopted was to assess all property at Its
fair cash value. Following are the figures
of last year multiplied by 2ft for the pur
pose of comparison, that the full valuation
of the property be shown:

About a lfnndred Million.
In the aggregate the total, exclusive of
tho railroad property, will not be ma
terially affected by tho revisions of the
Board of Review and will certainly not be
reduced and there will, therefore, be close
to 1 100,000,000 of property to be assessed
without Including the railroads.
George D. Patterson appeared before tho
board yesterday as the representative
of the Pacific Express company, which cor
poration the board had been asked by the
Real Estate exchange to assess at $12,000,-
000 upon its capital stock of $6,000,000. Mr.
Patterson said that his company la cap
Italled for $6,000,000 and Is owned by
the railroad companies, aa had' been rep
resented. The stock, he said, had averaged
less than 6 per cent per year earnings for
many years past. Other states had taxed
the company on Its earnings and some on
its mileage and some on its property. He
called attention to the fact that It waa pro
posed to place an assessment upon the
company in this city which would mean
$55,000 of taxes, and then stated that the
local business of the company in Nebraska
was but $29,000 a year and the interstate
business originating In Nebraska $60,000
per year, making a total of $89,000 in this
state. He said that the average of the
earnings of the company in the United
States had been $46 per mile and the aver
age in Nebraska $58 per mile. In Colo
rado the company was assessed at the rate
of $55 per mile.
Mr. Patterson declared that ha conoid
ered the only fair method of taxation of
his company would be on Its mileage. Tho
case was taken under advisement.
Appears for the Elkhorn.
J. B. Sbeean appeared on behalf of the
Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis Omaha
and the Fremont, Elkhorn & Missouri Val
ry rauroaa companies, but merely in a
special way, to file protests against the
Jurisdiction of the tax commissioner and
Board of Review, as had been done in the
cases of the other railroad companies
cited.
The documents filed by Mr. Sheean wero
In comparison with those previously filed
remarkable for their brevity and, as he
explained, not Intended to educate the
board on the general subject of railroad
taxation or political economy, but to apply
to the present case and situation. They
were In a general way alike and merely
set forth the fact that the respective rail
road companies in question have been
assessed on their properties through the
action of the State Board of Equalization,
with a protest against any assessment on
the part of the tax commissioner or the ac
ceptanca of any such assessment by the
Board of Review.
Mr. Sbeean stated briefly, in presenting
the protests, that it appeared to the offl
cera of tho Elkhorn company that the as
sessment of $360,000 per mile placed upon
the road by the tax commissioner was un
Justly high. The company had but three
miles of road within the city limits and
that road could be replaced at a cost of
from $20,000 to $50,000 per mile. The
earnings of the road last year, he said
were but $285,000, which would make the
proportion to be credited to the three miles
in Omaha about $615 per mile. This part
of the Elkhorn road, he said, was only
branch line anyway and tho main line was
from Missouri Valley to tne black Hills
The affairs of the Chicago, St. Paul,
Minneapolis & Omaha road were not dls
cussed In detail by Mr. Sheean, except as
to the present value of its terminals as
compared to their value in years past.
Mrlatosh Questions Sheean.
J. H. Mcintosh, representing ths Real
Estate exchange, asked Mr. Sheean if the
terminals were at valuable now as they
were in 194, and the railroad attorney
said that while he was not an expert on
that subject, and would consider that Mr.
Mcintosh's opinion should be as good as
his own, he would say he thought all
properly In Omaha should show an In
crease In vslue In that period of years.
As In the other railroad cases, Mr. Mc
intosh Introduced records of the United
States court with testimony of officers of
the Omsha road as to the value of certain
portions of the property of the company.
In one place In this recorded testimony
John B. Berry wss shown to have stated
that the terminals of the Omaha road hal
cost $285,500 prior to 1886 and were at
he present time much more valuable.
Mr. Shean asked Mr. Mcintosh if he would
please state his own opinion of the value
the terminals and to this Mr Mcintosh
nswered that he waa only a general at
torney, but if be were a railroad attorney
e would probably be Informed on those
matters and qualified to answer such ques
tions. Mr. Sbeean then asked: "Do you
ecllne to give me your honest opinion of
the value of those terminals, Mr. Mcin
tosh?" To this question Mr. Mcintosh
made no reply, but resumed his reading of
estlmony.
The Board of Review yesterday com
pleted its valuation of the personal prop
erty of the national banks of the city for
the assessment of .1903. This assessment
has been adjusted by the board on the fig
ures furnished by the banks, but has been
fixed in round numbers for convenience in
pportlonlng the amounts among the stock
holders of the different Institutions.
The amount of capital stock and real es
tate holdings of each of the banks and the
aluatlon placed by the .board upon their
property, respectively. Is shown in the
