(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN. May 34,-(SpeclaL1 Questions
propounded to Tax Commissioner J. T.
Ms her of the Roc Island railroad by the
members of the State Hoard of Equaliza
tion thla morning brought forth the Infor
mation that the Rock. Island, lnco-porated
tinder the laws of New Jersey, was In the
nature of a corporation not unlike the
Horthern Securities company. The ques
tion was asked Me. Maher direct by Treas
urer Mortensen, and. the evasive answer
"was that "It la a corporation organized to
hold the stock of some other corporations
and Us three corporations." By question
ing the tax commissioner further learned
that the Rock Island, Incorporated in New
Jersey, holds the st jck of the other two
Jlock Island roads, ' totfethcr with the
Frisco and the Rock Island In Texas.
The board sent for Mr. Mahor because the
!Rock Island Is Incorporated to the Reck
Island In New Jersey, Chicngn, Rock
Island Railroad comptyiv, and the Chicago,
Bock Island Railway c mpany. Incorpo
rated under the lowaUlllnnla laws, and it
deeded to know und,r whnt road the re
turns were made to Nebraska.. At the be
ginning of the hearing Oovurnor Mickey
administered to Mr. Maner the oath that
lie would "tell the ruth, the whole truth
and nothing but the truth." Whethvr the
oath had anything i) do with It or not Mr.
Maher was very undivided about most of
the questions put to liii.i and asked that he
be given time to look up the r.nwn. This
time was granted and he agreed to como
back to Lincoln next Saturday with the in
formation wanted. The questions to be
answered are:
"What la the value of the. $74,iW.floH cap
italisation" and "Mow much was the cap
ital stock f the company lncreard when It
bought the fftirllngton. .dar Rapids
Northern roadV Mr. Maher said he could
rot answer those questions, but that he
would gladly' .look the matter up for the
board and report next Saturday.
Mabrr la Infilboi,
The board ussumed the nature of a real
board of Inquisition this morning, and after
lr. Maher had taken the oath he waa put
through an examination equal to the sweat
box. .He told that the Rock Island In Texas

operated exclusive of the corporation arid
that It was not necessary to report it to
Nebraska. It waa the same way with the
road'a business done in Oklahoma and In
dian Territory insofar as Nebraska waa
concerned, for Mr. Maher stated that none
of the business done in those territories
came through Nebraska, and therefore It
waa not within the jurisdiction of Nebraska
to consider it in making up the assessment.
Then Mr. Maher explained the three dif
ferent organisations of his system, and in
answer to questions stated that since the
New Jersey corporation had been formed
no stock had been on the market. Mr.
Maher was then 'asked if he would take
Clews' reports for the valuation of the
capitalization, and he said he would not,
but would find the value for the board, and
time waa given him.
This afternoon Mr. Scrlbner and Mr.
Stebbens of the Union Pacific were put on
the rack by the board In an endeavor to
find the value of the stocks and bonds that
apply to the Union Pacific proper. The
capitalisation of the company, as shownjn
the report, refers to the Union Pacific and
its auxiliary lines, and Mr. Scrlbner told
the board that Inasmuch as the stocks were
Interchangeable and Union Pacific stock
had been Issued In exchange for the stocks
of the other companies he did not see bow
the capitalization could be divided up.
Most of the afternoon was taken up with
a comparison of the report of the company
and Poor's manual, Mr. Mortensen holding
the manual and asking the questions.
Mr. Scrlbner will conclude his examina
tion tomorrow and the session in all prob
ability will result in a split in the board on
the matter of the value of the stocks and
bonds of the Union Pacific proper. Mr.
Scrlbner argued, and he undoubtedly has a
portion of the board with him, that the
mileage of the Oregon Short Line and the
Oregoa Navigation company be divided Into
the capitalisation of the company to find
the valuation per mile, instead of dividing
the amount by the mileage of the Union
Pacific proper, 2,93 miles. The mileage, in
cluding the other lines, amounts to some
6. OX) miles. Using the lesser mileage, as
advocated by Mr. Mortensen, the Union
Pacific on a stock and bond basis would be
valued at 51.04A a mile.

LABORER SHOT BY BRAKEMAN
,
Men Show Fight When Trainmen Or
der Them Out of Car.
SIDNEY, Neb., May 23. (Special Tele
gram.) Peter Liaels of Kansas City, a
Greek, formerly employed on the Union
Pacific railroad, was shot In the stomach
at noon today one mile west of Lodge
Pole by F. D. Curan, a brakeman running
between North Platte and Sidney.
A Union Pacific, freight train in charge
of Conductor George Smith was pulling
out of Lodge Pole, when a small boy
standing near the train informed tha con
ductor that a large crowd of Greeks had
boarded one car, stealing a ride. Brake
men C. McNeal and Curan went forward
and ordered them off, but the five Greeks
run the brHkemen off the train at the
point of a pistol, at the same time nrlng
a pistol at McNeal. The bullet lodged In
the forward end of the car. Then Curan
pulled his pistol and endeavored to shoot
one of the Greeks in the leg, but instead
the bullet lodged in the stomach.
The wounded man was taken to Ixvlge
Pole and placed In care of the Union
Pacific surgeon. Dr. Varletz. The bullet
waa extracted, but the chances are the
shot will prove fatal. One of the Greeks
being interviewed says that they boarded
the train for the purpose of going to
Cheyenne and that they offered the brake
man 50 cents to take them as far as
Sidney, but the brakeman demanded U.
They were then ordered off by the brake
man, but refused to go until Curan shot
Llaels, when they all Jumped off and
brought their wounded comrade to Ixidge

Deputy County Attorney Gapen left here
this evening to take the ante-mortem dep
