RAILROADS BALK ON TAXES
Tliraa Out Amount Ausased for Water and
Lighting Furpotet,
INSIST PART. OF LINES ARE NOT BENEFITED
Coaarll Looking Matter I and Bait
May Be Broaght ia Endeavor i
Collect the Amoant
Held Oat.
For 'some years past the Union Pacific,
Illinois Central and Northwestern railroad
have refused to pay the city taxes levied
for water and light purpose. It I said
that the dry has on this account lost sev
eral thousand dollars, and In accordance
with the suggestion of Mayor Macrae and
Instruction of the city council a special
committee, consisting of Counclimen Ma
loney, Hendrlx and Wallace, will make an
Investigation with a view of ascertaining
how much ha been held back In the way
of taxes by these railroad. It I likely suit
will be brought to recover the amount from
the railroad In question.
The position taken by the Union Pacific,
Illinois Central and Northwestern railroad
Is that part of their mileage on which tbey
are taxed la so located as to not receive
any benefit from the city lighting or water
secvlce. This being the view taken of the
matter by the railroads, they, when paying
the annual taxes, withhold a certain por
tion of the water and light tax sufficient
In their estimation to cover that part of
their mileage which they claim derive no
benefit from these public utilities.
A few year ago the Union Pacific re
fused to pay these taxes on the cast half
of Its bridge across the Missouri river, as
serting that it did not derive any benefit,
and Its contention was sustained by Judge
Mcpherson of the United States court. The
Northwestern followed the lead of the
Union Pacific and declined to pay these
taxes on part of It mileage. Later the
Illinois Central .followed suit.
The city officials who have been looking
Into this matter contend that the railroad
have no ground for refusing to pay the
full amount of the taxes levied for both
water and light, considering that despite
their large holdings within the city limits
their taxes are exceedingly small.
Total Railroad Taxes.
Outside of the Union Pacific the city re
ceive annually but about $12,000 In taxes
from all the other railroads centering here.
The following shows the total taxes paid by
tha railroad to the city for this year:
Union Pacific $20 91.59
Northwestern S.7R9.M
uurnngton 1,660.42
Milwaukee 2,006.25
Rock Island , 1,936.80
Great Western 1,068.98
Illinois Central 1,874 83
Wabash 6H7.62
Terminal 360 25
Injustice of Present System.
The unfairness of the present' system of
taxing the railroads 1 fully exemplified In
the local situation. The Northwestern pays
taxes in the city on a valuation of $51,173.
while In Rockford townhlp, this county, it
pay on a valuation of $96.74, In Crescent
township on a valuation of $96,833 and In
Garner township on a valuation of $61,794.
The Burlington pay In the city on a
valuation of $22,203. while In Lewi town-
shlp It pay on a valuation of $4.330.
The Milwaukee pay in the city on a
valuation of $27,098. while in Garner town
ship It pay on a valuation of $62,475.
The Rock Island pay In the city on n
valuation of $26,146. while In Garner town
shlp It pays on a valuation of $63,547.
The Illinois Central pay in the city on
a valuation of $18,672, while In Crescent
township It pay on a valuation of $26,095.
Th Great Western pays In the city on a
valuation of $14,445, while in Garner town
ship It pay on a valuation of $30,034.
The Wabash pay In the city on a valua
tion of $9,436, while ln'Lewi township It
pay on a valuation of $39,811.
The Iowa League of Municipalities ha
taken up th matter of taxing railroad
terminals and City Treasurer True has
been authorised by the city council to em
ploy the necessary help to prepare the
needed statistic and figure from thla city
to assist the league In its work. That the
desired legislation will be obtained at this
session 1 doubtful, - but the league ha
hope of finally securing It.

In town this has given the Grand a monop
oly on the show this year.
Manager Patt ha been retaliating through
the skating rink whloh he control, giving
pedal attraction there whenever there la
anything billed at the Grand. He has also
been bucking the Grand through the Ath

Much comment is aroused by the state
ment that he ha billed Henry E. Dlxey In
"The Man On the Box." ' It Is taken by
many to mean that the war between the

SENSATION IN HERMANN CASE
B T. May of L Grande, Ore, Tells of
Letters Received from the
' Accnsed.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 26,-The first real
sensation of the trial of Representative
Blnger Hermann of Oregon, charged with
deatructlon of publlo records while com
missioner . of the general land office, was
developed today when the government put
B. T. May of Le Grande, Ore., on the
stand. The witness Identified a series of
four letters, two of them written by him
to Commissioner Hermann and the others
written by Hermann to him. All were read
despite objection by the defendant' coun
sel. The first letter from May to Hermann
Informed the commissioner of specific In
stances of the violation in Oregon of the
ton and timber land law; the answer of
Hermann promising an investigation of the
charges. In the third series Mr. May ac
cused Hermann of bad faith and breach of
confidence. In that his charge had been
made known to the alleged violator of
the law in Oregon; and the fourth, from
Hermann to May, declared there had been
no breach of faith and that if the Oregon
persons Interested ' In the charge had
learned of them they must have secured
their Information from soma other source
than the land office, as such communica
tion aa Mr. May'a were always treated a
strictly confidential.
District Attorney Baker, In response to
an inquiry by Counsel Worthlngton, said:
"We propose to show that this defendant
answered one of the May letter himself,
and the second on, when he wa accused
by ths writer with divulging Informations,
be could not answer, but sent to one of
the divisions to be answered by someone
who knew nothing about the original case.
The four letter form a perfect chain of
official correspondence from the land of
fice and w will argu to th Jury that th
one copy missing from th record of th
land office was contained In one of the
books the defendant Is charged with de
stroying. '

SEW YORK STOCKS AND BOND?
Market Opeoi Wsak and Threatening
Break in Fiioei Follows. ,
DECLINE IS PROMPTLY .. ARRESTED
Strength of Persistence Develops, hot
Movement Toward Recovery Is
Malting; Vntll Late la the .
Session.
NEW YORK. Feb. 2. The rapid de
clining tendency of stocks manifested yes
terday was arrested quite promptly today,
but the subsequent movement towards
recovery was halting and uncertain, i'he
recovery did not set In until a threatening
break in prices at the opening, whlcn
made a level of prices, which added many
Important 'market leaders to the list of
low prices for the year.
The strength of the resistance Joveloped
at that particular point proved particu
larly formidable to the contestants for
lower prices, owing to the usual ruaaonlng
of professional operations from tho tech
nical conditions In the market. Increased
resistance at about the previous low level,
on the contrary, leads to an Inference that
accounts previously vulnerable have been
strengthened, either by furnishing addi
tional margins or by reducing the hold
ings In the course of the temporary rally,
w hen prices opened lower at the Stock
exchange this morning there appeared
buying orders for execution by brokerage
houses, which are credited with operating
lor some of the great capitalist asso
ciated In groups. This produced an im
pression on the minds of professional
operator that effective support wa de
signed for the market. Lending of money
on call by houses of this character sug
gested a sold out condition In stock hold
ings. At the same time the demand for
stocks In the loan crowd was keen and
resulted In a shading of the money rate
in order to secure certain active stocks
for delivery. Some Influence was due to
the approaching termination of the exam
ination of F. H. Harriman before the
Interstate Commerce commission, as the
speculative market are not expected any
longer to be affected by a completed epi
sode. Reports from Washington received in
Wall street were of more hopeful pros
pect for the Aldrlch bill and this mad
a cheerful effect on sentiment. Tho im
provement gathered force aa th day pro
gressed and last prices were near the best
ana generally well above last night.
Money continued quite firm and foreign
exchange also was firm, on account of
sales of stock her for foreign account.
