The State Board of Equalisation back tracked on Ita refosal to grant the request of the V nlnn Pacific for a record showing the board had refused to Inrreaaa land value, by reaclnd ' tnc that action, and then turned right around and did the earn thing again by 'including In Ita final resolution a denial . of tha remonatranoa of the Unloa Pacific, j When Bdson Rich, attorney for the rail road, aaked that the resolution be adopted Treasurer Brian Objected and voted alone .gainst adopting the suggestion of the ( railroad lawyer. Mr. Brian held that Mr f TUcrtltad no right to attempt to make up 'fthe records of the board, but that If he wanted a bin of exceptions or any kind of record he should take It from the records 'Of the board, tha board to keep Us own minute. The other four members of the board, however. Voted for the Rich resolu tion, after slightly modifying It. Then, fearing they probably had made It easier for tha railroads to get Into the courts, all the other members . endorsed Mr. Brian's tand by voting to rescind their action. Mr. Rich was to hare appeared before the board this morning to argue for his bill Of exceptions, but he failed to show up ntt1 lata this afternoon. After a debate lasting the remainder of the afternoon, the board turned down the request ef Mr. Rich for a bill of exceptions. In the btll as prepared by him were state ments regarding the valuation of personal property, which the board said had nothing to do with the land values, and therefore had no place In the error procedlngs. The actio, of the board In refusing the request bad tha sanction of the attorney general. While Mr. Thompson snd Mr. Rich were consulting and trying to get together Gov ernor Sheldon announced that If the at torneys could not get together the board could. nd at once the vote was taken and tha request turned down. The Union Pacific will appeal to the supreme court for a mandamus to compel the board to give It tha bill of exceptions. Omclal Fladtaac of Board.

WITH GOLD PIECES IT IS KOT SO Covers neat lias Table of Deereue la Weight Natarally to Be lis ported from Oralaary Wear. What becomes of all the money that Is worn smooth or plugged or othe. wite mutlll ated? This Is tlmost as great a mystery as either of those much mooted questions, "Who hit Billy Patterson?" and "How old In Ann?" "The worn and mutilated coins In Omaha circulation are bought up by dealers In Chicago," said O. T. Zlmmermann, paying teller In the Flrt National bank. "When ever the bank receives a coin that Is worn so that It cannot be recognised or that Is plugged or mutilated In any way, the teller puts it away In a bag kept for that purpose. About four times a year the dealer comes around and buys whstever we have on hand just as the Junk man comes around and buys the old Iron and lead you have lying In your barn. t "Silver or nickel coins, as long as any part of the Inscriptions can be deciphered, are generally accepted at their face value. The moment the last trace of Identification disappears the coin becomes merely so much metal. Silver coins bring about SO cents on the dollar and nickel Is bought up at about the same price. Different with Rold. "With gold It Is a different story. That aristocrat of the money world Is too vslu able to be overlooked. Gold coins are ex amined closely and If they appear worn more than the date of their coinage would warrant we have to make a discount. The government has a table of decrease In weights naturally to be expected from or dinary wear. A badly worn gold coin bear ing date of 18u attracts no attention. But If a coin of lX) date Is badly worn It Is noticed at once and there Is naturally a sunplcion that It has been tampered with. "We send worn gold coins to the Treasury department and there they arc marked with an 'L' which stands for 'light.' Many peo ple do not know what that letter stands for on a gold coin. Trobably the total volume of worn money sold from Omaha in the course of a rear j - , . docs not exceed X0. Wealth la the Discovery. The man who would discover a process of making gold and sllves coins hard as ada mant would doubtless become wealthy. Still he would give the death blow to that fas cinating game which people now play of getting rid of worn coins.

IS LET OUT Fifth Change la Kansas City Police Force Since the Ihskeif Besan. KANSAS CITY. Mo.. Aug. 1. Governor Joseph W. Folk's promise of a shakeup In the local police department, made on May 17 when he came to Kansas City to personally start an Investigation of charges of corruption, was given added force this afternoon when the Board of Police Com missioners failed to. reappoint Chief John Hayes, and named Daniel Ahearn, Inspec tor of detectives, acting chief tn his place. Later a permanent chief will be named. Lieutenant Charles Ryan waa made In spector of detectives, to succeed Ahearn. Hayes Is the fifth officer to be let out or who has resigned stmte the Investigation waa begun. It Is stated that others high ln rank on the force are to be ousted and that over twenty policemen will be dropped from the rolls. It had been given out that Chief Hayes waa to be ordered before the board and for mally charged with Irregularities. Instead the board decided simply not to recommls slon him. As Hayes' commission had ex pired no action of removal was necessary. The board acted unanimously, although Mayor Henry M. Beardsley, tha repub lican member, had only recently, together with Commissioner Roxxelle, who on Mon day was summarily removed by Governor Folk, declared In favor of recommtsslonlng Hayes. Patrolman Harry A. Arthur attempted to shoot ex-Police Commissioner Rosxelle Just before the police board adjourned to night Roxxelle waa on the witness stand trying to Impeach the testimony of Ar- i thur, which had been damaging to Chief Hayes. Arthur Interrupted the witness and Roszelle resented the Interruption In a heated manner, whereupon Arthur at tempted to draw his pistol. Chief Hayes dlssrmed Arthur and quiet was restored. Earlier In the session Commissioner Gal lagher called Chief Hayes a liar, when the latter told the board that Gallagher's son had used his father's Influence to se cure Insurance business ln saloons and disreputable resorts. Ex-City Detective Bert Brannan, who had supplied Hayes with the evidence against Gallagher's son then rushed forward and called Gallagher a liar. It required the active efforts of Mayor Beardaley and several officers to re. store order. NEW IMPLEMENT HOUSE HERE Do Joage Pirns Leas Is Xow Eft's. tlve, bat Operation, la DrUrrs.

OFFICER PUBLICLY DEGRADED New York Policeman is Fonnd OnlUr of Cowardice Ttemnrkabl Scene at Trial. NEW TORK, Aug. 1. A remarkable scene closely paralleling that memorable one In Paris when Captain Alfred Dreyfus was publicly degraded before the French army, was enacted In the trial room at police headquarters today. For the flnt time In more than thirty years a patrolman had been adjudged guilty of cowardice. Ho Is Stephen 8. Walsh, who, according to the charge made against him, last week fled from an armed man who had shot and killed a woman.' The keen Interest with which the unusual case was followed rose to a point of dramatic Intensity when Police Commissioner Bingham, who had presided personally at the trial, announced In a voice choked with emotion that the charge against the unfortunate man had been proven. Then the commissioner turned to Inspector Richard Walsh, ln whose dis trict Btephen Walsh Is a patrolman, but who Is no relative of the dismissed man, and directed the Inspector to strip Walsh of his shield and uniform buttons, so that he might not leave the trial room with the emblems of his former position as a police man ln good standing on his person. The crowd looked on In wonder and ex citement as the Inspector advanced to per form his unpleasant task. The dismissed man stood still and offered no resistance as the shield was unpinned from his breast, but when the Inspector started to detach the buttons of the uniform Stephen Walsh stepped back and appealed to his attorney against any further humiliation being put upon him ln the presence of his former comrades. Commissioner Bingham, who was laboring under gTeat excitement. Inter posed and directed the Inspector to conduct his former subordinate to the steps of the police building and eject him. Stephen Walsh offered no resistance and went wtth the Inspector to the outer doorway, where he was formally directed to leave the build ing. Throughout the unusual proceeding Btephen Walsh maintained his composure. Stephen Walsh was one of the two men against whom a charge of cowardice was made last week, when Frank Warner was permitted to escape after killing Esther Norllng. Before Warner was csptured he shot and wounded John C. Wilson and terrorlxed hundreds of persons. Patrolman Rooaa, the officer whose name was coupled with that of Walsh In the cowardice charge, waa exonerated after a full hear ing before the commissioner.
