Worth of Cattle and Horses Given as One Reason. Rural townships of Madison county are showing a big deciease in personal property tax valuations it was given out at the Board of Review office today as work of checking the assessment of this year with those of last year is well under way If the decreases continue the board members will have a big deficit to overcome. By night, the first ten townships of the county will be completed. Thus far only the smaller townships a been compared and there is nothing to indicate a will happen in the industrial and semi-industrial communities of the county. It will be another two or three weeks before the larger townships are ready for comparison.

The board members said that a general decrease in personal prop erty may be expected on account of the lower values. Several instances were cited in which horses are valued at $70 or less, About $40 seems to be the average value of cows and mules are ranging i $60 to A few instances are reported with $100 as the value of a mule. There are indications that farmers have been selling all horses, mules and cows for which they had no special need. In reducing the number of cattle, the values are cut. Some of the rural townships will have reductions ranging as high as $15,000 to $25,000.

After the personal property books are checked the real estate books be compared search of places for increases. Any great amount of improvements will help maintain last year's value. Some time during July the assessors -will be called in to explain rial reductions. The assessors -will be followed with property owners where increases are proposed. PRESBYTERIANS ARE FIVE-DAY SESSION Jacksonville, 111 June 16--Followers of the teachings of John Calvin assembled here today to attend the annual meeting of the Presbyterian Synod of Illinois.

The meeting will be in session five days and preparations were made to entertain 1,200 delegates. Practically every church of the denomination in Illinois was expected to be lepresented by its pastor and one or more laymen. Freoconference meetings of various kinds were on today's program. The Synod's general council held its first session. The annual sermon will be given tonight by Rev.

F. Jones, to be followed by an address from Prof. E. J. Goodspeed, ot the University of Chicago on "Why Translate the New Testament?" Addresses by many of the leading ministers of the denomination will mark the sessions tomorrow and later in the week.

Women's synodi- cal meetings will be held separately. New York, June 16--William G. McAdoo will have in excess of 400 votes in the first ballot in. tho Democratic national convention here next week, Gov. Al Smith will have nearly 300, and the balance will be scat- teied among a dozen men, favorite sons and dark horses.

This repiebents today a reconciliation of all the claims made by the McAdoo and Smith leaders, together with the known statistics on instructions which some delegates have received. Some of the McAdoo leaders claim that hsi initial strength will he considerably excess of the 400. Some of the more etuhusiastic claim even that he will poll a majority the convention--550--on the first ballot. The whole story of the convention, in the opinion most unprejudiced observeis, lies in the ability of McAdoo to hold his strength and increase it after the early balloting. Tl managers ot the McAdoo campaign, who have been working industriously in every state in the union for more than a year now, are supremely confident that the initial strength can be held, and increased.
