Now the scene of the battle is transferred to that official's office; as his collections are much larger his personal protits in the way of interest are correspondingly greater, frequent "demands" must be made upon him to secure sufficient funds to meet current liabilities.

This continues through the summer and fall, until a final settlement is had about Dec. 1. So, it will be seen, that from the time the Assessor starts out in the spring to the time the County Treasurer makes his final report, the city. by reason of not being able to control its own funds, is handicapped at every point and is often obligod to borrow money, while at the same time large balances are in the bands of Collectors and the County Treasurer. From what has been said you will sea what an abominable system (if it can be called a system at ail) we have for getting our just dues and how it operates to embarrass at every step the efforts of your city officials to conduct your affairs on a proper business basis.

The whole plan is as pernicious as it is possible to conceive and fraught with the greatest possible danger to the best interests of our beloved city. If by agitation of this subject the Civic Federation can bring about a reform which will place the resources of the city within the control of its own officers they will not have been organized in vain. Spirited Discussion. W. D.

Kerfoot combated the assertions of Mr. Hesing that the poor man, the small property owner, paid the largest percentages of taxation. Ile asserted that the down-town business property was assessed at one-fifth its valuation and alt residence property was assessed correspondingly. The Assessor made a lower rate on residence property than other species of property because the residence owner had a vote. Miss Jane Addams gave a graphic description of the condition of streets, lights, and inadequate police service in the Nineteenth Ward.

She said Hull house had made a comparison of the assessed valuation of property in the ward with that of the better class of residence property in other sections. The result showed the residence districts of the poor quarters of the city, the homes of the workingmen, paid the cost of its lights, police, and helped to pay the expense of the line roadways, magnificent lights, and adequate police protection of the rich and well-to-do man's distriet. D. K. Tenney disputed the need of a constitutional convention as the remedy.

He said the present Constitution gave all the remedy required. The selection of Assessors could either be by election or appointment. The Legislature could enact a law providing for their appointment, and the appointing power could easily demand the Assessors to live up to the law and assess property at its full cash value.

There are thousands of tired women today on the verge of breakmg down because they are martyrs to their own false ideas of do. mestic duty. They are slaves to their homes; and their exalted notions of absolute order and cleanliness keep them from morning to night upon the rack of mental and physical torture until they grow old, care worn, nervous, irritable, and sickly in their foolish struggle with dust. Only the exceptionally strong can stand the debilitating effect of overheated rooms, lack of fresh air and exercise, overburdened stomachs. and the artificial, nervous, hurried life of so many good wives and mothers.

H. Brown, Two Harbors. Clever Arrest of Back Harland by Maj. Carter of the Secret Service. SHELBYVILLE, Sept.

The arrest of Buck Harland, the notorious counterfeiter, at his home near Norristown, this county, has caused general talk touching his connection for years with the Babe Hawkins gang of outlaws. Harland has served two terms for counterfeiting. His first ex. ploits.were in and about Tipton, twenty years ago with the Hawkins gang, when raids were made, resulting in the death of two men and the wounding of many. The famous battle of Smithland occurred and after wounding the Sheriff and several deputies Babe Hawkins escaped.

Harland fled to Ripley County and joined the Rittenhouse gang, where he learned the art of counterfeiting. Old Sam Rivers and the Levys of Ripley County became his assistants in horse-stealing and passing counterfeit money. In 1889 Rivers, the Levys, and Buck Harlan were captured and sent to prison, the latter for three years. Harlan became acquainted with Mrs. Anna Titus, widow of Robert Titus.

She owned sixty acres of valuable land near Norristown. They were married, and here he erected a dynamo laboratory and made dies for the manufacture of gold and silver coin. Maj. Carter, the United States detective, laid his plans well. Harlan is deaf, and the officers discovering him in the distance in the back yard managed to get the house between' them and him.

He was doing something with an az when Maj. Carter approached from behind and very pleasantly said: Good evening, Buck." Buck started as if shot. and remarked in an excited manner: "Well. what in the name of God do you want now?" tell you, Buck," said the Major, keey ing a close look on the ax you know the Shelby County fair was held last week. Now there were two counterfeit $10.

bills passed on the man at the fair and you answer the description of the fellow who shoved the money. The man is now in Shelbyville and I want you to me to town and go before him. If he fails to identify you I will let you return home tonight." "He can't identify me," was the desperado's reply. They went to the road, where Deputy United States Marshal Taylor was in waiting. Maj.

Carter told Buck to get in the buggy, but catching him off his guard both officers seized him and slipped the handcuffs on his wrists. The Major then returned to the house to search for apparatus and soon unearthed convincing evidence of Buck's guilt. Knowing Babe Hankins and his gang would dttempt a rescue, Carter ordered the driver to steer at first towards Edinburg. Half hour 4ater Hawkins learned Buck was a prisoner. He was not long in mustering his forces, and was soon in hot pursuit.

The Major's ruse nad led Hawkins to believe Edinburg was the objective railroad point, and on he went on a fool's errand, while the officers and prisoner gushed towards Shelbyville. It is expected the arrest of Harlan and Phil Coup will result in breaking up the gang, as it is said Coup proposes turning State'a evidence. It is thought some persons heretofore considered prominent will be implicated with the gang. A.E.U. OFFICERS FILE THEIR BRIEFS.

RE-FIRED TEAS ARE PLENTY IN THIS MARKET AT 5, 10 and 15c Per 11115112 GROCER. dkt ft Conference at Commerce Club Washington Meting Says the Word Dishonmay" Expresses the Condition of Things in Chicago W. K. Ackerman Furnishes Some Interesting Figures on Property Valuation and th Expenditure of Money.

With the exception of the town candidates elected on the Reform ticket on the South side some years ago, there has not been an honest Tax Assessor in Chicago in recent years," said Washington fleeing in his speech to the members of the Civic Federation at the conference at the Commerce club yesterday afternoon. The conference was called by the Subcom' mittee on Revenue Laws and Town Relations of the general committee seekmg to compile reform laws for presentation to the Legislature. Harvey B. Hurd of Evanston presided. Mr.

Heeing's address was on the methods of Chicago assessments. "One word," be said, "expresses the condition of things in this city, and that word is dishonesty. I do not mean to limit the term to the Assessor. He Is not alone in the absurd low valuation of much of our property. He is aided by the respectable citizen, the millionaire, and the greedy corporations.

These pay less than their just taxation and the poor man, the owner of a little home. pays the burden of taxes in Chicago because he cannot bribe the Aseessor." Mr. Ilesing then proceeded to prove his assertions. lie said the Staals-Zeitung Build. ing was worth $300.000.

It was assessed at $38,000. lie said he had time and again called upon the Assessors and demanded the property be assessed at its proper valuation. The Assessors had declined to raise the assessment on the plea they would have to make a corresponding increase on adjacent property and wouid be defeated at the election. He de. cared he had made out his personal return for the printing office of the paper and the Assessor bad reduced the amount to $4,000, while the value of his presses alone was 000.

Chicago was suffering from an under. valuation of its property by Assessors. A compliance with the law would give Chicago an assessment of over $1.000,000,000 instead of $245,000,000, and this would yield a revenue ample to clean the streets and maintain a competent police force. Mr. lies.

ing suggested as the remedy the holding of a constitutional convention to give the needed relief. Controller W. K. Ackerman read a paper prepared by him for the conference. Beginning by giving the area of the original town created in 1837, with an area of ten square miles he gave the various annexations which had miles, the area uri to 186 square miles.

lie then spoke in substance as follows: More 'Liabilities than Assets. When the original town gradually "took on" and adopted these fragments it received with them for the most part a good ninny more per-'may good liabilities, present and prospective, than it did assets. Annexation brought with it few compensative features and these adopted children have veeded looking after ever since they were taken in the family. My motive in appearing before the State Board of Equalization at Springdeld was to help create a public sentimeat in favor of revenue reform. Under the law, however (Rev.

Statutee, Chap. 120, Sec. 106. p. the authority of the State Board or Equalisation is limited to a variation of 1 per cent upon the values that are returned to them by the different counties, excepting in the case of railroad property.

I did, however, recommend that an addition be made to the amount assessed to persoual property. of which the As. lessors found only $24,725.225 in all Cook County. One of the members of the State board told ine that the Assessors had found only $4,300 worth of diamonds in the whole county. In 1871 the assessed value of all property in the City of Chicago was $289.746.470: that year the fire destroyed $200,000,000 of property and yet in 1872, only one year after, the assessed value was $263.197.430.

only $6.000,000 less. In 1873 it was $312,072.995. In 1875, under a new law which bad been enacted. values dropped to $173.764,246, and in 1880 it reached the low point of $117.000.000. In 1893, with an increase of 1.000,000 in population and notwithstanding the fact that there was a large appreciation in value of real estate, and the further fact that the Building Department had issued permits during the previous nme years only authorizing the construction Of buildings to cost only $245,790,351 was returned as the total equalized value of all property, both real and personal, for the great City of Chicago for that year.

Two per cent. which is the percentage allowed on 790,351 for municipal purposes, yielded 907.02, from which should be deducted probable loss on non-collection say. 2 per cent, or $98,316.14, leaving availade $4,817.490.08. To thia was added $3,731,694.05 as probable receipts from licenses and other sources, making the aggregate available $8,549,184.93. I refer now to the amount received for municipal per- pose upon an assessed value of $345,790.351.

We are entitled to 2 per cent on this for municipal purposes: this does not include interest on debt, sinking fund, or eehool tax, but simply such items as police, lire, street repairsesewerage, Health Department, legal expenses, salaries, eiection expenses, police courts. etc. Two per cant on the assessed value lees cost of collection, $4.817,490.88, and the balance necessary to complete the amount of the appropriation for 1894 is derived principally from saloon licensesthat is why I suggested that every citizen who dodged his taxes last year ought to be very respectful in his attitude towrd the saloonkeepers. The total tax levy for the year 1993 amounting to was apportioned as follows: Sinking fund account, interest account, $994.500 schaol tax fund. pnblic library, Total, $8,074.004.

For municipal purposes there was given: Fire Departinent. $628,690.99 sewerage fund. 851.60; Department Public Works, 523.76; House of Correction, contingent fund. $15.300: Police Department, 926.94; street lamp fund, Health Department, election expenses, 000; judgment acconnt, $8 legal expenses, $30,600: eateries, cost collecting taxes, printing and stationery. pounde, 2,550: police courts.

City Clerk's office. city cemeteries. $510; Milk Department, $15,300. Total, 965.69. The School Department gets 46 per cent of the whole or say $5.500.000 besides its income from school property.

It is the only department that kiss sufficient means to carry on its work unhampered. Last year it expended $6,200.000, a greater sum than either New York, Boston, or Philadelphia. German, calisthenics, music, and physical culture kept step with dirty streets, broken pavements, dim lights, and the plethoric garbage box. Thia then wns the tots! allowance for running the city government one year (omitting for the present receipts for licenses). With these figures before you do not rail at municipal extravagance.

rather marvel that so much is accomplished with the means in baud. Comparative Figures. With $2,010,920.04 the Police Department is expected to maintain order with one policeman to 600, innabitants while there is at the same tune one saloon to every 300 inhabitants. With one-quarter of the area to protect New York appropriated $5.300.000 for this purpose alone. ith $1,500.000 the Fire Department is required to purchase all the paraphernalia necessary, to pay the wages of 1.000 firemen, and answer over 7,000 calls (3.000 more than London or New York).

With $97,350 the Health Department is expected to stamp out 350 cases of smallpox. erect an additional pesthouse. and perform every service in connection with the pub- lie health. With $25,500 the Law Department is expected to resist successfully every claim aeainst the city, calling to its aid extra legal talent if necessary to see that its rights are carefully protected. With $648,450 the Street Department is to see 2.475 miles of streets are kept clean, while New York.

with one-quarter of the mileage, appropriates $2.500,000. And so on, going through the list, it. will be patent to any good business-man that in no single instance is any one of the vetecue appropriations adequate to the needs of the city; eepecitilly le this true in the Department of Public Works. People complain that the streets are not kept in repair. They are not; they cannot be with the means in band.

There are in the city 2.466.86 miles of street; of this mileage 1.062.95 are improved and 1,411.81 are unimProved. New York, with an area of forty-two square miles, has just completed its appropriation bill year 1894, which amounts to 000. It appropriates for the Police Department alone more than we get for our entire municipal needs. The total appropriation for Philadelphia is $18.221,041, and for Boston $13.391.754. The Assessors have about six weeks in which to make a complete examination of the property, both real and versonal, in their district and to place a fair cash value upon the same.

It most be evident to any business-man that the time allowed Assessors is too short; they are for the znoet part men who have little or no knowledge of values of this kind. The whole business of assessments should be placed under one responsible bead. The assessments when completed should be published. After the work of the Assessers is completed they hand their books over to eleven Town Collectors. who commence aa active campaign of collection.

About this time the city exchequer gets pretty low. then the annual tussle between the Controller and the Collectors begins to obtain sufficient funds to meet current obligations; the longer the Collectors can hold on to the peopie's money the more interest they secure for themselves'. Finally comes the time when they pie money too more Interest tney secure tor I titetuseltres nally Comes the time when they 1 a "Her Neighbor's Furs." 1 WRITING ON THE WALL.

Briefs were filed in the United States Court of Appeals yesterday in support of the appeal taken from the Circuit Court by Debs and other officers of the American Railway Union from the injunction of Judges Grosseup and Woods.

The reasons urged in the briefs why the injunction should not have been issued are that the bit' filed by the District-Attorney in behalf of the railroads was not signed by the Attorney-General of the United States and was not in his name, and that the bill was not 'verified by the proper affidavit, the affidavit not appearing to have been made by any person having authority to act for the United States. The affidavit was made by C. Q. Allen, an of Marshal Arnold's office. Asarr ANIMA.

Two tugs attempted to bring it in but the towline parted and the schooner drifted on the beach.
