The exploding gunpowder scattered fire in all directions and hungry flames were quick ministers in the work of death and destruction. The frightful shock which startied the down-town portion of the city almost stunned the people. They knew not which way to turn. The thought of an earth- quake darted into the minds of many and’ bufiaings above them to see if they were falling. ~ — And then came the wild alarm of the fire the streets centering at Third and Olive. The men knew it was a desperate case, for it was a third alarm in the congested business portion of the town, and their set, horses and rumbling wheels etruick the in- cline below: Third street. ‘The fire started in the ‘first floor of the building, 311 North Becond street, occupied by the H.

When asked Thursday about the reductions in the assessments, Mr. Pitzman said: “Take a cable road, the construction of which costs, say $40,000 a mile, and an elec- tric line costing $20,000. Say they have the game amount of traffic. Once constructed ‘the cable line can be operated much more cheaply than the electric line. Say the difference in cost of operation is 0 per cent. For this reason I do not think it fair to assess a cable road twice as much as an electric road merely because its cost ef. original ‘construction was twiee that of the electric road.“ 5 Having explained why the assessments on the cable roads were reduced, Mr. Pitz- man was asked why those on the electric roads had not been raised in accordance with the. intentions of the 1893 Board of Equalization. ö „Because the cost of construction of electric roads was much less in 1895 than before,“ he saſd. The material was much less expensive, especially iron. This had come down to $23 a ton. Now it’s back to $35 again, almost 50 per cent more. „As far as the fact of Mr. Green's mem- bership in the board is concerned,“ con- tinued Mr. Pitzman, “that had nothing to do with the reductions on his roads. When they were under consideration, Mr. Green stated that he was interest and must be counted out. He did not vote at all.“ Mr. Nathan Cole was seen by the reporter but stated that in order to speak accurately he would have to refresh his memory by consulting memoranda and the like, and ac- cordingly could not submit to an interview. He stated, however, in corroboration of Mr. Pitzgman that Col. Charles Green did not participate in the deliberations of the board when his roads were under consideration. Mr. Cole thought that Assessor Frederick would be able to explain the reductions. Mr. Frederick had this to say on the sub- ject of the reduction: “When the returns were made by the street railroads the members of the board wanted to know why the figures were less than in the assessments of 1893. The officers of the different roads all stated thatthe cost of construction was less than it had n. „Besides this, the Board of Equalization is changed each year. The Circuit 5 — appoint the members and I have nothing whatever to do with it. Different men have different views on the subject of assess- ments, as well as on other subjects, and this may have had something to do with the reductions.” Thursday morning a Post-Dispat re- —.— compiled a tabulated statement of e mileage on which the different roads are assessed.

Nine from returns na The discrepancy in the mileage the St. Louis and Suburban is exp Mr. Frederick by the fact that from Vande- venter avenue west the road has own right-of-way, and according to an opinion of City Counselor Marshall the Board of Equalization had nothing to do with that portion, the company ng answerable to the State for it as a railroad. The second discrepancy between the City Register’s figures and those for assessment is in the case of the Union Depot road. The former show 45.57 miles and the road is assessed for but 34 miles, a difference of 11.57 miles. Mr. Frederick states that the Board of Equalization tried to understand this dis- crepancy, but failed. President Scullin. in- sisted that his figures were et, ane — board had no means of verifying the o res. n the case of the Citizen’s, the Lindell and Compton Heights and Merchants’ Ter- minal, the discrepancy is between the as- sessment figures and those quoted.for com- mercial purposes. | The puotations of Whitaker & H show an excess of almost nine miles ov the assessment figures in the case of e Citizens’, nine miles in the Lindell, sixteen miles in the Union Depot, and 5.2 miles in the C.

He states that the city on the completion of work road tracks, should for itself by means of surve exact mileage.

Who evade taxes and get the assessments of rich corporations out, down? which dabble in questioris of municipal economy, saloon licenses and corrupt legislators merely scratch the surface of eorruption. The core is deeper. It lies in the willingness, may eagerness, ot prominent and wealthy citizen’ to bribe legislatures and to elect and use nt officials to fill their own pockets. money in their pockets and stolen fran- chises in their possession are branded, there is little hope of munigipal reform. —— THE COLLEGE PROFESSORS ANSWERED. A few American news rs which have supported the British protest against President Cleveland’s Venezue- lan message have paraded the opinions of college professors as convincing ev!- dence that the President has made a blunder. College professors do not make inter- national law or frame sound policies to meet exigencies in foreign or domestic politics. But accepting the dictum of learned men as worthy of consideration, the President has on his side the best living historical authority on American history. Prof. John Bach McMaster, 3 nene American historian, dorses the President's application of the Monroe Doctrine to the Venezuelan ptrte. He says that his message is timely and sound in every particula He quotes Jefferson’s letter to Mon in which he wrote of the Rush-Canni correspondence submitted to him by Monroe, This sets our compass and through the ocean of time opening to us.” Prof. McMaster adds that “the doctrine was not for 1823, but for all time. It is ‘applicable to the state of things in which we live at the present day.’ Monroe not only announced a doctrine but applied it at the same time. Mr. Cleveland upholds the doctrine and makes another applicatfon.” \ This is the view not only of the leaders of American public opinion, but of the great body of Americans who have come as usual to a truer conclusion’ than the majority of dry-as-dust college profes- sors. Whatever subsidence of public feel- ing there has been on the subject has been caused by the knowledge that two days after the message was promulgated ‘Great Britain was on her knees begging for peace, and the certainty that she the untenableness of her po- recognizes | sition and will never go oe to sus- tain it. _ Chicago must be given credit for good taste in recognizing true female loveli- ness and meritorious art work. When the Windy City’s “400” indulges in a society event of unusual importance, Chi- cago papers represent that event pictori- ally by reproducing, without acknowl- edgement, exquisite illustrations of St. Louis society girls that have previously appeared in the Sunday Post-Dispatch. In its account of the Charity Ball of New. Year’s Eve, the Chicago Inter-Ocean uses as its feature picture of that event Rugsell’s dainty drawing, “A Scene in the Boxes During the Wagner ‘Opera Week in St. Louis,“ which appeared in the Sun- day Post-Dispatch of Dec. 8, but endeav- ors to fit that illustration to Chicago's Charity Ball by labeling it, “One of the Pleasing Pictures of the Evening.” This appreciation of the truly beautiful is to be commended in Chicago, of course, and the Sunday Post-Dispatch is grow- ing accustomed to having its art work stolen in such manner.

That is what you would do, Mr. Chairman, if an emergency should arise in your business, There is a great deal of feeling in the town now about giving franchises in the streets to cable rail- roads and to other corporations without compensation. I do not believe a single rail- road or other corporation should even be allowed to use the streets without compensa- tion ‘to the city.” Mayor Swift arose, white with anger, yet he spoke slowly. “The gentleman,” he said, “has referred to a statement, supposed to have been made by a member of the City Council, that there were four men doing the work where two only were required. In answer to that I will state that it is absolutely un- true. “He speaks of increased revenues from saloons. What is the question which pre- | sents itself to the saloon-keeper when asked to increase his license?.This is it: “Why not make the tax-dodger come to the front and pay his just proportion of the taxes? Until you do that don't go to the saloon man and ask him to pay more.“ “The present Mayor has within sixty days vetoed half a dozen ordinances passed by your representatives giving space in the streets to representative property-owners who came to the Common Council and asked for it. Who is it that comes into the Common Council and asks for such priv- ileges? Who is it who are accused of of- fering bribe’ for such franchises? It is the same ones—the prominent citizens. “I tell these questions come home! Talk a vanarchy; talk about breeding ‘the spirit of communism! more ‘than the representative citizens of Chicago? Your high-toned business men, your patriotic men, prominent citi- zens of Chicago are the men who knock at the door of the Council and ask for illegal franchises, It is not the common people, “Take the remedy, then, into your own homes, into yo circle of prominent busi- po Sa patriotism. “I refute the statement that this Govern- | Your representatives, the people whom you send to the Council.

OTTAWA, Ont., Jan. 2.—Those who have taken a census of Parliament assert that the Government will be defeated, temporar- ily,-at least, in any attempt to restere the Catholic schools of Manitoba. Parliament meets to-day and the members are all here. The session was called for the express pur- pose of settling the disturbed educational questions of the Northwest. Other cabinets of the Dominion Government have not been forced to deal with the proposition, but the issue at this time cannot be avoided. The general Domihion Government re- quested the legislature of Manitoba to effect some sort of a compromise on the public school question. The Greenway Govern- ment repdrted to Ottawa after the legisla⸗ tive session at Winnipeg that the people of Manitoba by a large majority declared their opposition to sectarian schools and rejécted any requests to concede even minor points. nder the act admitting Manitoba to the confederation of provinces it was provided that separate schools for the children of Catholics might be maintained from public moneys so long as the province chose. After twenty years of separate schools the Government of Manitoba in 1890 passed what is known as the public school act, estab- lishing the one system of popular education for the whole province and taking away Government support of parochial sch ae Sir Mackenzie Bowell, Premier of the minion, now that the question has seen transferred to the General Parliament, says his Government will stand or fall on the is- sue and will yield no point. The real fight for the schools is led by Archbishop Lange- vin, who is himself of determined, uncom- promising character. he bill which will precipitate hostilities will be introduced as soon as Parkament convenes. It provides for the restoration of Catholic schools in Manitoba, with the right to conduct religious exercises and instruc- tion therein. lark Wallace, Comptroller of Custofis and also der, Teale Grand Mas- sat of th gned from the b learned the nature of the | o be — 2.
