sessor was asked what the aggregate as
sessment OF the taxable property OF the
town amounted to--the books still bsing
in his possession-and the information
was impaired that the assessment value
would SO considerably over 100000. Five
percent Of this amonnt, the constitutional

Burns Resolves to Brave It out.
Public Expression on the Facts.


The publication Saturday in tho lSTEL-
LrGEScER Of the grave charges against
Policeman James Burns, aud the nara
ton Of the facts upon which the charges
were based, created much public interest.
A few OF Burns's friends were unwise
enough to endeavor to create the impress
sion that the INrRLLIdENcRR was led to
make the exposure by partisan motives,
and 10 advise partisan defense. A few
men whose practices and means 0; hvei-
hood bring them within the reach Of the
law and OF public condemnation have been
denouncing tho women on the false as
sumption that they had volunteered in
formation which in fact they did not even
! impart merely corTOooratiug, aud that re.
luc;antly, stories already in the posses
sion OF attaches OF the lSTELLlGENCER.
Those men who, though Democrats, are
reputable citizens, and desire the good Of
the community and the efficiency Of the
city's paid pOlic3. approved the pu5lica-
ton, and many OF them took the trouble
10 so inform persons connected with the
paper.
Chief Smith undertook a personal tour
OF ina l;ry. Whether he was actuated by
desire 10 learn the real truth or less
worthy motive is not known. At any rate
the first place he is known 10 have called

the publication, so. far as 1t affected that
house and its inmates, was strictly true.
Other members Of the police force whose
practices are as worthy OF condemnation
as Burnss naturally also desired 10 dry up
the sources OF information, but it is be-
lieved they met with poor success. =.
1t has been announced that the Council
Coamittee on Police will be called to-
gether this evening for the purpose OF in

who were imprisoned in the iron works

Saturday. The bodies were found at a
point about one mile and a half from the

the other close beside it. Had the unfortu-

milton depended upon their appearance,
their identity would never have been

their faces entirely destroyed. The
clothes were also burned from their
bodies, which were also SO badly burned

supposed that death resulted instantly as

They brought the remains near the mouth,
where they were placed in collins before
