A DEFECTIVE LAW.
AStatutory Restriction Which Will Prevent a
Fair Equalization of County Assessments.

The State Board of Equalization, after hur-
riedly reviewing the appraisements of the diff
ferent counties without reaching any definite
conclusions. yesterday morning adjourned until
Monday. at is impossible for the State board
to make anything like fair equalization of the
appraisement." said Acknowledgements Manson
to Journal reporter yesterday. in speaking of
the boards work.
"WhyF
Because the law restricts our power. We
can neither increase nor decrease the appraise-
ment of a county more than / per cent of the
amount returned, no matter how low or how
high the return may be. For instance, if the
total appraisement should be $780, 000 900, we
could not increase it to more than $404, 0O0, 900
nor reduce it lower than 1896, 100000. Under
this restriction the board has only limited
power of equalization and cannot make the APP
State Auditor Rice, in affirming what Lieuten-
ant-governor Manson had said mentioned sew
eral instances of the inequalities of the county
appraisaments which the State board will be
powerless TO adjust. In one or two of the coun-
ties the new appraisement is between 3d. 600, 900
and So 000. 900 lower than the old one and pro-
portionately far below the appraisementin neigh
boring counties. The board, however, cannot
make change, by increasing one and reducing
the other, of moro than 2 per cent, which will
fall short Of eoualzing the taxes between the
different counties.

c., H. s. ID. Stock and Management

CINCINNATI. o., July 2l-Since the change in
management of the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Day
ton railroad there have been frequent assertions
that the stock is to be watered and that Vice
president Waite, the general manager for the
past four years, is to be displaced. Concerning
these rumors, President Slayner and Vice.presi
dent Ives, who now here, say the denial can
not be too strong in regard to General Manager
Waite. He will be retained. AS to watering
the stock, they declsred that absurd. They had
fully examined the condition and value of the
road, and had no intention Of doing anything
but to let it to its full capacity and to
tinue its present management. They are salts
fed with their investment, apd wonder that the
Cincinnati holders consented to part with 1t.

press his hearers with his greatness Mr. Gault
explained that it WAS his intention to write a
letter to the World from Indianapolis and, in
speaking of the business of the city, he
would, for a stipulated consideration, mention
at length, and with favor the manufacturing es-
adjustment of Dean Brothers, giving ilustra-
tons of the article. The arm, however, eidn't
care to invest anything in the young mans
scheme and, seon after he departed, wrote to
the publisher of the World, inclosing the card
that Gault had left and inquired if he was
authorized co represent the paper. Yesterday
the following telegram was received from the
business manager of the World in answer to the
letter:
