MAY BOYCOTT THE ROAD.
That Will Be the Next Move of the
knights.

NEW YORK, Aug. 25.-Itis now stated
here that possibly the next move of the
Knights would be to boycott the road.
In case boycott is declared it is also
stated that the interstate commerce
commission will undoubtedly be re-
quested to investigate the matter with a
view Of proceeding against Mr.. Powder
ly, the general executive board and the
master workmen of the district and
local assemblies of the Knights of
Labor. Under the national conspiracy
law this can be done, as under the first
section it is misdemeanor for an Or
ganiZation OF any body or men to inter-
fere with the course of trade and traffic
of a corporation. Mr.. Webb furniS he'd
the reporters with copies OF the
affidavits of John Briggs and Rod
erick q. Pierce, the assistant fore
men. in which they deny the
statements contained in the affidavits of
John Paul, Frank Saloon. John Provi-
denza and Mark Paul, to the effect that
Pierce accepted money for employing
men. Both assert that Pierce was not
authorized to and never did employ
men. Pierce says in his affidavit that
he joined the Knights of Labor on the
representation that it was mutual aid
and benefit association; that when he
found out its true character he resigned
from it. and that the action of these
men in trying to injure his reputation
was prompted by motives of revenge.

MONEY is WHAT'S WANTED.
North DakOta's Board of Equali-
cation Fixing the Tax Levy.

Special to the Globe.
BISMARCK, N. D., Aug. 25.-The state
board of equalization will probably COM
plete its labors tomorrow. There has
been considerable discussion over the
fixing of the values of lands
in the state. The board has
decided upon an increase in some
counties ranging from 10 to 100 per
cent. The average value or the North
ern Pacific's lands-2. 100000 acres-is
about $1.30. A compromise was effect
ed on the roadbed, etc. The valuation
is placed at $500 for main line and
$500 for branches. This makes the
company pay taxes Oh a valuation of
about 81, 500, 600. IL is not yet deter
mined what the levy will be. but it is
estimated that under the agreement
the Northen Pacific will pay about
Sl65.000. The company also enters
into an agreement to waive any technical
defects in assignment and agrees to pay
the amount of the state tax even in
face of probable absence of any di-
rect authority to make the levy. The
proposition of taxing the track was
made by the board and accepted
by the company. and it as
we'll as the valuation of the
lands is said to be fair to the state and
company. The Manitoba pays on the
gross earnings, which last year yielded
the state about $1,000 mile. 1t is be-
lieyed after the equalization of taxes
has been effected horizontal raise of
10 per cent will be made in order to
admit of sufficient revenue being raised
under three-mill rate to run
the state. The board decided to
cancel all deductions on account
of credits on personal property. as some
counties did not return any credits.
Grand Forks county returned nearly
s1,000,000 deductions, and this action of
the board will probably be severely
criticised in that county, while other
counties will be satisfied and insist that
it is the proper equalization.

SWARMING WITH THIEVES,
The Black Hills Overrun With an
Army. of Tramps.

Special to the Globe.
CHAMBERLAIN, S. D., Aug 25.-Re-
cent arrivals from the Black Hills
country state that laborers are pouring
into the country from all directions, the
extension of several lines of railroad
there being the attraction. Thousands
of men are at work, and there is also
very large number of men who are idle
from various causes-Some not wishing
work, and others who are looking for
soft ''snaps," which, of course, they are
unable to secure. This large crowd of
unemployed men will yet make serious
trouble for the Black Hills authorities,
unless the officers take prompt meas
ureS to drive the tramps from the hills.
For years the Black Hills enjoyed free
dom from petty thieyery andicrimes of
like character. To-day the country is in
tested with gang of thieves and burg
lars who conduct their operations with
startling boldness. Burglaries and
attempts at burglary have been
numerous of late in ali the towns, and
the perpetrators have so far escaped de-
lection. The thieves are becoming
holder in their work every day, and
though there has not yet been any
bloodshed or any serious loss, it is in
the nature of things that both will Oc-
cur soou unless prompt action is taken
by the officers.

The Situation in Chicago Stock

CHICAGO, Aug. 25.-The situation at

aspect. This afternoon about o'clock
the striking engineers and tiremen pre-
pared to resume work. having
come to an agreement with their employ
erS. Before they could turn a wheel
however, the switchmen, who had held
all impromptu meeting, and decided to
demand an increase of two cents an
hour, marched in body to the train
master and presented their new sched
ule. 1t was referred to Chairman
Royce, of the yard association, and by
him to the general managers Of the
roads. About o'clock they were
informed that their demands were
refused. They at once voted to
strike. Consequently the condition of
affairs at the yards is not improved.
The Switchmen declare they will stay
out for year if their demands are not
granted, and they expect the support of
the switchmen on the connecting roads
and of the engineers and firemen. 1t
was not determined tonight just when
the railroads will send new crews into
the yards, but trouble is bound to follow
if they attempt to use new men.
