Differs With the Acknowledgement

A short time ago, says the Argus,
Acknowledgement Spencer rendered an
opinion to the state auditor, who
sent it out in a circular to all the
county auditors, instructingEthem that the
former practice of county commissioners
rebating taxes for various reasons, was
illegal, and that reductions or attachments
could only be made by the equalization
board. Yesterday the petition of G. Card
ner for an abatement on account of an err
roneous assessment came before the board
of county commissioners here, and they
referred the matter to State Attorney Rose
for his opinion as to wether they would be
bound by the attorney-generaPs opinion as
stated in the state auditors's circular.
Mr.. Rose gave his opinion verbally. the
effect being that with all Difference to the
attorney-gen he thought it absurd that
where the board knew that an assessment
was erroneous, they should be compelled
to put the county to the expense of defend
ing suit in the district court, instead of
abating the taxes as formerly. He would
advise them in such case to go ahead and
abate the erroneous tax.
This was accordingly DONE

Three Lives We're Lost.

WATERFOWL, S. D., June 2.-This af-
ternoon at $3.50 small funnel-shaped
cloud suddenly appeared from the south
and soon developed into hurricane. 1t
appeared close to the ground and in its
whirling motion people at once saw it
was dreaded cyclone. The roar that
accompanied it was like huge fire snap
ping and cracking in it's onward course
everything that came in it's path. For
tunately it struck the city on the ex-
treme eastern limit, where the buildings
we're scattered, and the whole city is
thankful to-nigh6 that it came no closer.
Six barns along an alley we're demol-
ished. The path of the storm was about
100 feet wide and it was miraculous that
not single house in the city limits was
in it's way. Horses were lifted from the
ground, hurled into the air and sent
sprawling to the earth. Wagons we're
taken up bodily and hurled to atoms.
Five miles northeast of here two houses
and three barns we're literally carried
away. Debris from the storm as it left
the city spreads along nearly mile. AT
Waverly, twelve miles northeast, two
coal sheds were ruined and the brick
smokestack of the roller mills was fiat
tened to the ground. o. P. Chandler and
his son we're pinned under a wrecked
barn, but were only slightly hurt. Three
people we're killed at HAZEL, sixteen
miles southwest, and the storm was very
severe in that vicinity. No other fatali-
ties are reported. Heavy rain and hail
followed, but did no damage.

press, was recently carried away to the
mountains by band of brigands who

$4,000 asked for by the outlaws. AS
all the passengers trken by the outlaws
to their retreat in the mountains are
Germans, the porte has promised
the German government he will at once
take active measures to punish the brig
ands severely, and troops have already
been sent in pursuit of the robbers.
When the news of this kidnapping was
conveyed to Chancellor Won Caprivi he
Immediately telegraphed to Herr Won
Radowitz, the German ambassador, to
advance the amount demanded by the
brigands and it is claimed the porte will
refund the money.

The Kansas Crops.

KANSAS Cry, June LIT has been
raining throughout Kansas and Missouri
almost continuously for twenty four
hours. The reports from these Estates
say the rain is check on the ravages of
the Hessian fly and the chinch bug in
Kansas. Missouri reports no bugs, and
the wheat crop is said to be exceptionally
promising. Corn is trife backward in
Missouri, but no damage has been done
to it. In Kansas the outlook for wheat
was never better. There has been some
little damage to crops in the southern
counties from insects, but the present
heavy rains are expected to both kill the
bugs and improve the crops. The gen.
eral manager of the largest wheat buy
ing firm in the west predicts the largest
crop in the history of the state. The
corn crop in Kansas gives exceptional
promise for a big yield, the recent
weather conditions being particularly
faVOrably for it.

CHICAGO. June A gigantic deal, the,
negotiations toward which have been car
ried on for the past week, was consum-
mated this evening at the Auditorium.
By the papers which we're signed. the
whisky trust has at last acquired out
right the only remaining important anti.
trust establishment in the west, the great
Chicago distilleries owned by H. Schu-
feldt & Co. and the Calumet Distillingr
company. The Schufeldt distillery was
partly burned yesterday, and for the at
tempted blowing up of which by dyna-
mite some weeks ago Geo. J. Gibson, Sec
rotary of tile whisky trust, is now under
indictment. It is thought by many that
this transaction will materially affect the
Gibson case by removing any vindictive'
feeling toward him entertained by the.
Schufeldts. The news of the purchase:
was surprise, although rumors, which
were denied by the owners of the pur-
chased distilleries, have been persistent
ly in circulation. The sale Of both plants.
included the real estate, machinery,
stock of goods, patents, trade marks,
brands and right to continue use of the
names. In connection with the purchase
the whisky trust directors disclaim any
intention to advance prices. They abso-
lutely refuse to give the purchase price,.
stating merely that the purchase was for
cash and at figures alike satisfactory to-
sellers and purchasers. The price is,,
however, known to have been fully COM
mensrrate with the gigantic character of
the properties purchased, probably in.
volving the transfer of about $2,O0O,000.
