Commissioners Agree on a Division of
Oneida, Iron and Villas Counties.
MADISON, Wis, Sept. 11.-By chapter
$50, of the laws of 1893, the county OF
Villas was created out of Oneida County
and four towns in Oneida County were
made part of Iron County, which was
also created by the same legislature.
Under this law the Governor appointed
three commissioners, A. Il. Bushnell, OF
Madison; Paul D. Carpenter, of Mil
waukee, and Joseph L. Huntington, of
Delton, to affect settlement between
Oneida County and the detached por-
tons. That commission has made It's
report to the governor. 1t concludes
its review Of the state of affairs found
as follows:
We find the assessed and equalized valu-
alton Of Oneida County, as shown by the
records in the office of the county clerk, to
be in 1892, 81, 945, 1873. We find the assessed
and equalized valuation of the several parts,
as divided by chapter 150 laws of 1898, to
be as follows: Oneida County, $1,736, 1884,
Villas County, 81, 153, 724; four towns a, at
tached to Iron County, $54,545 We
to be as follows Oneida County,
1897 per cent; Villas County, 1917 per
cent; Iron County, 1.S5 per cent. We find
the assets of Oneida County, before dlvis-
ION, W De SoO,OZtUZ anu Jlle lldDlllllCo G-t,

shall receive 56.97 per cent. of the assets and
pay this per cent of the liabilities; Villas
County shall receive 1917 per cent. OF the
assets and pay this per cent. OF the liza
bilities; Iron County shall receive | 8 IS
per cent. of the assets and pay 1.S5
per cent. of the liabilities. At the close of
business on April IA, 1898, Oneida County
owed the state of Wisconsin S. 1853. 20,
which is apportioned among the three
counties on the same basis as above, Oneida
County to pay So, 1917; Villas County to
pay s., 297 .04, and Iron County 108.49.
The final results are follows: Oneida
County pays to Villas County $4,364.12 and
conveys to her SAL. 20 acres of tax title lands
at so cents per acre, $1,000 and assigns to

New YORK, Sept. 1.-THE morning
cable communication with Brazil was
resumed for few hours, when it
was again suspended by orders of
the Brazilian government. r. St.
G.. Walker, superintendent Of the
Coffee Exchange, said that the
interruption of intercommunicatlon
with Brazil must tend to injure the cot
fee trade every day it lasts and that If 1T
continues any length of time it would
inflict serious damage.
Secretary of State Gresham telegraphs
this afternoon to the secretary of the
Coffee Exchange: "No specific discrim-
nation against American cities or trade
in Brazil being alleged, an indie
pendent protest against suspension
of cable messages would be of
doubtful utility if the measure
has been adopted for defensive pur-
poses. But if desired by New York
merchants, Minister Thompson can be
instructed to concur in general diplo-
matte remonstrance against this bur
densome interference with the foreign
commerce of Brazil"
