VICTORIA, B. c., July 14-HoDg Kong
papers which arrived by the steamer Vic
toria, chronicle serious attack upon two
ladies of the American Presbyterian mis-
sion at Canton on June II, as the result OF
which it is stated one of the ladies may
die
Miss Bemler and Miss Halverstone are
the names of the unfortunate missionaries
of mercy whose mishap was wholly due to
their mistaken ministrations. They were
walking in Honam In the afternoon aud
came across a Chinaman, evidently in a
dying condition, by the side Of the road.
With tender care they raised him and pro-
cured for him cup of tea, while one OF
the ladies applied smelling salts TO the
mans Dostrils and conversed with him.
They so far revived him as to enable him
to walk few yards, with support, but
while conveying him on sapau, with the
intention of placing him in a hospital,
some Chinese who had gathered around
asked if anything had been administered
to him by the ''foreign women" When
they learned that something had been
done for the unfortunate man they speeCl-
IL made demonstrations of resentment,
and, unhappily, at this moment the object
of the ladies' attention expired. Instantly
they were embroiled in a wordy alterca-
tion with the surrounding mob and in a
moment or two the indignation OF the
crowd vented itself
WITH BRUTAL FORCE.
Miss Bemler escaped naked and bleed
ing, after receiving IA stab in the thigh, to
a friendly Chinaman's shop, but il looked
like desperate case for Miss HalYersUone,
who, torn and wounded, was endeavoring
to reach the customs station close at
hand. Fortunately Mr. j. Ii. Barton, one
of the officers at the station, observed her
predicament, and hurrying to the scene
was able To rescue her, he too being
wounded. Shortly afterward a party Of
customs officers rescued Miss Bemler who
was in the Chinaman's shop in momen-
tary danger of being attacked by tue en-
ragged natives outside. The mob followed,
bowling and shouting. until the mission
house was reached. Miss Bemler's wound
has since given her trouble, while her
companion has completely collapsed under
the mental strain and lies at the point of
death.
The affair has caused much excitement
in Honam, and apprehensions of further
trouble are entertained, so much so that
the British gun boat. Rather, has been
anchored close to the shore TO be ready
should emergency require it to protect the
white residents under guns. Chinese
superstitions connect the missionaries
with the appearance of the plague and
their priests are preaching determination
of white crusaders.

amount so retu Il being s64, $500.
The motion beil I AT Messrs. Hammond
and Watson voted aye, Mr.. Harmon nay.
The motion prevailed.
The following motion was made by
Mr.. Harmon, who moved it's adoption:
Whereas, 1t has come to the knovl-
edge of the Board of County Commits
sioners Of Custer County, Montana, slit
ing as Board Of Equalization. through
communication made by the State Board
- Equalization to the Clerk OF this
Board, tnat the said State Board of
Equalization has by order increased the
valuation Of cattle in Custer County.
.O32 per cent and horses of said county
.lss per cent for the year 1897; therefore
be it,
Resolved. BY this Board, that in the
estimation and opinion Of this Board
such increase is wholly unjust to the
stock ow 'rs and taxpayers of Custer
County a. 4 this Board desires To state
20 the q. urable State Board Of Equa
ilzation. Il I while stock cattle were
assessed by the Assessor in the County
of Custer f,- the year 1894 at $1,000
sixteen dollars per head. it is represented
to this Ioard, on sufficient evidence.
which the Board wholly credits and now
believes. that such assessment was too
high, and that the same ought To be IN
the matter Of equalization decreased in
stead Of increased. This Board has
abundant evidence now before il that
sales Of cattle have been made in this
County during the current three months
past at sli.lN to $1,000 per head. to be
delivered by the seller. The highest
price obtained for any cattle sold in this
County. So far az the evidence appears
before this Board. is $1,000 per head. and
the lowest price that has been given is
SliIo. the seller in every case to gather
ana deliver the cattle, the cost of which.
according To the evidence before tins
Board, IL from 200 to $500 per head.
These are the prices for which cattle
have been sold in Custer county this
season. In no case has this Board been
informed Of any sale higher than SlG.OO
per head, and 10 this price, as before
stated.is attached the condition. the sci
Ter delivering the cattle at the cost as
above stated. so that this Board is en-
tirely convinced that the assessment Of
SlG.uO az made by the assessor Of this
sessment ought To be reduced rather
than increased. In relation to the mat
ter uf horses. this Board can state To the
State Board Of Equalization. what is
perhaps generally known. that there is
almost no sale at all for horses in this
section Of the state. at any price: such
stock almost literally has no marketable
value at all.
In view Of these facts. this Board re-
spectfully request the Honorable State
Board of Equalization not 10 increase the
valuation on either cattle or horses in
this county. but to at least leave the
valuation Of such property where II was
placed by the assessor Of the county.
which. IN the judgment Of this Board.
as already stated. was too high.
