year, aad registered. This provision
led to u wild scramble at first and then

tax collectors offices. He could issue
only about 200 receipts day, and as the
registration closed Saturday, it was in
eyitabIe that many citizeus would be
shut out
The two factions hired two gangs OF
toughs, each numbering about one hun

whites and negroes Of the city. These
men we're paid from S. to $40 day.
To each was given list OF six names,

each other in front Of and inside the
court house, hundreds OF citizens gath.
ering from all parts OF the city daily to
witness the big mills.
For two weeks at least no citizen paid
taxes for himself, all entrusting their
names and money to the hired heelers.
At times nea rly the entire police force
OF the city had to be called out TO es.
tablish order, and for over a week the
presence OF about forty policemen has
been constantly required at the tax
collectors office. The armies oil heel
ers were fed at the rival headquarters,
where many ofthem remained all night,
going out early each morning to resume
the battle and at the court house where
beer, whisky. coffee and sandwiches
were given them. Two or three times
dava number OF the workers akipped
with their lists and money detranchis-
ing many citizens.
It is calculated that the cost OF keep.

last few days had been increased TO
about 300. to fight for pool tax receipts.
was over $4,000. They were disbanded
early this morning. The next legisla-
ture will be appealed to to amend the
law so as to prevent any repetition ol
these scenes.

THOSE ATROCITIES

Said TO Have Been Committed by tho
Japanese at Port Arthur-Reports Dis
eonnted.
WASHINGTON, D. G. Dec. 16.-A tele-
gam has been received at the Japanese
legation in relation to the atrocities al
leged to have been committed by jap
inese at the capture OF Port Arthur.
The government at Toxic is not yet in
possession OF full details Of the affair,
but the information already at hand
shows conclusively that some OF the re.
ports which have been circulated con-
cerning the conduct OF the Japanese
troops are exaggerated and misleading,
II there was any unnecessary blood
'hsd, the Japanese cannot but believe
hatthere must have been some melting
cause Tor the behavior OF the Japanese
troops. which has hitherto been most
exemplary, at times under circum-
stances calculated 10 excite feelings OF
The deepest resentment and animosity.
1t is known TO be fact that the great
majority Of those Chinese who were
killed at Port Arthur were not peaceful!
inhabitants, but Chinese soldiers dis
eaised IN civilian dress. Most OF the
Inhabitants fed from the place several
days before Its capture, and at the
present time have returned. and are
pursuing their ordinary avoCatiOns
without moiestation or restraint. The
Japanese government and it's repre-
'sntatlyes have no disposition to con-
ceal any OF the facts. but on tho con-
uary have caused tho strictest investi-
cation, the results OF which will
10 promptly made public.
