action OF the County Board OF Taxation in
imposing an increase of per cent the city's
valuation A meeting was held in Mayor Fag!n's
office In the city Hall President Albert II. Shape
acted as chairman and Thomas b. Usher as clerk
Assistant Prosecutor OF the Pleas Joseph "
Noonan appeared counsel for the County Tax
Board. while Corporation Counsel Minturn repre-
sented the city. one OF the first points brought out
by the investigation the fact that. although
represented by counsel. neither the members OF the
County Sbard nor their clerk had considered II
worth their while to appear. and that none OF the
members Of the Jersey CITY Tax Board, the de-
PENDANTS in the case. had responded to the
subpoenaes served upon them yesterday. Mr. Noonan
admitted after the meeting had been opened and
after considerable time had elapsed the Increase
Of per cent placed upon TIobokens valuation. Cor
poration Counsel Minturn. in behalf OF the city
then read a reply 10 the points advanced In the
County Boari by Mr.. McLain. It upon these
representations OF differentiation throughout the
increase for Jersey City's benefit Mr.. Min,urn
said that one Of the most important charges made
In rc.ation TO the river front property. II al
legged by the County Tax Board that river front
per per, foot while similar property in Hob9ken had
turn proved that this was not the case The state
records showed that the Pennsylvania Railroad
slips In Jersey CITY with forty feet frontage are
only assessed $1,000 while those Of the H5bok n
Ferry Company in Ioboken. with twenty feet less
frontage. are assessed at $4,000. Jersey CITY had
said Mr. Mnturn and II was TO cover such de-
hcienc!es that iioboken had been mulcted" As
SCISSOR jane T. DolIari submitted OF fig
ures and statements to prove that there had been
no approximation In Hohoken. Mr. Dollard said
that the had made his assessments from his knowl-
edge OF the value OF real estate. Oscar Fremme
VINO Is one OF the largest owners OF meadow lots
thr county made a statement concerning their
values lie sad that meadow lots unlmproved were
not worth more than $50 apiece The entire session
OF the board was devoted 70 hearing protests from
pfoPerty-o"ners against the per cent increase as
ordered by the County Tax Board. The absence OF

THE PRINTING OFFICE SITE.
Surprise Mt the Vote of the Senate
Yesterday.

1t developed today that the vote of yester-
day afternoon by which the amendment
providing for the Malone lot was tackled
onto the public printing bill was a genuine
surprise to those Senators who favored the
bill reported by the committee on public
buildings and grounds. Senator Vests sur
prise indeed, was such as to cause him to
express a doubt as to the regularity of the
pairs. 1t is said that he had made a COM
plete canvass of the Senate, showing a ma
jority of three for the committees bill,
which provides for the enlargement of the
present site. When, the vote was taken,
however, this majority of three melted down
to minority of three, and the Senator and
his colleagues who favor the bill are some
what at a loss to understand just how this
happened. The vote on the bill as recorded
finally was u to %, but Senator Harris
had changed his vote from the negative to
the affirmative in order to move a recon-
sideration, and so the real votes were 20 to
%. Senator White of California was placed
by Mr. Vest on his own side in his tally
and he was confident that the Senator
would so vote But he was announced yes
terday as being paired against the bill.
Under all the circumstances, therefore, the
friends of the committees bill are not dis
couraged, but, on the contrary, are hopeful
that Senator Harris motion to reconsider
will be carried and that the amendment will
be rejected. Should this be done there is
little doubt that the committees PROPOSE
ton will succeed, for it is conceded that the
Malone lot has more friends than any of
the other rival sites.
On the other hand it is generally thought
that if the bill should be amended in the
direction taken yesterday it will be almost
certain to be fatal to the final passage of
any bill through Congress for this purpose
at this session. This was foreshadowed yes
terday by Mr.. Vest in his speech, when he
said that he sure that the House would
Eot accept such an amendment. 1t is bare
ly possible that, in view of the fact that
an amendment of any sort to the Senate
bill is likely to embarrass and probably
defeat the bill in the House, the friends
of the Malone lot may combine with such
Senators as favor some other site than that
proposed by the committee. No subject, not
of national Importance, has so stirred up
the Senate as has this one during the past
few dayS

AFTER THE STORM.
The Recent Blizzard in the Northwest
Extremely Severe

ST. PAUL, Mimi. March 23.-Au over
poth Dakotas, across the northern mart
OF Minnesota and along the shores of Lake
Superior, the storm, which is now practi-
cally over, was the most severe. Duluth
was cut off by wire for time Yesterday
and business there and at West Superior
mas suffered greatly. The snow fall in
South Dakota has been the heaviest and the
roads were caught rather unprepared
Aberdeen, 5. D., reports drifts from eight
10 ten feet high. but as the weather there
Is warm the snow will not damage the
wheat.
Pierre reports the storm as abating at
last and the weather warm. The snow is
drifted from ten to fifteen feet high.
CHEYENNE, Wyo., March 23-The storm
OF the past two days has been the worst
experienced in this section since 90 The
first mail and passenger train sent east
since the storm began left here at ! o'clock
yesterday. The road is now open ana ali
possible.
Trains on the roads in northeastern
wyoming and Nebraska have been de-
layed for two days and no attempt will
be made to get them through until the
storm abateS. The snow is drifted thirty
feet high. The loss to stock men is very
heavy, as feed has been scarce on the
rarge during the winter and cattle were
IN no condition TO stand a blizzard
Ihere are rumorS from Buffalo and Iar-
der tfat several men who were caught I'm
the storm in charge IF cattle were frozen
to death.
OMAHA, Neb., March 23.-Rairoads in
the Storm-blockaded district are making
all haste to take advantage of the cessa-
ton of the snowfall to clear their tracks
They have gotten out snow plows and
shoVeling gangs and hope to get the tracks
clear within another twenty-four hours.
The worst blockade reported is from
Chadron, on the Elkhorn, where several
trains are showed in from six to ten miles
from town. The track has not been used
since Monday.
The train reached Chadron today after
being in bank thirty hours. Some fears
are expressed for the passenger train
which went west from Chadron into
Wyoming on Tuesday and has not since
been heard from. In the Black Hills the
lines are completely tied up. Western Ne
braska is also blockaded, but the weather
was clear last night
