IN ASSESSORS.
Queer contras's shown by Rsturns on
Mining Properly


Denver, Sept. 21.--It has never been
the policy of the Colorado legislatures,
says the Republican, to make the mines
Of the state feel the taxes, and on the
contrary a liberal attitude toward the
mining industry has invariably been
taken In preparing laws for the assess
ment OF such property. Under the pres
ent law the assessor Of each county Is
expected to reckon as property subject
to taxation one-flfth the gross value of
all ore produced by each mine In his
territory
In the list given below the value of
improvements Is included In the figures
returned by the several assessors with
this 20 per cent. Of the gross production
from the mines OF the country. A

been some very careless assessors In

Gossip About the Trouble Brings Ont

st. Louis, Nov. 1I,-The military COM

countercharges involving Mai. Robert II.
White and Capt. {. b. Ewing.
Maj, White is the rabking surgeon Il the
post and Capt. Ewing has been engaged on
special medical duty. The strained rela-
tions that have long existed between the
two doctors culmina,cdsin a rupture two
weeks ago. Isafs.s
Capt Ewing made a written request for
permission to be absent from the post sew
eral evenings each week, giving as reason
desire TO attend course OF lectures in
st. Louis.
Maj. White indorsed the application as
follows:
Yes, let Capt. Ewing GO. He is cf no
account anyhow. He is Of no assistance
to me. He is Of NJ account as a doctor.

The comma ndant in granting the leave

in sending the following note 10 the ma ior:
You are another! You are no good
doctor yourself. You need lectures badly.
The Officers and their families are always
eager for my services. l am a good doc
tor and an honest man. You have been
misusiDg Government property for three
years"
Counterchargcs were at once filed by
each officer with Gen. Merritt at Chicago,
and court-martial will soon be held.
A startling addcnda to the counter
charges filed by Mai. White and Capt.
Ewing was yesterday exploded.
II is stated upon indisputable authority
that Lieut.. Col. ". II. Whiteside, command
ing the Fifth Cavalry. and formerly sta
toned at the barracks, has formally pre-
ferred charges against Gen. Henry, pres
ent comma nlant. When Col. whiteside
was relieved of command of the post n in
tcrview with Gen. Henry appeared in
local newspaper, and upon this the colonel
bases his charges.
There is still more difference between

rect attention TO this pretty kettle of fish.
Capt. Jones. of the Third Cavalry, and
Capt. George II. Hunter, of the same regi-
ment, are at the stage of coolness that
calls for the mediation OF friends or the
field at daylight.
Yesterday evening 1t was also learned
that one OF the specifications made by
Capt. Ewing in his charges against Mai.
White was that the latter had falsified
reports and acquisitions for horse feed and
subsistence. st. Louisans have just learned
that they have a military volcano in their
midst.

new TURKISH MINISTRY
1t Is Cordially Hated by Everybody
Except Sultan's Close Followers.
Asserted They Are Mere Puppets of
the Sultan and That Munster of
the Interior Is IL ScoundreI.

Constantinople, Nov. 1.-The recent
change in The ministry here has not been
conducive OF any better feeling in politi-
cal and diplomatic circles.
In fact, thc new ministers, generally
spca king, are looked upon askancc, as
their regulations give no promise OF any
better government ti:an that hitherto rul-
ing. I'm fact, the members ofthc new cabinet
are nothing more than puppets OF the Sultan,
and whatever he wills will be without
questioning law TO item.
Hall RaIat Pasha, the new grand vizier I.
was formerly minister Of the interior, and
il is openly charged that while occupying
that position he fostcrcd tho massacre OF
Christians.
Abdurralaman Paslil, minister or JUS
ticc, once held the Grand Vzierate, but
was dismissed on a days notice for Iy-
ing.
Menduh Pasha, minister OF the interior
is reported TO be a downright sCoundrel.
There is the strongest feeling here against
the Sultan, due among things. TO his
choice OF ministers. IL was thought that
possibly an attempt might De maze on the
life of his majesty as he went from the
palace othc mosque in the c.rcmC ny KIN wn
as the selamlik.
The usual large number of guards who
keep the route when the Sultan goes to
the. mosque to offer his prayers was greatly
streng thcned. and a close watch was Kept
on every side for suspicious characters by
the police and gendarmes.
There is no doubt that the empire is PASS
ing through one of the most critical peri
DDS that has threatcncd il for years. The
heir TO the throne has no better policy than
the Sultan, so no advantage would be
gained by dcposing the latter in favor OF
the former.
The young Turkey party aim at the re
moval of both and the substitution in the
place of Reshad Effendi, the heir to the
throne. of a healthy minded agriculturist,
who dislikes intrigue.
Advices from the interior show that great
destitution is prevailing, and that the suf-
fering from this cause surpasscs that aris-
ing from the massacreS.
A very large number OF persons are home
less and without food and there is no doubt
that the suffering will increase during the
winter. In several districts famine is
anticipated.

As1ATIc STATION CHANGES.
Rear Admiral Carpenter Relieved
From Command,

Rear Admiral Carpenter Relieved
From Command.
Orders have been issued by Secretary
Herbert relieving Rear Admiral Carpenter
from command of the Asiatic station.
This action was takenta6 Admiral Carpen-
ter's request, as his wife is Ill and he
wanted to be with her.
His place will be filled by Commodore
F. y.-McNair, at present president of the
naval examining and retiring board, who
will leave this city for Ms station. on the
3Oth instant.
secrctary Herbert said last night that
Rear Admiral Carpenter would have been
detached under ordinary circumstances
just before his retirement, which Will take
place IN February next. In the meantime,
after he reaches this fountry, he Will be
placed on waiting orders.
During the period he has been in Command
of the Asiatic station, about one year,
Admiral Carpenter has done a good deal
toward protecting the lives OF American
citizens and missionaries where safety has
been. jeopardized by the serious recent
troubles In China.
The cruiser Olympia, which has arrived
at Yokohama, will be the new flagship of
the Asiatic station, relieving the Baltimore
from that duty. The latter vessel will
. return to San Francisco, she having been
absent from this country for more than
two years.
After an extensive overhauling, 1t is
said, the Baltimore may be assigned as the
flagship OF the Pacific station, in place
of the Philadelphia. Besides the Olympia,
the Asiatic fleet consists Of the Charles
ton. Machias,. Concord, Yorktown, Petrei
Detroit, and Monocacy. The Monocacy>is
the only old vessel in the list, but she is of
light draught and is very servireable in
shallow waters. The Olympia willbe the
best type of the up-tu-date cruisers in that
part or the world and will no doubt attract
much attention.

RED HAT OF SAToLLI.
1t Has Brim Which Measures Six
Feet Acres

Among Catholics just now there is a
great deal of talk concerning the hat OF
the new Cardinal Satolli.
The material of the hat is cardinal
beaver. 1t is round In shape and in strik-
ing contrast to the immense flat brim,
which measures six feet across, is small,
conical shaped crown, quite too small,
apparently, to fit anybudy's head. But
that is another queer feature Of the red
nat. 1t is not intended TO fit anyDody's
head. The sole use to which IL is put other
than symboliziEg the distinction OF its re-
cipient at the time it is bestowed is 10 be
hung in the cardinals church after his
death.
A cardinal wears three colors-cardinal.
violet and old rose-and he must have
complete outfit In each of these coiors. The
different colors are prescribed for different
seasons of the ecclesiastical year. The red
is worn throughout the year except during
the penitential season of Lent and Advent,
when the violet is Worn. except the third
Sunday of Advent and the fourth Sunday
of Lent. when the old rose is substituted.
