IMPORTANT CASES.
Banks Suing For Money Paid Under
Protest-Two Gases Tried To-

An interesting legal question was I'M
der discussion before Judge Rolapp
yesterday. This was the two cases
against the county collector by two of
the banks of Ogden whose taxes were
paid under protest. 1t appears that af
ter mailing the first set of notices the
board of equalization raised the as
sessed valuation Of the banks. swelling
the entire roll for Weber county by
over $1,000 All the banks paid their
taxes under protest and two-the Og-

Trust bank-began actions within the
required six months. These cases We're
both heard together. H. H. Henderson
appearing for the Ogden State bank,
Richards G. Mcmillan for the Loan and
Trust, while Peery and Smith repre-

that no due notice had been given them
of the proposal of the board to raise
the valuation. 1t developed that notices
had been sent but that they had
reached the banks after the board of
equalization had adjourned sine die
They also claimed that by the assessor
falling to make certain deductions
double assessment resulted. The county

Gus victims mourning the loss OF their

He was finally arrested in Victoria,

NEW KIND OF BREAD.
Ranch Cook Uses Arsenic Instead of
Baking Powder.

Oakland. Cal. May 2S.-Fred Beeson,
an employee on the ranch Of Harry
Morse. at Sunol, used arsenic instead
of baking powder in making a batch
of bread yesterday. Beeson is dead,
another man is dying and several
others are dangerously i'll.
Beeson was a new hand on the ranch.
1t was found necessary to secure a
cook and Beeson was asked if he could
fill the position. He said ne could do
plain cooking. He was put to work in
the kitchen and his first work was to
bake uo a batch of bread and biscuits
for the evening meal.
When looking around the kitchen for
soda, he found some white powder in
a baking powder can. He assumed that
it was soda and he added three heap
ing spoonsful to the dough. Beeson
set aside some of the dough for bis
cults and then baked a batch of bread.
The dinner was served and Beeson
and one other man partook heartily of
the biscuits. The others ate more spar
ingly with the result stated above. An
investigation proved the powder used
was arsenic.
