ed to do this for a double reason, viz :
That the the assessments in the first
place, they claim. are too low, but
principally because the State Treas.
ury is bankrupt.

days of Improvement and of promise,
the fever situation, on the face of the
record, took somewhat of turn to-
day. For forty hours there had been
no death, and yesterday, the number
of cases had shown material falling Off
from the day before. Early this morn

began to come into the board of fshealth
office with considerable rapidity, and
by o'clock there had been fifteen
cases reported, and by Z o'clock to-
night all previous records of this sea-
son had been broken, so far as new
cases were concerned. In a few hours
three deaths had also been reported to
the board The physicians were not
at a loss to explain the increase in
cases. They took the view that it
might be expected that numerous cases
would still continue daily to be report
ed.
DR.. Olliphant said tonisflt The stern
enforcement of the law requiring aH
the physicians to report promptly both
suspicious and actual cases of yellow

built bridges and railroads and has pro-
jected other improvements that have
endeared him to the agricultural pop

money on school houses than on SOL

policy, but has given Costa Rica just

Big Hotel Blown Over.
Forty Men Buried in the Ruins
and Two Taken Out Dead.

CHARLEVOIX, Mich, Oct. 5.-The
big hotel at Lindsay Park, which was
to have been the largest summer hotel
at the Northern Michigan resorts, fell
with a crash this afternoon, and is a
total wreck. It was all enclosed and
rooted, but the lower stories, it is as
serted, were not properly braced, and
the fierce gale striking on the 44O feet
of side wall caused the most exposed
end to waver and gathering momentum
as it fell the huge mass rose like 6.
wave and sank with a crash which
was heard for a mile, burying forty
workmen in a mass of broken timber
and splintered boards. In a few mo-
ments hundreds of willing hands were
chopping and cutting away the wreck
age, and in short time the injured
were being taken out and the wounded
cared for. 1t was a terrible spectacle,
and the cries of the imprisoned men
caused the rescuers to work like de-
mons.
In an hour all were out. Pierce Ken
dali, of Charlevoix, and Guy Hamil-
ton, of Grand Rapids, are dead. The
badly injured are: Charles Heintzle-
man, James Gillett, Sy Cain, C. w.

MUST PAY DUTY.
TapiOca Flour to Be Assessed ms
Starch, Says the Court.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Oct. 5,-ThA
United States circuit court nf apneaIs
has handed down decision of great
Importance, inasmuch as by it the rev.
enue of the government will be in
creased many hundreds of thousands
of dollars per annum. The case was to
determine the disputed point as to
whether Tapioca -four should be ad-
mitted free of duty as such under the
Mckinley bill, or whether it should be
required to pay duty of cents per
pound as starch. This flour is used
almost exclusively in all the Chinese
laundries il. the United States, because
of its cheapness as starch, and it has
been the most formidable obstacle to
the starch manufacturing industry in
the United States. By the decision Of
the court that it must pay a duty,
that obstacle will be removed.
