ON THE PENINSULA.
A DAY IN COURT At THE ANCIENT
CAPITAL.
A Case of Importance to the Old
Town acknowledgements of Tax
es InvoIved-The Kings Mill Ven
ture-PersonaI.

WILLIAMSBURG, VA, March 9-(spe-
cial.)-County Court adjourned last night
Most Of the day was consumed in argu-
ment Of motion for relief from erroneous
assessment OF taxes. The facts were as
follows: w. w. Pitts, appointed by Judge
Gunter under an act approved March T.
1896, reported a number of shares of Vir-
ginia City Bank stock as in the hands OF
Josiah Ryland. of Richmond, trustee for
Eliza Baker, under the will Of w. w.
Vest. I. d. Saunders, Commissioner OF
the Revenue, extended on the Commits
sioner's book levy for the city Of VIII
liamsburg. The market value OF these
shares Of stock was assessed for state
taxes in Richmond. 1t was earnestly con-
tended by Hon. II. r. Pollard, who rep
resented the petitioner, that under the
statute law Of this State, no matter where
the stakeholder lives, the shares Of stock
are assessed where the bank is located
He relied with great confidence on a case
reported in s. Virginia, page 293, and on
case from the city of Richmond not yet
reported, except through the newspapers.
Judge Henley and Ro. r. Armistead
who represented Williamsburg, argued
that at common law the situs of the pro-
perty is at the last domicile Of the tesla
tor. and not elsewhere, citing Burruss az
Cooley on Taxation, that the statute law
changing the common law only applied TO
State taxes, that the decision in IS Viz
ginia was not in point, as the supervisors
of a county under section S33 Of the Code
could only assess property therein which
is assessed in the county with State tax,
but that the council of a city under sec
ton 1913 of the Code can assess such
other subjects as may at the time be
assessed with State taxes against persons
residing therein" And as Eliza Baker re-
sided here, she was properly assessed
with a city tax. Judge Smith seemed 10
concur in this view. but deferred his de-
cision until the next term.
This case is Of great Importance to VIII
liamsburg. as a similar motion is pending
in another case. All the representative
people Of our town were out to hear argu-
ment of counsel, and great interest was
manifested in the proceedings.
Irwin Weisiger, agent at Richmond for

sTEEL-Rsm FURRY OVER.
Railroads Have Made Their Por-
chascs-Prices VIII Advance.
(New York Times)

(NeW YORK IlmeS.)
A representative OF one of the large
western steel companies, who has been In
New York for the past fey days. says
that the furry in steel rails is practically
over. The big companies have made
about all of the contracts at low prices
that they care TO make. and rates are now
moving upward Half dozen large con-
tracts were closed last week at prices
from 80 cents TO 81 higher than the same
quality of rails could have been bought
for three weeks ago. The buyers are sup
posed TO have been waiting Tor further
reduction I'm the price. Most OF the rah-
roads. however, have completed their pur-
chases.
Standard section steel rails are quoted In
the New York market at slS and 40 AT
the mill. In Philadelphia the nominai
price Is $50, but the ra'ls are freely OF
fered for less, and in Chicago there -
little stability about the market price OF
s2l TO s2i. Several OF the western rail-
roads are still negotiating for lots OF from
5000 TO 1900 tons.

NEW YORK, March "a noteworthy

basis. For weeks past the street has
been flooded with rumors that the di-
rectors intended to cut the rate, but
operators had no idea that the manage
ment would adopt the policy announced
to-day. AS a result of the reduction
the stock fell about three points, to 50,
and then rallied slightly, on statements
by President Gould that the road du-
ring the past quarter had earned with
in $4,000 of the amount required for the
payment Of the usual IL per cent.
The unfavorable report of the Missouri
Pacific had a depressing influence on
this speciality, and the stock fell from
p Is to rs. The statement shows a
deficit for the year OF $l.26l,761, an in
crease Of S67l ,5l4, as compared with the
previous year. New Jersey Central
opened strong, but later fell to 90 3-S.
When the official announcement Of the
Lehigh Valley deal was made, the stock
recovered over a point. Lackawanna,

Interesting Experience of an In
dianapoIis Gentleman.

No trouble is more common or more mis-
understood than nervous dyspepsia. People
having il think that their nerves are 10
blame. and are surprised that they are not
cured by nerve medicine and spring reme-
dies. the real seat of the mischief Is lost

looked after
Nervous dyspeptics often do not have
any pain whatever In the stomach, nor
perhaps any of the usual symptoms OF sto-
mach weakness. Nervous dyspepsia shows
its.lf not In the stomach so much as in
nearly every other organ; In some cases
tbo heart palpitates and is Irregular IN
others the kidneys are affected: in others
tho bowels are constipated with head-
acbes. stlll others are troubled with loss
of flesh and appetite, with accumulation
of gas. sour risings and heartburn.
