MAY SUE THE COMPANY.

Lewiston, December A Waterville
despatch to the Journal says that there
Is talk of the city bringing suit against
the Maine Water company over unpaid
taxes owed by the Maine Water company,
who want to cut down their valuation to
It's old figure; as a starter in this direc
ton, Hon. E. f. Webb for this company,
has mado tender of some $500 in gold and
a bill of about 1892 for water service to
Collector Knauff, who, upon advice of the
city solicitor refused the same, upon the
ground that it was not in accordance
with agreement. etc The money was then
placed at the Merchants national bank,
subject to call of the collector.
1t seems that the Maine Water company
is taxed as personal property, its by
drants, pipes, ETC., but from recent
decision of the courts these properties
should go under the head of real estate
and SO the assessors have had to rebate
the tax from personal property and
charge it up to the account Of real estate
This tax is for $l,700 and for this the
Maine Water company will he sued.

A RAILROAD WAR

San Francisco, December 4.-Manager
). A. Fillmore of the Southern Pacific,
declares that hereafter western bound
trains on his road will not try to make
up lost time made by eastern connec-
tions. He said that several roads run
ming out OF Chicago advertise almost i'm
possible schedules, and that his trains
have to walt from two to three hours at
Ogden for late trains and then have to
make up the lost time between Ogden
and the coast. He says that this fast
work is dangerous and that ne will force
eastern connecting roads to change their
time tables or else he will hereafter pull
west bound passenger trains out of Og-
den on schedule time and leave the be-
lated trains of other roads to wait in or
der and take the full blame for,their
inability to make the runs from Chicago
On advertised time.
