This week is published the tabulated
abstract of the taxes levied in Cavalier
county for the present year. 1t is com.
piled by Co. Treasurer Robertson and
published in accordance with the law.
In it is shown the average rate of levy for
the different state and county funds,
the acreage, value of county, town and
village property and the assessed amount
that each township and town has to con-
tribute for all purposes this year. Every
owner of property will find much therein
of more than passing interest.
While the blowing has been pretty
we'll completed in some portions Of the
county a large amount of spring
blowing for wheat will have to be done
if the acreage of wheat is to be as large
next year a. it was tn past. There is
another thing that will tend to prevent
the large acreage Of wheat hat prevailed
during the past year and that is the low
prices of that commodity which prevailt
at present and is likely to continue, at
least until after seeding in the spring
From these two causes we would draw
the inference that there would be a de-
cline in the acreage for another year
Last spring good prices were current ano
almost every available acre was sown tt
wheat and other crops, Notably that Of
barley was cut to the lowest INIT known
to us for years.

REPORT THAT SHE HAS LOST

Twelve Vessels are Said to Have Been

The Report Not Verified.

CAPE HAYTIEN, May 21.-It is ru-
mored here that naval battle took
place yesterday in the Windward Pas
sage, off Mole st. Nicholas. Accord
ing to the report brought by pas
senger who arrived on a coasting ves-
sci from Port de PaiX, there were
twelve Spanish war vessels sunk, but
only two of the American vessels
were disabled. have been so far uni
able to confirm the rurnors.
1t is reported here from a vague
source that cannonading was heard
off the mile to the northward, ceasing
at nightfall, and that the firing was
renewed early today and continued
until noon.
WASHINGTON, May 21.-Nothing
further has come either to verify the
report from Cape Haytien or to indi-
cate that such battle has occurred.
IT was given more credence that usu-
ally attaches to such rumors because,
Notwithstanding REPORTS for the past
day'or two locating Admiral Sampson
at Key West, it has been suspected
that not all of his vessels returned
there, but since leaving San Juan and
touching at Cape Haytien he has been
lying in wait for the Spaniards in the
Windward Passage.
Mole st. Nichols is very near Cape
Haytien. 1t is at the northwestern
point of Hayti on promontory that
extends westerly into the Windward
Straits and is about 100 miles from
Santiago. If such an engagement has
occurred Admiral Cervera was steam
ing north through the straits. for #
he had been returning to Spain he
would have sailed easterly or south
easterly from Santiago on track ov-
er 100 miles south of Mole st. Nicho-
las.

lively his disbelief in the Cape Hay.

said, ''for in the first place. there are
not twelve vessels jn Spain's squad

not at Mole st. Nicholas, and. third

in Santiago harbor."
