treme Measures.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 31.-The navy de-
partment has received a report from
Captain Leary, the naval governor Of
the island of Guam, i'll the Ladrones,
which has excited good deal of inter
est among the officials to whom it has
been exhibited. The president himself
has read the report, his interest being
particularly attracted by the disclosure
of the fact that the first American gov
ernor Of the island has already been
obliged to adopt heroic measures to in
sure proper administration of affairs
there.
Captain Leary soon learned that his
authority as governor was being sub
verified and every one of the measures of
reform which he had proposed was be-
ing defeated by the hostile influence of
the friars. After exhausting all other
means to overcome this influence, Cap
tain Leary reports that he was obliged
to notify a half dozen of the friars that
they mi; hit have free transportation
away from Guam and he should expect
them to avail themselves of the offer.
That left but one friar on the island,
and he was n man whose character and
reputation was such as to convince Cap
tain Leary of his fitness to remain.

CORPORATION TAX LAW.
Iowa Supreme Court Makes Finding That
1t Is Unconstitutional,

Iowa Supreme Court Makes Finding That
1t Is Unconstitutional.
DES MONIES, Oct. 27.-The supreme
court handed down a decision which
completely knocks out the present sys-
TEN of assessing and taxing insurance,
express, telegraph, telephone, sleeping
car and fast freight companies. The
law provides they shall pay certain per-
centages of gross receipts to the state
treasury. The court holds that corpor-
ations must be assessed on the same
basis and for the same purposes as indi-
viduals. A corporation paying its en-
tire taxes to the state does not help sup
port city, county and schools as indi-
viduals must do, hence the law is un-
constitutional. Assessor French Of
Des Moines assessed the insurance COM
panies on the cash market value of
their stocks. They enjoined him and
the case went to the supreme court,
which upholds French and says the
state collection is invalid. Attorney
General Remley says this means the
system of assessing railroads must also
be reorganized under this decision,
which is considered the most important
handed down in a long time.

FIND WATERY GRAVES
Many Believed to Have Been
Drowned In North River.
FERRYBoAm GOES TO THE BOTTOM.

Vessel Is Cut In Two by the Steamer City
OF Augusta and Sinks In a Few Minutes.
Estimates of the Loss of Life Vary
Widely.
NEW YORK, Oct. 31.-The Pennsyl-
vania ferryboat Chicago, was cut in
two by the steamer City of Augusta of
the Old Dominion line early this morn
ing on the New York side Of the North
river. She went down in seven or eight
minutes. There were between 80 and
40 people aboard, four being women.
1t is supposed that several persons were
drowned. In spite of the severity of
the accident there was no panic. Most
OF the people were on the upper deck,
and only half a dozen persons were OH
the lower deck. Most of the passengers
obtained life preservers. Those who
could not obtain them, about half a
dozen in number, swan ashore. There
was considerable shouting for help, the
people on the boat calling for small
boats to come to their assistance. No
small boats were launched, however,
probably owing to the brief period Of
time which elapsed between the cutting
IN two and the sinking. The Old Do
minion liner was evidently coming up
the river at the time of the accident,
while the Chicago was headed across
from the New Jersey shore for New
York.
Estimates made by persons who sue
ceeded in escaping vary widely, some
thinking it possible that no loss of life
resulted, while others believe that at
least score of persons were drawn into
the whirling vortex as the ferryboat
