SCRAP ON THE CIBLE LINE.

Horsecar Driver Was Small but Fierce,
and the GriPman Came of Second Best.
Such an old-fashioned muss between street
car drivers as used to be an ordinary incident
In the streets Of New York. occurred late yes
terday afternoon at Park Row and Chambers
street. The crossing was pretty we'll blocked
with trucks whom Third avenue cable-car and
. Madison street horsecar came along at the
same time and tried to squeeze through the
jam. There was small opening in the mass
OF tangled trucks which left chance for the
horsecar to get through when the grlpman
sent his car forward The driver OF the horse
car wasted few words. He was a small man.
but he jumped from his car in II minute and
made for the gripman. who was twice his size
Before the latter knew il he received singing
blow in the face 1t all occurred in an instant,
and before the motorman had fully recovered
from his surprise thu driver was back in his
car defantly waving his switch hook and in
viting the grpman to come over and get some
more. The latter didn't dare leave his car, and
the two moved along exchanging opinions as
to what would happen next time.

a Mistake aud Croker Rescinds 1t.
Chief Croker Of the Fire Department will
issue an order to- morrow restoring to the fire.
mon the privilege OF going to their homes
three times a day for meals. instead of twice n
day. The fire laddies were allowed to leave
their quarters for three meals day for many
years until two months ago. when Chief Croker
ordered that time should be allowed them for
two meals day only. and that all the men
should be at quarters at 8 o'clock in the
evening.
Il am satisfied that the old system OF three
meals day works best for the fremen." said
the chief yesterday. Some OF the men prefer
longer leave OF absence for each meal and
two leaves Of absence a day rather than three
short leaves Of absence day. I shall instruct
the com pany commanders to use their judg-
meut in granting the men either the two long
or the three short leaves OF absence.
Fire Commissioner Scannel said he had
authorized a man to get the real sentiment of
the flremen in reference to the order for two
meals day. and he found that the majority OF
the men were in favor OF three meals daily, 80
he suggested to the chief return to the old
order.

MARYLAND REPUBLICAN DOCTRINE
Tho Convention to Declare for the Open
Advocacy of the G old STANDARD.

advocacy OF the SOlu StanUnru
BALTIMORE. Sept. 2-The most important
conference which has yet taken place between
the Republicans OF the State was held this
morning in the Office OF Gen. ARnus. There
were present Gov Lowndes. Senator We'll
lington. Senator McComas. State Treas
urer shryock. United States Appraiser H.
r. Robert. Congressman Frank @. Wachter.
City Register J. Frank Supplee. Register OF
Wills Stephen r. Mason Sheriff E. NJ. Hon.
man and Gen. Agnus. The platform to be
submitted to the State Convention was the
chief matter under discussion. Each Of the
points to be embodied in the platform was
taken up in order and discussed. general
decision being reached.
The drafting OF the platform was then left to
Senators McComas and Wellington and Messrs.
shryock. wachter and Suppee. The platform.
as drafted. will then be submitted to another
conference. to be held on Tuesday. the hour
and place for which have not yet been decided
upon.
Another important thing de cided upon was
that the city and legislative conventions which
will meet on Tuesday should adjourn without
nominating any candidates This will be fol-
lowing the Democratic precedent and vii
probably force the Democratic party to do its
nominating first. The Republicans seem to be
willing to make tho actual campaign Just as
short the Democrats wish
The points OF the platform which were de-
cided were on reference to police reorGaniza-
ton. revision OF the reassessment law. a low
erng of the rate OF taxation, a rehearsal
Of the good legislation which the Republican
party has given the State, an endorsement OF
the State Treasurers elsctionand the pledgug
OF the party to the reelection Of Gen. Shryock
as Treasurer. On national issues a fiat
and square Endorsement OF the single
gold standard was agreed upon. and
also an endorsement Of the national
Administration, with the expression OF the
belief that the Philippines should be con-
quered and held until tho people are able to
establish stable government for themselves.
Attention will be called to the prosperity OF
the country under the administration OF Pres
ident Mckinley, as also to his conduct Of the
war. On the acquisition OF territory by the
United States the platform will not take any
very decided stand.

An Action to Prevent the Exemption of
Manufacturing Property from Taxation.

An Action to Prevent the Exemption of
Manufacturing Property from Taxation.
Troy. N. Y. Sept. "A novel suit. involving
interesting legal points. was begun Yesterday
by the Troy Waste Manufacturing Company,
as a taxpayer against the City OF
Cohoes. James II. Mitchell. as Mayor OF
Cohoes. and other municipal officers.
enloining them from violating tho law OF
uniform taxation by exempting from local tax
alton certain parcels OF property owned by the
United States Manufacturing Company and by

resolutions by the Common Council OF Co.
hoes. May 2 and May 10. exempting the
property involved from taxation for five
years as an inducement to tho manufacturing
concerns to locate In Cohoes. The grounds on
which the Injunction is asked are to prevent
waste OF and injury to tho estate, funds
and property OF the municipal corporation
OF the city OF Cohoes and injury and damage to
the property and property rights OF the plointifr
and other taxpayers OF Cohoes. The result OF
the action will DO awaited with interest
The matter OF exempting from taxation BUSH
ness corporations and enterprises as an induce
ment for their location has been OF vital inter-
est 80 nearly every city or village. and this
action Is one OF the first OF it's kind.
Exemption from taxation has been practised in
the cities OF the State for a numbe Of years
and the methods employed by the municipal
authorities have not been questioned. The
decision OF this case may have a far-reaching
effect on the framing Of charters for cities and
villages.
Atemporary injunction has been granted By
Justice Chase and an order issued directing
the defendants to show cause at a special
torn OF OF the Supreme Court. to be held in

DALLAS. Tex. Sept 2.-The Dallas county
Texas Commissioners have determined to
tax the corporations on their franchises
This has never been done in Texas
before other counties are showing deter
mination to follow Dallas. The railroad. tele-
graph. telephone. gas. electric light street rail-
way and other franchises IN Dallas county are
being scheduled by the Tax Commits
sioner at an aggregate far beyond
Sl0O.O00.00O. The franchise OF the Associated
Press in Dallas county was at first pat down
by the commissioners at 100000. Attorneys
for the Associated Press strongly protes
against this asserting tho amount was too
high. At to-day's session tho commits
sioners showed a disposition to mako the
rating much higher, instead OF lower. 1t
has developed that the Associated Press has
never taken out State license as corpora
ton to permit it to do business in Texas. and
now the State authorities are after It and
threaten to drive it from the State IL it does not
settle its delinquercies.
The new Antitrust law which will 60 into
effect on Jan. 81 next is severe against news
monopoIics. and more trouble lies In that d.
rection for the Associated Press.
