THE HAGUE, July 21-Baron de Staal
presided at the plenary session of the
International Peace Conference to-day to
Mace the final seal upon the labors OF the
first committee. The first point OF M.
Karnebecks report, dealing with prohi-
bition of dropping explosives from bal
looms, was unanimously agreed to.
The second point, prohibiting the use of
asphvxiating projectiles was agreed to
bv all except the United States and Great
britain whose abstinatton nulllnes the
agreement of the others.
The third point, which relates to ex-
handing bullets, occupied the major part
of the sitting, owing to the question OF
dumdum bullets used by the British
army. Sir Julian Pauncefote expressed
regret that the plenary session had been
so suddenly summoned, as the British
Government had intended to make
statement regarding the dumdum bullet.
The conference agreed to leave the min
utes of the session open for the insertion
of the British statement.
Andrew D. White, the head of the
United States delegation, then made an
important speech in opposition to the pro-
hihition of such bullets as the dumdum.
Mr.. Whites argument made great i'm
nression upon the delegates, and especial

of the proposal as submitted would not
nrevent the use of another bullet which
had already been invented and which
would attain the same end as the dunn

WOODLAND, July 21.-At the first
meeting of the County Board of Equal

be reductions in the assessed valuation

The board adjourned sine die on Thurs

there being material reduction, the roll

of the increase has been made on the
