WEBER'S ASSESSMENT TOO LOW
so THOUGHT BOARD OF EQUAL
IZATION.
Board Spent the Day In ogden-Vis-
tied the Street Railway Com
pany's Plant.

The state board of equalization was
in session in Ogden yesterday. The
county assessment rolls were gone
over and the board was of the opinion
that the assessment was entirely toe
low. Assessor Gibson, however, ex-
planned a number of the differences be-
tween the rolls of 1898 and 1899.
The 1898 assessment on sheep,
amounting to S14,100, and which is not
in the new roll, not being assessable in
this county, also S41, 900 in bank stock,
which was in the 1898 amount but is not
in that of 1899, on account IT the de-
cision of Judge Rolapp that real estate
of banks must be assessed in the coun-
ty where located. 1t was also shown
by the assessor that many pieces of
real estate had been sold for less than
the amount of the assessment.
No action was taken by the board and
they adjourned and went to inspect the
power plant of the Ogden City Street
Railway company.

GAVE BACK THE CASH.
Sheriff's Execution On Railroad
Money Recalled.

The case of Hiland Berry VS.. r. r.
Hine furnished another interesting
chapter yesterday, when the motion to
set aside the execution came up. The
levy was made by the sheriff on Thurs
day to satisfy a judgment of sos. 1t
developed that the sheriff attached the
safe in the Union Pacific office. but as
the company had been quietly doing
the days business in another part of
the building, there was no money in the
safe Two hundred and fourteen dol
lars were taken from the pockets of
Chief Clerk Fleishner, and when this
was established in court, the execution
was set aside. the money returned and
a. five-day stay of execution was
granted The points raised by Attor-
ney Agee were that the money was
taken by force from Fleishner, and that
the same belonged to the Oregon Short
Line instead of the Union Pacific. The
railroad will test the matter in the su-
preme court to establish the fact
whether a man may be garnished in
this state for a debt contracted in an
other state when the defendant is, fur
thermore, not resident of this state.
