SCHOOL BOARD TO OBJECT
DOES NOT WANT A CITY MARKET
AT NINTH AND MIN
~ NESOTA
1t Wonld He q Nuisance In the
Judgment of One Member of the
Board, Who Is Said to Represent
the Seven.

1t is more than probable that the school
board will enter a protest against the loca-
ton OF public market on the Minnesota
street property which is being considered by
the joint committee of the board OF aldermen
and assembly.
A member of the board was seen yesterday
by The o e, and It was stated that the
board would oppose any proposition to locate
the market near the high school, particu-
larly when 1t would be just across the street.
Assemblyman Benson and Aid. Bantz have
been busily at work looking over the prop
erty and 1t would not be surprising If it was
decided to locate the market on part of the
block between Ninth and Tenth street facing
on Minnesota street. because of its central
location. The committee, however, have sew
era1 other tracts in view and making a
careful Investigation before submitting their
report.
If the market was located on the Mime
sofa street site the hucksters wagons would
obstruct the access OF the pupils to the build
ing and altogether 1t would be very un-
desirable thing for the school.
The board is reported to be unanimously
opposed to the location Of the market ON Min
nesota street.

Large Reception Held by the President

Washington, February s.-The President and Mrs. Mckinley tonight received con- gress as their guests. The reception was a large one despite the snow blocked streets and avenues and the unusually low ther- mometer.
 There was a small contingent of the dip- lomatic corps, the army and the public in addition to those from congressional life. The blue, red and east rooms of the White House were lavishly decorated with hya- cinths and other flowers and the walls banked with palms. The United States Ma rine band and that of the Fourth artillery furnished music from the conservatory.
 The receiving party included most of the members of the cabinet and their ladies, General and Mrs and Miss Miles, Adjutant General Corbin, Senator and Mrs. Hanna, Senator and Mrs. Jones and Mrs. Daniel Manning.

 of Hungarian Strikers
KILLED IN LATTIMER RIOT
State Department Decides That Sheriff Martin Was Acting Entirely Within His Jurisdiction When He
 Ordered Posse to Fire.

Washington, February 8.-The state de- partment, after mature consideration, has declined to recognize the claim of the Aus tro-Hungarian government for indemnity on account of the Hungarian strikers killed by Sheriff Martins posse at Hazleton, Pa, in 1897.
 The claim has been pending for many months upon the basis of a report filed with the state department by Robert D. CoXe, the representative of the Austro- Hungarian government. The departments action is based upon a special opinion pre- pared by Solicitor w. L. Penfeld, covering the entire field of national responsibility in such cases of mob violence or rioting. In his opinion Solicitor Penfield goes over so much of the evidence produced upon the trial of Sheriff Martin as seemed to be nec- essary to establish the facts, and then con- cudes with the following statement:
 '"The Latimer strikers were disturbers of the peace and violators of the law. They were rapidly drifting into a state of petty war It was the duty of the sheriff to take measures to prevent, as well as to repress, civil tumults and disorders. On previous occasions he had commanded them to dis perse, and they obeyed They were per- fectly familiar with his official position and the nature of the authority he exer- cised. If they had obeyed his lawful com mand no blood would have been she'd and in their lawless and aggressive conduct in challenging the embodied force of the state they placed themselves beyond the pro- tecting pale of the law. To reward the wounded living and the heirs of those slain under such circumstances would be offer ing a premium to lawlessness and inviting renewed outbreaks and riots. This gov- ernment is therefore unable to admit the Justice of the claim'

IMPORTANT DECISION.
Supreme Court of Virginia Decides a
 Case of Great Interest.

Richmond, Va, February 8.-A very im- portant case was decided by the supreme court of Virginia today, that of the board of supervisors of Montgomery county vs. W. F. Talant. The appellee is a merchant. His invested capital was assessed by the commissioner of revenue of Montgomery county. He resisted payment on the ground that such taxation was illegal in view of his having paid his license tax as a mer- chant.
 The question to be decided was, does the state assess with taxes the capital en- ployed by a merchant in his business. The opinion, which is exhaustive, holds that it does not. The opinion holds that the lan- gUage of the statute does not contemplate the taxation of their invested capital; in- deed, the words in the section of the code referred to make it clear that 1t should not be so assessed, declaring "the sum imposed under and by virtue of this section shall be in lieu of all taxes, for state purposes, or the capital actually employed by said merchant or mercantile firm in said busi- ness"

company. He was shot in the forehead Sergeant Jay Sheldon, company l, was se- riously wounded. Privates Daniel Hewitt Healitt) Ernest Fritz, John Gillian, and two others, members of Company B, were slightly wounded
 Thirty dead Fiipinos were counted in the brush, and there were many more wounded The gunboats Concord and Callao kept up an incessant fire from the bay, the Concord dropping many shells in the town with tell ing effect. In order to avoid accidents from this source General Otis was compelled to recall the Kansas battalion after burning the outskirts of the town. Either the shells of the American warships or the natives themselves fired a number of buildings within the town limits. Presumably this was a result of the sheling. No further at tempt to attack during the night was made by either side.
 Spanish Press Favorable
 The Spanish papers generally comment in favorable terms upon the admirable order maintained in Manila. The Union Iberica says:
 we are satisfied that the Americans, who are for the greater part volunteers, fought cooly and with perfect discipline, though without entrenchments at the va rious points defended, and demonstrated the spirit which animates them. The Fili- pinos who are accustomed to fight in trenches and with guerilla methods, fought bravely, but with less precision and regu- larity."
 The situation Is practically unchanged. The American line has not been apparently extended, and the troops generally are talk ing much needed rest. Reconnaissances show that the Filipinos are in force in the villages of Pasig and Paranque, probably 1000 men at the latter place, within strong Notifications. All is quiet along the line as this dispatch is filed at noon.
 Provost Guard in Control
 Manila, February S.-5:15 p. m.-The pro- yost guard is in absolute control of Manila. All fears of native uprising in the city were dispelled by the promptitude which ouelled the outbreak on Monday evening. The streets were deserted last evening by o'clock, and not light was to be seen in the native quarter
 The Filipinos, accustomed to Spanish methods, are constantly inquiring of the American soldiers when the prisoners are to be executed. They seem unable to real izc that orders have not already been issued for the execution Indeed headquarters is besieged by women anxious to plead for the lives of their relatives and friends

Lopez Will Remain in Washington for

Washington, February S.-Sixto Lopez, Agoncillos secretary, and Dr. Lasada, his associate, the two remaining members of the Filipino junta in this country, will not be able to get out of town for some days. Lasada's inflammatory rheumatism is still acute, and he is suffering too much pain to leave his bed.
 At the same time it is asserted positively that the administration will ignore their presence here. provided they commit no ob- jectionable act, and a member of the cabi- net stated tonight that no point was likely to be raised by this government against the juntas staying in Canada.

WOODS RETURN.
Has Completely Pacifed the People of

Santiago February 8-The return of General Leonard Wood, military governor of the department of Santiago, has com pleteIy pacifed the people, and 1t is ex- pected that he will soon recommend the disbanding of two more regiments, the Ninth and Third immunes. The governor has been asked by the local authorities in the Mayari district to send two companies of American troops there, as the civil guard is said to be incompetent. The outbreak of smallpox in the HolgGin district has been completely subdued. The health of the Second Immune regiment is good.

tion of free rations to others. The rebels 1t appears, have loop-holed church tower in Cavite, evidently with the purpose Of occupying it with sharpshooters.
 Senor Aguinallos, the Filipino ex-commis- sioner, made an unofficial visit to General Otis today. Tomorrow is the first day of the Chinese new year, and orders have been issued prohibiting fire works.
 Pumping at the water works has been resumed.
 Occupies advance Post
 General Hale's brigade consisting of the First South Dakota infantry, First Col orado infantry and First Nebraska in- fantry, supported by battery of the Utah light artillery, occupies the most advanced post in the American line, fully ten miles from the base of supplies. It has an al- most perfect position. Four guns of the Utah artillery stationed on hill behind the water works, command the valley to the right and left and the foot hills in front.
 Two companies of the Colorados support the Twenty-third infantry, which is en- camped at the reservoir, three miles to the rear. Outposts line the ridge overlooking the valley, while a sand-bang entrench- fnent, with gun emplacements, fronts the river.
 Yesterday the Utahs dropped shells into the villages across the river. The natives disappeared among the hills, the main body retiring to the right and the others catering. subsequently the AnerlcdHS reconnoitred and found the village of San Pedro completely deserted. They did not burn it, and today the villagers returned, bearing bamboos to which white flags were fastened. They kept, however, out of range. Later, signal fires were lighted along the ridge on the other side of the valley.
 Brigade Reconnoifers
 General Overshnes brigade, the Fourth cavalry, Fourteenth infantry and First North Dakota infantry on the right, did some reconnoitering today, but otherwise has been taking matters easily. The First Washington infantry, the First Idaho in- fantry and the North Dakotas are strung out from blockhouse No. II to the old Spanish trenches southwest of the Malate fort, where the Fourteenth infantry is quartered. A native house from which shots have been fired was burned.
 The enemy Is obviously concentrated at Paranaque. General Kings brigade, which includes the First California infantry, First Idaho infantry and First infantry and First Wyoming infantry, has been compelled to destroy the villages of San Pedro Macate, as the natives moving from house to house fired from the windows as the Americans advanced. The Fourth cavalry has hugely enjoyed foraging for food. All that is left of Paco and Santa Ana is occupied by the Californiana.
