\ AN ASSESSORS OPINION.
The Reason for Appeals Given by One
Of Them Yesterday.

The Reason for Appeals Given by One
of Them Yesterday.
The assessors and the board of relief
were kept busy all day yesterday look
| ing UP lists of the dissatisfied property
holders and about fifty appeals were
| taken
| One of the assessors said Yesterday
afternoon that he couldn't for the life
of him see why the New Haven public
| was acting so over the recent assess
ments. He said: 1--WE tried to make a
fair estimate on all the property In New
Haven, but of course like in anything
else there have been a few mistakes
made"
The assessor took down some lists of
those who have made appeals and COM
pared them with lists of other years
and with what the owners have stated
their property to be worth. One piece
of property the house on which was as
sessed at $5,94O. while the owner, the
assessor said, stated that he had paid
$1,000 for the house and lot $50 you
can see" he said, "that the value was
cut rather than raised" 1.-THE property
owners he continued, away from the
center Of the city were laughing in
their sleeves when the assessments on
their neighbors' land in the center of
the city were raised a little, but this
year when their property, which is Gel
tainly worth more than before, was put
up a little they began to kick by the
hundreds. These are the people who are
causing all the trouble and there is no
reason for IT,
The assessor said that probably the
appeals would continue to come in for

"A large number of the appealing
property owners are talking of petition

OF assessors The complaint is made
that the assessors, instead of assessing
property at it's actual value, as the act
provides, have in many cases placed the
assessment way and above the real val

Accurate Descriptions Of Men Have
Been Obtained and Arrests Are
Expected Soon

Poplar Bluff, Mo-. Nov. 23.-Conduc-
tor Whitesido. who had charge Of the
Iron Mountain train held up at Clifford,
Ark, Wednesday night. and Baggage
man Todd, both reside here. Mr..
Whitesido says that at least six men
were engaged in the robbery All wore
masks. Two Of the men guarded the
engineer and fireman, two kept the
passengers quiet and the other pair
broke OPEN the express car. Several
shots were fired at Whiteside, and he
was compelled to remain quiet In the
car. One of the men engaged In blow
ing open the safe compelled Todd, at
the point of a revolver TO accompany
him 20 the express car and take the
keys Of the local safe from the pocket
OF Sam Avery, the express messenger,
who had been badly wounded. He was
then ordered TO select the right key
to the safe and unlock Il. after which
the robbers extracted several bags OF
coin and departed. Baggageman Todd
says the robbers were evidently new
hands at train robbing, for their at
tempts TO blow open the safe were
bungling.
The largest safe, which was subject
/ ed TO fve explosions OF dynamite, was
brought to ST. Louis. In all it's ex-
/ terror portions and its cemont Innings
Il is a complete wreck. The inner cas-
ing, against which the strong box
rests. however. Is intact, although bat
tered and twisted out OF shape. An

CHURCH IN CLEVELAND
FLIES SECOND FLAG

Following the example OF the Right
Rev. Bishop Coleman, another church
flag has been flown TO the breeze in
Cleveland. Ohio. Concerning the event,
the Delaware Churchman says:
in connection. 10 may be interesting to
quote the following from a recent number
of The Guardian. Perhaps. our English
friends will apply to our bishop for his
design. etc:
"'The Rev. Reginald W. Thompson.
Of Burton Joyce Nicarge. Nottingham.
quotes the following from the official
program with regard TO the Church Con-
gress banner.
1.-The main design IL the white ensign.
which is in general use as the customary
flag of the Church Of England and
asks: But why should the white ensign
he in general use. if it is So, as the GUS
tomary flag Of our church? II is. as we
ought to know. the special distinguishing
flag Of our royal navy. and. by the
queens warrant. of one. only one, yacht
club. Surely. the church at large ought
to have nag of her own without appro-
priating that which is the cherished en-
sign of the senior service of our country
Ii the church is still destitute of such q
flag. is it not time that one should be de-
signed for her use generally and dis
tinctivelyY No one could then say tha
she appropriates that which is the prop
erty Of others.

mrOrS Failed to Anticipate

lightly upon his c2ce, when he crossed
the landing stage TO the landau in
which he drove with Or. Loyds and
NM. Pauliat and Thourel The Lam
dau was followed by 1--WE carriages
containing Boer officials. and these
were followed by six others conveying
the officers of the Geldcrland and the
members Of the Marseiles reception
committee, all forming q procession,
headed by various societies with hand
some banners, and escorted by a large
police force
Mr.. Kruger repeatedly acknowledged
the acclamations OF the crowds that
filled the sidewalks and balconies OF
the houses, black with siphtseers
waving hats and handkorchiefs. At
several points along the route bou-
quets were presented to him and on
the balcony of the Military club stood
q group of officers IN gala uniforms,
who heartily joined the ovation. On
arriving at the hotel Mr. Nrugers ears
were greeted with the strains OF a
Boer hymn played by a local band.
while tho standard bearers drew mp in
two ranks at the entrance and waved
the standards as Mr.. Kruger, bare
headed, passed between to his apart
ments.
Soon after. in response to tre-
mendous ovation, he appeared on the
balcony and repeatedly bowed. but as
some ten minutes elapsed without
sign Of abatement in the enthusiasm
he spoke a few words. which were in
terpreted in French by Dr. Leyds and
were followed by a renewal of the

the French tri-color that was flying
from the balcony between the Trans
vaal and Free State flags and pressed
it to his heart again and again. The
enthusiastic people cheered him until
he withdrew to his rooms, which he
found half filled with bouquets and
garlands, presented by his admirers.
The prefect and mayor then called
TO pay their respects, the latter, NJ.
Flaissiores. making an eloquent speech
in sympathy with the Beers. Mr.. Kru-
ger replied briefly.
After luncheon and q little repose
Mr. Kruger descended to the hall Of
the hotel, where he received the dele
cations. Or. Leyds briefly interpreted
the addresses Of the various speakers.
but it was evident that Mr. Kruger was
fatigued and found it a great strain to
follow the gestures of orators speak
ing a language unintelligible to him.
Eventually, the effort becoming too
fatiguing, he asked that the other ad-
dresses be presented to him in writing,
and then withdrew again to his apart
ments.
DR.. Leyds represented him at the
banquet given in his honor where all
the Boer officials and members of the
/ pro-Boer committee were present, and
read a message of thanks from him.
Last night President Kruger sent a
| telegram OF thanks to President Loubet
for the courtesies extended him BY
Frenchmen. and this morning the pre-
feet of the department of Bouches du
Rhone visited Mr. Kruger to present
President Loubets compliments and
thanks for the telegram.
