hundred million dollars worth OF prop
ertv; tat a true assessment adjusted |
nearer u the equal value OF property
wcu reduce the average county taxes
to perhaps one dollar on the hundred

twenty-five cents on the hundreds: that
this differentiation OF property -csui,s

Craftsmanship OF the State Central
Committee, largely by means Of prox-
les obtained by and under the control
OF Senator William NJ. Stewart. with
out Drorcr notice as to the prrDos, NJ
the meeting. and,
Whereas: l. has since been demon

against the Hon. Francis G. Ncwlands
were absolutely false and that the real

LONDON, Dec. .-"Reports from

Monday, "point to the probability that
serious negotiations for peace will be.
gin forthwith. It is believed that a
short preliminary protectorate is in
process of arranging, leaving many
questions, including commercial sub.
jects, to separate conventions to be
drawn up later. The powers will re-
tain their troops in China until the ne.
gotiations are settled and until tangible
evidence is given that China honestly
intends to fulfill her engagements. Pro.
gressive Cinnamon regard the present
as a good opportunity to overthrow the
reactionary Manchurian methods and
to inaugurate regime Of real prog
ress.
1T is urged that the powers shall in
sist upon the cancellation of the claim
of the present heir apparent, Prince
Tuan's son, and the substitution of an
heir Of full ago free from any connec-
ton with the Tuan party. Such man
is available and the step is declared to

The Netherlands Will Not Take the In.
itiativs in Favor OF the Beers.
The HAGUE, Dec. l2.-The Dutch
government has finally and definitely
refused to take the initiative in behalf
Of arbitration between the Transvaal
and Great Britain.
The decision Of the government was
communicated in an interview between
Mr.. Kruger and DR.. Leyds on one side
and the Dutch foreign minister and the
minister Of finance, N. G., Pierson, on
the other. Mr.. Kruger explained that
the object OF his journey was to dis.
seminate the idea of arbitration and
the Dutch minister replied that the
role of the Netherlands must be passive.
The initiative belonged to the great
powers, he added. When the powers
had reached decision the Dutch gov.
ernment might see what it could do.

STATEMENT is DENIED.

Great Britain Has Not Expressed Will
tngness to Accept an Amended Treaty.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 12.-A prominent
official of the state department said
during the day: "There is no founda-
tion whatever for the story that this
government has received assurance
from that of Great Britain that the
canal treaty, if ratified by the senate
with the pending amendment, be ac-
cepted by the British cabinet. No such
promise, suggestion or intimation has
ever reached the state department from
any official source, and the department.
does not know what action the British
government would take in the event
that the pending treaty is amended as
proposed. Every intimation, however,
that has reached hers goes to show
that the adoption of any amendment
would be regretted by the British au-
thOrities.'

CHINA ON HER KNEES,

Brigadier General Wilson Speaks of the
Situation There.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 12.-Brigadier
General James H. Wilson ha- arrived
in Washington direct from Peking and
called at the war department and paid
his respects to the officials. Speaking
of the Chinese situation, he said:
"China absolutely is PROSTATE. The
report that she contemplates making a
counter claim for indemnity on ac-
count of the punitive expeditions may
be true but I have no reason to believe
that any attention will be paid to it,
China has nothing to say in the matter.
She is on her knees and must accept
the terms the powers decide to impose
The punitive expeditions are unneces-
sary and the American troops did not
participate in them. Their effect was
to create bad blood"

LONDON, Dec. l2.-The Evening
Standard says the battle between Gen.
eral Knox and General Dewet contin-
ues and that the forces change ground
necessarily. Lack Of definite informa-
tion on the subject is said to be due to
the absence of telegraphic communica-
ton with the scene of action.
While the war office is most reticent
on the subject there are indications
that the officials have received news
suggesting considerable British success
against Dewet.

LONDON, Dec. II. Sir Alfred Hick-

house Of commons the subject Of the
contract for the Uganda railroad
bridges going to America, insinuating

invited in the United Kingdom on ex-
actly the same con nditions as they were
invited from the United States, but
the American tender was accepted be-
cause it was considerably the lowest.
While the government, was anxious to
