CHASED A RUSSIAN CRUISER.
Shanghai Correspondents Believe That China
Seeks to Hoo6wink tie Powers.
(By the Associated Press.

London, Oct. 6.-(Saturday, 4:15 a. ny
It is reported in St. Petersburg. accord
ing to the correspondent Of the Times, at
the Russian capital, that the Chinese fleet
in FormCsa Strait attempted to nGage
the Russian arnorcd cruiser Rurik, but
the ~latter's speed frustrated the plan.
The correspondent says it is probable
that the allied scuadrons will force the
Chinese feet to canitu,ate or viii de-
Stroy it.
Shanghai kilograms announce that the
imperial cGict dated September 30th, or
lering the court to be removed to 81 Oman
Fu WIGS issued owing to the famine at Tai
Yuan Fu, capital Of the province Of Shan
ST. They also EXPRESS the opinion that
the object Of the recent edictss regarding
the degradation Of Chinese p~eTsonaSes Of
high rank is merely to gain time, and TO
enable China to be in a better position to
defy the powers, as the new capital will
be virtually inaccessible from the coast.
The Shanghai correspondent OF tho
Morning Post, discussing this aspect OF
nc case. remarks:
the GerGan troops nave no means OF
transport, ard any attempt to follow the
Chinese court would be therefore quite
futile"
He says that the Chinese firmly believe
in the existence of a EuSso-Gcrman agree
mcnt under which Russia will take all tn,
territory north CT the great wall and Ger
neany the Provinces OF Chi Ii and Shan
Tung.

AREFORM NEEDED.

The tax eases, now before Judge
~Simonton, in which the railroads re-
fuse to pay the taxes on the assess
mcnts made by the Corporation Com
mission, is cliciting much information
for The benefit OF the next General As
sembiv. rs to the case in court, OF
course it will like the brook, go OF
forever or as long as it will serve the
interest Of the railroads. The people
look to the Legislature to put an end
TO Simonton's bowling farce by impos-
ing q franchise or gross income tax,
which Will put it out of Simontons
power to override the sovereign right
of the State OF North Carolina to as
scss property in its borders for taxa
ton.
50 far the public has learned three
important facts from the evidence and
the r~lcadings:
1.ihat the railroads are assessed at
less than one-half Of their actual cash

sors, that in some counties the assess
ors do not obey the law or take heed
II their oaths to assess property at
its true cash value, but assess it below
such value. in one county the average
Is scventy-fiyc per cent, III another
seventy, in another ninety, and in
some townships land is assessed at one
ratio and in another township of the
sam county at still another. in some
counties the assessment of some land
fer property is 50 out Of proportion to
its value as to make it scandalous.

$1,000 farm III Wayne was assessed foT
taxation at only S1,40O.
