NINE PROFITS EXEMPT
Mrs. Mary Judge Secures Re
ductiOn on Tax Values.
HER MONTHLY INCOME
EQUALIZATION BOARD TO SIT
ONE WEEK LONGER.

The county board of equalization yes
terday made reduction of $4,000 in the
item of cash in bank assessed to Mrs
Mary Judge, leaving 81 600 now taxed
to her on this account. The board S
authority for making this cut was
found in an opinion from the county
attorney holding that only One-tenth
of the wealthy lady's monthly income
is taxable. that is, the nine-tenths rep
resented by Silver King dividends must
not be assessed, because the dividends
are net proceeds Of mines already taxed
otherwise. but not in this county.
Mrs. Judge may congratulate herself
on the fact of her attorney, Frank
Pierce. having converted the county
attorney and the equalization board to
this Interpretation of the law. Asses
SOr Quinn had charged this wealthy
taxpayer with taxes on $4,000 of cash
on hand, on the basis that her monthly
income from sources other than net
proceeds Of mines would reasonably
and lawfully stand the assessment
Mrs. Judge, however, is taxed for sew
era hundred thousand dollars Of real
estate and other classes Of very valu-
able property.
Yesterdays session of the equaliza-
ton board marked the close of two
weeks work, leaving only one week
more in which complaining property
owners may demand a reduction in the
value of their holdings, only, however,
for errors in the returns made by the
county assessor. The reductions made
by the board for errors and excessive
valuations since the opening of the ses-
sion aggregate $179, AGO, in PSI cases.
Nothing Of any consequence has been
done yet in the way of raising values
for the purpose of equalization, but
there is ample time left for such pro-
ceedings. A large number of COM
plants have been turned down, on ac-
count of not possessing the degree of
merit sufficient to entitle them to ia
vorable consideration.
Aside from the reduction made TO
Mrs. Judge yesterday for over-valua-
ton Of personal property, these cuts
were made: 7. 3. Trip, from $1,000
TO $500; Sarah z. Remington, from 500

northwestern Wyoming to grade ten
miles of the new TOluca-Cody extension

the Crow lands, and the Indians have
eagerly seized upon the opportunity TO
obtain such employment practically at
the doors.
General Manager Holdredge in speaking
of the matter, said: The Crows are well
able to do the work we have given them,
which is a light grade at that place. They

Special Correspondence

Ogden, June 1.-THE canning plant

steel. and all in all is one of the most
modern buildings in the state. Two
hundred and fifty feet OF the whole is
two stories high, while the balance is
one story.
The first part of the two-story struc-
ture is occupied by one of the most
thoroughly equipped and modern tin
can factories in the world, capable Of
turning out from 10000 to $4,000 cans
per day. The machinery is all auto
matte, and so arranged that the ca
pacity of the plant can be doubled, if
necessary. That it viii be necessary is
evidenced by the fact that the fac
tories in the vicinity Of ogden Zone

is the intention Of the company to sup
ply-nOt only these-but those for ad-
joining states.

with modern machinery for its pur-
pose. It is already running on a small
scale, canning strawberries. It's capac-

output of in the neighborhood of ?, 400

used for storage purposes, and will ac-
commodate about 1901, 900 cans. Here Q
full supply Of empty cans will always
be kept on hand in case Of emergency.

horse power CoTliss engine, with two
sixty horse power boilers. They sup
ply steam and power for the generation
of electricity for the lighting of the

SCOFFSAT THE BOXERS
Chinese Minister in Berlin De-
nOunCeS Them.

Copyright, 1900, by the Associated Press1
Berlin, June 16.-The correspondent
here of the Associated Press saw the
Chinese ambassador at Berlin today.
Through an interpreter he said:
I have no news whatever from the
Cnlnese government about the Boxers
rebellion. The Boxers are a mere rab-
Die, robbers, thieves and rascals. There
are no scholars, mandarins or officials
among them.
The reports that the Chinese soldiers
have attacked the international forces
cannot possibly be true. The empress
doWager opposes the Boxers, and the
troops could not act against her. The
Boxers viii soon be suppressed. They
would have been suppressed by the
Chinese troops without landing the in
ternational forces. The embassies
could have been protected by guards
OF chinese If the embassies had asked
for them"
The latest official German news from
Tien- Tsin, dated the 18th, is viewed at
the foreign Office as cOrrobOratfve Of
the reports that the situation has in
tensified during the week. The foreign
Office continues to believe that the Chi
nese government makes common cause
with the Boxers and does not believe
the government troops attacked the in
ternational forces. as that would be
too crazy a venture"
Parliamentary Revolt is On.
The intention had been to close the
session of both houses of the Prussian
diet today, but owing to the amazing
revolt against the government which
has broken out in the house of lords,
which usually works in full accord
with the government, this has now be-
come impossible.
Under the leadership of Baron Won
LevebOw, who is a former reichstag
president, the lords gave the govern
ment a distinct vote Of distrust in the
matter Of regulating the Silesia rivers.
