MUST PAY TAX ON ARMORIES.
Supreme Court So Decides in Case
of Gate City Guard.

Atlanta, July 19-The Supreme Court
to-day decided that all military COM
panies owning armories in their own
name must pay taxes upon them. The
case in which the decision was reached
was that of the board of trustees Of
the Gate City Guard against the city
of Atlanta. The city brought suit
against the company for taxes in the
Superior Court before Judge Fite, who
decided that the company must pay,
the property being held in the name OF
the trustees of that command
The Supreme Court holds that public
property is only such property as is
held by the state In its own name or
is held by some political division Of
the state. Based upon this ruling, 1t is
declared that section 115G Of the state
code, which law was approved oct 13,
1885, declaring that all armories owned
by military companies shall be to all
intents and purposes, public property
is unconstitutional. All military com
mands. therefore. which own their own
property will, in future have to pay
taxes upon ii. The decision is an inn
portant one, as 1t will probably seri-
ously affect many Of the Oldest military
companies in the state.

THE SLANDER ON ScHLEY.
secretary Long Prohibits Use OF
Mnclay's Third Volume in Its
Present shape.

EeSent Snapes
Washington, July 19.-The Secretary
of the Navy has decided that the third
volume of Maclay's History of the
United States Navy, which contains
the history of the Spanish American
war, shall not be used as a text book
at the naval academy unless the OBJ
noxious language it contains in char
acterizing the action of Rear Admiral
Schley is eliminated. The Secretary
says that it would be manifestly i'm
proper to have a history containing
such Incorporate language used as
text book for the cadets. He will in
form both i. Commander Wainwright,
who is in command of the naval acad-
emy, and Mr.. Maclay, the author of
the history, of his decision.
In this connection the Secretary says
that the proofs of the entire volume
were not submitted to him by
the historian. he received only
the proofs of the third
chapter, that relating to the mobih-
zation of the fleets, which contained
a summary of the orders, which he, as
secretary of the navy, had issued in
making the naval preparations for the
war That chapter was satisfactory
and he returned it to Mr.. Maclay with
an indication of his approval. He says
he never saw the account of the battle
of Santiago, and the criticisms of Ad-
miral Schley until after the book was
published. Mr.. Maclay was appointed
to his present position, that of clerk
lin the New York navy yard, Aug. 23,
1900, having being transferred from
the lighthouse service.

nitv LinbiIity-This Is More Salts
,octor, Than Before.
washington, July 19.-Special Com
missioner Rockhill has provided the
ctoto Department by cable, the follow
49,, statement of the present status of
tho negotiations at Pekin:
"Dinlomatic corps at Pekin is en-
oogad in considering the Russian pro-
nosaIs for the eventual increase of the
tariff maritime customs). A solution
Of the problem is hoped for.
.orhe indemnity fixed at 100000, 900
+aels and 4 per cent. interest, has been
formally accepted, and Japan has
waived preferential treatment.
"The formal surrender of Pekin to
tbe Chinese authorities is expected to
take place on the 14th of August"
The date mentioned is the annivers-
ary of the belief of the legations by
the International force.
The Russian proposal referred to is
understood in substance, to be an in
crease from per cent. to 10 per cent.
of the customs dues which the Chinese
government may collect from the inn
PORTS from foreign countries. 1t is fur
ther understood that this increase is
not to take effect at once, and perhaps
not at all. 1t will depend upon the re-
sources of China under the existing
system This proposition is believed
to be much less objectionable to Great
Britain and Japan, as well as to the
United States, than the original propo-
sition to make an absolute and imme-
date increase of the customs duties 10
the extent proposed.

.Pekin, July 19.-United States Special
Commissioner Rockhill has postponed
his departure in consequence of the
deadlock between the ministers. There
are no signs of Great Britain's yielding

The start was delayed through dis
play of temper on the part of Diamond

R0SEBERY TO THE LIBERALS.
Such Racket Raised That He
Knows His Shots Went Home.

euch KHeket HBHHeu InuI ne
Knows His shots Went Home.
London, July 19.-speaking at the
City Liberal Club this afternoon Lord
Rosebery said that his recent mani
festo in which he declared the Liberal
party could not exist under present
conditions had been followed by such
an extraordinary hullabaloo that he felt
convinced he had expressed, in this
manifesto, the clear and exact truth in
respect to the situation. The speaker
said he wrote the manifeso because, af-
ter the meetings in Queens Hall and
at the Reform Cub. unless some clear
population of the statement regarding
the war was made it was impossible for
the Liberal party to continue to exist
as sound force, appealing to the high
est sympathies of the country. On the
question Of the war his lordship said
ms starting point was that, in spite of
Ihe Jameson raid and in spite of the
Soutn African commission, the Beers
Iau invaded the dominions of the late
queen and from that moment, although
ne had criticised the methods of the
government yet, on the main issue, to
carry the war to a triumphant close, it
would have his warmest support.

THE STATIONARY FIREMeN.
Coal Operators Make Gains, 5u
strikers Are Very CONFIDENT.

Coal Operators Make Gains, Iiu:
strikers Are Very Confident.
Wilkesbarre. Pa, July 19.-More
mines We're in operation and more coal
was hosted in the Wyoming Valley to-
day than any day since the stationary
fremen's strike began. Despite any
action that may be taken by the Off
GERS of the United Mine Workers AS
sociation the fact cannot be denied but
that the united workers as a body are
anxious to get back to work. How
long they can be kept out by the ex-
ecutive heads is entirely problemati-
cal.
The gains made by the companies to-
day were as follows;
The Susquehanna Coal Company, op-
Grating all the collieries at Nanticoke,
had more men at work than any day
this week and their output of coal was
larger.
The firemen at the Avondale mine of
the Lackawanna Company went back
to their old positions and work at the
mine will be resumed tomorrow. Mum
ber eight colliery of the Erie Company
at Pittston resumed work this morning.
Two hundred men are employed there.
The Pettibone mine of the LackG wanna
Company found IT had enough hands to
start up at noon. and operations were
resumed. No attempt, however, was
made to resume work at any of the
mines of the Delaware and Hudson, or
of the Lehigh and Wilkesbarre com
panies.
The Firemen Not Discouraged.
In the face Of this change in the sit
uatlon the strikers are by no means
discouraged. In an official statement
this evening It is declared that In the
upper anthracite region the situation
remains the same with strong indlca-
tions of increased favor for the fire
men and that there is a greater num-
ber of miners idle than yesterday.
The statement says:
I'm compliance with the order of the
United Mine Workers of America to
hremen of their organization to return
TO work but few have compiled, and
there is a steady increase to our ranks
From the Hazleton, Shamokin and
Mount Carmel region the men are fast
organizing and viii respond to the call
to man.
