FULL VALUE ASSESSMENTS.
Issued Against the Mis-
souri, Board of Equalization by
state Supreme Court.

Jefferson City, Mo-, Oct. Judge
Robinson has issued an alternative
writ of mandamus against the state
board Of equalization, ut the relation
of William Preston Hill, Of st. Louis,
TO compel the board to show cause
why corporation property in St
Louis was not assessed at the full
cash value. The relator shows that
he owns property in st. Louis valued
at SlOa,070, which was assessed at its
full cash value, his total taxes
amounting to $2,O2o.36. whereas a
large number Of corporations speci-
fed have been assessed at from 25 to
As per cent, of their valuations,
The writ Is made returnablc 70
court in course. II is directed TO Al
cxandcr NJ. Dockcry, Sam Is. Cook, r.
p. Williams. Albert o. Allen and Ed
ward G. Grow as members Of the state
board Of equalization.
The petition states that the assess
ment made and certified to the coun-
ties Is n pretended assessment aud Is
fraudulent in that II imposes u hard
ship on the taxpayers who are made
TO pay on n ful-ynluc assessment
The effect Of the issuance of the writ
can not be foreseen
The Van Buren press., 1902-10-04

A correspondent Of the Manufactur'
er's Record interviewed George Gould
in New York recently and says:
"Mr. Gould has much faith in the
future of Arkansas. with its wealth
Of timber and mineral resources and
its fertile soil, and he expects to see
steady development of that section
looks for the swamp lands to be drain
ed, the country to be more fully occn-
pied by incoming settlers. the great
natural resources of the state to be
developed and the whole country to be
built up and its prosperity greatly in
creased, Much interest was expressed
by him in the betterments of his roads
and he particularly dwelt on the work
being done on the line from Little
Rock south through Pine Bluff, where
a / per cent grade has been secured
through cutting, filing and raising the
track, etc.

AT NEW YORK.
Commissiouer williams Criticises
Conditions Which Obtained
Under His Predecessor.

New York, Oct. 1.-The annual re-
port of the commissioner of immlgra-
ton at this port, William Williams
has been filed with the secretary OF
the treasury, and in the document the
commissioner criticises, without re-
serve, conditions which surrounded
the landing of immigrants at Ellis
Island during the ten months pre-
vious to the change of administration
there due to Mr.. Williams appoint
ment. He says in the report:
1.-The chief ms, ector was allowed TO
arbitrarily mark the word 'hold
against the name of any immigrant
on the manifest, thus causing to be
brought to him certain picked people
to be disposed Of as he thought best,
instead of allowing them to be M
spected in the regular way. The fact
that most of those so marked are
shown to have had fair amounts of
money, and that many so marked
were able-bodied people with very
large accounts of money are points
not without interest. The power,
first, to detain these people without
reason, and, second, to direct them
to boarding houses where they paid
full value for all they received, Will
be appreciated when it is remembered
that from May, 1901, to May 1902,
463,541 immigrants exhibited $685.
$50 as they passed through this sta
ton, and had probably great deal
more that they did not exhibit,
ut appears that some officials were
in the habit of themselves passing
upon cases of immigrants detained
for special inquiry, bringing the I'M
migrants out of the detention room,
discharging them or putting them
back, according to their whims. The
resulting power of blackmail and OF
exerting other improper influences IN
volved in this practice will be readily
SEEN"
The commissioner says he could
cite numerous other instances OF
abuse and lack of system; that the
immigrants were roughly handled
and addressed in rough language by
government and railroad officials;
that the detention pens" were filthy
particularly the dining room, where
the report says, the immigrants were
fed without knives, forks or spoons;
that railroad and other passes used TO
be demanded to a demoralizing eX-
tent; that ships after ships
brought in cases of favas (scalp dis
easel and trachoma (eye dsease)
both dangerous, contagious diseases
unknown in this country until in-
ported in recent years from Europe.
The commissioner says the con-
stantly deteriorating quality OF the
recent immigration calls for the exc
cution of the law in the most strln'
gent manner, and he states that last
year over 1000 aliens who had arrived
within the year became destitute IN
New York.
