Tax Commissioner Figures Show Property
Valued at Sill, 048, 705.
PACIFIC EXPRESS COMPANY APPEARS
Representative says that Real Estate
Tax Committee's Valuation would
be Practical C~OnHscation of
CompaBy's Property.

Tax Commissioner Fleming has now so
far completed his work as to show 'hc
total figures Of the assessment for 1903, as
he adjusted it without the revlsions which
have been made by the Board Of Review.
Above are given the figures.
These figures show a marked increase
over those of last year, which was entirely
in the valuation OF personal property. The
assessment OF last year was made on the
basis OF 40 per cent Of the full value of
the property, and this year the policy
adopted was to assess all property at its
fair cash value. Following are the figures
of last year multiplied by "a for the pur-
pose Of comparison, that the full valuation
OF the property be shown:

CATTLE-There was a generous supply
of cattle here today, but su1l receipts were
not as heavy as they were a week ago
today, as the table will show. Steer buyers
were rather bearish in their Views, and
trade for that reason was slow, but the
COW market was active and fully steady.
A big proportion of the receipts this
morning consisted of steers. and as pack
ers did not take hold with much life the
market was slow and the tendency of prices
downward. Some sales were made that
looked Just about steady, but more fire.
Quently sellers had to take on a dime
before they could move their cattle. The
quality today was nothing extra, the bulk
Of the offerings consisting OF short fed
cattle.
There did not seem to be any more cows
and heifers on sale than packers wanted,
and as there was considerable competition
the market ruled active and steady to
strong on the better grades A bunch of
heifers sold at $5.2S, but they were good.
The medium grades OF COWS and the can
ners did not sell much different from
yesterday, and the market on those kinds
was not particularly active.
where the quality was satisfactory. Veal
calves seemed to be a little lower, as II
now takes something fancy to bring $3.50
or better. Stays were lower unless they
were extra choice.
this morning, and anything choice and of
good weight sold without difficulty at steady
prices. The common and lightweight cattle,
however, were q drug on the market the
same as they have been all along. Repre-

OF CALCUTTA.
No women to BE Employed in saloons
After April 4, o

Calcutta is threatened with the loss Of its
barmaids. reports the London News, and a
no small portion of the community vio-
lently resents it. An order has recently
been issued by the government Of Bengal
that a clause Is to be inserted In the
licenses OF all hotel proprietors absolutely
prohibiting the employment OF women in
any capacity In or about the bar. This
prohibition is to take effect from the LIST
Of April. 1909. on which date q number OF
women will be thrown out Of employment.
The result Is a widespread agitation.
The number Of barmaids in Calcutta has
considerably increased In recent years. In
the majority OF cases they are brought out
from England by the hotel and bar proprie-
tors under contract for a term of years.
generally three. The loss to them OF a
means OF livelihood is to be deplored, but
as they are entitled to a passage back to
England, II does not entail the facilIs des-
census Averni that the more violent among
the agitstors predict. The correspondence
columns of the Calcutta Press show that
their sympathisers are numerous, but they
further show that the sympathy, though
doubtless merited. is the outcome Of a very
erroneous impression regarding the reasons
upon which the prohibition is founded.
The measure Is one, in fact, OF considera-
BILE political Significance. It is deplorable.
but none the less true, that the veneration
with which the white man used to be re-
garded by the native lie rapidly declining,
especially in large towns like Calcutta,
where the European population Is composed
Of almost every stratum Of society. More
over. the freedom which western nations
allow to the womsnkind is wholly repug-
nant to the Oriental idea. and the spectacle
OF an English girl selling spiritaous liquors,
a trade which among the natives Of India is
relegated to the very lowest castles, is one
which tends still further to lower the "iz-
zat," the reputation of the dominant race.
The Oriental is slow to move; the Unborn
prejudices Of a thousand generations can
not be uprooted in a day. Where the west
j~ostles the east, where the most advanced
OF modern ideas come into contact with a
conservatism such as is updreamt OF out Of
Asia, friction is bound to ensue. BY wise
concessions to prejudice that friction may
be reduced. and the skillful driver Of the
engine of state is he who knows where and
what to concede. Let the barmaids and
their sympathizers take comfort. II they
are sacrificed, they are sacrificed for the
sake Of the stability Of the British empire
in India.

Vast Landed Properties I'm New York
that Escape the Assessors.

Illinois is not the only state in this union
I'm which large landed properties pay no
tribute for the support OF the government,
reports the Chicago Chronicle. In New York
the same conditions exist. The constitu-
tional amendment submitted to the voters
OF New York state this year was designed
to prohibit the passage of any laws in
creasing the amount OF real property ex-
empted from taxation. The present amount
OF property so exempt Is about $500. 900, 900,
or a seventh OF the total valuation of the
state. including real estate and personal
property.
Much OF this exemption is due to laws
passed by successive legislatures. but a
considerable part would be necessarily ex-
empted. Thus the United States govern
ment has nearly So. 100000 of real estate
within the boundaries OF New York, and
OF his amount &0.O0O.00 Is within the
counties making up the Greater New York.
There Is S2.OO0.OO0 Of federal government
property I'm Buffalo and $l.200.0OO In Oswego.
The other cities of the state dc not con-
tribute much 10 this total.
The state OF New York owns property TO
