To the above assessment roll
for this year there will be added
the valuation of 144 miles of
railroad, and about an equal
number of miles of telegraph and
telephone lines when the State
Board of Equalization meets next
Monday. Together with the val
uation of the railroad, telegraph
and telephone lines, not added in
the above list, and the transient
stock the assessment roll of Gus
ter county for the year 1902, can
safely be fixed at 81, 100000.
Had the Commissioners left
the assessment stand as assessed
by Assessor johnson the total
valuation of taxable property in
the county for this year would
have been about 50, 100000. The
only reduction was made on the
patented mines, and some OF
them were cut from 100000 tc
5000.
The cattle industry appears
from the above assessment list tC
be the leading industry of the
county, as it is nearly double the
valuation of any other property.
Most of the sheep-except those
owned by Jos. Rodgers-wert
assessed in other counties.

Troops Were Victorious.

Manila, April 23.-Two engage
ments have been fought between the
American troops and the Moros OF
the island of Mindanao during the
last "a hours. Moore, of the Twenty
Seventh infantry, while out with a
small party hunting for water, was
fired upon at long range. Lieut.. Col.
Frank ID. baldwin. with a battalion
of troops and mountain gun, went
to the assistance of Moore's party
and drove off the Moros, who lost
seven men. The firing was at LOO
yards range. The Moro villages were
flying red flags, meaning that they
intended to fight to the uttermost.
Later, Sultan Pualo and q force OF
natives attempted to re-occupy the
ground gained by the Americans, but
the Moros were forcibly dispersed.

Ne subposnasd and Examined Re-

Denver, COL, April 23.-Gen. Fred
erick Funston yesterday telegraphed
Senator Lodge, chairman of the SEN
ate committee on the Philippines,
asking him to subpoena John Nichol-
son, who is said to have been SER
geant in the Fourth cavalry, and ex-
anime him under oath regarding the
use of the "water cure" Nicholson
Is reported to have said at Norfolk,
Va, that Gen. Funston originated
the "water cure" and practiced it al
most daily for several months.
eff Nicholson makes this statement
under OATH" said Gen. Funston, "he
will land in the penitentiary for per-
jury. l am inclined to believe, how
ever, that Nicholson is a myth. I
know every non-commissioned officer
in the troops of the Fourth cavalry
that were under my command and
there was no sergeant named Nichol-
son. Not only did / not practice the
water cure but / issued strict or
ders against the use of it or any
other form of torture to secure in
formation from the captured insur-
gents. 1 never saw the water cure
administered and do not believe that
it was resorted to by any of my COM
mand. l have extracted valuable in
formation from captured insurgents
by frightening them, but never by
torture"
