4 Legal Decision That Corporations Must
Pay Taxes In Proportion to Value
Of Entire Property.

Lincoln, Neb., April 24.--The SUI
preme court of Nebraska yesterday
afternoon overruled the findings Of
Referee Ryan in the case of the Real
Estate exchange Of Omaha against
the Omaha city council, in which the
Real Estate exchange sued for q
writ of mandamus to compel the
council to reconyene as a board Of
equalization and hear complaints
against the alleged low assessment
of the property Of public service cor
porations of the city of Omaha. The
decision is perhaps the most impor-
tant Of the kind ever given, and will
be as far-reaching in its effect as the
famous school-teachers' case of Chi
cago. The decision, in reversing the
recommendation of the referee finds
for the Real Estate exchange on
every point Of law, and decides the
writ shall issue. The mandamus de-
mands that the franchised corpora
tions shall be assessed on the same
basis as private property.

STRIKING OVERS.

Paterson, N. j., April 24.-Striking
dye helpers yesterday stormed the
establishments that were still rum
ming and by force compelled a COM
plete suspension of business in their
trade. They engaged in a series Of
running fights with the police and
plant managers and in one of the Sc
yerest clashes exchanged a volley Of
pistol shots with them. Many per-
sons on either side were severely
injured during the rioting. 1t was
believed for time that it would be
necessary to ask the state for troops
to restore order, but the police ex-
pressed confidence in their ability to
handle the situation and no request
for outside aid was made. Judge
Dixon called the grand jury and
charged them to indict the persons
guilty Of rioting. Large numbers Of
the strikers were in sullen spirit
and it was predicted last night that
any attempt on the part Of the, EN-
ployers to resume business without
dealing with them would be desper-
ately resisted.

The Barlow Is Wrecked In Lake Erie and
Three Persons Lose Their Lives
In Consequence.

Sandusky, O., April %. The
schooner Barlow, from Marine City,
has foundered in Lake Erie, half a
mile from Put-in-Bay, and three per-
sons have lost their lives in conse-
quence. The dead are: Capt. Rob-
ert Pardy, of Marine City, his wife
and his stepson, Alexander Morris,
aged IS years. Dick Burke, sailor,
of Port Huron, survived the wreck
and was brought to Sandusky yester-
day by the life-saving crew from
that port, who had tried several
times during the night to reach the
wreck.
According to Burke's story, when
the boat seemed hopelessly in the
power of the fearful storm, the
party got into the rigging, the cap
tain, his wife and Morris on the lee
side of the boat. The boat soon
filed with water and fell over onto
the lee side, throwing the three per-
sons into the water and drowning
them almost Immediately. Burke re-
tanned his position in the rigging,
having fallen asleep from exhaustion,
and was thus found by the life-sav-
ing crew yesterday.

sooner or later. The Japanese are

Kansas City, No., April 24.-E. J.
Smiley, Of Topeka, secretary Of the
Kansas Grain Dealers association,
who is here, has just completed the
compilation of statement on the
condition Of wheat in Kansas, made
up from Geographic and mail reports
received in the past week from every

winter wheat in the majority of the
wheat-producing counties to be in
bad condition, much Of it having
been killed by the cold weather Of

condition Of 81 per cent. for the
state, against 1o5 per cent. at this
time last year. That is, from the
conditions reported but 81 per cent.
of normal crop will be raised. The
estimate of the prospective crop in
bushels made by Mr.. Smiley is about
4O,OOOOOO, against 100000 last year.
