BASEBALL BREEZES.

New York, Jan "A. G. Spalding, khe enjoined president of the National league returned yesterday from his trip south, where he has been resting ever since the base ball upheayal at the Fifth Avenue hotel three weeks ago. On January 2 Spalding, as an in dividual. sent out q circular letter to all the league clubs, informing them that E. B. Talcott stands ready to buy the New York club, and asking that re- plies be sent to him not later than yes terday. Spalding up to a late hour last night had heard from the Phila- delphia, Brooklyn, Chicago, Pittsburg and Boston clubs, but before giving the correspondence to the public he de cided to give little leeway to Brush, Robison and Knowles (Freedman). The letters will be out to-day. The fact that the Boston club has expressed some sort of an opinion not altogether unfavorable would seem to indicate that there may be some hope left for the Hubs triumyirate.

aEoRelA's TAXABLE PROPERTY.
Returns Show Increase of About
Twelve Million Dollars.

WE'VE Milllon OolIaIS'
Atlanta, Aug. 4.-The tax returns
81 counties Of the state have been re-
oeiyed at the comptroller generals Of
fee. OF this number 55 show an in
crease In the returns, while SO have
decreased. The total amount of in
crease is $4,9G4,131, and the decrease
is $1,438814, showing net gain of
$3,525,317 in the returns of general
property received so far.
There are yet 46 counties to be
heard from, including all of the coun
ties containing the large cities, with
the exception of Muscogee. The coun,
ties containing the large cities almost
always show an increase in taxable
property every year. Judging by the
present returns, however, it may be
predicted that the returns of general
property will show an increase Of
something like $6,0000 900 or more.
Good increases are expected from Full
ton Chatham, Bibb, Richmond, Floyd
and other counties as the value Of
city property has been on the upward
trend
The returns of railroad, telegraph,
telephone and express companies,
which are by law, made directly to
the comptroller general, will show
about the same increase this year as
last. or about $5,O0O,0OO to $6.OOO,000.
This will make the total net increase
of property values in Georgia this
year something like $10.O0O00O to $12,-
100000, which is about $4,000, 900 less
than last years increase.
The increase in general taxable
property last year was about $4,000
600, and together with the railroads,
etc, the net gain for 1901 amounted
to more than $22000,00O.
