and where the distance is greater
than $50 miles. they make a special
arrangement, which is on about the
same basis as the above scale, SO you
can easily see that the Topeka milleTs
have an advantage over the original
shippers of the grain.
We viii also state that when the
railroad companies were making these
reductions and giving the benefit to
the millers, they did not forget to look
after the grain man as well, by grant
ing him two stops in transit; for ex-
ample, if a car of grain originated at
Mulvane, Kansas, on the Santa Fe,
south of Wichita, it could be shipped
to Wichita, reeleaned and then ship
ped on to Topeka and milled in tram
sit on the through rate. of 1412c per cwt
to the Missouri river. This would also
entitle the Topeka milleTs to free
haul on the manufactured psOduct to
the Missouri river. so it can be readily
seen that the railway companies give
the grain dealers a chance to buy the
grain out on the line and bring it to
his cleaning house and put it in shape
for the miller.

products, such as bran, flour, etc, and

rR1ENN1AL DUTY.
Work of the Assistant Assessors Under
Law Of 1902.

The triennial assessment of all the real
estate in the District Of Columbia will
shortly be commenced by the board of as
sistant assessors of the District. This task
is one entailing a great amount of hard
work upon the assessors. besides consum-
ing several months time. Prior to under
taking the assessment of the District real
estate the board Of assistant assessors this
morning held a consultation with the; Com
missioners with reference to the matter
The members of the board and the Com
>missioners discussed the various features
of the work and the plans for conducting
the assessment. 1t is pointed out, however.
that in this work the board of assessors
works without instructions or directions
from the Commissioners. The assessments
are made by the board of assistant assess
ors and later reviewed by the board of
equalization and review. composed of MEM
bers Of the board. and finally approved by
the Commissioners in regular form.
This is the first Iriennial assessment undcr
the new law Of 1902 relating to the matter,
which requires that the real estate in the
District shall be assessed at not less than
two-thirds OF its true value. The term
true value" has been defined by the courts
as meaning the value determined by q will
ing seller and a willing purchaser. as dis
tinguished from the value placed upon the
property at forced sale.

USED NAME OF A SENATOR.
Local Apartment House Management
Swindled by a Sharper.

The name of Senator Patterson of Colo
RADIO was used yesterday afternoon by
shrewd swindler who succeeded In getting
s62 so from the management of the High
lands, where the senator has apartments.
The scheme was worked by the delivery OF
bundle which contained an old overcoat
worth about % cents. 1t was represented
that it contained new suit The swlndler
laid his plans well, calling at the High
lands about O'Clock In the afternoon,
when he had reason to believe the sena-
tor would not be at home Several days
ago the clerk in the Office at the High
lands was asked for the initials OF the SEN
ator and yesterday he was told over the
wire that package was expected by the
senator and asked to settle the ball 1t was
taken for granted that the telephone mes
sage was sent by the senator's private sec
rotary, and there was no hesitation In pay
ing for the bundle when It was delivered
by a respectfully dressed man who claimed
that he represented Hamilton. the tailor.
The tailor's address was given as 84e
Pennsylvania avenue, but the clerk did
not recall at that time that there was no
such number. The result was that when
the sealed bundle was delivered the man
who came with it was given check for
SIS and $3.50 in cash. The affair appeared
more like an April fool joke than any
thing else when the bundle was opened and
found to contain an old coat. 1t was a
joke so far as the senator was concerned.
but the managers Of the apartment house
could not see 1t In that light.
When it was learned that a fraud had
been perpetrated the police were called upon
to make an investigation. 1t was then
about IL o'clock at night and the swandler
had had ample time to reach New York
or some other equally distant point. 1t Is
believed by the police that the individual
who obtained the money yesterday has been
operating the same game in other cities.
Reports from other places have been re-
ceived to show that a number OF persons
have been victimized in this way.
