TWO MORE STEAMERS SEIZED
NOTIFIED TO STOP ALL SHIPS

London, July 20.-The British
steamers Woodcock and Dalmatia
were held up by the Russians in the
Red sea and detained for three
hours. The captain of the Russian
volunteer fleet steamer ST. Peters
burg has notified the British residents
at Alden to wire the British consul at
Suez and Port Said that he would
seize any British steamers bound for
the far east if the contents of their
packages were not clearly shown on
their manifests according to inter-
national law
Two more steamers of the Russian
volunteer feet now at Odessa have
received confidential orders to leave
for the Red sea and to seize British
vessels which are alleged to be car
rying contraband of war.
A special from St. Petersburg says:
1.-TWO more steamers of the volun-
teer fleet left here July IS, for Sc
bastopol, whence, after coaling and
it is presumed they will pro-
coed to the Red sea-"

Topeka, July 21.-The people OF
Kansas will have their burden OF tax
alton lightened materially this year.
The state equalization board will
either reduce the assessment about
$5O,OOO,O0O over last year. or scale
down the tax levy l mill. This is
possible on account of decreased ap-
preparations for this year. The leg
islature provided that the tax board
should not raise more than S2,5O0,OOO
last year. 1t took that amount to
meet the appropriations. The same
legislature provided that not over
$2.000.O00 should be raised by taxa
ton this year. Appropriations to con-
sumo that much we're also made. Thus
the board this time is not required
to raise within 100000 of what it
had to raise last year. This will en-
able it to cut down the assessment
or the tax levy.
The total assessment of all proper
ty as fixed by the state board last
year, aggregated s3S7,577,259 and the
average tax levy was about ga mills
for state purposes. With only four
fifths as much money to raise this
time the board will be able to reduce
the assessment over $5O,OOO,OO0 or
the tax levy more than mill. 1t may
scale the assessment down $4,000, 900
and the levy down one-half mill. This
hasn't been decided upon as yet.
State taxes bring on most all the
troubles of unequal taxation. Each
county tries to get the best of the
others. II matters not what basis
the assessment is made on so far as
county affairs are concerned. Each
county has to raise so much money tc

TO BE CUT BY STATE BOARD
The Legislature Will Try and Devise Some Other
System Of Apportioning the State Tax
TO LIGHTEN THE BURDEN

pay its own running expenses and
fixed charges. If property is as
sessed at its real value then the
tax levy will be low; if assessed at
half it's real value then the tax levy
will be twice as much, or if assessed
at one-third its value the tax rate
will be three times as great, and so
on. But it is different when it comes
to state taxes. These are parceled
out among the various counties. In
order to avoid paying its share of
state taxes one county will only as
sess its property on one-third or one
fourth its real valuation. This will
make a low assessment. Another
county may assess on one-half its
valuation. Perhaps the cash value of
property in the two counties is about
the same. Thus the county which as
sesses at half value will have to pay
twice as much state taxes as the coun-
ty which assesses at one-fourth value.
unless the state board steps in and
eQualizes. And when it does equalize
the county that is raised registers a
kick and charges that the state board
has given it the worst of it.
The legislature this winter will try
and devise some other system of
apportioning the state tax. If it can
find a suitable system the tax troubles
in Kansas will be solved in a large
measure. AS soon as the different
counties are prevented from trying
to dodge their state taxes then will
they go TO assessing property at its
cash value, as the law provides, in
stead of openly violating the law by
/ fixing up in advance fictitious valu-
alton at from one-fourth to one-half
the real value of property.

Creates An Issue.

Paris, July 22.-The text of foreign
Minister Delcasses note addressed to
the Vatican was communicated to the
the council of ministers. 1t creates
decisive issue, asking for the with
drawal of the letters by which the
Vatican called for the resignation OF
Bishops Geay Of Laval, and Nordez
of Dijon. Otherwise all relations be-
tween France and the Vatican will be
broken off.

is made in regard to Russia's policy
in this matter. 1t is regarded as i'm
possible that the commanders of the
Smolensk and st. Petersburg were
given full power and the officials
therefore are inclined to the grave
conclusion that the Russian govern
ment gave implicit instructions to
the two commanders. The effect on
the stock exchange was seen in a
heavy fall in consols and other gilt
edged securities, on fears of inter
national complications. The dangers
and difficulties Of the situation are
much commented on in the newspa-
pers, which are practically unanimous
in denouncing the dubious and IT.

CHOCTAW- CHICKASAW LANDS
WILL SOON Be SOLD BY BIDS

Muskogee, |. T., July 20.-The Unit
ed States interior department has pre-
pared rules and regulations for the
sale of 445052.23 acres of coal and
asphalt lands of the Chickasaw and
Choctaw nations. Circulars are being
distributed, describing the first tracts
to be offered and the bids on these
offers will be opened by the commits
sioner of Indian affairs in Washing
ton, October 3. ]. Blair Shoenfelt,
the Indian agent for the five civilized
tribes, has been instructed to furnish
whatever information is desired in re-
lation to a description of the lands
to be sold.
AS a matter of convenience the de-
partment has divided the segregated
lands into six districts or divisions, as
follows: McAlister district (No. II,
Wilburton-Stigler district (No. p.
Howe-Poteau district mo 81, McCur-
tain Massey district mo. AZ, Lehigh-
Ardmore district mo. 81, Unbiased Sc
gregated asphalt lands mo. g..
McAlister, or district No. l, will be
the first sold and is the one now being
advertised. The other districts will
be taken up in the order of their num-
bers, bids for district No. to be
opened at the commissioners office
December s, while those for district
No. C, the last, will not be opened
until August Z, 1905. The date upon
which the bids upon these several
tracts are to be opened will be pub
lished for thirty consecutive days
prior to such date.
The proceeds of the sales of these
segregated mineral lands are to be de-
posted in the United States treasury,
and are later to be distributed per
capita TO the members of the two
nations, freedmen excepted. The law
authorizing the sale by the interior
department is contained in treaty
with the Chickasaw-C govern
ment, which was ratified July /, 1902.
The treaty provides that the secre-
tary of the interior should, within six
months after it's ratification, ascertain.
what lands were principally valuable
for their coal and asphalt deposits,
and by written order have them Sc
gregated. with the result that, 4i5.-
052.23 acres were segregated, S3,302.23
acres of which were not leased
