Blood was not shed at the meeting
of the board of equalization today,
but there were several heated disputes
and the lie or its equivalent was pass
ed several. times. The matter under
consideration was the protest OF the
Realty Warehouse company g against
the raising of its assessment from $75
to 100000 4 andsfthe uprotest Of the
Produce Refrigerating company against
a raise from $1,000 to $4,000.
J. w. 'Shadewald, the special deputy
on whose Investigations the raises were
made,, recited the difficulties which he
had been denied admission to the
storage rooms, had been denied access
to the books, had been denied import
ant information, altho he knew that
large quantities of tobacco, spices and
canned goods were stored with the
Realty Warehouse company and large
quantities Of butter, eggs and cheese
with the Produce Refrigerating com
pany. He was interrupted frequently
by the representatives Of the companies
who insisted in positive words "that is
not true!' Mr.. Shadewald was plainly
in passion and was longing for a Sc
questered nook where he could wreak
vengeance, but managed to contain him
self.
It was denied that the assessor haG
been denied admission, and averred that
the warehouses were open for inspec

asked for written pass it was refused
on the plea that it was not necessary.

the truth. The mental picture which
my son took of the murderer when he
looked over the transom on the night
DR.. Gebhardt was murdered was not the
photograph of DR.. Koch.
tHThe mental picture which Asa re-
ceived of the murderer was not DR..
