MILWAUKEE's grand jury has

MILWAUKEE'S grand jury has
been doing a land Office business
for several months. and to wind
up their list of some one hundred
and thirty indictments. has final
ly returned a true bill against
Charles E. Pfster, one Of the
best known capitalists and poll
ticians in the state. Mr.. Pfster
is accused of having wrongfully,
converted of his own use some
fourteen thousand dollars in
money belonging to the Wiscon-
sin Rendering Company. Mr..
Pfster has given bail, and has
pun chased claim of $6542
against the corporation he is &C
cused of deffauding, and has
ommenced suit on the claim.
The Rendering Company will
have to either pay or come in and
prove that Pfster owes them the
fourteen thousand dollars, or any
part of it, that he is accused of
having stolen. In this way Mr..
Pfster hopes to bring the matter
of the charges against him into
court at once, instead Of waiting
the lingering process of trial Tn
der the grand jury Indictment.
Mr.. Pfster has long been before
the public, mainly through his
activity in political matters andas
a great flnancier. but the thought
sDf his being dishonest is some
thing that has never occurred to
the people of Wisconsin, and
more particularly to the people
of Milwaukee, and the probable
tiles are that Mr.. Pfster will be
fully able toprove his entire in
nocence of anything of a dis
honest nature. The Indictment
has naturally caused sensation,
and Pfster's political enemies
aretrying to make the most Of it.

National League MagDates Adopt
stringent Rules on Subject.

NEW YORK, Dec. A-StTingent measures
for the maintenance OF order on the ball
field were adopted today by the National
League of Base Ball clubs, after which the
annual meeting was declared adjourned.
The president OF the league Is vested with
absolute power i'm dealing with managers
and disorderly players and II is evident
from the tone of the resolutions passed on
the subject that the national organization is
determined to stamp out all forms of
rowdyism in the players.
Following the usual custom the president
was appointed as a committee Of one on
schedule and IL was decided that 16 games
will be played during the coming season
The National league playing season will
begin Thursday, April IL, and close Octo-
Der 10.
AT the meeting OF the American Associa-
ton of Minor Leagues today a report was
received from the conference committee on
the drafting of players that both the Ma
tional and American leagues had agreed to
draft but one man, fixing the drafting price
at 81, coo. The date and place OF the regular
annual meeting was changed from January
IL at San Francisco to the second Tuesday
In January at Chicago. An effort was made
to have the present meeting stand as the
annual meeting, but this was voted down.
1t was reported that agreements had been
reached with the major organizations that
as many players as may be desired can be
drafted from leagues in classes Il, G and
d. The drafting price In class b was raised
from $500 to $50 IN class c from 500 10
$500 and in class d from $500 to $500

1895.
Prior TO 1904 the Assessors of Butler
County had not performed their duty. The
State Board of Equalization prior to the
year 1904 assessed the properties OF the
various railroads in this State at a figure
approxmating one-sixth OF their real mar
ket value. In Butler County, and other
Counties Of this State, the assessed valua-
ton of the property actually assessed, In
stead of being assessed at a one-sixth
value was. In the majority of instances.
assessed at from one-tenth to ons-twenti-
eth of real value. This striking disparity
resulted in the railroads carrying a larger
proportional burden OF taxation than other
citizens of Butler and other Counties.
The attempt in 1904 to have all property
in the State assessed at one-fifth OF its
sessed value OF railroads and other property
in Butler County which explains the diff
ferences complained of in the resolu-
tons.
The farms of Butler County Cor years
had been returned at 1854 per acre, or
about per cent of their real value, for
every one knows that since 1889 the average
value OF farm lands in Butler County has
been at least $50 per acre. For the year
1904 these lands were assessed at $3.50 per
acre. or 1850 full value. Even the as
