A GRAND NAVAL SPECTACLE.
President Orders Great Review
of u. S. Warships.
WILL ASSEMBLE AT OYSTER BAY
Twelve Battleships, Four Cruisers and
Number of Smaller Vessels Will
Take Part.

Acting Secretary of the Navy New
berry received an order from the
President directing that the Atlantic
fleet, under the command of Rear Ad-
miral Robley d. Evans, with Rear Ad.
miral Willard H. Brownson second in
command, be assembled at Oyster
Bay on Labor day, September 8, to
be reviewed by Mr.. Roosevelt. 1t
will be the largest fleet of American
warships ever assembled.
The first-class battleships Rhode
Island, Virginia, Georgia, and New
Jersey, placed in commission three
weeks ago, will participate in the re-
view as part of the big Atlantic
fleet. Twelve battleships, including.
beside these four vessels, the battle
ships Maine, Missouri, Kentucky,
Kearsarge, Alabama, Illinois, Indiana
and Iowa, will form the battleship
squadron which will be personally
commanded by Fighting Bob" Evans.
The armored cruiser squadron, con-
ssting of the modern armored crui-
sers West Virginia, Colorado, Mary
land and Pennsylvania, and command
ed by Rear Admiral Brownson, will
maneuver as unit of the Atlantic
fleet before the President on Septem-
ber for the last time.
Immediately after the grand review
which will form the greatest naval
spectacle ever known in the waters of
the United States, the armored crui-
ser squadron will sail away from
Oyster Bay for the Philippine Islands,
where it will form a part of the big
Asiatic fleet. Upon the arrival of
this squadron in the Orient the battle
ships Wisconsin and Ohio will be
ordered back to the United States,
the former to undergo extensive re-
pairs on the Pacific coast and the
latter to come around to the Atlantic
coast to be the thirteenth battleship
of the Atlantic fleet.
Orders were issued by Acting Secre-
tary Nowberry to the bureau of
navigation to make plans for the
Oyster Bay review, a tentative pro-
gram Immediately will be laid down
and Rear Admiral Evans will be call
ed upon to pass judgment upon it
It is understood that President
Roosevelt will review the fleet on
board the gunboat Mayhower, the
Presidents own vessel. The May
flower is now on duty in the waters
of Santo Domingo, but will be order
ed home in time to participate in the
naval review.
Beside the - battleships and four
armored cruisers, the second and third
torpedo boat foatillas, consisting of
the torpedo boat destroyers Hopkins,
Lawrence. MacDonough, Whipple,
Truxton, Worden and the Wilkes,
Blakely, Delong, Rodgers and Stock
ton, will be included in the fleet
which the President will review.

Taxes AGAINST FIELD HEIRS
Property Valued $1O5,OoO,OOO
Escaped Assessors.
$2,soo,ooo DUE TO THE CITY
Value Of Chicago Millionaire's Estate
for Purposes of Taxation Fixed
at $213,ooo 1000.

Marshall Fields executors will be
asked to pay taxes amounting to
about $2,S00,000. This will be by far
the greatest tax ever levied upon the
property of an individual taxpayer,
and is the practical result of the de-
cision by the board of review fixing
the personal property on which the
Field estate must pay taxes At S130,
100000. The real estate is worth
about $50000,000 additional, making
the total amount of property on which
that estate will have to pay taxes
approximate $1S0,O00,O00.
The larger portion of the assess
ment against the Field estate is for
back taxes on personal property up
on which the late Mr.. Field is held
by the board of review to have avoid
ed paying taxes. The board has gone
back for seven years and levied back
taxes against the Field estate for the
entire period of the existence of the
present taxing machinery, which was
created in 1899.
During the first six years of that
period the late Marshall Field paid on
S2,500,00 of personal property an.
nually, and last year on only $780,
900. total of SIT 100000 in all. The
reviewers declared it their opinion
that the late Mr.. Field escaped taxa
tion on s1O5, 100000 more.
In addition to taxation on this
S195, 100000 and penalty falls by law
upon the Field estate for the taxes
which have been lodged in the past.
Under the provisions of the revenue
law interest not compounded must be
levied upon all back taxes assessed
at the rate of 10 per cent a year.
This interest adds almost a third to
the back taxes the Field estate will
have to pay.
The back taxes total about 81, ,3G5,.
900, while the interest charge approxi
mates slSS,0OO more, making the to-
tai of almost S1,S00,UU0 that the Field
estate will be mulcted for the taxes
the multimillionaire merchant did not
pay during the last seven years of his
life.
The board decided on valuation
of S250O0,O00 for the personal prop
erty belonging to the Field estate on
April / last, and not consisting of
national bank stocks and stocks of
Illinois corporations. Attorney w. G.
Beale reported to the board list of
stocks exceeding that amount.
While the amount of property on
which the Field estate has been ord
cred to pay is officially $780, .,
the big interest charge has the same
effect as if an additional $50, 100000
was incorporated in the list of
for purposes of taxation,
thereby practically increasing the to-
tai value of the estate for purposes
of taxation to $213 100000.

STORM AT ST. LOUIS
One Man Blown From Wagon and
Killed While Excursionists Have
Narrow ESCAPE.

A terrific wind and rain storm
struck st. Louis and vicinity. Lightn-
ing started seven fires in different
parts of the city. A negro, name un-
known, was blown from his wagon
under a passing fire engine and was
killed. Electric wires were blown
down. sheds and q few frame houses
were demolished and a number of peo-
pie were hurt by the debris.
The excursion steamer Liberty, fill
ed with pleasure-seekers caught in
the storm near Alton, ILL.,, was driven
through the Mississippi river at uncon-
trollable speed and dashed into a dixie
on the Missouri side. Rocking and
toppling with the terrorized passen-
gers huddled in the cabin, the prov
of the boat was forced on the gov
ernment dixie while the force of the
wind hurled chairs into the river from
the deck and shattered the cabin win
dOws.
The boat held firmly on the dixie,
however, and when the storm had
abated sufficiently the government
boat Lucia transhipped the passengers
and landed them in Alton.
