THE RAILROAD ASSESSMENT.

The increase in the assessment of
the railroads in the state, as made by
the state board of equalization,
amounts to about twenty per cent of
their assessed valuation. From the
figures given it will be seen that the
Increase is from a little over $22,000,-
900 to nearly s2S,000,000, the figures
of the increase being some $5,400, 900.
This is the largest arbitrary increase
made in any class of property by far,
and will give additional needed
revenue to the state, as we'll as to all
municipal subdivisions that levy tax
on railroad property. The increase in
the assessment of railroads in the
state has been gradual. Low water
mark was struck during the pop-demo-
cratic administration of 1884 and
since that time there has been a
gradual increase, as the value of the
property increased and the develop
ment of the state warranted. The
main lines of the roads in this state
are now paying On valuation Of
$4,000 a mile. In addition to this,
side tracks are assessed. at $500 a
mile, an assessment that in some
other states is included in the main
line assessment. There can be no
question but railroads are paying on a.
valuation quite, If not a little more
than in proportion with other prop
erty Lands in the state are assessed
at a figure usually only a fourth or
fifth of the real value. At the aver
age rate of four per cent for taxation,
the roads will pay into the different
counties, school districts, cities and
the state, about $1,000 to 1925, 900
additional in the way of taxes as a
result of the boards action. ~.

REvoLuTIoNlsTs CONFUSED.
Police Arresting Leaders of All the
Labor Organizations.

ST. Petersburg, Aug. 6.-Late this
afternoon it was evident that the
government has practically succeed
ed in crushing the organization oi
strike leaders here. The central com
mittee of the Social Democrats was
captured and placed in prison early
this morning, and the greatest confu
sion prevails in revolutionary camps
The hope of the revolutionists is now
centered at Moscow. The st. Peters
burg railroad committee has decided
to await the result of the strike at
Moscow before attempting to order
out the men. Wednesday is now the
day on which they say the railroad
strike will begin The employees OF
several street railroad lines who
struck Saturday have resumed work
Unless dispatches from the inter
ior within a few hours entirely
change the situation, the general
strike promises to prove a complete
failure Although the liberals are
strongly opposed to the course of the
government, they shrink from precip-
itating a revolution and the horrors
of war. Not only is the sympathy of
the public lacking, but in ST. Peters
burg the leaders of the various labor
organizations find many of their fol
lowers lukewarm, and even in open
rebellion against the strike orders.
The central committee of the rail
road mems unions has not yet so far
as known issued a formal order to
strike. If the train service is not
brought to a standstil1 the collapse
of the strike is inevitable.
Moscow, Aug. 6.-All the railroad
stations this morning were occupied
by troops and heavy reinforcements
were sent to the industrial sections
The police are arresting members OF
the central committee of the trades
unions. No trains left Moscow this
morning over the Kazan railroad.

clothing had not yet caught fire. Very
little damage was done to the wall
and floor inside. There was perhaps
not more than a quart of gasoline
in the tank of the stove, and that
burned out without an explosion.
The trouble is attributed to the
attempt to use engine gasoline for
fuel. There was no gasoline obtaina-
BILE Saturday at the stores, and some
engine gasoline was taken home
from the Record office for use until
the right kind of gasoline could be
obtained. Engine gasoline is not in
tended for stoves or for Illuminating
purposes, and we are now convinced
that the printed warning on the big
naptha tanks means something.

Heals the Sick With Prayer.

Rev. Henry Blandford, native of
London England, with headquarters
at Memphis, Tenn, plans to open
series of meetings on the Lea lots at
the corner of Main and Fifth streets
Wednesday night His meetings will
be in the open air and free to all,
with a free-will collection to keep up
the expenses. Rev. Mr.. Blandford has
been here a month, in company with
his wife, seeing the country and tak-
ing a vacation. He met several old
friends from the Beaumont, Texas,
country, where he neld meetings last
winter, and they used their influence
to induce him to open the meetings.
He claims to cure all kinds of
chronic diseases by prayer, and his
only medicine is faith in the Lord
Jesus Christ. He asks the people to
see and hear him before they either
believe or censure MIN.

A Dangerous Experience.

Mrs. Geo. A. Pickett, wife of the
Record editor, had a narrow escape
from being burned alive this morning
by a gasoline stove Tne stove did
not exactly explode, but in some way
the whole atmosphere of the room
seemed to take fire from gas that
had evaporated either from the tank
or through some leak She was not
pouring gasoline nor were any of
the burners open when the match
was applied and the flame leaped to
the ceiling. Mrs. Puckett closed one
door of the kitchen and grabbed a
large piece of rag carpet which she
threw over the stove, but still the
fire ran up to the tank. Then she
picked up the stove and carried it
outside where she fell exhausted Sne

ing, but her neighbors Mrs. Gilmore
and Mrs. Martin had seen the flames
through a window and reached her

BIG BANK FAILURE.
Whereabouts of Chief Officials are
Unknown.

Chicago, Aug. b.-In0 MLWduheS
Avenue State Bank, one of the 1arg-
est banks in the downtown district,
and having deposits over three mill
ion dollars, today closed it's doors,
following a run. The first intimation
of trouble was the appearance at the
bank of twenty policemen who had
been despatched to prevent anticipat-
ed disorders, the police department
having been notified officially that
one of the officers of the bank had
absconded. The suspicious of the de-
positors were aroused by the sight of
policemen stationed in Nont of the
bank and in a short time a large
number of them demanded their mon
ey. The turbulence of the crowd was
finally quelled by the policemen.
The bank was organized in 1890
by Paulo Stensland, who is president
The capital stock is $25O,OOO with
surplus of s250,OO0 Of the three mill
ion dollars deposits a large part, 1t
is said, consists of the savings of
workingmen. President Stensland is
now in Minnesota on a vacation. Hen
ry w. Herring, the cashier is miss
ing, and a warrant charging him with
embezzlement has been sworn out.
State Bank Examiner c. c. Jones
has issued a statement that the
whereabouts of the officers of the
bank are unknown to him, and the
bank is without an official head. The
odore Stensland has been in charge
of the bank during the absence of his
father, the president. Last Saturday
he discovered that the bank was in
serious condition and notified Cash
ier Herring that there would be an
investigation this morning. The bank
is now in the hands of the auditor
of state.
The patrons of the bank are most
ly Polish working people The state
ment issued June 10, gave the liabil-
tiles at $4467,474, of which $3,115,
1876 were savings deposits and $685.
S91 deposits subject to check. Loans
and discounts, all said to be good,
amount to s3,223,172.
Reports were general that the al
legged defalcation would amount to
$2OO, 900. 1t is said that ONE OF THE
OFFICIALS HAS BEEN GAMBLING
ON HORSE RACES. Theodore Stems
land, son of the president, said his
father would return tomorrow.
LATER This afternoon Theo-
dore Stensland said he did not be
lieve that Cashier Herring's accounts
were wrong or that Herring had alb

days at a time, and probably had
gone now for a short vacation. The
bank has over a million dollars cash
on hand.
