Logan Lambert BACK in Jail.

DAKOTA CITY, Neb., May 16.-tSpecial)
Logan Lambert was yesterday brought
here from Sioux Falls, s. D., by Sheriff H.
c. Hansen and lodged in Jail. Lambert
had just completed "A sentence in the Sioux
Falls pentitentiary imposed upon him by
the United States federal court at Omaha
on the charge of introducing liquors upon
the Winnebago reservation. Owing TO his
Imprisonment upon this charge the bonds
of 1900 he was under for his appearance
at the district court of this county on the
charge of assault with intent to do great
bodily harm upon the person Of Rev.
Father Joseph Schell became forfeited and
he was accordingly placed in jail, being
brought direct here from the penitentiary.
The assault charged against Lambert was
committed in this place about a year ago
and was most cowardly one, Lambert in
weighing Father Scheu to accompany him
into a stall in a livery barn on the pretext
of wishing to converse privately with him,
and there assaulting the priest, breaking
his jaw in two places, which confined him
in hospital over a month.

CFrom a stan Correspondent

LINCOLN. Neb.. May 16.-(Special9 -
After paying no attention TO motion by
Auditor Searle TO go into executive session.
the State Board of Assessment this morning
voted to value the Northwestern at $3.50
a mile the same last year and this after
noon voted to assess the Burlington at
&3S $50 a mile and the st. Paul & Omaha at
Si250o a mile, the same as last year.
1t required two ballots TO settle the North
western and on the last Mickey and Nor
tensen voted for S35,OOO a mile and Eaton
Searle and Galusha for SS2,5OO on the first
ballot the vote was S32 80; S327OO; $3.50:
$4,000. The figures were written on little
slips of paper and no record was made Of
the votes
The figures may be changed, but change
Is not in the least likely as the majority
members are opposed to any increase in
the assessment Of the Northwestern and
Mortensen is opposed TO increasing the
Burlington Yesterday Galusha. Senrle and
Mickey voted against a reduction Of the
Missouri Pacific.
When the board came uD to the Union
Pacific this afternoon a recess was taken
until tomorrow at 10 o'clock, but from the
present indications IL is likely the Union
Pacific will be assessed at the same figures
as last year, though Mortensen and Mickey
say they will work for an increase.
This is the first time on record in recen.
years the board members have voted by
ballot and not by roll call and it is also
the first time since 1904 that an effort has
been made to go into executive session
when vote was being taken. That Searle,
Galusha and Eaton will vote as a unit on
! all motions seems certainty and Mickey
and Mortensen will vote together To-
morrow Mortensen ana Mickey will make
an effort to get the Northwestern figures
! changed and the road increased at least
/ $3.50 a mile.

House Finishes Discussion in Conn
mIttee of the Whole

WASHINGTON. May 16.-The naval ap-
preparation bill, carrying nearly $lO0, ,OOO,-
0o0 was completed today in the house
after one OF the busiest days of the
present congress. The feature of the
days debate grew out of the attempt to
defeat the appropriation for the largest
battleship OF its class in the world, and
the tenor of the speeches for the bill
was that the American republic must be
abreast of the nations of the world in
the strength of its navy. The opponents
talked of peace, disarmament and arbitra-
tion and insisted that there was no need
of such a large navy. The amendment
introduced by Mr.. Burton of Ohio, to
