SAME ASSESSMENT
Attorney H. c. Starr Before
State Tax Board.
RICHMOND GAS COMPANY.

Showing in his report to the State
Board of Tax Commissioners Monday
afternoon that the deficit of the Chi
cago, Cincinnati & Louisville Railroad
Company amounted to 100000 during
the year of 1906, II. c.. Starr of Rich
mond asked that the board allow the
present assessment of $1,000 a mile
for the company's property in this
state to remain for the coming year.
Mr.. Starr presented figures showing
the increase in operating expenses for
the past year, but said that by the
next time he appeared before the
board, the road would be in better con-
dition than it is at present Mr.. Starr
also appeared for the Richmond natur-
al gas company.
In behalf of the Big Four Railroad
interests of the State. Frank Littleton
asked that all the assessments against
his company's roads. which range from
$1,000 to $4,000 mile, be fixed as
the assessments for the coming year.
Anticipating the decrease in receipts
for his road on account of the two
cent fare law passed by the last Gen
eral Assembly, T. 3. Carpenter of
Cleveland asked that the Nickel Plate
assessment be lowered from $45 900 to
$4,000

MEAT INSPECTION.

Announcement that the city council
has passed a meat inspection ordin-
ance that probably will secure gov
eminent inspectors, will be hailed
with delight by the people of Rich
nond for it means that their health
and lives will be much better protect
ed II will be no mean distinction for
this city to have all its meat govern
ment inspected, as few places of this
size are able to bring about SO fortu-
nate condition. In this the Palla-
dunn takes special pride as the agita-
ton for such inspection was original
with this paper, which has been urg-
ing action for months. Those who at
first were skeptical of the conditions
as pictured by this paper, have since
been fully convinced and are anxious
that every precaution be taken. They
are now alive to the horrors of tuber-
culosis meat and the dire possibilities
that the sale of such may entail. They
are also as firmly convinced that ev-
cry safeguard possible should be set
about the milk supply and this is the
next important subject that should be
taken up.

TARIFF BUREAU TO

u. G. Coueffer Named as
Chief of This New Penn
Sylvania Department.
1T HAS A LOCAL EFFECT.
WORK OF CLERKS AND FREIGHT
OFFICIALS HERE WILL BE LES
SENED-LOCAL FIRM WILL GET
SOME OF THE PRINTING.

Notice has been received by the
local Pennsylvania freight Offices OF
the appointment of u. G. Coueffer, as
chief of the tariff bureau recently in
augurated by the Pennsylvania rail-
road. His Offices will be located in
the Union station at Pittsburg. He
will be under the direction of the gen.
eral freight agent and general ore
and coal agent, and will have charge
of compilation and publishing or
freight tariffs and division sheets and
per centages, and such other mat
tiers pertaining to the freight traffic as
may be assigned from time to time to
the tariff bureau.
Work Here Lessened.
Establishment of the freight tariff
bureau in Pittsburg will greatly lessen
the work on the clerks and local
freight officials in that they will not
hereafter be required to compile and
have published tariff sheets for the
Richmond division. The freight tariff
bureau, will be conducted on about
the same lines as is the passenger tar
if bureau, and Mr.. Coueffer will file

as well as all other divisions west of
Pittsburg.
Some Local Printing.
All tariff sheets will be ordered
printed from the headquarters in
Pittsburg. A local establishment
which has printed the tariff sheets,
almost since the establishment of the
after receive its printing orders from
the Smoky City" The Pittsburg
printing establishment will be swamp
ed by the work and it will therefor
be necessary for the bureau to turn
it's work over to some of the printing
establishments which have heretofore
done it, ard it will be through this
that the local firm will benefit.

Has Come into Full Ownership
Of the Pennsylvania, Ac-
cording to Information.
OFFICIALS ON INSPECTION.
NOR THAT AN EXTENSION MAY
BE BUILT TO HAGERSTOWN-
GUY McCABE'S NEW DUTIES.

Local Pennsylvania officials have
been officially advised to the effect,
but as yet no official announcement
has been received, that on May l, the
Pennsylvania railway will take con-
troll of the Chicago, Indiana and East
ern railway, now in operation between
Converse, Ind, and Muncie.
In conjunction with the word passed
around among the officials in Rich
mond. is the announcement that Guy
McCabe. freight agent of the local
division, will have charge of the
freight department of the road and
all freight subjects will be handled
from the Richmond Office. The trans
portation subjects will come under the
jurisdiction of superintendent l. w.
Geer of Logansport.
Making an Inspection.
Mr. McCabe in company with Supt.
Geer of Logansport and w. A. Sam
pie of this city are going over the
line of the new aquisition, in order
10 become acquainted with its charac-
teristics and to come into close touch
with the present management, and
study the changes that will have to be
made in the present operation that it
may better serve the needs of the
Pennsylvania.
The line is now only forty three
miles long and will mean much to the
Pennsylvania in that it can get into
Muncie. and make 4 strong bid for
freight traffic to eastern points. By
doubling back to Converse from Mum
,icb int ~ &,
meets with the Logansport-Bradford
section o. the Richmond division,
freight can then be taken eastward
quicker than on any other line operat-
ing out of Muncie to eastern points.
Project for Extension.
AS transportation line it helps the
scarcely at all as it
stands at present, but the old project
Of the road being extended to Hagers-
town or New Castle is being revived,
and if the line is so extended, Rich
mond will have good connection with
over the Pennsylvania. Should
the line be extended to HagerStown,
the Pennsylvania could then run its
fast trains to Chicago via HagerStown
and Muncie, and materially shorten
the distance between the two big
cities. Whether or not this will be
done remaiRs to be seen, and although
1t has been announced locally that
the acquisition would soon be made
to conform to Pennsylvania standards
no announcement of the extension of
the line to Hagerstown is made al
though it is thought that this will
eventually be the case. The line will
be a valuable one to the new owner.
