BOARD KNOCKS
OFF A MILLION
PATTERSON AND EoUALIzERs RE
oUcE MEMPHIS STREET RAIL.
WAY ASSESSMENT.
BOARDS WORK IS COMPLETED
Also Show Marked Consideration
For Nashville Traction
Company.

| NASHVILLE. Tenn, Oct. 30.-Sey
eral important increases and reduc
tons were made in the assessment
Of the railroads and other public serv
ice corporations Of Tennessee by tn,
state board OF equaIizers. The mos
! notable decrease in the assessment
of the railroad commission were those
affecting the street railway companies
of Memphis and Nashville, both o.
which were reduced from the Original
| figures nearly a million dollars.
! The assessment on the Nashville
f, Railway & Light Co. which war
placed at $4,S00,o0O by the railroad
commission, was cut down by the
equalizers to $4.5OO,OOO, reduction OF
100000. The Memphis Street Rail
way Company, which was assessed at
$5,f40,0O0 by the railroad commission,
was cut down to $4,50O,000, the same
as the assessment of the Nashville
company. The reason for this reduc-
ton is the already heavy expense Of
these street railway concerns in
street Improvement they have been
forced to make. The Nashville Rail
way & Light Co., for instance, has
expended nearly a million dollars on
the conduit system Of this city, al
though 1t will not derive any direct
benefit from It, The Memphis Street
Railway Company also has spent sew
eral hundred thousand dollars IN
street improvements. An additional
reason for the reductions Is that the
as made by the railroad
commission was ten per cent, 1t is
stated, of the entire gross earnings of
the two companies, and the equalizers
thought this was too high.
The assessments on the steam rail-]
roads, however, were either ratified
Or increased The Frisco and Iron
Mountain roads were raised from $685.
700 to $4,000 a mile, while the South
,rn's assessment was increased 81 900
/ mile on the 241 miles of the main
inc, which means an increase of $241,-
700 on this item alone, and this to-
yether with other increases on the
Southern's property, will raise that
Dads assessment over $350,000. The
illinois Central was also raised $1,000
mile The L. & N assessments
we're left as made by the railroad COM
mission. except a number of small in
reas SEES on certain branch lines. The
anne is true of the ~, G. & st. L.
assessments.

There will be a large crowd of Co
lumbians in Nashville next Saturday
there being a double foot ball attrac-
traction for the day. The Columbia
Military Academy during the morn
ing will play the Bowen School of
Nashville and in the afternoon the
great Observation-Disclosures game will
be played. All of the cadets will

ing the local lads, and also to take
advantage of the opportunity to see

test on Southern gridiron this seas

bend the slightest trouble in defeating

the score. Bowen was defeated only
a few days ago by Branham & Hughes
of Spring Hill, by score Of % to
0, and the Academy aggregation does
not expect to have its goal line
crossed. Whether or not the score
will equal that piled up by Branham
& Hughes or whether or not 1t is the
desire of the team to make that score
has not yet been determined.
Many of the Columbus will spend
