II IN STATE: J. ! FUND IND
REPORT OF TREASURER oeplN
FOR OCTOBER MAKES FINE.
= SHOWING. ~. j

CHARLESTON. Nov. 1.-The re.
port Of State Treasurer Newton ogdin
made. public last night, for the period
covered by the month of October,
shows how well the tax reform meas.
ures are making good in predicting
the revenues needed for the running
OF. the State establishment. This past
month is the first OF the new fiscal
year Of the State, and the showing is
therefore the more significant.
Treasurer ogdin's report shows a
balance in the general State fund Of
$251.S95.61, which is compared with
100000 for the same period last year,
and sl5O,OOO for thesclose of October,
1905, thus making an increase OF about
$50 per cent. compared with 1906, and
&C per cent as compared with October,
1906.
The report shows that the State is
In q better financial condition than
ever before, and that the tax reform
revenue measures are making good, as
1t was claimed by their authors they
would make good, but which was de.
MED so strenuously by those leglsla.
tors who opposed their adoption.
1t is predicted that on the showing
made in Treasurer ogdin's report the
State board Of public works will be
enabled to wipe out the last remaining
five cents Of the direct State tax levy,
which has been gradually cut down
until now 1t is at the lowest mark on
record. This wiplng ou. Of the States
direct tax will surely come next year.

would be PIainville. which would pc
a natural division point, it being a.

would run each way This would

Most of the So, 500, 900 of stock is own
ed by ]. Pierpont Morgan and according
to Mr.. Sullivan this stock is entirely
wiped out and worthless.
Mr.. Sullivan said there are no agree
rnents with any outsiders regarding the
disposal of the road, although 1t IS be
Iieyed the road will be sold or leased to
steam roads entering Toledo and USED
by them on the cooperative plan
The property consists ofc a belt road
which circles the city with passenger

Mr.. Sullivan said if Mr. Morgan
should purchase the road from the bond
