BRITISH SHIP LEASED
FOR PANAMA SERVICE
Governments Action in sanctioning Use
of Steamer Flying Foreign Flag
Subjected to Criticism.

NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-Recause there Is
not available American steamships, the
management of the Panama Railway and
Steamship Company say, the British
steamer Dunottar Castle, which carried
Lord Roberts, Lord Kitchener aud General
Sir Reders Butler to the Transvaal to
fight the Beers, has been leased by the
United States government, and sails today
for Colon with Secretary James Buckiin
Bishop of the mann Canal Commission
and 160 other passengers aboard.
This leasing of a ship flying a foreign
nag and manned by a foreign crew has
subjected the government to no little criti-
cism. As the recent launching of the
Creole, the latest addition to the Morgan
line fleet, E. H. Hartman said that If the
powers that be at Washington chosts to
use foreign bottoms in coastwise trade,
which the law clearly forbids, he would
carry coal around Cape Horn to Pacific
ports in foreign bottoms.
No secret is made at the offices OF the
Panama Steamship Company OF the Iact
that the Dunotter Castle was leased upon
the entire approval of the Secretary or
War, who is in actual control of the com
pany, but 1t Is stated there was no alter
native. The stress of trade and the fact
that one of the ships Of the line, the
Alliance, had to be retired for extensive
repairs, made 1t necessary to secure an
other steamer. No American steamer was
available, so the Dunottar Castle had to
be hired.

Of the births last year were Polish. All UP

the old colonial mansions are occupied as

one hears stories of bad overcrowding and
a payment of fifteen cents a night for a
place to lie OF the floor.
However well one may hin of the Pole
the New Englander nay be pardoned a
pang of regret as he sees the old American
stock shrink away. partly through with
drawal to the money-making centres,
partly by a sort of racial dry rot which
shows in the miserably deficient birth rate.

MARKED INCREASE IN
PIG IRON INQUIRY.
Iron Trade Review Says That a General
Buying Movement Has Been Started.
Tendency Toward Firmness.

CLEVELAND. O.. Aug. THE Iron
Trade Review today says:
There is a marked increase in inquiry
for pig iron in Eastern markets. and a
buying movement of some proportions has
been started in New York, but in the
Central West the pig iron markets are
~listless. although prices show little>change.
It is understood that the corporation is
willing to take from 10000 to 5000 tons
Of Bessemer pig iron at S22 valley furnace
There is a scarcity of Bessemer, but an
ample supply of basic is obtainable.
Although the buying of steel rails is not
general, contracts for $4,000 tons hav been
placed in Chicago. Railroads are showing
more of a tendency to buy. and the mar
ket in track material is stronger, especial
lv in spikes and bolts.
Lower prices for scrap are having effect
on bar iron. and the quotation of Loco
PittsburG has been shaded. The present
tendency is toward irmness. One concern
which has been we'll known for its ten
dencv to name low prices for bar iron,
has been placed IN the hands Of a re-

TAX BOARD CONSIDERS
COUNTY VALUES ON P. S.
Assessment Duplicates to Be Ready for
Board at Meeting of Next
Tuesday,.

The County Tax Board had a secret ses-
sion today, at which 1t went over the
figures again that have been presented for
its consideration covering the taxable
property of the Public Service Corporation
in several of the suburban municipalities,
where the returns are supposed. to have
been made too low, as compared With those
of last year. The board expects to have
this matter in shape before Its annual
meeting, next Tuesday.
At that meeting 1t is expected, also, that
the board will have in its possession
duplicates of the assessments made by the
assessors in various parts of the county,
as the law calls for their filing on the first
Tuesday in August. On these reports the
board will base its valuations, and on
these again fix the tax rate. This will. be
done probably on or before the third Tues
day in August.
As the reports have not vet been fled,
no totals have yet been made up, no exact
idea of the valuations, and, consequently,
of the tax rate can be got at.
The board will also have a meeting Mon
day, when it will take up the matter of
the assessment of the big Henry Graves
estate. in Orange.

$4,000 ASSESSMENT
ON INSURANCE COMPANY
New Jersey Plate Glass Corporation
Fails to Be Exempted on
Personality.

The City Tax Board today made the
personality assessment of the New Jer-
sey Plate Glass Insurance Company
$50, 900, instead of the nominal sum of
81, 800 that has been paid previously.
The company claimed exemption
from personally tax or the same score
as the fire insurance companies. The
board ruled, however, that the business
transacted by the company did not
come under their head. 1t was, there
fore, decided to raise the tax to $50, 900.
This will make UP for the loss of
$50, 900 nominal tax, for which the
Fidelity, under the new insurance laws,
claimed exemption. The ratable list of
this concern was fixed at $443, 900.
