CARNEGIE AFTER BRYAN.
Shall Demagoguc Like Bryan Ap-
 point Our Judges? He Asks.

New York Oct. 29-Andrew Carnegie who returned from Europe today on the steamship .Adriatic, had this to say about campaign questions;
 Necessarily I have been a good bit out of touch with the political situation, am informed, however that within the last few weeks the chances for the election Of Mir. Hughes as governor of the state of New York have been great ly increased There now seems to be little possibility that he will be de- feated
 Tt is my opinion that the election of Mir. Bryan would mean great trag- edy to the country He would have the appointment of certain justices of the United States supreme court, This means that for twenty years to come the supreme court would be marked by his appointments, The senate might be made practically helpless in several ways It seems to mo that the people should be asking of each other, Shall a mana demagoguc-like Bryan ap- point our iudges?'

INCREASE TO STAND.
Assessors Sustained by Relief Board
 in Central Raises,

According to the decision of the board of relief the assessors are justified in their raise in the assess ments, especially as to the increase placed on centrally located property and there will be no change. The board is in session in city hall to-day preparing its report on the appeals presented to 1t by property owners who consider the assessment on their estates eXorbitant and had but little debate before arriving at it's decision
 The action of the assessors in rais- ing the assessment on central proper ty brought forth rumors of a great remonstrance, but when the hearings of the board were concluded week or so ago it was figured out that only about l2 per cent. of those included in the increase had appealed from it., That was so small n proportion that the board of relief is of the unanimous opinion that the raise of the assessors was justified and will let it stand.
