SPREADING RAILS CAUSE WRECK
Train Plunges Down Embankment.
Twenty Persons Injured.

Kansas City. March 7.-Burling
ton passenger train No. 4. for Chica
go, was derailed at Kearney, No.,
rs miles north Of here today and
went over fifteen foot emoank-
ment. Twenty persons were injured,
four seriously.
The wrecked train was made up
of baggage car, smoker and two
coaches. 1t is an accommodat ton
train that stops at every station be-
tween Kansas City and Chicago and
was not due in Chicago till Sunday
morning. The accident was caused
by spreading rails The train was not
running fast and this fact probably
prevented more serious results. All
but the smoker turned over and went
half way down the embankment.

THIS COUNTY REPRESENTED.
John E. Gale Appeared at Taxation
Hearing in Montpelier.

John L. Gale of Guilford was the
only representative of Windham coun-
ty who spoke at the public meeting of
the state double taxation commission
in Montpelier Wednesday. He favored
cutting off all offsets because many
men, especially those near the New
Hampshire and Massachusetts, borders,
claimed offsets for debts owing when
it was not possible to discover wheth-
er or not the debts claimed were real
ly owed He also favored placing in
dividuals who make loans on real es-
tate on the same basis as savings banks
or entirely relieving the savings banks
from the present tax of 40 of ! per
cent. This would reduce the revenue
of the state about ST. 1000 and it would
be necessary to discover some meth.
cd. such as direct inheritance tax, an
income tax or something of that sort
to make up the deficiency. He favored
cutting off all offsets for debts owing.
1t appeared in discussion that
while the offsets returned to the secre-
tary of state amounted to about 1885,,
100000 the real amount of offsets that
could be properly allowed was about
$27 100000. He also favored exempt
ing from taxation all money loaned on
real estate at rate not exceeding four
and half per cent.
Mr.. Gale was not in favor of making
inventories public, but a discussion
arose that somewhat changed his opin-
ion. 1t was shown that while there
were 1856 inventories examined by
the agents of the tax commission last
summer only 1889 were reported as
legal inventories. There may be many
more inventories that are honest and
make proper return of mans tax
able property but only 1852 men made
out returns that met the requirement
of the law. 1t was brought out that
the inventory of one corporation con-
sisted of letter from the clerk of its
president stating that the president
believed the property should be taxed
the same as the year before. Accord
ingly the listers entered the property
of the corporation at 5000 while it is
well known by every one familiar with
matters in the town that the corpora
ton owns property worth at least
100000.
