COUNCIL WILL
 INCREASE RATE
 NOT VALUATION
Board Finishes Labor With Result of Practically Same Total as Start Make Tax Rate Tonight.

 The city council completed its long and arduous toll as a board of equal ization Monday evening and the rate of assessment will be fixed at spe- cial meeting to be held this evening.
 The result of the equalization re- mains practically the same as before the process was started, the few cases in which the valuation of prop erty was raised being about balanced by instances where it seemed just to make a reduction.
 The rate of taxation that will be named will be higher than last year of necessity, according to Mayor Edmundson. There will be no change made in valuation of the city property as it appears under the present assessment Such a change would require an entire alteration of the work of the assessor. Much more difficult than the raising of the per centage of taxation which will an swer the same purpose.
 The new list of equalization will be published as soon as completed the list including also all cases where an increase or reduction in valuation has been made.

SEWER FLOODSSTREET
 ENVIRONMENTS
Tombstone Canyon Roadway Made Nasty MudhoIe, While Some Property Damage Is Done by Flow,

A stretch of roadway between the residence of Charles Laughlin on Upper Tombstone Canyon and the Fair Store on Upper Main street has for two days been a Ioblolly of filthy mud. owing to the break age of the city sewer in the neigh borhood of Mir Laughlin's home. The break, which was reported to Super intendent Perry Monday, was being repaired yesterday afternoon.
 So great was the stench from the contents of the sewer that was al- lowed to run down the street from the break, that living in the section near the opening has been practically unbearable for the last two days Damage has been done to property along the line of flow of the filthy stream, according to report. At the home of Sam Rosenstein, better known as Uncle Sam" the filth ov- erfowed the yard and traversing a low portion of the enclosure. ran into well in the rear. filling it. Mir Rosenstein stated last evening that he did not expect tc seek redress from the city government unless un- usual slowness in repairing the break was exhibited. The delay that had occurred to that time he blamed upon the fact that the city employed but one plumber who had his hands full in discovering and repairing the leak.
 Other residents of the district af- fected are not so complacent, how ever. if report is to be credited, and Bisbee may face a suit or possibly more on account of the break and the alleged tardiness exhibited in re- pairing it. It is stated that 1t was reported to the city during the af- ternoon of Monday and no steps were taken to repair it until the middle of yesterday morning. the filthy flow continuing in the meantime.

OHIO COPPER COMPANY.

Boston-F. A. Heinze. president of the United Copper Co.,, in his last report to stockholders stated that it was in contemplation to dispose of a part of the company's assests in or der to finance some of the other pro perties. Just what assests might be sold Mir Heinze did not state.
 We understand that his present trip to Europe is for the purpose oi trying to effect asale of the British Columbia timber lands owned by the United Copper Go. British capitalists have indicated a desire to acquire this property in connection with some adjoining lands and if Mir. Heinze disposes Of this timber tract, the United Copper Company will get whatever money it needs.
 While it would be more desirable for the management of the Ohio Co. to market it's $750 900 bonds it is more probable that this company will be financed. through the sale Of this land

The two men had been close friends and while no blame could in any way attach to the engineer. yet the circumstances of his friends horrible death had preyed upon his mind that he was made less able to withstand the ravages of the dread disease, and fell ready victim to it.

Although New York Banking Situation Gains Strength, Other Matters Cause a Quiet Day,

 Various factors combining 10 build up the strength of the New York banking position, but the effect on the sentiment of the stock market was modified by a disposition to look askanee at the revision movement for information of currency associa- tions such as are provided for by law for the issuance of emergency currency.

ALGoMAH.

Houghton-The bottom of Algomah' s shaft down 20 feet is getting away from surface weathering and the char acter of the amygdaliod sock can be more clearly seen. It is strong and healthy and bears a striking resem- blance to the brecciated amygdaloid rock of Lake Baltic. All the ore taken out in the progress of sinking is care fully selected from the barren rock and now amounts to several tons that will probably run 20 per cent to 30 per cent copper. It IS likely that a diamond drill will be put into ser vice on the property soon.
