MISS CLARA MORRIS WORSE
Condition Is Grave, and All Hope of
Saving Sight Is Gone.

There was a turn for the worse yesterday
in the condition of Mrs. +. C. HerTiott, who
was Miss Clara Morris, the actress. She
was very low last night. A consultation of
physicians. including Drs. Miller, Leonard,
Hartley and Markle, of New York, and DR.
Belcher, of Yonkers, was held at her home.
After the conference one of the doctors
said that all hope had been abandoned of
saving Mrs. Herriott's eyesight, the effort
now being directed to preventing another
relapse. which. should it occur, would
doubtless result in the patients death.
Mrs. Herriott has no wish to see any one
other than her husband and her aged
mother. Mrs. Sarah Jane Morris, both of
whom are in constant attendance at her
bedside.

William ]. Bryan arrived to-day and ad-
dressed the conference, saying in part:
Some favor large navies in the belief
that they will compel peace: others believe,
and I share the belief, that peace can bet
ter be promoted by discouraging the spirit
that inspires the building of big navies.
Our nation is in q better position than any
other to test the power Of example in lead
ing the nations into the paths of peace,
It does not need to compete with the world
in battleships- It will become an increas-
ing influence for peace in proportion as it
relies on peaceful methods rather than on
a show of force. 1t ought to announce its
willingness to enter into treaties with all
nations, STIMULATING that there should be
no declaration of war or commencement
of hostilities until the matter in dispute
has been submitted to an impartial tri-
bunal for investigation and report

SUPERVISORS WANT
AN EQUALIZATION OF
STATE TAX VALUES
This Matter Was Discussed BY Mis-
ississippi Supervisors Association
In Session at Jackson.

Jackson, Miss, Oct. 2S.-The Mis-
sissippi Supervisors Association
wants tax values equalized, and a
campaign is to be waged in every
county for better system of valua-
ton and taxation. The agitation was
started by Secretary Wilson of the
association, from DeSoto county, who
thinks there should be a more just
assessment.
Mr.. Wilson figures that the banks
and corporations are given the worst
of it in practically every county in
the state-not because the supervisors
intend to be unfair, but because they
( do not realize the situation. Person
atty is assessed practically at its
full value, yet land is not assessed at
more than one-third, and generally at
about one-fourth of its value.
That the farmer does not intend to
be unjust to any one, when serving as
supervisor, is shown by the fact
that he places his own personally at
about its true value, yet his lands,
with those of others, is not valued at
anything like its worth. With city
property, in some instances, at least,
it is different, as the municipal prop
erty owner comes nearer paying the
true value of his property in taxes.
By equalizing the assessment val
ues, it is believed each county in the
state will be self-supporting, at least,
which it is not at present. There
are several counties that draw out
more money than they pay into the

state treasury This applies to the
school funds and pensions.
In South Mississippi land values are
more nearly equal to the personal
assessments than in any other part
of the state. The finest delta land,
in some counties, is assessed at So
and $40 an acre, yet every one is
required to pay practically full value
on personally. Bank stock, and de-
posts pay full value, but land owners
do not, and it is Mr.. Wilson's idea to
place personally and realty on as
near parity as to assessment values
as possible.
He believes it would be better for
the state, in financial way, to assess
all property at practically it's face
value and reduce the tax rate, than tC
place the valuation low and the tax
levy high. There is not any induce
ment for capital to come into Missis-

pointed out, while it is known that
many persons who have idle money
in this state, either invest or deposit
it in other states where the tax rates
are lower
Mr.. Wilson has always been an adj
vocate of equalization, and believes
the time has come for the supervisors
to arrive at an understanding on this
point With this in view, he intro
duced a resolution before the conven-
ton Wednesday agitating the ques-
ton, which he wants to see fully dis
cussed in the papers.
He says there is one thing such
system would do-make each county
bear its just proportion of the state
government expenses. which many of
them do not attempt to do under ex-
listing conditions.

Special to The NeDS.
Tampa, Fla, Oct 2S.-V. Thomas
and Secretary G. P. Bradford, mem
bers of the joint advisory board Of the
striking tobacco workers unions, were
discharged by County Judge Graham
yesterday morning. The men had
been on trial in the form of a prelimi-
nary hearing charged with being par
ties to conspiracy to prevent the to-
bacco workers from going to work i'll
the factories. The defense made no
attempt to introduce witnesses, merely
moving that the men be discharged
as the state had failed to prove it's
case.
There is another charge against
them, that of being accessories to the
murder of ]. Frank Easterling, which
shooting caused the lynching of the
two Italians, Albano and Ficcaroota.
