Big Increase in Santa Fe Taxes
in City and County.
Gain of Nearly 40 Per Cent. in
Topeka and Shawnee.
DUE TO BETTERMENTS
Road Has Spent Thousands Here
in the Last Year.
Other Items of General Interest
in the Traffic World.

The taxes paid by the Santa Fe III
Topeka and Shawnee county this year
averaged nearly 40 per cent more than
the taxes of 1910. The total amount
paid by the railroad company in this
city in 1911 is $57, 316 Last year it
amounted to S4L5S3. In Shawnee county
the taxes this year were SI2,S54- Last
year they were S53,133-
This immense gain tells the story OF
what the Atchison. Topeka & Santa Fe
has done in betterment in Topeka IN
the last year. Although a slight part
of the gain was due to an increase IN
taxes. the big percentage of the increase
was through the extended valuation OF
Santa Fe property. In Topeka the pro-
perty of the Santa F'e is valued at s.
993. O20, or more than per cent of the
total valuation in the city Next year
the Santa Fe's valuation will so above
the three million dollar mark
The total county valuation is $751;
917 1876 The Santa Fe owns o-9 per
cent of this or 81, S25 500. The total val
uation If all property in the city IS
$51, O92, $40.
The big cause for this increase is
the construction of the new general OF
fee building, the shop office building
and several buildings in the shop dis

has been spent in Topeka in one year

MAY SEND LEPER HOME.
District Will Aid Unless Other Pro.
vision Is Made Soon.

Through the efforts of Manuel L.
Quezon, Philippine resident commissioner
in Washington: Representative Roberts
of Nevada and District health depart
ment officials. there is every probability
that q chance will be found to return
Anacieto Palaby the Filipino leper, con-
fined in the District, to his home in the
Philippine Islands.
Recently Representative Roberts an
resolution to have Congress provide the
cost of returning Palaby to his island
home. This was followed by conference
between Representative Roberts and
Commissioner QueZon, resulting in the
announcement made yesterday that the
commissioner would arrange for the re-
turn of the leper.
Today, it was learned. District officials
have plans of their own for returning
Palaby About the only thing that will
keep the plans from undertaking will be
quicker action on the part of Congress or
of Commissioner QueZon. 1t is under
stood that the local authorities intend to
sent Palaby away some time in August.
While officials of the health department
will not comment upon the case, IL is
known that the leper has cost the District
about 81 ,0c0 since January and that plans
are being made to eliminate this drain on
the treasury. Investigation has shown
that the cost of sending Palaby to the
Philippine Islands would be in the neigh
borhood of 81, 200. Hence. the reason from
an economical standpoint of the District
arranging to deport its ward, II Congress
or Commissioner QueZon fails to do so.
The plans of the department, ii is UNI
derstood, provide for transporting Palaby
across the continent in a closed car. After
his arrival in the Philippines, 1t is proba-
BILE that Palaby will be sent to the leper
colony on the lonely Island Of Cullion, sit
uated about 200 miles southwest of
LuZon.
