of the Moqui Scrip which is being used on the Thayer project and sim liar lands in Lonesome Valley and Big Chino Valley. The S2.5O per acre value in thise case is due solely to the fact that these lands chance to be solidified in an area capable of being irrigated but owing to the checkerboard location of .almost all the other railroad land it is not worth more than the aforementioned 9 cents per acre. The fact that one quarter section is valuable is no sign that the bordering sections, or even the nearby sections, possess this same value.
 The railroad attorneys further ex- plained that the reason they were taxed on but 217,OOO of the 3O0,OO0 acres of land which they had under lease in this county was due to the lands and not subject to taxation. land and not subject to taxation.
 Burks appealed to the Board and asked them if there was any other indus try in the county which carried the awful burden of a tax which amount ed to fifty per eentum of their net income. Chairman Harrington sml ing grimly remarked, "well there are," to which Burks responded that, "I suppose that there are some idle mines that do carry a heavy tax" and Harrington nodded smiling ap- proval.

 -'"Tom Campbell, Prescott, Arizona. ''Railroad companies must reposit money for survey land granted them.

RUSSIA AND JAPAN
REACH AGREEMENT
China Believes Two Powers
Have Combined to Rob
Her of Territory.
(American News Service)

Pckin, Feb. 1S.-That secret
agreement between Russia and Japan
to strip China of large part Of her
territory is responsible for the ultima
tum sent by the cars government to
Pekin is the belief of the imperial
council. This agreement is believed
to be part of the treaty entered into
between Russia and Japan following
the Russo-Japanese war.
AS result of threats made against
NJ. Korotovitz. the Russian minister to
China, the Russian embassy is under
guard today and it is reported that
that Muscovite officer is ready to
leave the empire at moments notice.
The news that Russia was moving
troops towards Mongolia and that she
would tolerate no delay on the part of
China in forwarding the answer to the
that China faces the most serious era
since the Chino-Japanese war.
Seeking Real Cause.
Students of international politics
go further than the treaty difficulties
in seeking cause for the hostile &C
tion of Russia.
Russia will have an army upon
China's border soon and should war
come. Russia could have an army
moving toward Pekin, il such CAM
paign were deemed expedient. within
"a hours of the declaration of war.
The foreign board, the imperial
council and the prince regent held
further conferences today and impor-
tant notices were sent to diplomatic
representatives of China in other ma
tons which We're notified by Russia
of the proposed military demonstra-
ton.
II is obvious that China is seeking
delay while the Intervention of for
eign powers is hoped to be obtained.
There are many complications to the
situation. Russia has already obtain
ed from England concessions for rail
road connection with the British lines
in lndia-following of course. the
construction of the trans-Persian and
trans Beloochistan roads by Russia.
China has all but closed negotiations
for a vast railroad loan from Ameri-
can and European financiers which
could not be carried through in the
event of war because of the national
debt that war would entail.

A RUNAWAY HORSE
OASHES TO DEATH
In Its Mad Sprint Animal
Catches One of Its Hoofs
in a Car Fender.

A small white horse lying at the
corner of Eighth and North L streets
with bullet wound in its forehead
and its right foreleg dangling above
the knee joint from few tendons,
and a light covered wagon, badly
broken and turned upside down at
Eighteenth and North c street, with
the street i'm the nciShborhood covered
with five or six dozen broken eggs
were the results Of a runaway about
9:45 this morning.
Following mad flight down North
c street from Nineteenth, to Eighth
street. and then North. the horse, five
years old and valued at about $3.50
dashed onto the rear fender of city
car which had drawn on to the Fort
Wayne avenue tracks to allow the
south bound car to pass, and dropped
instantly. With painful snort it
arose and totered ON three feet for a
few steps, stream of blood gushing
from above the knee joint where only
a few strands of muscle and flesh
held the lower portion.
Killed by Policeman.
A bullet from the SO calbre Police
Colt of Patrolman William Lawler
who appeared on the scene sent the
horse toppling to the ground, and the
crowd began to gather.
Breathless from the long chase from
where the horses flight began. George
Meyers, a farmer residing about two
and one-half miles northwest of Foun
tain City, soon hove into sight only
to find the carcass of the horse which
he had brought to Richmond for the
first time today.
Meyers, who has butter and egs
route in this city. had tied his horse
to post at the corner of Nineteenth
and c streets, while he called on d
customer. A bull dog soon began
fighting with the horse and the animal
becoming frightened broke loose and
commenced wild run down North
c street. At Eighteenth street il
swerved far into the gutter, and the
wagon striking a tree was left behind
badly broken while eggs and butter
were strewn about the street in Z
manner to make the high cost of liv
| ing absurd.
| No other incidents marked the
| flight of the horse until the car was
struck. The dead animal was secured
| by the Clendeuin Fertilizing plant
Meyers places his loss at about SIC;
including horse. wagon, eggs and but

indianapolis, Feb. 1S.-After a con
ference Friday between Attorneys Lit
tleton and West of the New York Cen
trail lines and Bernard Korbly and 4
G.. Cayins. representing iobbing and
manufacturing interests. an amend
mens was submitted to the house rail
road committee which will eliminate
any joker that may be hidden in the
Proctor bill giving railroads the right
to condemn land for widening their
right of way more than six rods. The
object of the bill is to make it possible
for the Lake Shore to construct a four
track line through Indiana. Under
the present laws, railroads cannot
condemn more than six rods, which is
insufficient for four tracks
Manufacturers and jobbers located
along railroad tracks feared they
would not be amply protected in the
matter of damages should the roads
decide to widen their rights OF way
So as to leave no room for argumen;
they demanded the addition of an
amendment setting forth that when q
railroad condemns land on which a
business house or manufacturing con
cern is located il must pay damages
for all injuries to the business re
sulting therefrom in addition to pay
ing for the real estate.
