Muscatine Labor Leaders Evade Ser.
vice Of Warrants.
Muscatine, jan 16.-Those members
of the Muscatine Button Workers
union against whom indictments were
returned but who decamped from the
city of Muscatine before the bench
warrants could be served. have sue
ceeded thus far to battle the police of
many cities. Despite the fact that
descriptions Of the men wanted have
been sent out to police departments
and to county authorities of a number
of cities in this part of the country,
and special men are on the lookout for
them. not one Of the fugitives has
been apprehended. 1t is expected that
those who are wanted will be picked
up as soon as they return to this part
Of the country. however, and in order
that they retain their liberty it be-
comes necessary that they sever all
connections with this city. The man
ner in which the many alleged peace
disturbers'' disappeared from Musca-
tine when it became known that the
indictments returned would likely
cover them, was a source of some sur
prise to the authorities and that none
of them have been captured as yet is
also considered rather odd

ENGINE RUNS WILD 10 MILES.
Switches From One Road to Another
Without Any Harm.

Minneapolis, Jan. 1o.-Traveling for
thirteen miles without a guiding hand.
during which time 1t switched from
one road to another. Northern Pacific
engine No. 2347 came to a stop at
Cedar station without harm to itself or
other trains. The engine started in
some unknown manner at Northtown
Junction, and rushing northward. hit
the switch ten miles further. where it
was thrown over to the Great Northern
tracks, upon which 1t proceeded.
Soon after the runaway started an
other engine was manned and the chase
began, but the pursuers kept to the
Northern Pacific tracks, not thinking
the engine could have changed roads.
Shortly afterward word was received
that the engine had stopped at Cedar
station, three miles out on the Great
Northern line.
Raj ay officials declare 1t extraor-
binary that there was no accident. as
the traffic on both lines at the time
was unusually heavy.

many divorce actions grow out Of fam
lily quarrels, when the husband or wife
is in an angry and unreasoning mood.
If they would wait month and con-
slider the step calmly, it is my opinion
that this growing evil OF divorce. which
is rapidly becoming a national dis
grace, would in large measure be
done away with. Once an action is
started and the matter has been aired
in the community thru gossip or the
public press, pride oftentimes forbids a
withdrawal and stands in the way of
reconciliation"

DIFFICULT JOB CUT OUT FOR
ASSESSORS IN MAKING AN.
NUAL ROUNDS.
DIFFERENCE IN "MoNEvED

Como Up Against New Law

Special to Times-Republican.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, Jan. left the hundreds
Of assessors who are now going about
from house to house and from farm to
farm in Iowa, where the snow will per-
nit, succeed in making a satisfactory
decision in every case as to the diff
ference between "moneyed capitaI and
moneys and Credits so as to avoid
lawsuits and mandamuses, they viii!
have done better than the courts.
This is the first time that the as
SCISSORS have come up against the new
law as to the distinction between the
two classes of personal priperty. The
law was passed last year after the
work had been done. This year the as
SCISSORS, with no real estate assess
ment to bother, can take time to de-
eide the knotty legal problems in
volved.
The law provides that "moneyed
capital shall be assessed as bank
stock, and be taxed locally on the basis
of 90 per cent of value; while moneys
and credits bear a fiat tax of mills
on the dollar, full value. 1t follows
that money capital" would have to be
taxed at % mills to equal the expense
if classed as moneys and credits In
any community, therefore, where the
consolidated tax is over 20 mills the
capitalist would prefer to nave his
property classed as "moneyed capital IL
there is to be any question about it.
The legislature did not undertake to
define "rloneyed capital" the reason
being that the members were afraid to
do so for fear of running afoul of some
court with different notions. The re-
suit is that just now the persons re-
sponsible are trying to find out just
what is this thing called "moneyed
capital" The nearest approach to
clear definition found in the office Of
the attorney general. is the following:
Money employed in the carrying on
of business, the object OF which is
the making of profit by its use as
money; the capital employed in a bus
mess in which the stock in trade from
which profits are expected to accrue, is
money; either money itself, or nego-
table securities readily convertible in
to money, and having an equitable
market value; ready money or capital
invested in private banking"
While this seems quite sufficient, it
is pointed out that certain persons, es-
pecially those engaged in private
brokerage business, including more or
less Of loaning and buying notes, ETC..
will find 1t very hard to determine
whether their money is used as
"moneyed capital" or merely as
moneys and credits" This is where
the assessors must rise superior to the
courts.
Special Counsel Robbins Of the at
torney generals office has sent out the
above quoted definition of "moneye:l
capital" where inquiries have been
made as to what it means. y

Davenport, Jan. 16.-The local branch
