New York Syndicate Surprised by
Charges of Fraud in Buying
Tennessee Notes.

NEW YORK, Nov. Bankers
composing the syndicate which pur-
chased a considerable amount of the
State Of Tennessee short-term notes
not long ago expressed surprise at the
story charging them with buying the
notes for 1881, selling them for 1895,
and dividing the difference with the
members of the Funding Board of the
State.
The members of the syndicate were
inclined to ook upon the report as the
result of a political squabble between
the Democratic and Republican par
ties in the Legislature.
1t was said that the syndicate in
stead of making a formal reply to the
charge, would wait until asked to do
so by The State, when they would
willingly divulge all details OF the
transaction and would permit any In
Vestigation of it's books.

IN View Of the INCREASING popularity

apprehensive concerning the result of
the reduction in duty on pipes from so

now a tax Of 81 pound on raw am

mer tariff was duty free, and another
tax OF 20 per cent on meerschaum.
which was also on the free list. II is
thought likely, however. that the tax on

The chief of police was called upon
last evening to do a Sherlock Holmes
stunt during the council meeting.
Councilman Gideon Stolz started to
make an address to the council on the
R. R. Ryan permit proposition. Louder,
Gideon" shouted someone in the big
crowd which streamed away out on the
steps Of the city hall. Stolz went on
in the same tone, and some one again
shouted "Louder, Gid" This time
stolz halted and inquired suspiciously:
"Where did that come FRONT" 1t was
explained that some one out on the
steps could not hear and Stolz gruffly
said he thought he was addressing the
council, evidently feeling that the tax
payers had no right to hear some Of the
things he said; Mayor Sleeves ordered
the chief of police to locate the person
who had interrupted Stolz, and the
chief went out on the steps but made
no arrests. Stolz finished his little
talk without excrting himself to make
his words plain to his audience,

POPE'S CONDITION

Tombstone Said to Have Foretold tie
Death of 16 Pontffs Dying in the
Last Ten Centuries
UNITED PRESS LEASED WIRE ]

Rome, April 15.-The fact that the
tombstone of Pope Sylvester II, in the
Basilca of st. John of Lateran, is
still dry is believed by optimists here
to mean that the pope will recover. The
tomb s marble slab bears a. prophetic
cpitaph, and is always being bedewed
when pope is dying. The sign, it is
said, never has failed to give pre-.
monition of the death of the 116 pom
tiffs who have died within the last ten
centuries.
The phenomenon, it is said, occurred
as usual on the day that &Pope Leo
XIII died. The stone has been dry ev-
er since
Pope Plus condition is unchanged

pairing for a archaeological analysis Of
the pontiff's S sputum, to guard against

POST OFFICE BLOCK
SHOWS BIG INCREASE
Purchased in 1900 for S76OC,. 1t Is Now
Valued at 100000, an Increase
of 1900 Per Cent.

According to one Of Uncle Sam S
business agents in Salem, Postmaster
Squire Farrar, the postoffice block here
has advanced in valuation nearly dou'
BILE its original value amounting to ST.
900, every year since it was purchased
in the year 1900. The property is now
valued at 100000.
The valuation of the block was made
at the request of Senator Jonathan
Bourne, Jr., who is gathering data and
general information concerning the
valuations and conditions of all post
offices in the state for the purpose of
determining what can or should be done
toward carrying out the provisions in
an act passed by congress to aid, in the
improvement to the various rural post
routes. Although Mr. Bourne is sena'
ator no longer for this state, he is car
rying on the work as chairman of a
committee to act along these lines.
Salem Aids United States,
That the Capital City has not been a
losing factor in the affairs Of the Uni
ted States government can be readily
recognized by comparing the valuation
of property here now owned by the
government in 1900 and at the present
time. Thirteen years ago the United
States purchased the block on which
now stands the poStoffice for $1,000
In estimating the present value Of the
land, Postmaster Farrar interviewed
twelve of Salem IS leading real estate
and business men who estimated the
value of the block all the way from
$45, 900 to $225,OOO. Placing the value
at 100000 was believed by majority
of those interviewed to be very conserv.
ative and adding 100000 as the cost of
the postoffice building, Salem's postal
property is worth to Uncle Sam $207,.
900.
While it is true that Salem has been
largely responsible for the great in.
crease in the value of the postoffice
block, the government has also aided
Salem materially. The improvements
which have been made to the property
in the past thirteen years have been
many and the local office is rated as
being first class in every respect. Many
additions have been made to the dis
tributing facilities in the office and due
to the steady increase in business, thu
local postal authorities expect to utiliz,
every bit of space in the office within
short time for postal business alone
