murders in the course of the struggle

Rebels Flushed with Victory.

Niagara Fails, Ont, June 26.--The
GA. B. c." medators were counting
today on the Mexican rebel represen-
tatives arrival here Saturday TO take
up with the Huertista ENJOYS the or
ganization of a provisional government
at Mexico City as successor to Presi-
dent Huertas regime.
Flushed with the victories at Zaca-
tecas and San Luis Potosi, it was
thought extremely likely the consti
tutionalists would undertake to dictate.
The Huestistas showed no signs of re-
ceding from their contention that HUI
erta 5 successor must be an absolute
neutral instead of rebel. The outlook,
accordingly, was somewhat unpromis-
ing but tho mediators seemed confident
some sort of an agreement would be
reached.
Investigation of the protocol signed
by the mediators and American and
Huertista ENJOYS Wednesday night re-
vealed, it was remarked today, that in
promising not to require war indem-
nifty or other exaction from Mexico on
account of what has passed, the United
States had waived its demand for a
salute to the flag as sequel to the
Tampico incident
The issue was passed over by the AM
erican envoys, it was understood, prac-
tically without discussion as a matter
Of intrinsic unimportance.

Animals Die Apparently From Poison.
ing Of Some Kind.
Special to Times Republican.
Nevada, July 10-A disease peculiar
to horses and mules which has devel-
oped on the farm of the Lindeback boys
of near Ellworth, is battling the veter-
mary experts of that part of the state.
Within seven days four mules and two
horses died on the same place of ap-
parently the same cause, poisoning An
assistant state veterinarian of Des
Moines and veterinarian of Jewell,
were called and held post mortem ex-
animation over the body of a couple of
the animals and found that death was
due to poison but were unable to de-
termine whether the poison was of a
a chemical nature or from the eating of
musty or mouldy food
Within a day or so three more horses
began to show signs of the same
trouble. Altho these are being treated
by experts from different parts of the
state tits not thought that they can
be saved. The poison is of peculiar
nature, as is the effects The first sign
is an apparent paralysis of the tongue
and throat The animals would show
signs of an abnormal hunger and when
given food would chew it and make
an Intellectual attempt to swallow it.
After a couple of days the animals
would go down and be apparently SUI
fering from some spinal trouble and be
unable to arise. Following a few hours
of acute suffering the animals would
die. No trace of poison could be found
in the stomach of the animals examined
but the spial cord would be found to
be partially decomposed and the spinal
duct covered with peculiar red spots.

IGNORE ASSESSING LAWS.
Boards and Local Assessors Refuse to
Maintain Equalities.


Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, July 10-Assessors and
county assessing boards are making
even after the drastic action taken last
year to equalize assessments and the
taxable value placed on personal prop
erty, they refuse to maintain the equal
ity. The state board of review, re-
quired by law to adjust values by rails
ing or lowering values, made an order,
which. If followed, meant that for the
first time in Iowa history all personal
property in the we'll recognized classes
was last year valued In every county
OF the state the same as in every other
county. It provided. for instance, that
3-year-old horses in every county Of
the state should be assessed at sub
stantially the sameSsa lue, and so with
other kinds of pro1sl8y. ~
But here come t6feports from the
local boards Of review and county Of
ficials showing nearly as great discrep-
ancy as in the past, as between some
counties. One county reported valua-
ton on horses of s22 and the very. next
county $61 for the same class, and vet
the council ordered approximately $43.
So with other classes.
Now what Is the council going to do
this year-assess In accord withs law
and equalize values under the mandate
of the code, or do as some would have
1t done, permit the inequality to stand :?
All but about ten Of the county re-
ports have now been received and the
rest are on the way.

The plan is the outcome of the

doubtedly the republican state con-
