BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.


Washington, May 12.-One response
to the request of the state department
through foreign diplomatic channels
here for information as to actual con-
ditions in Mexico City was received
today. The message stated that the
situation in Mexico City was not alb
normal; that the people were not par
ticularly ALARMED over reports that
the mandit leader Zapata might swoop
down upon the city, and that there was
no apparent weakening on the part
of General EIuerta.
Diplomatic representatives here eX-
pressed considerable concern over the
lack of definite information from
Tampico where desperate fighting is
reported between Constitutionalists
and Federals. a dispatch four days in
reached The Netherlands
legation stating that operatives of the
Corona oil well, Dutch property, who
had taken refugee with their families
on a Dutch war vessel, had returned
to the well and resumed operations.

For years common bold-sulphur has

JERSEY TURNING
IT'S SEARCHLIGHT
I ON CORPORATIONS
Public Utility Concerns Re-
quired TO Give Value and
Amount of Holdings.


TRENTON. Sept. lit was
learned here today that there will be
general increase on assessments
against holdings of public utility cor
poratons throughout the State as the
result of q new system of assessing
these companies adopted by the state
Board of Equalization of Taxes.
This system contemplates. by means
of blanks sent out to utilities con-
Germs, to he filled in by them, the
gathering, uniformly and accurately,
of all holdings of the companies. 1t
has been taken up in all the counties
of the State Where the company
refuses TO give in detail, as presented
on the blank, the value and amount
of it's holdings, it is liable to assess
ment at the highest figures, and theh
the corporation only redress Is an
appeal to the State Board OF Equah-
cation of Taxes to reduce the assess
ment.
IJp to the time of the introduction
and use of the new blank system any
statement of a concern as to it's hold
ings was taken as the truth, unless
there was a well-grounded suspicion
that the company was undertaking.
its property to evade a just assess
ment, and In such eases an inVestlga-
ton was invariably undertaken
Again an objection to the old system,
according to the State board, was
that companies or corporations would
make their returns TO the county
boards in bulk, giving no indication
to guide the assessing authorizes 10
the details of their holdings. 1t was
thought that in this way the counties
last much in revenue from public utll-
tiles and also left themselves open to
the charge that some concerns were
assessed lower than others.
The new blank forms are issued oy
the state Board of Equalization oil
Taxes and go exclusively into detaiI
az real estate and other holdings OF
the corporations controlling the pub
nc utilities. For instance, a traction
company must report the number OF
poles It maintains, mileage OF WIRE
number of cars, classification OF cars
road mileage, etc.
A gas company is required 10 give
the number of meters 1t mas installed
miles of service pipes, gas stoves
nlant machinery and the like. "A
ajepl1one or telegraph company must
detail its, conduits, wires, po.es, ma
ahiflerv and devices for the conduct
of its business.
The state board has not as yet cal
eulated the amount of increased reVe-
11ue that will be derived from the
Introduction of the new system ne
cause the different counties nave not
been heard from directly as to work
ing out of the innovation. Under the
system the county boards are not re-
auired, to report to the State board
except at the special request OF the
latter body. It is realized, of course.
that there will e a general increase
Of revenue, but probably it will not
he as large as at first apparent. Ac-
cording to the methods of taxing
public utilities in this State none OF
this revenue goes to the state; it
goes to the county and municipalities
