CITY ASKS RAISE
OF ASSESSMENTS
ON 8 FRANCHISES
Street Railway, Electric and
Gas Corporations Likely to
Protest Against Increase BY
Board of Review.

City Atty. Eli F. Seebirt took the
first step Friday in what is expected
to result in a contest on the assess
ment of corporation franchises in
South Bend by fling petitions with the
county board Of review asking that the
valuation Of three franchises be in
creased. The franchises are those of
the Chicago, South Bend and Northern
Indiana Railway Co, Indiana and
Michigan Electric Co, and the North
ern Indiana Gas & Electric Co.
1t has been understood for several
days that the city expected to petition
that the assessments of the franchises
be increased materially and it is
thought that the three companies will
make strenuous objections TO such ac-
ton. The petitions filed request that
the county board of review increased
the valuation of the Indiana q Michi-
gan Electric Co. franchise from $780,
600 to $500. 900, the Northern Indiana
Gas x Electric Co. from 100000 TO
100000 and make the Chicago, South
Bend and Northern Indiana franchise
assessment 100000.
Take I'D Matter Monday.
The matter OF assessing the corpora
tions will be taken up by the board
of review on Monday or Tuesday and
it is expected that objections to the
petitions by the city will be made by
the three companies before a hearing
is permitted.
c. ID. EmmOns, general manager OF
the Chicago. South Bend and Northern
Indiana Railway Co. stated Friday that
objections would be made 10 an in
crease in the assessment of the COM
pany's franchise. He declared that

probable that a fight Will be made

HUERTISTAS TO MEET
REBEL AGENTS SUNDAY
American Delegates Confident
Buffalo Conference Will Re-
suit in Peace for Mexico.
BY LAURENCE TOD.
(Staff Correspondent

MEDIATION HEADQUARTERS.
Niagara Falls, Ont. June 26.-The
arrival at Buffalo OF the constitu-
tionalist delegates, Louis Cabrera
and Rafel Zubaran, to discuss terms
Of peace with the Huertistas is now
scheduled for Saturday night or
Sunday. The American delegates
and the Argentine envoy, DR.. Naon,
are confident that Cabrera will keep
his agreement made in Washington
TO bring about a peaceful settlement
of Mexico's civil war.
All sides waited today for word
from the constitutionalists that Ca
brera would be upheld in his prom
ise.
Interest in the mediation confer
ences has died out Ambassador Da-
Cana of Brazil has gone to Long
Beach, n. J., where he has a sum-
mer home. Minister Suarez of Chile
will leave late today or tomorrow
for Washington. Both men will re-
main subject to call from DR.. Naon,
who will remain here to watch the
peace parleys between the two Mex
will come back whenever their ser
vices are wanted
1t is an open secret, however, that
they do not believe that a provis-
ional government will be establish
ed in Mexico until the rebels enter
Mexico City They hope to find
Villa willing at that time to relent
from the announced policy of the
rebels to sweep all of the old gov
ernment followers from power.
Among the Huertista delegates
here the name OF Cabrera, head Of
the cOnstitutionalist junta, is men
toned with more approval than
heretofore. Since the military tri-
umph of Villa at Zacatecas and the
threat from Villas camp that Felipe
Angeles would be chosen provisional
president, the federals are more in
clined to favor Cabrera for the place
in spite of their refusal a week ago
to accept any rebel at the head of
the government.
