ing OF the city's work was that IL
would be a check OF the company
appraisal, accompanied by state
ment Of expenses and earnings, Mr.
Burch replied:
Not at all refuse to do the
work under that condition"
Then the city expert explained
that he intended to place his own
values on the company's property
He accepted the suggestion of the
railroad commissions expert that
quantity values be used as much as
possible to shortcut the work.
Mr.. Burch stated that his apprai-
sal will cost the city about SIS, 900.
Mr.. Won Schlegell said that the
company's appraisal cost in the
neighborhood of $4,000. and that il
| Mr.. Burch carried out his plan TO
re-appraise the property. II would
mean extra expense and loss of val

insisted that the city's audit should
cover the same period.
Not at all. We want the audit
to cover three years at least again
interposed the city expert
"As understand il. the Detroit
Trust Co will make the audit" said
Mr. Won Schlegell.

said Mr.. Hall Il saw TO that at the
very start"
I Commissioner Glasgow supported
Mr.. Burch's contention that the aud.
II should cover a period OF at least
three years. Corporation Counsel
Dingeman and Controller Engel, "a
we'll as Mr.. Burch. considered IL OF
greatest importance that the city's
audit cover longer period than
covered in the company's statement.
Mr.. Burch's task will be 10 deter
mine three things: The value OF
the telephone company property.
the cost OF operation and the rev
enue. His report will be used to
combat the application Of the cen.
pany for meiered service which, II
allowed. will mean increased rev
enue for the company, the burden
failing upon the subscribers.
At the suggestion OF Commission
er Glasgow the appraisal work will
proceed until there is disagree.
ment between the city and the com
pany experts. Then the commits
sion will seek to adjust the differ
ence. The commission will hold it's
next meeting in Detroit in about go

SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 1s.-For-
mer Gov. John NJ. Slaton, of Geor-
gia, who committed the death SEN
tence of Leo NJ. Frank to one OF
life imprisonment, issued last night
a statement condemning an address
delivered by Maj. j. G. Woodward.
of Atlanta, Ga. and terming the
mayor "old and garrulous."
He called the Frank case foot
ball OF politics"

statement that three-fourths OF the
people of Georgia. including him
self, believed Frank guilty and con-
doning the lynching. Mr.. Slaton
said:
Similar utterances made before
the lynching naturally resulted In
subsequent lawlessness. In one
breath he proposed TO defend the
fair name of Atlanta ad Georgia,
and In the next breath he casts on
them the most terrible condemna
ton.
mayor Woodw~d suggested
could not with safety return &c
Georgia within year. Such a
statement is not only a gross re
flection on the state, but II absurd
and ridiculous. and II is further stip
ulative Of the mob impulse, comint
from an Official who should stand
in favor of law and order. It is II

case for political preferment."
