Tax Board Wins Victory.

The state tax commission just
has scUred a notable legal vic
tory. For two years there has been
pending in the courts of Cleveland a
suit filed by the Cleveland Street Rail-
way Company to prevent the county
authorities from collecting taxes on a
valuation upon that corporation by the
state tax commission.
In 1913 the valuation placed upon
this corporation by the tax commits
sioners was $21,293,700, and in 1914
It was $22,412,58O. The civic authori-
ties of Cleveland and the railway COM
pany wanted the commission to reduce
It's valuation to $4,000, 900 for each
of the years 1913 and 1914. In 1915
the commission placed a valuation
upon the railway company of $23, 1885,
290, while the compromise offered was
s21, 100000. Both compromises were
rejected by the commission Both the
court of common pleas and the court
Of appeals held that the method of val
uation was not legally involved and
was immaterial, and a member of the
court of appeals went so far as to de
clare that it did not matter how the
commission arrived at the valuation
30 long as it was approximately a fair
one. The curtain has been rung down
by the acceptance of the decisions OF
the courts and the payment of ac
crued taxes to the amount of $999,237
which is unquestionably the largest
single payment of taxes ever made by
a public utility operating in any mu
nicipality in Ohio.

Chicago. July 20.-Six persons are
dead and three wounded as the re-
suit Of pitched battle between 15O
policemen and negro maniac and his
WIFE barricaded in house on Irving
avenue. The battle was ended only
when the police dynamited the Hat
building in which the negroes were
quartered, after hundreds of shots had
been fired.
1t was shortly after six O'Clock in the
morning when Edward Knox. who lives
next door, heard firing, and stepped out
of his house. He dropped instantly.
and Mrs. Knox went out to see what
had happened. She was wounded, and
the police were unable to get to her
assistance until after the house had
been blown up.
The police then appeared, and the
minute they showed up Mcintosh
opened fire. 1t is presumed that his
wife also assisted him in repelling in
vaders, for she also wore a belt full
of cartridges around her waist
Police Captain Wesley Westbrook, in
charge of the detail, called for re-
endorsements. with rifles, and hun
dreds of shots were fired into the
house: There came lull in the firing
from the besieged pair and charge
was ordered. Policeman Dean was
shot as the police gained the door, and
Crabtree was shot through the arm
and neck as he carried Deans body
away.
Il was then that Captain Westbrook
decided to dynamite the house.

FOR CAMP NEAR Ell PAso, TEXAS
Is LATEST REPORT RECEIVED
AT HEADQUARTERS.
1T IS UP TO MAJ. MEARNS
He Will Give Orders When Soldiers
Are Fully Equipped-SIeepers
to Be Supplied.

western Newspaper Union News Service.
oIumbus.-According to indications
Maj Robert Mearns, the federal mus
tering officer, will say when Ohio
troops shall entrain and start for the
border. Maj. Mearns had telegraphic
instructions from the Central Depart
ment to start the Ohio troops south
when equipped, and, though it was not
specially stated in this message that
he was to use his judgment as to
when the troops are equipped com
pletely, it is indicated such instruc-
tons will follow. The long delay is
growing more and more tedious now
thai the mastering is complete and
physical examinations finished. The
evaporation OF the men is showing
itself in an increasing number of de-
sertions or informal leave takings.
How these cases will be treated is yet
20 be determined The Sixth Regi-
ment is said to have lost IA men, and
other regiments also have lost men.
Two of the engineers who escaped
were recaptured and have been start
ed back to camp.
1t was learned from a confidential
but authentic source that the troops
would go to a camp near El Paso.
Col. William H Duffy. of the Quarter
masters Department, declared that ii
would be two or three days" before
any troops are ready to leave. Lieut.
| Col G. G. Weybrecht, however, de.
clared his regiment, the Eighth, is to
be ready for movement as soon as
cars are provided Relative to his re
ported cancellation of an order for
tourist sleeping cars for the Ohio
troops, Col. Duffy said: Knowing nc
men could be got out of here for sew
oral days, of course I cancelled the
order. l didn't want to hamper the
railroads by tying up such an amount
of their equipment uselessly." Guard
officers, however, declared the sup
plying of tourist sleeping coaches fol
the transfer of. the militiamen to the
border was assured.
The equipment, which is now hold
ing up the movement of the troops, is
understood to include shoes, cots ant
changes Of underwear and sox fol
each man. Though a shipment of shoes
is about to arrive at camp, officers de
clared this supply would not be sufi
cient to meet ell demands It was
mainly the absence of this equipmen
which occasioned the "halting" ordel
from Chicago which ended entrainins
arrangements. After completing hi
inspection, Col. George K Hunter, in
spector general of the Central Depart
ment, finally praised the camp afte,
he had made statements criticizinl
certain phases of it. The guard off
GERS were not surprised at some crit
icism, although they thought some O
the remarks attributed to him were
severe, even for one whose duty it il
to find fault. In speaking of the sani
tary situation officers called atten
tion to the fact that 56 men reported
for sick leave, 29 being in the hos
pital. This is but one-half of one pc
cent, and the state sanitary officer
say it is better showing than can b.
made by any other state camp in tn
United States.

Columbus.-A compilation of what
the Shackelford-Bankh good roads
bill, recently signed by President VIII
son, means to Ohio is furnished by
the Ohio Good Roads Federation. The
state will receive $193, 600 in 1917, the
first year; 1887 400 in 1918; 1851, goo
in 1919, s774,S00 in 1870, and s9S6,500

alton between the administrative au-
thorities of state and nation, agreeing
to the maintenance for at least 10
years of all roads improved with the
aid of Federal Government, and max

CALL U-BOAT PERIL
ALLIES PROTEST AGAIN ON
WAsHINeToRs RULING.
Claim Decision Holding subsea Liner
as Merchantmen Places United
States in = Grave Position.

Washington, July 21.-In accordance
with instructions from their govern
ments, Sir Cecil Spring-Rice. the Brit
ish ambassador, and NJ. Jusserand, the
French ambassador, set forth to the
state department the reasons why the
United States should not regard YES
sells of the Deutschland type as mer-
chantmen.
The reasons are as follows:
"Thnt submarine merchantmen can
not be oyerhauled md visited and
searched. as is possible in the case of
surface craft, because of their ability
to dive and escape.
THAT such ships, because of their
submersibility are able to evade mu-
nicipal law with special reference to
customs, quarantine, etc.
THAT such ships can be transformed
with ease from merchantmen into war
ships. 81
THAT in case of war between great
maritime state and a smaller nation
the latter would have the right to pur-
chase submarine merchantmen, and
when the ships arrived at the port of
the purchaser they could be provided
with guns and torpedoes and sally
Sorth to attack the enemy ships.
THAT a refusal on the part Of a
state to sell submarine merchantmen
could be regarded as an unneutral
act"
The allies are especially anxious for
the United States to change its ruling
in the case of the Deutschland because
of their expectation that the central
powers will launch large number of
these craft and utilize them for the
purpose of obtaining supplies of raw
materials which they need in order to
continue the war. They point out,
moreover. that it is of prime import
for the United States not to set a
precedent which may cause it serious
concern in the future.

RAISES BIG STORM
BRITISH BOYCOTT CAUSES FLOOD
OF PROTEST TO POUR INTO
WASHINGTON.
U. S. IS PLANNING ACTION
Publication of London Blacklist Be-
IieVed to Be Opening Gun in a Re-
IentIess Trade War to Be Waged BY
Great Britain.

Washington, July pa flood of
protest from all parts of the United
States against the British boycott is
pouring in upon the White House and
the state department. The action of
Great Britain in making public IA gem
eral list of American firms who have
been boycotted because they trade
with England's enemies" has aroused
public sentiment, and demands for re-
taliatory legislation are reaching here
from various commercial organiza-
tiOns and individuals affected.
The state department is planning
action. 1t must wait, officials say. a
reasonable time" for official notifica-
ton of Great Britains action. If that
is not forthcoming. a direct inquiry
will be made at London. Meanwhile,
Acting Secretary of State Polk is
looking into the international law
bearing on the subject. 1t is expected
that after all of the facts are COM
piled he will take the matter up with
President Wilson before framing the
planned protest.
Officials very frankly say that the
making public of this boycott list is
in their opinion, the opening gun in
what likely will prove relentless
trade war against all neutrals who
have refused to accept without protest
the restrictions placed upon com
merce by the entente allies. They
point to the fact that the present boy
colt list was prepared by the British
board of trade and that it has been
| operative for more than a year, al
though only just now made public, al
| indicating that the measure is one
planned by British exporters and man
| ufacturers to regain their trade los
1 by the war.
The making public of the list now
officials believe, was in anticipation
that at the end of the present grea
drive on the eastern and western
front peace negotiations will assum,
IL definite form.
While officials are discussing retalia
tory measures no plans yet have beer
! framed for such action. 1t is admitted
that the task is Il knotty one, and th
federal trade commission and the de
partment of commerce will be ex
pected to act

Must Again Adjust Rates.

Private and mutual liability insur
ance companies throughout the United
States writing workmen's compensa,
ton insurance are to be compelled to
make general premium rate increases
soon to meet the abnormal losses re
sulting from the present period of ab-
normal industrial prosperity, with its
resulting increases in accidents, ac
cording to a prediction of E. E. Wat
son, actuary of the state industrial
commission, in communication to
the commission. Watson says, how
ever, that the state insurance fund has
come through the violent period of
industrial activity during the last
year in splendid condition. He adds
This means that we are not con-
fronted with the necessity of increas-
ing our rates in order to produce
greater premium income. Our prob.
lem is substantially one to make an
internal adjustment of rates, increas-
ing some, reducing Others"
