TIE CITY ASSESSMENT. The Equalization Committes and County Attorney Discuss the Situation, It Is Not Improbable that the South Side Will Be Reassessed, Some Outrageously Low Assess- ments. The Committeo on Equalization of the County-Board was In session again yesterday to hear complaints ahout the late assessment. Tho publleatiun in these columns of tho assessment of the sovernl banks in tho clty added a re- newed fnterest In the Committee’s work, and called around then many of the represuntatives of the banks with complaints, and afro a com- zflnlut about the asscssmient of tho West Bide (tns Cvauny by John Garrlck nnd C.

Mr. Burdick replied that ho thought there were, and procesded to read the complaints, but fafled to find any complaint that the assess- inent was not bigh cnough,except In the cuso of tho West Side Uns Compauy,—a corporation. Mr. ountree replied by reading the law gov- erning the Board In the matter of assessments, and then procceded to “coiroct an fnpression gained by the Committeo that tho banlks, or any other class of property, could bo reasseased in such cnses, He sald fis attention lad nover been ealled to a sindlar situation before, but 1t was his opinfon that to reassess the banks it would be necessary to declare the whole Bouth Chicago asscssment vold, and reasscss tae entire town. The Bonrd, he eaid, had power toreview and corfect the Asscssor's reiurns, but the Asscssor had no nuthority to makea new asacsstient.

Mr. Rountroe replied that precnbacks, or money, wers clearly taxuble,—that greenbacks were inoney, and moncy was personal property, and that both the real and personal properiy of aasoclations were tuxable under the law, cte Some further desultory conversation eneued, covering the different phases of the situation, after wiich Mr. Rountreo ‘sald, in substance, that he did not regard the' complufut une der consideration “sufllclont upon |, which to ralse the valuation of ho “sharos of any of the banks, The complaints, he sald, must bo apteific, aud to the effect that some ono bank hiad been assessod too low.

Tho main body of the Sloux aro belfeved to havy taken to the Dig Horm Mountams, where game is more abundant, and the grass fresher. The Indlans’ cforts to burn the grass of the valleys makes it almost imperativo on Crook to follow them up at once, Ills force musters sbout 1,200+ regular soldiers und citizen volunteers, bostdes the 200 Snake allles, and he feels that lie can at least hold his own on any ground the emergoncy may select. It Is xe pected that the wagons will bo parked on the Malu Tongue River, near tho mountains, and with the pack train, loaded with from fifteen to twenty days ratfons, a vigorous but careful ad- vanco will immedintely follo, It I8 not decnied advisable for Crook's and Terry's forces to join previous to a move by one or tha other of the commands, It f8 thought that the Indisns would make a stand against one of the columns, and thal, by arranglng then and baving the other column reserved to elther fight, or follow up with, something declsive may be expeeted during the suminer campalgn.
