OFFICIAL CORRESPONDENCE OF THE DISTRICT COM- MISSIONERS AND THE ASSESSOR. ‘Mr. Robert P. Dodge, assessor of the District of Columbla, yesterday sent to the Commissioners the following communtcatton: “It has heretofore been the rule of this office to take the returns of the several corporations, as to their capital stock, a8 the basis 01 Value for per- sonal tax, deducting therefrom their real estate, if any. These values were taken because of the fact that oMcers of the companies were best ac- quainted with the value of their capital stock, in bulk, and because this office could not be cogni- Zant’ of their indebtedness, as an offset to such values in bulk. These views were recognized by the Commissioners since 1879 as sound, and the taxes bave been collected smoothly. d now find that 1 am expected to assess values by taking tue hewspaper rates for buying or selling single shares. I feel satisfied that such procedure will Tesult In no collections and suits atlaw.

NARROWED DOWN TO A QUESTION OF ENDURANCE. “There’s nat much news,” sald one of the opera- tors at the headquarters of the brotherhood to- ay. “There isnot ikely to be much from day to day. This has simply narrowed down to a question of endurance. ‘Are Une boys sul enduring it well?” asked the Teporter. “None of them show any signs of weakness,” "said the operator. “As it stands none of them would go back to work, honorably, without per- mission from the brotherhood.” “incase the strike is prulonged and members: are reduced Lo great straits”—began the reporter. “We have nO fear of such a strait,” sald the operator; “but In such a cuse the brotherhood would let the men ali go back, It would be better to have them go bisck that way and’ preserve the organization.
