The Board of Equalization met yesterday the council chamber and suc. undoing almost all it had done in"the last two weeks or so. C. B.

Chapman and Leonard Everett had all had their assessments raised, but they came in with ama. ts showing that the board had done wrong and the assessm ts promptly knocked off. The most interesting morning’s session was the assessment of the banks of the city. A. W. Reikman, cashier of the First Nu- tional bank, came fn with a paper in which he set forth that the board In assessing his bank with $12,000 in legal tender notes and $27,000 in United ~ States bonds, both of which were exempt from taxation, had broken the law of the United ates, which forbade discrimination against any national bank. He called the atten- tion of the board to the fact that the as- sessement of the Citizens' bank had been re- duced by $6,000 on legal tender notes and the Council Bluffs Savings bank had had $40.000. of United States bonds excmpted, and then demanded that the board reduce the assessmewt of his bank by $8,000, at least or he would lead the Board of BEqualization 4 dance through the courts. The members of the board spent fifteen minutes i consultation, and sent City Clerk Zurmuehlen and Alderman Nicholson in to the council chamber to break the news to President Sanford and Cashier Reikman that they had taken back all they had done with regard to the assessment of all the banks, and had decided to leave each bank right where it was when As:sessor Hardin got through with it. The assessments now stand this way: ouncil Bluffs Savings, $30,500; Citizens' @tate, $46,500; First National, $21,” 300; Ofcer & P $15,000; Cattleman’s bank, $2,000 The as:essment of the Omaha Bridge and Terminal rallway was allowed to stand at $30,400. ¥l morning in ceeded in ®on were, the with thing about in connection ING FOR AP JATION OF MULCY Fifteen Parties Ask P Liguor Under the Mart Law. Pottawattamie county will have fifteen saloons this year, any way, for there were that many bonds of $3,000 each filed with the county auditor yesterday by parties expecting to engage in the business. The following are the parties who have filed bonds so far: Council Bluffs—Max Mohn, with C. Straub and W. Fitzgerald as sureties; John Mergen, with L. Kirscht and P. Tholl as sureties; Sullivan & Kuhl, with M. H. Kuhl and J. as suretios; Hansen & Nielsen, with Hereld and P. Jensen as sureties; Charles Maycox, with B. Hagg and J. Lifder as sureties; Wheeler & Hereld, with Lew Hammer and Oscar Youngerman as sureties; Jacob Neumayer, with John Clausen and F. G. Pleifer as sureties; Holst & Spetman, with E. F. Stockert and B. J. Gilbert as sureties Avoca—Ehler Horst, M. Horsch Fritz Bruhn and John' Dollen. Neola—Louis Goldsmith and O'Connor & Smith. Underwood—Farrell & Wolff. With each bond 1s filed the written con- sent of the freeholders for fifty feet on either side of the property proposed to be used for a saloon, and a list of the persons employed about the saloon. Thirty-two applications wero flled vester- day with the city clerk, and these will all be disposed of one way or the other by the city council Monday cvening. By that time it is expected that a number of new applica- tions will be filed. The landlords seem to be taking the mat- ter of enforcing the bond provision of the new law into thelr own hands. Several saloon tenants were served with three no- tices to quit yesterday because they had not filed their bonds, and two of them at least, Mrs. Jacob Howarth of the Colorado house and A. Schott of Lower Main street, had to move their things out yesterday. The fact that the saloon tax is levied against the bullding in which the business is carried on makes the owner of the property liable for the whole annual payment of $600. The landlords are showing the truth of the old adage about touching a man where he lives when you touch his pocketbook, and are becoming staunch temperance people.

The call which General Passenger Agent Sebastian of the Rock Island issued Tuesday for a meeting of transcontinental passenger officials next Tuesday in Chicago is not meeting with any great recognition on the part of some of the roads. While the lines are almost a unlt in_ favor of the meeting it is stated that Mr. Fee of the Northern Pacific refuses to join the meeting unless the Canadian Pacific is rep- resented, which Is almost entirely out of the question. The Canadian Paclific still insists upon its demand for differentials, which the Northern Pacific has constantly refused to grant. The Atchison, while not asking differential rates, will insist, it s asserted, on its contract stipulation with the Southern Pacific and that it be given the same privileges as other lines on San Fran- cisco business. This means that If the Canadian Pacific gets a differentlal via Port- land the Atchison will get its differential via Mojave. These are some of the pleasant things which the transcontinental meeting will be called upon to settle before any asso- clation will be formed. Mr. Lomax cf the Union Pacific, in speaking of the matter, stated that he had signified Yis intentlon to be present, and thought that the times were sufficiently desperate to demand some such an assocla- tion for the protection of the revenues. He could see no good reason why the lines in the we:it might not form an association without the aid of the Canadian Pacific if it persisted in refusiug to come in and thought a strong agreement could be made without the help of the “Canuck” road. “But I have every confidence in the association being formed, and that all differences will be harmonlously adjusted We have had entirely too mucl fighting, and the sooner railroad officlals appreclate this the sooner will the revenues of the varlous companles increase. The Canadlan Pacific cannot afford to stay out If all the other roads show a desire to amalgamate for revenue, for it would be seriously kandicapped on its California business. The time is ripe for a transcontinental assocla- tion and the Unlon Pacific is in sympathy with the movement.” Found & Cure for Sclatic Rheumatism. Mrs. A.

Four lines of pickets guard every road and trall leading from this city to the mountain, and the guards down the Canon City and Florence for a distance of twelve miles. The same is true of the Cheyenne canon road to Colorado Springs. Pickets are also stationed as far as Midland and beyond, and it will be next to impossible for the deputies to surprise the strikers. At Altman, the stronghold o the miners, the strictest military rule Is en- forced. All the saloons are under lock and key, but, by some means, some of the strikers procured a small quantity of whisky and became slightly intoxicated. *‘Gene Johnson, who has charge of the military forces, being informed of the doings of the men, caused them to be put into the guard- house immediately.

DES MOINES, June 1.-—(Special Telegram to The Bee.)—Reports from Muchikinock and Evans today state that all was quiet and nc trouble was anticipated. The strikers, as has been their custom for ten days past, paraded to the music of a brass band, made speeches and exerted themselves to get the workers to join them, but so far Without success. The state troops are having a good time and nothing to do. It Is probable they will with- draw soon, the preservation of order being left to the sheriff and his deputies and some sixty Pinkertons, employed by the North- western Railroad company. The strikers are congregating from towns in the vicinity to hold a monster meeting and barbecue Sunday, and 2,000 are expected to be present. President Clarkson of the State Miners union held a conference with Major Loper, commanding the troops, and fnvited the militia to attend the barbecue. Major Hume arrived in Des Molnes today trom Muchikinock. He sald he believed that had’ not the troops arrived on the scene as they did trouble would have ensued, with probable great loss of life dnd property. e thinks there Is danger yet, for both sides are determined. One of the operators said if bloodshed starts the colored men will not leave a striker in the yidinity to tell the story. All hope the mattér can be settled without serious consequences. Major Hume says he looks for the crisis’to be reached by Tuesday or Thursday of next week. 50 M’BRIDE DISCOUNTENANCES VIOLENCE. Tells the Miners They Must Not Interfere with Coal Trains. COLUMBUS, 0., June 1.—The officers of the United Mine Workers of America will hold a consultation herg 'next Tuesday on the coul situation. John McBride returned today from Spring- fleld, T1L. The Norfolk & Western railroad, having complained that the miners at Wellstown and Coalstown, O., threatened to stop the moving of coal trains from Virginia, Mr. Me- Bride telegraphed to his lieutenant, Joshua Thomas: “Reported here your men intend to stop coal shipments over the Norfolk & Western road and will destroy property if other means fail. Do not allow such work. “JOHN M'BRIDE.” Mr. McBride said today: ‘“The whole situ- ation hinges on one company in Illinois, the Consolidated Coal company, allas the Wabash railroad, which controls eighty-one mines, or one-fourth of the output of Illinois.” Deputies in Better Spirits. DIVIDE, Colo., June 1.—The deputies were in better spirits today, the sun shining for the first time in three days. Chief Veatch received a telegram from Commls- sloner Boynton stating that reinforcements were coming in and that no move would be made until the party should be large enough to do effective work. Probably no move will be made before Sunday. It Is expected that the deputies will number 1,000 and that they will approach the strikers from three different directions Closing Working Miner WALSENBURG, Cclo.,, June 1.—Six hun- dred of the striking coal miners started south today to bring out the miners in other camps. They will camp at Aguillar tonight. Many of the Fremont county miners have left for home. About 200 remain here to prevent Picton and Walsen men from work- ing. One hundred miners have returned to work at Rouse. The miners at Newcastle, Cal., have gone out on a strike. The grand jury will make an Investigation into the Cripple Creel strike. An effort Is being made to secure another conference between the Ohio miners and operators. The big strike in the Nattonal Tube works at McKeesport, Pa., is in a fair way to be settled by arbitration. Four thousand miners Tenn., who went back to strike, have gone out again. The attorney for the Raven Gold Mining company has appealed from the decision of Judge Hallett, refusing to grant an injunc- tion against the strikjng miners. A party of striking miners yesterday stopped a freight train on the Vandalia road at Brazil, Ind., and searched all the cars fc coal. Not finding apy, they allowed the train to proceed.

No More Concerts at Jefferson Square— Koutine Business Transacted. At the regular meeting of the Board of Park Commissioners yesterday afternoon it was decided to.abandon the concerts at Jef- ferson square. This action was taken on account of the injury done to the grass and trees by the immense erowd at the first con- cert. It was also argued that only those who were near the band stand could hear the music anyway, and the square did not seem adapted for open air_concerts. The bid of Mount & Grifiin to sprinkle North Nineteenth strect was accepted, and they will begin operations at once. It was also decided to lower the sidewalks slightly, s it was thought that that would improve the street for boulevard purposes. Judge Hascall reported what had been done by the council with regard to the southeast boule- vard, and the board decided to let the coun- cil go ahead and do all that it would before taking any hand in the matter itself.
