THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: MONDAY, JUNE AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA Tax Oommissioner Fleming and Deputies Oomplete Assessment. TEACHERS' EXAMINATIONS BEGIN JUNE 19 Project for an Organization of Sol- dlers Who Served in Philippine Islands—General News from Magie City. faturday Tax Commissioner Fitzgerald and his deputies completed the city assese- ment for 1502. In the making of these lists the commissioner and nine depaties have been employed for forty-five days. It will be Monday noon at least before any definite figures can be given out. At that time the Board of Review will meet and then Mr. Fitzgerald will present his figures. The board will then proceed to hear complaints and endeavor to adjust the valuations ac- cording to its own ideas. Last year, after @ three days’ eession, the Board of Review increased \the total assessment as returned by the ta commissioner $125,000. There 18 a report that the increase will be much larger this year, but there i no authority for the statement. Untll it is known what Mr. Fitzgerald has done the matter of val- uation {s mere speculation. It has been meserted, however, that there would be a general ralse and that the valuation would be increased in order that the levy might De lowered. On account of the fact that in the day- ®ime the council chamber is used as a po- lico court, it is possible that the Board of Review may hold evening seselons. Last year the corporations made & bard fight @gainst an Increase in assessment and it presumed that the same thing will be done over agaln this year, Taxpayers are showing considerable interest in the out- come and the actions and findings of the Board of Review will be closely watched. Teachers’ Exsminations. The board of examiners appolnted by the Board of Education recently to examine teachers yesterday prepared a schedule, which it is asserted will be carried out. The examinations will be held in the as- sembly room in the High school building, and will commence on June 19. The fore- noon session will be made up of examina- tions in reading, arithmetic and orthog- raphy. In the afternoon the session will be devoted to grammar and theory and practice, closing with music. On the day following the examiners will have the class take up geography, penman- ship and drawing in the morning, and in the afternoon physiology and English com- position. Saturday, June 21 will be the last day of the examination, when the teachers for positions in both the High #chool and the lower grades will be asked questions in the higher branches. Philippine Veterans. An effort is to be made here to organize an assoclation of soldlers who have served in the Philippines. For this purpose a meet- 4ng will be held at the cavalry troop armory on Monday evening. It is understood that regulars and volunteers will be admitted to membership. Those who are pushing the movement assert that ahout two dozen vol- unteers now reside in this city. With the mssistance of the regulars from the Twen- ty-second United States infantry it s ex- pected that quite a membership can be se- pured. St. Agnes Boyws.

David Anderson submits the follow- Ing communication: BOUTH OMAHA, June 14—To the Editor of Tho Bee: I notice that Mr. Van Dusen’s rlends charge that Mayor Koutsky and on Rosewater are responsible for the result at our primaries on yesterday. I therefore wish to declare most em- hatlcally trat T have not mot nor spoken Mr. Resewater or Mr, Koutsky upon the subject of electing delegates to the re- putiican, otate convention, and only con- sentod to be a delegate at the ecarnest sol't lietion of a large number of my per- #onul and political friends, who seemed disutisted with the make-up of the pe- titien canddates.

GRADUATING CLASS BANQUET Young Men and Women Celebrate Close of Their Public School Labors, Some to years of arduous toll, others to lives of ease perhaps, but all looking for- ward to futures still aureate through the rosy glasses of youth, and all looking back- ward upon four years in the Omaba High school that now seem to have brimmed with happiness, the senfors just graduating from that institution gAthered round a gor- geous banquet board in the dining room of the Millard Saturday night in a final meet- ing of the class of '02, which now takes its place as last on the long list of alumni. Despite the storm they were almost all there, more than a hundred of them, and the occasion proved the happiest event of many years spent together, which, as the last gathering of these boys and girls as High school students, it should righttully have been, Almost alone in thelr graduating glory were these lads and lassles last night. No marauding bands of offending lower class- men appeared to mar the dignity or de- corum of the affalr, and, eave for Principal Waterhouse and Mrs. Waterhouse, together with those of the teaching staft who have had charge of the senior class, Miss Kate McHugh and Miss A. L. Peterson, attend- ance at the banquet was confined to mem- bers of the class of '02. A. A. Kilkenney wae toastmaster, and, after an elaborate repast of ten courses had been completed, he called first of all upon Principal Waterhouse, who bade God- speed these, his charges of three years past. Then Miss Peterson spoke for the teachers of the enfor class, and after that the eentors themselves had a volce, All the features of a scholastic course were covered, memorable experiences, traditions, retrospection an general, Introspection in particular, and prospects ad Infinitum. “The High School” was Mary Bedwell's tople, while Watson B. Smith rehearsed the more striking bits of the class history in “Annsles Seriorum. Fredericka Mec- Intosh devoted herself to “Sponsors and Their Opinions,” while Harry G. Kelley could not refrain from re-telling once again the loved story of “‘Our Girls at Camp.” the girls who will never be there agaln. Mae L. Weeks told of “The G. T. C. from Within,” whatever that may be, and last came Walter E. Standeven with “A Bloomin' Paper and Hits Relation to 'Igh School 'Appenings,” which proved a clever skit. Finally, after those last nice things were once more sald, the class of ‘02 broke up and became a mere heterogenous col- lection of individual alumni, like all the classes that have gone before. NOMINATES READ FOR JUDGE Republican Convention of Fourth Ju- dicial District Names Candi- date Unanimously, The republican convention of the fourth judicial convention nominated Guy R. C. Read for judge and transacted all of {ita other business in less than fifteen minutes yesterday afternoon. The convention was held at Washington hall and was called to order at 3 o'clock by H. H. Baldrige, chair- man of the judiclal committee. On motion of W. I. Klerstead, Mr. Baldrige was made temporary chairman and F. . Woodland of the Fifth ward temporary secretary, and then the temporary organization was made permanent. Charles Altstadt of South Omaha moved that Guy R. C. Read be nominated for judge by acclamation, and the motion was carried with enthusiasm. Chairman Bald- rige named A. 8. Ritchie of Douglas, E. B. Carrigan of Washington, Judge Wilson of Sarpy and C. W. Conkling of Burt as a committee to notify Judge Read of his nomination, and the convention took a re- cess to awalt the appearance of its nominee. ‘Within a few minutes Judge Read was escorted into the convention hall and in- troduced as the member of the judiclary to be elected this fall. The judge made a very brief speech in which he thanked the delegates for the honor given him and said that his conception of the duties of the office for which he had been nominated was to make an honest and consclentious effort to interpret the law without fear or favor. After the convention adjourned all of the delegates congratulated Judge Read on his unanimous nomination and predicted his election by a blg majority. He is nominated to fill the unexpired term of Judge Ben S. Baker, resigned, which ends December 31, 1903. Several months ago when Judge Baker resigned, the governor appointed Judge Read to fill the vacaney until the next general election. BALLOONIST LANDS IN IOWA Courtland Beach Aeronaut Who Went Up Friday Night is Safe and Sound. Balloonist Free, who went up from Court- land Beach on Friday night and failed to come down within the specified limit, thereby glylng the management a fright, landed all right in Jowa. He found his par- achute tackle had fouled in some way, s0 be ‘stmply rode out the flight with the balloon, making & trip some seven miles north of the starting polnt. He came down on the lowa side of the river, in the front yard of a farmer, and reported as early as possible yesterday, but not in time to pre- vent the dispatch of several searching parties. who were regaled before leaving with stories of the disappearance of the ili- fated aeronaut who went up on the night of July 8, 1892, and has never since been seen. Free did mot go up last night, but will continue to make ascensions from Courtland Beach. NO CONTESTING DELEGATES County Executive Committee Orders Credentials Issued for Pub- Ished List.

WANT GOVERNMENTAL LINE Oanada Greatly Fears the Morgan Bteam- ship Oombine, PROMPT ACTION SURE TO FOLLOW | Service May Be Established Under the Ausploes Both Canadian and Imperial Gov- ernments, of OTTAWA, June 15.—(Special Telegram.) —The thing which has held attention in Canada this week more than anything else has been the possibility of getting a gov- ernmental fast line between Great Britain and the Dominion. The danger to Canada from the Morgan Steamship combine has become 8o threatening that it has become necessary to act promptly, and it is gen- erally expected that at the inter-colonial conference steps will be taken immediately to establish a service under the auspices of both the Canadian and imperial govern- ments, For years there was one Canadlan line, the Beaver, now known as the Dempster line, which has kept aloof from the com- bination of trans-atlantic steamers, but of late it looks as it this line might succumb also and join the Morgan crowd. That the situation 1s very serlous is gen- erally admitted. Active competition is being threatened by the American and Ger- man {nterests of the Morgan syndicate with the Dempster line in their South African trade at present and no matter whether the company is driven out of business or driven into Morgan's hands, it would mean an immediate increase in all the varlous steamship rates between Canada and Eu- rope. The steerage rate would not be exempt from this and any important in- crease in that would have a bad effect upon the emigration to Canada. The only way in which the great combina- tion now existing can be fought is by the government establishing a steamship line of its own without loss of time, no matter whether it be elow or fast, as long as it is there for the present to take care of the emligrants whom the Morgan combine would like to exclude. One thing Canadians think Mr. Morgan will never be able to corner and that is the fish supply of the Pacific. Just for the present the Canadians have the advantage of the Americans in the matter of the sal- mon, at any rate. Speculation upon what the representa- tives of the colonies and thie empire may or may not do at the inter-colonial conference in regard to general trade matters will keep the minds of Canadians occupled for some time to come, but it is pretty certain that Sir Wiltred Laurfer will'make the strongest possible opposition to Sir Michael Hicks- Beach’s proposal for free trade between the various colonies and Great Britain.

Smith, on relinquishing command of the Sixth separate brigade in the Philippines, preliminary to his return to the United States is of more than ordi- nary interest on account of the eriticism of that officer's conduct of the campaigns in Samar and Leyte. The order is as fol- lows: Pursuant to telegraph instructions from division headquarters the undersigned here- by relinquishes command of the ~Sixth separate brigade. For over forty years his dally life has been identified with the soldlers of our army, and naturally he has had a large and varfed experience of them and their duties. And never in this long period has he seen them confronted with experiences €0 novel, 8o difficult and which required such courage, persistency and pluck as those {mposed upon them by the amar campalgn now closing. Never has American manhood responded more cheer- fully and intelligently, Never were hard- ships more gallantly faced. The trials of hewing away tropical jungle in a roadless country, sore and bieeding feet with cloth. ing soaked for weeks at a_time, infrequent meals and often scanty ratlons—all have been met with a courage and virility which, showing her young manhood, bodes el forthe Futire’ of America and her ag. From such troops as these thelr brigade commander takes his leave with mingled feellngs of pride, satisfaction and sorrow —pride and satisfaction in thelr achleve- ments; sorrow that the nevitable hour of parting has come. To them all, as well as to the troops In Leyte, the members of the navy and marine corps who have done well and so lovally assisted him in all of thelr undertakings and to the mem- bers of the brigade staff who have ever met each duty with an ability which have made possible the results achieved, the brigade commander offers the assurance of his appreciation of what they have borne and done, and his deeply felt thanks therefor, HAY’S RESOLUTION FAILS Virginian's Attempt to Precipitate De- bate on Cost of Phillppine ‘War is Futile. WASHINGTON, June 15.—The feature of the house's session yesterday was the at- tempt of Mr. Hay of Virginia to secure the adoption of a resolution calling upon the secretary of war for information as to the cost from all sources of the war in the Philippines. The resolution had been re- ferred to the committeo on insular affairs, and not having been acted upon within the time 1imit prescribed by the rules, became privileged. When Mr. Hay called it up, Mr. Crumpacker of Indiana moved to lay it on the table, and his motion prevailed by a party vote, 91 to 66. The latter part of the session was devoted to private pen- elon legislation, 199 bills being passed. A Dbill was passed to validate certain acts of the territorial legislature of New Mexico relative to the issuance of bonds. A bill wae passed to change the fees of United States marshals, deputles and wit- nesses in the Indian Territory. The bill was recommended by the Department of Justice. % A bill was passed for a bridge across the White river near Newport, Ark. DEWEY IS TO RETURN TO SEA Admiral Will Become Supreme Com- mander of Powerful Amer- ican Fleet, WASHINGTON, June 15.—Admiral Dewey 1s to go to sea again flying his fiag with the four stars in command of the greatest fleot in numbers the United States has gotten. together since the days of the civil war and far more powerful in officers and de- fense than any of those war fleets. Secretary Moody has concelved the idea and after consulting the pleasure of Ad- miral Dewey, 1t has been arranged that he shall be placed in supreme command of the fleet (comprising the North Atlantic squadron, the European and the South At- lantic squadron) which is to assemble near Culebra fsland in the West Indies, next December, for the winter maneuvers. Sce- retary Moody himself desires to witness these maneuvers, and it is even possible that the president may find time to make a voyage to the south to see the big iron- clads in war movements. Admiral Dewey goes gladly to his work. Crowds at Courtland Beach. Courtland Beach had a larger attendance yesterday than any day this season, not- withstanding the cool weather. Barly in the day picnic parties, composed of whole familles with well-laden baskets and nu- merous little ones, in many instances, spread thelr hammocks in the nicely shaded grove and prepared for a day's enjoyment. By 1:30 o'clock in the afternoon every one of the twenty-four regular Sherman avenue Courtland Beach trains were crowded and Superintendent Tucker found it necessary to more than double that num- ber. By 2:30 o'clock all the extra trains were handling their full quota and con- tinued to do so untll late in the evening. After the performance of the Faust family in the afternoon, the cars returning to the city were well patronized, and from then unti] 10:30 o'clock cars golng In both direc- tions were crowded. The Faust family of nine persons, five of which are children, ranging from 4% years old up, gave two very pleasing and entertaining artistic ac- robatic performances. They give two per- formances each day this week, and from the highly appreciative audiences and the extent of the applause glven them yester- day, Manager Grifiths anticipates a large afternoon attendance of women and chil- dren the entire week. During the whole afternoon people sat on the wide verandas of the paviliion, many of them with wraps on, others with coat collars turned up, watching the numerous men and women bathers. It was a pecullar sight, but as it was the first really clear afternoon the people had & chance to visit Lake Court- land since Decoration day, they seemingly enjoyed their outing immensely. Manager Grifiths said the attendance proved con- clusively to him that all that was nece sary was the right kind of weatber and Lake Courtland would again prove its pop- ularity with the public. Nordin's orches- tra gave its regular concerts, and while the management regrets the bowling alleys are not quite completed, the bowlers will find thelr interests will be improved by the short delay, as no pains nor expense has been spared to make them perfect in every ~way.

JOSEPH, Mich., June 15.—The storm which swept over the central portion of Michigan last night developed into a tor- nado in the northeastern portion of the state, where it reaped a harvest of six victims. Mrs. Tapping, living near Ensley; Charles Gardner, a farmer near Minith, and Earn- est Gardner of Stockbridge were killed by lightning while seeking shelter In a farm barn. X Edward Berritt, in Bay county, was killed in his barn, which was lifted from its foun- dations and wrecked. On the G. H.
