REDUCED Attempt to Raise San Francisco’s Assess- ment Fails. THREE TOTWO THE VOTE. The Reductions in Thirly-Six Counties Will Aggregate £90,000,000. STATE TAX MAY CENTS. REACH 51 Eoard of Equalization Declares the Actlon on San Francisco F.nal. SACRAMENTOQ, CaL. pt. 8.—There was no preliminary skirmishing when the State Board of Equalization met this fore- noon. After the minutes for several meet- ings had been read and approved by a roll-call vote to make the approval cer- tain, the board was ready for action. Beamer threw the first bomb. He moved that 8an Francisco’s assessment be raised 20 per cent, Chairman Morehouse seconded the motion. The roll was called. Morehouse and Beamer voted aye. Ar- nold, Chesebrougi and Controller Colgan voted no. S | City wounld have been o secretary shou'd send out notices inform- ing County Auditors of the reductions al- ready granted. The Controller asked the questior, *'Is the action of the board final s0 far?” Colgan moved that the action of the board fo far be deemed conclusive and final. The motion was carried, Colgan, Chesebrough anl Arnold voting in the af- firmative. The point whether under the motion San Francisco coutd be again considered was raised. Morehouse was inclined to the opinion that the San Francisco case could bs reopened. Beamer replied: *I could not vote now to raise San Francisco after <o many counties have been re- dnced.” It was the sense of the board expressed istinctly by four members—Chesebrough, Arnold, Colgan and Beamer—that the ac- | tion on Ban Francisco was final. The result of the dsy's contest is re- earded as a victory for San Franciscoin a modified degree. The reductions on in- terior assessments, which aggre:ate §$90,- 000,00, will increase the amount to be paid by San Francisco, as tne State tax, including the 2 cents for the university., will be a fraction under 51 cents. Had the valuation been increased £0 per cent the mrelled to pay into the State treasury $180,000 more thai she wiil now ba obliged 10 pay py reason | of interior reductions. An additionnl advzntage to San Fran- cisco is the (flicial recognition by the S:ate Board of Equaiization that San Fraucisco is assessed up io tae line of actual cash value. Hud there been an increase the increase would have fallen on the real estate of the poor holder where the assessment ex- ceeded the mortgage. When there is a mortzage for $1000, and the properiy 1s valued for assessment at $.00), the tax is on the morigage, but any increase would be a tax on the real estate to the amount of the increase. The valuation cf State prorertv for this | forty-ninth fiscal year will b= $1,050,000,0C0. The railroad companies wili nave to pay |'a tax of 51 cents on $13,000,0(0 Had San | Francisco been increased, und the interior | not reduc , a valuation of §! There was silence for a minute, and then | Beamer moved to raise San Francisco 15 per cent. The motion was lost, the mem- bers voting as they did on the first props- eition. As Beamer had nothing else to offer at | that time Arnold moved that the assess- ment of Los Angeles be reducad 10 per cent. The motion was seconded by Chese- brough. The motion prevailed, Colgan, Arno.d and Chesebrough voting in the sffirmative and Morehouse and Beamer in the negative, When the vote was an- nounced Mr. Beamer said: “I move that Alameda be reduced 13 per cent, if this is the way we are going to equalize.” The motion did not receive a second, but Beamer met with better success in getling some one to stand in with him when he made another motion to increase San Francisco 10 per cent. More:ouse yromptiy responded as a second t)this motion, but the proposition was voted down Ly Chesebrough, Colgan and Ar- nold. Arnold moved that Riverside, Orange, Kern, Ventura and San Benito be each re- duced 10 per cent. The vote was taken on each councy separately. Mcrehouse voted in the negative becanse he thought these counties ought to be reduced 15 per cent if San Francisco was not Arnoid’s efforts to secure a 10 per cent re- duc ion were successful and later on he chiained reconsideration and gota 15 per cent decrease. Butte County was reduced 15 per cent on motion of Beamer, seconded by More- house, Arnold and Chesebrough voting no. Colusz was reduced 15 per cent, Arnold and Chesebrough voting ro. Glenn, Hum- boldt, Marin and Merced were reduced 15 per cent on motion of Beamer. Chese- brough voted in favor of the Merced re- duction, as a large increase in the valua- tion of this county had been recorded. Arnold interposed to say to Beamer: “1f you are going down the line on this 15 per cent aecrease I will put scme of the southern counties in the list.” Napa, Shasta, Sonoma, Satter, Tehama, Yoia, Yuba and Mendocino were each re- duced 15 per cent on the votes of More- house, Beamer, Arnold and Colgan. Chese- brough voted no on each call, Alameda was reduced 10 per cent und the same reduction was made in the assess- ment of Santa Clzra County, Chesebrough alone voting in the necative. San Luis Obispo, Kings and Santa Barbara were reduced 15 per cent. Arnold got the 15 per cent reduction to apply to his southe:n counties that had been previous.y red.ced 10 per cent. Menterey, Santa Crioz, Fresno, Madera, San D.ego, Mono, Inyo, Stanisiaus, Leoke, Mariposa, Sacramento, Tulare, San Mateo and Amador, were reduced, some obtaining 10 and others 15 per cent of decrease. Centroller Colzan became apprehensive that the reductions were going too far and being applied to counties which preferred that the assessments should stand as returned. The poini was raised that some of the counties had mucn difficulty in finding taxabie property sufficient 1o sus- tain the legitimate expenses of county government, and that a reduction micht work hardship rather than benetit. The Controller moved to rescind ail the work of the board. Arnold seconded this motion and then withdrew the second. Chesebrough then seconded the motion ot the Controller, and the roll was called with this resuit: Ayes—Colgan, Chesebrough, Arnold. Noes—Morehouse, Beamer. The board now found itself in the samn position that it occupied when the session of t.e day opened. A conference discl osed s determination to proceed again ratuer than adjourn. Morekouse reopened the engagement by a motiou to increase San Francisco 25 per cent. Beamer gave the motion a second. Colgan, Chesebrough and Arno.d voted no, and defeated the motion. The tollowing counties were then re- duced 10 per cent: Los Angeles, Alameda, San Joaquin, Santa Clara, Monterey, San Bernardino, Fresno, Santa Cruz, San Diego, Tulare and San Mateo. The following counties were reduced 15 per cent: Riverside, Orange, Ventura, Bun Benito, Kern, G enn, Humb Id1, 8 noms, Yolo, Napa, Solano, Marin, Mend. cino, Shasta, Tehama, Yuba, Butie, Co- Iusa, Butter, Merced, Madera, Kings, San Lut« Obispo, Santa Barbara and Stanis- | laus. A proposition to reduce Sucramento 10 per cent encountered the opposition of Arnoid. He aid not believe that the assessment was high. In his judgment tbe rule that appiied to San Francisco shonid apply to Sacramento. Beamer made several efforts o get a redluction for Sacramento, sugresting that if 10 per cent was not agreeabe 7)4 should be grantea. Morehouse remarkeu that his mind con- stantly reverted to the injustice of not in- crearing San Francise.. Arnold reminded his fellow-members that Sacramento re- ce.ved many benefits from the disburse- ment of Siaie money and that the county was not highly assessed. Beamer coulid not get a second 1o a motion to reduce Sa remento 5 per cent. The subject was discussed whether the to be raised. | d, the roads wonld have had (o pay only 43 cents on $43 000,000, The reduction will deminish the revenue of the State University below some of the expectations. It was figured last winter that the institution would get 2 cents on 000. Ali the reductions made to-day apply to real estate. The roll of counties, other than Ban Francisco, as returned to the board, is here given, with monev and 1t credits deducted.

John A. McKerron, a Nu'wood Colt, Takes the Stake for Youngsters. Sore and Unable to Extend Him- self, Prince Ansel Makes a Poor Showing. SACRAMENTO, CaL, Sept. 8.—The big 2:10 trot proved quite as much of a drawing card at the track to-day as the runners dia yesterday. The speculating division was well represented in the re- gion of the poolboxes, and the grand- stand was comfortably filled with the fair six Auction pools and paris mutuels, al- though still advocated by a few silurians of a past aze, are apparently a thing of the past in this State, for the pooling this aflernoon was very light. It was a good day for betters, the favorite takingz the big end of the purse in each instance. John A. McKerron, a good-looking Nut- wood colt, Peko, Jasper Ayers and Uncle Johnny were the coin getters. Starter Covey was in good form, dispatching his fields witn very little scoring. The 2:10 trot was third on the pro- gramme, the heats being sandwitched in with the 2:24 trot. Jasper Ayers, the Visalia horse, driven by Johnny Perkins, was installed a warm favorite in the pools at the outset, bringing $22 against $10 for the field, comprising Mamie Griffin, Tora and Wayland W, and $8 for Stam B. The latter horse was lame, but hung on gamely in every heat. In the opening heat Ethel Downs drew the pole position, and traveling very smoothly, downed Stam B hali a length in a hard drive. Time, 2:13 Jasper Ayers broke at the first turn, but finished a re- freshing third. After this Jasper sold for $25, the field $6 and Stam B §4 Ethel Downs again led to the stretch in the sec- ond beat, but was outtrotted to the wire by the favorite, which won easily in 2:14 Inthe next two heats Eihel Downs and tam B tried to make it warm for Perkins’ horse, but he held them safe and annexed the purse without much «ffort. The two-year-cld trotiing stake, with a gross value of $610, drew out but three starters—Prince Ansel, Dr. Frasse and John A. McKerron. The field sola favorite at §20, with the Prince bringing $14. The latter youngster was sore and unable to he race. It was soon apparent that Me- Kerron held his company safe, and he won | in straieht heats, stepping off the secund | mile in 3. The dark viue colors of Palo Alto stock farm, worn by Dick Havey bebina Peko, issued victorious from the 2 trot. In the opening pools sold the Palo Alto horse was an overwhelming choice, sell- ing for $20, while the field, consisting of Sable Frarcis, Palermo, Winnella and Osito, could be had for $6 Osito tock the fi:sttwo . eats, but it did not seem to phase thesupporters of Peko, for they con- tinued backing their horse, which now <old in the field at $18 azainst $20 for Osito. In the third beat Peko went away in the lead and was never extended; win- ning in a Jog from Osito. The remaining two neats were repetitions of the third, Peko finishing first, witn QOsito at his wheel. The three-year-old stake was no contest at all. Uncie Johnny and Central Girl were the only starters and the added money was withdrawn by the societv, the pair going for the entrance money. There was no betting and in the first heat the Girl wasdistanced, which ended the affair. Trouing stake. two-vear-o'ds, 2:10 ciass, heats two in three, va ue $610. John_A.

Y., Sept. 8.—Police in- terference put an end to the Ryan-McCoy fight in the fifth round here tc-night, when Ryan was doing the majority of ihe work aud chasing McCoy all over the ring, infl cting a series of wicked inside unper- cuts, Although by no means going, Mc- Coy was having the worst of the contest when Inspector O'Brien rang the zong and Referee George Siler of Chicago s=nt the men to their corners and announced the bout a draw. McCoy played a lively tattoo on Ryan's jaw with his left in the first few roun but after that Tommy resorted to in- fighting and did much better at this method. George S ler siid to a represent- ative of the Associated Press after the fight: “‘Ryan had the better of the last round, ! but there was only one decision possible urder the circumstances and I gave it There was no mnecessity for police inter- ference, as bo.h men were strong enough o con:inue the tight,” Nate Fenton, McCoy’s backer, created a scene by jumping into the ring and shout- ing that the tiing had been tixed. *‘This man,’” he said, pointing to Police Inspec- tor O'Brien, “knew at what point he was going to stop the fight.”” There was a scene of the greatest confusion, and had nota strong force of policemen been on hand trouble would have ensued. There were 3500 people -in the ring, with McCoy a strong favorite in the bet- ling, and many of them thought they bad been bunkoed ani did not hesitate to express their feelings. _ The betting at the ringside was10to 7 in favor of McCoy, the McCoy contiugent reiuzing to come down to the odds wanted by the Ryan men of 210 1.

Y., Sept. 8 —Early this alternoon Kid McCoy and Dan Creedon signed articles drawn up by Sam Austin of New York calling for a fight between the 1wo men. The §1000 each posted by McCoy and Creedon with Al Smith is to be forieited if either man refuses to accept the largest purse offered within five weeks. The articles are so drauwn that they call for no particular number of rounds, and the fight may be a finish or a limited round contest. NOTES OI‘_T_KE THEATERS. “Twelve Temptations’’ Seems to Ba Al- Juring—Tiilie Sallinger’s Roturn. “The Heart of Maryland” has only a few more days to run at the Baldwin. Wilijam H. Grane and his company are expected 1o reach this City to-day, and on Monday they will open in Martha Morton’s new drams, “A Fool of Fortune.' “The Twelve Temptations” allured a large audience to the Columbia Theater lust night, Inspite of the maironly appesrance of some of the chorus glrls and the slight incoherence of the plot the performance seems to be at- tracting popular favor. Money was turned awey trom the Tivoli last night at pos:tively the last performance of “lLa Gloconda.” Mme. Kronold has to be back again at Frankfort before the end of this mounth, and her almost immediate depariure will preveut the fine opern from being seen here again this season. ‘La Cavalleria” and “I Pagliscci” will be performed for tne rest of the week. On Tue-day Tillie Saliinger, a for- mer favorite with Tivoll audisnces. will make ner reappearance after an absence of over two years. “The First Born™ has greatly benefited from the pruning and furbishing which it bas un- dergone from David Belasco’s accompiished hand. The ac.on is now more condensed and dramatic. Biz audiences at the Alcez.r con- mm: to attest the popularity of the little work. People anxious to see the "*Heart of Mary- land” under another name are going in greai numbers to the Grand to sample Gassaway’s “Dandy Filth.” The general verdict is that the resemblance between the 1wo plays is not sogreat as it has been painted, Van Aucken, McPnee and Hill are astonish- ing Orpheum audiences by their remarkable acrobatic performances. tn and Ashley, the “Walking Delecates,” are doing well, und the rest of the biil is upto the urual standard. ————— 4¢01d Friends’’ Presentation.
