The idea of such a con-| vention has been favorably recelved and, with few exceptions, the Assessors of the State have expressed their intention of attending. Many questions of importance to the people of the State will be discussed, such as the uniform assessment of various kinds of property in the different coun- »s, needed amendments to the revenue aws and certain recommendations to the | Legislature in this connection. It is anticipated that the Assessors will be able to agree upon a uniform course | of sction in regard to the assessment of | various kinds of property, including not | only lands, livestock and cereals, but also | the property possessed by corporations, which will be a distinct step in advance. COMMIS3IONERS ASSUME OFFIGE The Mayor’'s office presented a busy scene yesterday morning when the ap- pointeees to the various municipal com- missions made their appearance and | were given their commissions by Mayor Schmitz. The new Commissioners pre- sented thelr officlal bonds to the Mayor John J. Barrett, Fire Commissioner, presented his credentlals to the Fire Commission, which held a special session for the purpose. Commissioners Watt and Hecht paid a tribute to the retiring Commissioner, John H. Grady, who, however, was not present. Nominations were then made for president of the com- | mission to succeed Hecht. Barrett named Commissioner Parry and Watt nominated Hecht. Parry and Barrett voted for Parry, and Hecht and Watt performed a similar service for Hecht. There being a deadlock a new president was not elected and Hecht will continue to serve as such. As the Police Commission did not meet, John A. Drinkhouse was unable to take his seat. Lawrence F. Walsh took the place va- cated by James Denman on the Board of Education, which also held a special session.

We have concluded, therefore, to set this case for further heariis at St. Louls on the second Tuesday of Febru- ary, 1903. This will allow time for the car- riers to adjust their tariffs in accordance with the suggestions in this opinion. If befors that date the complainanis notify us that no further hearing is desired, the complaint will be dis- missed; otherwise we will at that time re- quire the attendance of the various transcon- tinental lines and endeavor to obtain such in- formation from other sources as will enable us to make an intelligent order in the premises.
