Tax r-ists Show Increase. , The valuations - fixed by county assessors on each class of personal property show a considerable increase in Comparison with last year, according to tables compiled by the state board of tax commissioners 'The average valuation placed on automobiles is $333.65, while last year it was S3OO. The average valuation on horses and mules for 1914 is $95.33, against $Bl for 1913. The average valuation on cattle has been increased from $29 to $34.66. and hogs show an Increase in valuation for taxable purposes from $6.50 to $8.33. The average valuation on farm implements for 1914 is $54.18, an increase from $51.80. The average valuation of household furniture is ssl, last year's average having been $13.50. The state board found it necessary, for purposes of equalization, to make an arbitrary increase of seven per cent in the assessment of all classes of personal property in Miami county. The increase, the commissioners explained, was made because the Miami county board of review had failed to follow instructions in assessing bank stock. The commission does not have authority to increase the valuation of any one class of personal property, and all classes must suffer when equalization becomes necessary. The Miami county board of review assessed banks at only 70 per cent, of the value of their stock, Instead of 75, as was done in all other counties. With this low valuation of bank stock, the county showed a total increase in the value of personal property in comparison with last year of $199,985. The valuations placed on 1 railroads, Interurban lines and other classes of property assessed by the state board aggregate $269,902,944, according to figures compiled by Ed Stenger, clerk of the board. Previous totals announced were made before the board sat as a board of appeal and made changes In some of the assessments. The valuation of 1914 is $6,075,394 greater than for 1913. The valuations

Baptist Assembly Closes. The closing session of the Indiana Baptist assembly was held at Franklin college. Many of the lectures were of an especially high order and class work has been faithfully done on a number of important phases of church and Sunday school work. Special mention should be made of the Bible work given by Dr. George Gullle of the Moody institute, Chicago; the art work of Miss Marguerite Glenn, and the special series of lectures on religious education, given by the Rev. William E. Chalmers of Philadelphia. An "all-state" program of high quality was given. Miss Mae Nicholson of Clayton gave two piano selections. Solos were sung by Claude Hanns of Worthington, and Mrs. Charles Colbert of Plainfield. The Rev. U. 8. Clutton gave two illustrations of moral lessons by means of "magic.’’ A series of pictures with local color were shown, and each of the four sections of the state gave an entertainment. The Rev. C. M. Dinsmore of Anderson, president of the Indiana Baptist state convention, gave a closing address on “Sitting on the Bleachers.” More than two hundred were enrolled as regular delegates, while many others attended Individual sessions. Sixty certificates were given for completed courses of study.

Get Pay on New Basis. Indiana rural mail carriers will receive their pay on the new basis this month. Vouchers were made out at the Indianapolis post office for the distribution of wages amounting to >215,000 to the 2,600 carriers in the state. The money Is for work in July, and the order for the new basis became effective July 1. This is the first time that the pay roll has been made under the new plan, which provides wages on a basis of the length of routes, the number of pieces of mail carried, and the weight of the mail. The new plan provides an increase for many carriers, while with none does it mean a cut in pay. The increase in the payroll for the state is about >20,000. The total wages formerly amounted to >195,000 a month The 17 carriers from the Indianapolis office received from >1,124 up The routes are known as standard routes, each being more than twenty-four miles long'. The new basis for pay provides wages from >4BO up.

Praises Farmers of Indiana. ' The Indiana farmers are just a little better than any I have come in contact with," said 1. F. Paschall, advertising manager of the Farm Journal, a Philadelphia publication, who was at Indianapolis for a brief rest after a three weeks’ trip among the farmers of four states. Mr. Paschall is accompanied by three other members of the staff of the Farm Journal and, as he expressed it, they are traveling about interviewing farmers "to see what ihey are interested in, what they are talking about, what they want and where they send their children to school." Indiana farmers seem to take better care of their roads than any 1 have seen on this trip," Mr. Paschall continued, "and they are all giving their children a splendid education. A short distance from Terre Haute I called on a farmer who has a family of six children. Five of them have graduated from the State Normal school and the sixth is ready to go Three of his daughters are teaching school and the eldest son is general manager of a big farm in that locality. This is typical of what I have seen in Indiana." Mr. Paschall and the other members of the staff of the Farm Journal, including Miss E. G. Gussman, associate editor; Miss S. A. Westermann. office manager, and A. S. Jenkins, head of the business pnd planning department, have started on a six weeks' trip as a means of getting into touch with farmers.

Demand for Coal Improving. The demand for coal at Indiana mines is better, especially for domestic quality. The retail dealers in most cities which use the Indiana product are enabled to offer to lay in winter supplies at lower prices than for several years in midsummer and there Is some response to this offer. Operators have been willing to sell at the lowest possible margin to keep the mines in operation and with the demand for steam coal at as low stage as at any time in a year, attention is turned to stimulating the retail trade. The railroads are able to give prompt service, and the retail dealers with orders on hand can count on hauling cars to the consumer's bins. »

Articles of Incorporation. The following Indiana firms have filed articles of incorporation with the secretary of the state: The Ogden Fiber. Gear & Tire company, Columbus, $1,000; to manufacture and sell auto parts. D. Ogden, L. E. Ogden, Hubert S. Ogden. Ridenour-Emison Agency company, Vincennes, $10,000; to deal in njpl estate and rents; , Horace D. Ridenour. Notice has been filed of The dissolution of the Carthage Telephone company of Carthage.

ENGLISH SINK SHIPS

CRUISERS WERE DESTROYED. War Vessels Were In Pursuit of Liner Lusitania —Two Steamers Reach Port. New York, Aug. 7.—The liner Uranium reported on her arrival here that she had intercepted a wireless message from a British cruiser to the liner Lusitania saying that two German cruisers that had been pursuing the Lusitania had been sunk by the British warship. If the news brought by the Uranium is confirmed, a naval battle has been fought less than 200 miles from Neiy York It ie probable that if two German cruisers were sunk the Lusitania was sent out as a decoy and the kaiser's ships caught in a cleverly planned trap. The Karlsruhe and Dresden are the two German ships that have been most frequently mentioned as lying east of the United BEates in wait for British liners. The Karlsruhe, although a small boat, was one of the fastest and neweM ships in the German navy. The boat made 27 knots on her trial trip in 1912 and is said to have exceeded that time in tests since then. Th® Karlsruhe went into commission In 1912. She wais of 4,832 tons displacement, carried 12 four-inch guns and a number of smaller guns. Her officers and crew numbered 370. The Dresden went into commission in 1906. She was 386 feet long, of 3,592 tons displacement and had a speed £f 24.5 knots She carried, in addition to some smaller guns, ten four-inch guns and two torpedo tubes. She carried 361 men. Halifax, N. S., Aug. 7.—Convoyed by the British cruiser Essex, the Cunard liner Mauretania, on her way to New York from Liverpool, with 1,400 passengers aboard, steamed into Halifax harbor.

While at sea the Mauretania sent a wireless to the Essex stating that a German cruiser was following her and asked assistance. The Essex came up Immediately and stood by the Mauretania until she came into. port. As soon as she had safely convoyed the Mauretania into port the Essex went to sea again at full speed to give aid to the Lusitania which is on her way to Europe and wiselessed for assistance.

I British UntiM-r Blown to Atoms by German Mine.

(Continued from Page One)

German torpedo boats off the Suffolk coast. A local press assocaition asserts it was advised of the fight between the fleets by the admiralty. The Admiralty, however, refuses to confirm or deny that a battle is in progress. That there is a naval battle in progress is evidenced by the fact that the hospital authorities at Hull received orders to prepare to receive 250 men wounded in the engagement. Vsrlfiea Report of Naval Battle. The London Chronicle’s correspondent at Harwich has telegraphed his paper that an action or magnitude la progressing in the North sea. A ship owner at Whitby announced he has been informed that a great bat tje has been fought and 19 German warships sunk. The people of Hull, Grimsby and Harwich are convinced of the truth of this reported battle and have been straining their eyes seaward but have seen nothing. There is great excitement along the east coast. Kirkwell reports tel of prolonged firing to the eastward. The Orkneys and Kirkcaldy make similar reports and say that the firing appears to be off the Firth of Forth. Official confirmation of these reports, however, is entirely lacking. Prepare to Care for Wounded. A wireless message received by the British destroyer Virago orders it to prepare to receive 200 prisoners and wounded who are being brought In by a torpedo boat. Twentj-two German and six English wounded have been taken ashore at Harwich and removed to the naval establishment at Shotley. Shipping firms have been informed that the east coast is now clear from Hull to London. Coastwise services have been resumed and fishing vessels are free to proceed to Ireland.

A dispatch to the Times from St. Petersburg says that ten German steamers with coal and timber were seized at Archangel.
