property in Indiana by the state board of tax commissioners is the most important in which the state was ever interested. The decision affects railroad taxes assessed und partially collected for the years lspf. w and 1S'.3. amounting to over seven million dollars, most of which has been paid under protest. To the total amount affected could be added about SH0.O0O. which would represent the penalty attached by the auditor of state for delinquency. Some of the money has passed through the hands of the state and has been ap

plied on the debt. A portion of it is

yet in the hands of the counties, having been paid under protest. To learn the amount paid by each railroad it would be necessary for county officers of the ninety-two counties to make reports. Added to the importance of the decision is the fact that other states have adopted the Indiana laws for assessment. wlijch makes the ruling of as much interest to those states as it is in Indiana.

hundred people, was nearly due. and to avoid a terrible calamity the train had to be stopped. She tore off her little

An Appeal to the Cinernor for .Military Support. Wajimnoton. Ind.. June 2. A mob of i.(mK striking inincrs'from the mining camps of Davics county, has gathered nt Ciiunelbnrg. nine miles east of this city, on the P.tilliuiore .v Ohio Southwestern road, determined to prevent the transportation of coal through this state from t lie Kentucky fields to the markets north of here or from local mines to points outside of tin state.

shoos nt this place, 'lhey offered to

let these go. Sheritf Leming returned to Washington and secured an injunction from the court restraining the miners from interfering with the prop

erty of the railroad company. v hen

he got to Cannelburg with the order of the court the miners received him sul

lenly and refused to allow him to read

it. advising him to return to YSnshmgtnn.

The sheriff reminded the leaders of the governor's proclamation. Issued a few days ago. and told them that if they persisted in their refusal to permit the railroad company to run its trains he would call on the militia to enforce his authority. This had no eJeet upon the strikers,' und the sheriff with his deputies withdrew. During the afternoon news of the morning's events was spread throughout the mining districts of Davics county, and the strikers began to pour into Cannelburg from all directions. Last evening it was estimated that their force numbered 1,000 men. The miners are orderly and say they will attempt no violence, but will nrevent the railroad company from

carrying any coal through here ns long us it Is within tlieir power to do so.

Sheriff Leming telegraphed dov. Mat-

ihoves bist evening, advising him otthe

state of affairs at Cannelburg. and his

inability to restore order there, and ,

isking that the militia be called out to ,

support him.
