This is a reduction of almost one-half from the amount fixed by the local board of aaaeaaora and is in a sense a victory for the company, although to the taxable value of the city will be added the above mentioned sum, realising at least annually betVeen $150,000 and $200,000 which the road will have to pay. In addition to fixing the value of the property for future assessment the decision compels the payment of back taxes on the1 same amount since 1805, the last year ihat the road paid any assessment.

The inalw'a Career. TURKS ARE ANGRY. Cushman Kellogg Davis was born in Henderson, Jefferson county, N. Y., Jnne 10,1838. In that year his parents moved to Waukesha. Wis., where his fathet farmed until 1830. AfteY attending the common schools young Davis spent three year* in Carroll college, at Waukesha, preparing himself for the University of Michigan, from which he graduated in 1867. After his arcduation he entered the law office of Alex W. Randall, afterward war governor of Wisconsin. In 1860 Mr. Davis began the practice of law and also took an active part in the campaign resulting in the election of Lincoln. Two years later, war having come, he closed his law office to enlist in Ike volunteer army. He served for two 8«rs in the Army at the Tennessee In entucky, Tennessee, Arkansas and Mississippi, part of the time on staff duty. When in 18G4 broken health compelled his retirement, he waa first lieutenant of Company B, Twenty-eighth Wisconsin volunteer infantry. Going to St.*Paul, he formed a law partnership with his army chief, General W. A. Gorman, ex-governor of Minnesota territory. In 18&8 he waB elected to the state legislature and two years later was appointed United States district attorney, serving five years in that position. In 1878, By u majority of one vote, he was nominated by the Republicans for governor and elected by a majority of 5,496. The campaign issue was then new, being whether the state could control the charges of railroads. Governor Davis asserted this right, and such legislation was enacted and enforced during hi6 term of office. During a protracted senatorial contest at that session Governor Davis was one of the candidates, but Chief Justice McMillau was finally elected. It was at thiB time that the great grasshopper plague devastated southwestern Minnesota, and Governor Da via raised over $10(£t)00 in money, besides supplies, for the victims of the plague. Governor Davii declined a renomination and resumed the practice of law. His successor, Governor Pillsbury, retained him to argue In the United States supreme court the case of the state of Wisconsin against tne city of Duluth and the state of Minnesota to restrain the opening of the present Duluth ship canal, through which all the commerce of that port now passes. Mr. Davis won the suit for Minnesota. He continued in the practice of law until 1887, also giving considerable attention to politics. In 1884 he headed the Blaine delegation to Chicago, where he made one of the nominating speeches for that candidate. Constantinople, Not. 28.—The relationa between the United States government aud the port* are becoming acute. Lloyd C.

The interview, however, was barren of results. While the porte outwardly persists in the attitude it has assumed re* gardlng the question of granting an exequatur to the United States consul in Harpoot, there is reason to believe the dispatch of the battleship Kentucky to Smyrna has made a marked impression In official circles.
