Kills Countryman and Also Three Deputy Sheriffs Sent to Capture Him. BINGHAM UTAH, Nov A here*- battle is raging In an under ground incline connecting the Minnie and Utah Apex mines between the deputy sheriffs and Raphael Lope/, I the Mexican who killed a countryman j in the Highland Boy mine a week ag<< I and later murdered three deputy t .■sheriffs who tried to capture him. J. Douglas Hulsey, a deputy sher iff, and Tom Manderich, an Austrian j miner, members of a j-osse that en- j tered the Andy tunnel this afternoon In an effort to capture Lopez, are dead or seriously wounded as a result I of the battle, and Bi eogl neer of the hoist along the Incline, is missing. The Mexican, hemmed in by dense smoke in the rear, is firing at every shadow along the passageway ir front. A rescue party \\ ith steel p ate* it pn paring , * er t be bodies of Hulsey and Marnier i« h, aft er which another attempt will be i made to smoke Lopez out of the pas- j sage. It was while preparing a I smudge to effectively block up the passageway that the two men were shot. Lopez is well supplied with am munition. Raw War Threatened. There is much excitement to-night in Bingham. A race war is threat ened between the Mexicans and Aus trians in the camp as a result of the shooting of Manderich Sheriff Smith ha* ordered all Mexicans to keep in side their cabins. Three automobiles filled with deputy sheriffs were rush ed here to-night from Salt Lake in anticipation of trouble. The posse, headed by Sheriff Al iens, of Tooele County, entered the Andy tunnel on the 300-foot level of the Utah Apex mine this afternoon for the purpose of constructing smudges at the foot of an incline connecting the Minnie and Andy tun nels. A smudge of burning sulphur previously had been constructed at the mouth of the Minnie tunnel. The posse had reached the incline and had proceeded upward but a short distance when three shots were fired. Hulsey, Dr. Ray and Tom Manderich were somewhat apart from the oth ers, and were preparing to light a fire to start the smudges. Hulsey and the Austrian fell with the first two, the. third whistling past Dr. Ray The latter said that Hulsey groaned once or twice and then lay still. The Austrian never uttered a sound. Fear to Return Fire. The balance of the posse rushed to the mouth of the Incline, but were afraid to at once return the Mexican’s fire because of the probability of bit ting their companions, whose injury they feared, but were not sure of. The killing or fatal injury of Hul sey and the Austrian has effectively prevented the building of smudges, because it is feared that if the two men are not dead the fumes from the smudges ascending to the Minnie tun nel through the incline would surely be fatal. A guard was placed at the foot of the incline to prevent the descent of the Mexican. The poisonous fumes In the Minnie tunnel above him pre vent escape in that direction. WILSON SEES GAME.

OFFERED FO QUIT FAX EQUALIZATION Big Sensation Sprung in Macon Judge Hart Returns From Trip by Publication of Letter by Over State—Tells How the Smith’s Supporters. Law Works. MACON, Nov. 2f».—A! J. Smith, who withdraw his candidacy for the office of Chief of Police a few hours before his election was s- heduled to take place last Tuesday night, wrote the letter of withdrawal only because it was disclosed that he had offt red to “sell out” to the “whisky inter ests” of Macon for JIG 000. This fact is made public to-day in a statement signed by five men who have been Smith’s closest friends and support ers, three of them being J ' i*rinen. Smith, an engineer of the Georgia •Southern and Florida Railroad and a prominent church worker of Macon , and Valdosta, had been indorsed by the Law Enforcement League for the office. He was assured of eight of the twelve Aldennnnic votes, and his elec- ; tion was conceded, although some men opposed to the law and order crusade exerted every effort to beat i him. Alderman Traps Smith. Five hours before Council was due to meet Smith went to Alderman R C. Hazlehurst, one of the four op posing him and one of the two ‘'ad ministration'’ Aldermen in Council. He proposed to Captain H^zlehurst to decline the Chief's yfiice if the saloon- men of the city would give him a sum not less than $10,000. Hazlehurst | agreed to take the proposition under advisement and to let Smith know at 7 o’clock, Instead he sought out Al dermen Pittman and Riley and com municated the facts to them. The three confronted Smith at 7 o'clock, ' an hour before Council meeting, and he finally admitted the facts*. He then , signed the letter withdrawing his can didacy. Smith's Friends Investigate. Because reports contrary to thasu I facts had been circulated, seven : friends of Smith, including four Al dermen. held an investigation yester day afternoon. Smith appeared before them and again acknowledged the I facts. “I don’t think it would be wrong to take money for retiring^, from the race.” he deciart d, “but. of course. T would not have sold out to anybody after taking the oath of office.” Smith at first insisted that he was ! only seeking to entrap Alderman 11a- J zlehurst, whom he believed to repre- I i sent the "liquor interests.” In the statement given to the public to-day by Smith’s friends w r ho conducted the investigation Alderman Hazleflurst :s l “heartily commended for rendering a Judge John C. Hart, State Tax Commissioner, who has been tour ing the State explaining the purposes and operation of the new tax equali zation law. believes the administra tion of the same will be a complete success, and says that the only thin® remaining to be done is the creation by the various County Commission ers of local tax equalization be ( rds compose ! oft he right sort of men. Judge Hart makes the astonishing statement that not more than ore- seventh of the taxable property of Georgia re-.illy is returned for taxa tion, and he expects the new law to bring hundreds of thousnnd? of dol lars in hidden property to light. Hart D<scusses the Law. Discussing the new law Saturday, Judge Hart said: “The success or failure of the new law depend? largely upon the class cf men named by the county authorities on the various county boards. That mut er is now of supreme importance, and I think it is working out right. “It the law is properly ‘adminis tered. instead of Its increasing the burden of taxation, it will lower it on the man who has been doing even approximately his duty. As is known, or at least should be known, by everyone, the State can not raise its rate, for since the year 1907 it ha? been levying the full Constitutional rate, to-wit, 5 mills. The State can levy no additional tax, and this rat* has not raised sufficient revenue to pay the State’s current expenses. The deficit has grown until it has reached a million dollars and over. Sees Chance to Pay Debt. “I made the statement advisedly, after careful investigation, that not exceeding one-seventh of the prop erty value of the State is on the tax digest. If all of the property of the State were put on the digest, where it properly belongs, and placed ther* at a fair valuation, the State of Georgia could pay her debt next year and the tax rate could be materially reduced. “Fair valuation of property, with a low rate of interest, is infinitely pref erable to a low valuation of property and a high tax rate. The new law is designed to place upon the tax di gest all of the property of the State, and then as among the taxpayers to equalize property values relatively, to that each man carries his exact bur den This is the essence of Justice ” distinct public service The affair has caused a genuine j sensation in Macon. $3,500 FOR GIRL'S LEG. I CHICAGO, Nov. 29.—The Chicago Railways Company has been ordered to pay $3,500 for cutting off the right leg of Bernadette Crowell. The child is 12 years old now. She was 9 when she *lost her leg.
