cxpettii, thete would hnve te be either

'organization of Ihe operating company.
Disregard Rental Contracts
The beauty of the situation, from the
city s point of view, is that the valua
tion proceedings disregard the se-called
tacred contracts or leaden between the
transit company nnd the underlying
companies. When the valuation is
fixed, then the question of rentals,

The company began the valuation of
its properties en July V, 1011). The
valuation of the company in based en
the reproduction value ns of June .'10,
lOlil, when prices were close te the wnr
time high peak. The submission of
the company's) Humes te the Cemmls- 1
slen began en September 2.1 of Inst '
year. The company is expected te con
clude its. case In the week of Decembei
10 next. The city will then, accord-
ing te present plans, present its figures

vnluatlen will be based en thp cost of
reproduction nt the lime of production.
The city will point out that net only

UUle Hnrk, Arlc, Dec. 10. The laBt
cscnpe of Tem Slnughter, noted bandit,
with n record of nearly n score, of breaks
for freedom from southern jails nnd
prisons, led e bin death In the Saline
County hllln nt the hnnds of one of the
cenvIctH he liberated, nccerdlng te the
tlery en which Sheriff U. U. Crewe'H
posses early today were basing their
teurch for Slnughter'B body.
The posses were awaiting daylight
early today te stntt en the trail of the
seven convicts stnrllng from the point
where they abandoned their bullet-riddled
nutmebile nml fled into the weeds.
1 C. Hewnid, who sui rendered with
four etlieis of the six who nccepted
I Slnughter's offer of freedom, told of-
licinls he shot Slnughter, In the bnck nnd
hnd Intemleil In nhoet him from the
moment the party mmle their escnpe.
The note Hewntd says he left In the
ptiseu, bearing tlie same statement,
could net be found early today.
llcslde the body of Slaughter, nr nr
ceiding le Heward's story, lay n dying
Ncgin, wounded in n brush with the
fiutheritiPH of Henton, who were watch
ing ler the llccng prisoners.
Try Te Truce IMslel.
Prison authorities today weie en en
denverlng te trace the source of the
pistol which gave Slaughter the chnncc
te effect his six-hour demlnntlnn of the
penitentiary, disarm guards, lock the
warden nnd his family in the death cell,
secure civilian attire nnd nn automo
bile for the escape, nnd offer freedom te
nil the convicts who wished te join him. 1
Heward, the man who slew Slnughter,
is twtnty-llve years old. He wns re
ceived nt the penitentiary last March
te serve three years for forgery. He
was 11 railroad man in Het Springs,
ami was charged witli fraudulently
drawing tiinii pay fiem the railroad
hy means of fergul passes
Shortly after Heward was leceived

Inter, however, when goods taken from
the commissary wc;re believed te have
been st lien by him, his stntus ns trusty
was revoked. Prison authorities Snld
tbut his rc;nrd wns net n geed one.
Slnughter's plnn for escnpe began te
take form yesterday evening, when,
feigning illness, he summoned n gunrd
und nsked for n blanket. The gunrd
entered the dentil cell, where Slaughter
was te be quartered until December 10,
the date set for his electrocution, nnd
advnncd te the desperado's cot. lic
it as met with 11 gun In the bandit's
hnnds. The gunrd was disarmed nnd
I lien taken te the warden's ellice. where
three ether giuiids were disarmed while
Slaughter used a guard for protection.
He then locked the guards in n cell.
Continuing te the hospital ward.
Slaughter forced a nurse te lead him
te the warden's home. He made the
warden and his fnmil.t return te the
prison, locking them in tln death 1 ell.
and the one adjoining.
Leaving tlie piisen, Slaughter and Ills
companions took un automobile, ami
the Hies ft 0111 another ueaib.i, and
e-caped, after altiitiig themseltes in
civilian clothing.
Posses fuim Het Spiings, Little
l!eck, ltcutnu und iiciuhy towns took
up the chase, after the light nt Iten Iten

paity Inte the weeds of Siillnn Count),
