FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, JUNE 0, 1898. Value of Coal I,un<l Is Fixed. The county commissioners have finally fixed the value of coal land at SSO per foot depth per acre. The meeting at which tlis was done was largely at tended and a lot of testimony was taken. A. H. McCliutock, Thomas 11. Atherton and George It. Bedford represented the coal operators and John M. Garinan and T. I). Shea the taxpayers. G. L. Ilal sey represented the county. The wit nesses included civil engineers, mine superintendents, assessors, managers of coal companies and coal operators. The witnesses variously estimated the value of coal land at from $7 to $l4O per foot. When the subject had been thoroughly discussed, Attorney Ilalsey asked every one hut commissioners and assessors to retire from the room. The question of making SSO a foot the average was thoroughly discussed and when the vote was taken the prop( si tion was endorsed by nine-tenths of tin assessors. This will bo the basis of assessment on all coal property and the commissioners will now set a day for the revision and equalization of assessments and the owners of the property will be heard. Anthracite's Heavy Tolls. In discussing freight rates on coal the Anthracite Coal Operators' Letter for June states that soft coal has been sold and delivered in Now England at a price that nets but $1.20 free on board at Philadelphia. It allots (H) cents of this to the operator for his coal and 00 cents to the railroad for freight. From Elkins, W. Va., to Philadelphia is 400 miles and at 00 cents a ton freight is equivalent to 1.5 mills per ton per mile; from South Fork, a distance of 207 miles, the freight rate is 2.3 mills per ton per mile; from Patton to Philadelphia, 347 miles, the rate is 1.7 mills a mile, and from Snow shoe, 200 miles, it Is 2.3 mills. As against these, extremely low freight rates, anthracite coal is taxed from 7 to 15 mills per ton per mile, the most glaring discrimination in rates ever re corded. The engineers engaged in surveying the route of the new coal carrying rail road, to ho built by Kcranton operators to tidewater, have completed their pre liminary survey of the line as far as the New .Jersey shore of the Delaware river. No Tax on Hicycle*. The supreme court has handed down a decision affirming the opining of .lodge Morrison in the case of Densmore ot. al. vs. city of Erie. The city of Erie passed an ordinance taxing bicycles $1 each. The League of American Wheelmen contested the enforcement of the ordin ance. The case was decided against the city. An appeal was taken to the supreme court and a decision was given that bicycles used on the streets are vehicles and are entitled to the same right as carriages drawn by horses. That owners of bicycles have an inde foasable right to use the streets for their bicycles subject only to such reasonable and uniform restrictions and regulations as can bo imposed as a police regulation for the safety and comfort of the public.
