NEW ASSESSMENT
HAS BEEN ORDERED
Board of Revision and Appeals Comes to
a Decision.
HARMFUL EFFECT IS CLAIMED
.Mr. t biltciidcn hays i,nvsuits Will
Follow any Attempt to Impose In
just Burdens on the Central City..
fctutciiiciit by .Mr. Oliver and Inter
view with Ascsor Fowler.
After some hesitation the board of
revision anil appeals yesterday decided
upon a new assessment. Opponents of
the project arKueil with them that it
was inadvisable to no to the expense of
a new general assessment this year In
view of tin; fact that next year the
regular trlennlel afsessment Is due.
The adherents of the movement con
tended that the inequalities of the pres
ent assessment are so numerous and of
such a llugiant nature that it would
be a great Injustice to those who are
bearing more than their Just share of
the burden of tnxation to allow the
abuse to continue, even for u year when
there are means at hand to prevent it.
Those who favored the measure are
from the outside wards; those against
it are the central city couneilmen.
Every member of the board of appeals
Is from an outlying ward. The out
lying wards won.
The power of the board to order a
new assessment is found in the follow
ing excerpt from the act creating the
body:
Said board, a majority of whom shall
constitute a quorum, may in nny year
other than a triennial year, if they shall
deem a new assessment necessary, on or
before the first day of September, issue
their precept to the city nsscssors requir
ing them to make out and return a full,
just and equal nsse?ment of property
within the city, or such parts thereof as
the said hoard of revision may deem ad
visable, and they shall take and receive
the triennial anil yearly assessments as
returned by the board of city assessors,
and shall have power and authority to re
vise, equalize or alter such assessments
In nny and every year by Increasing or
reduciim the valuations, either in indi
vidual fuses or by wanlS or parts of
wards.
The new nssesinent Involves the ex
penditure of about $4,000 for assistant
assessors, new books nnd the like.
There Is no appropriation nt present
for such nn expense nnd the assessors
will be compelled to wait till next year
for their pny.
air. Oliver, one of the niemliers of the
hoard, said:
"We were prompted to make this
move by the discoveries we have made
durlny the past few months in going
over the last assessment. There are
hundreds or eases of llagrantly unjust
discrimination. This is true to a great
er or less extent throughout the entire
city, but it. is inure apparent in the
central city wards. We have one in
stance of a properly for which the own
er refused a cash offer of LWiMio which
Is assessed for only $.'l,lnm. There are
iiuiuoiotis oilier easts almost as bad.
but this one Is sudiclent to serve ns nn
illustration."
Mr Chittenden, who foticht the move
ment all along nnd who prevented
select council fnon reconsidering its
adverse action on the resolution advis
ing I he new assessment, said upon
learning or the board s action: "There
is going to be no end of mischief created
by this move. Those members, of the
board of revision and appeals imagine
that central city property is under
valued, simply because they have dis
covered a few cases of Inequitable
assessment uinl because they are bus
ing their comparisons in I he fancy
prices which a few lots brought during
the recent real estate boom, eiiglneerei
by the real estate agents. The cenlral
city properly holders will not submit
to this injust attempt to Increase the
city's valuation at their expense and
you can rely upon It that some very
lively litigation will result.
"The bun rd has power to correct nny
inaccuracies that may come to their
attention and they should have been
satisfied to do this and not go to the
expense of having1 twenty-one addi
tional assessors to disturb the assess
ment throughout the whole city. The
creation of those) twenty-one new of
liceis, to my way of thinking, did not
militate In any way against the project
In the mind's of the members of the
board."
C. S. Fowler of the bonrd of assess-irs.
admitted that they bad advised In favor
of a new assessment. He said he did
not rare to discuss the present assess
ment for fear it might be taken as
criticism of his predecessors, who made
It. Jn making the new assessment,
however, lie would say, the system em
ployed In former years would be de
parted from In many particulars, fine
of these and the most important Is the
method of fixing the value of property.
The law directs that the valuation
shnll be placed nt a figure representing
what In the judgment of the assessors
would be a fair price at a forced sale.
Mr. Fowler remarked that land here
tofore has been assessed at one-third
of its value and Improvement?" at one
half. This, besides being .Illegal, ns
City Solicitor Torrey has decided, puts
a premium on idle land and, if for no
other reason than the latter, should
be disproved of. The present assessors
propose to assess all property nlike at
one-third its market value. The loss in
revenue by this decrease in the valua
tion of Improvements will, they expect,
be more than entirely made up for In
the general increase, in valuation which
the new assessment contemplates.

TURNPIKE MUDDLE.
City
Will Take Chances and Repair
the Providence and Abing
ton Turnpike.
Messrs. Roche, Lansing and Manley,
of the special committee appointed to
look after the Ablngton Turnpike case,
met last night in the city clerk's of
fice and passed a resolution directing
Mr. Roche, who Is chairman of the com
mittee, to confer with Attorney S. II.
Price with a view to get an opinion
from the latter as to whether the city
owns the part of the turnpike within
Its limits; if so what steps are necessary
to establish such ownership, and if it
does not own the road, how to get pos
session of it ut the earliest possible
moment.
While the committee was deliberating
a meeting of common council was in
session und the following communica
tion was rend from Mayor ISniley:
To the Honorable the Select and Common
Councils of the City of Scranton.
Gentlemen: The Scranton and Ablngton
Turnpike company Informs me that the
portion of the Ablngton turnpike within
the city limits needs immediate repairs,
and having called the attention of Mr.
C. R. Kinsley, street commissioner to the
matter, he says that on account of ex
tensive travel on said turnpike it would
be well to put It In good condition at once.
T therefore recommend that an appro
priation of not exceeding ll.iiOO be pro
vided for improving said turnpike at the
earliest possible date.
Yours very respectfully,
James G. Bailey, Mayor.
After a lengthy discussion it was re
ferred to the streets and bridges com
mittee with instructions to bring In an
ordinance providing for the appropria
tion. The communication was the result
of a conference ill the mayor's office
yesterday morning among the mayor.
Street Commissioner Kinsley, City Con
troller Robinson and Atutrney S. B.
Price. Mr. Price is special attorney for
thu city in the case. He stated that
the company, us his opinion, has for
feited its charter and cannot legally
collect toll, ns the turnpike Is now less
tluin two miles long. The supreme
court has decided that toll cannot bt
collected on a road less than three.
miles long.
The Scranton Traction company is
anxious to extend its line out West
Market street. It had u charter for a
road along the route, but It has expired.
The charter can be renewed If the com
pany cull get the right of way from
councils. Crucial Manager Silliinaii is
willing to shale the exnelise of grad
ing and paving the street provided the
property owners consent. Councilman
drier Is of the opinion that the owners
are not ready yet lo assume this im
provement, and as far us they are con
cerned that it will suit them better to
liefer grading und paving for u few
years. They are anxious enough for
street car service, but do not want
the burden of expense that it would
entail.
