TAXATION IN LONDON COMPARED WITH

The rate that Philadelphia pays. A gentleman
here was kind enough to show me all his tax
bills and his case l am about to quote He
occupies in the heart of London, not very far
from the Bank of England a large building
recently erected in substantial style. which
fronts about IS feet on st. Bartholomew

the tenant and not the landlord pays the taxes
but they are assessed, as with us on the real
estate. This building has rental value of
tSN,or 81 $50, and if lt could be bought at all
which Il could not-he said he would be willing
to give SIS zoo or $50,GO for it. The rentals ne
said, were usually estimated at from three 10

value of the property, the tenant, in addition,
pay ing the taxes We're this property in Phil

are. al an approximation 10 their value at A

for his entire municipal tax Sl25, of which
about StS was the poor rate and the remain
der, OF about 81, supplied every municipal
charge, including about everything for which
We pay taxes in Philadelphia. This sum was
the aggregate of all his real estate taxes for
