Reduced. I'D
Aid. Leithauser Receives a
Quiet Snub--City Council
Addenda.

City Comptroller Roche laid before
the common council last night his esti-
mate for the tax levy for 1890. The
document presented in detail all of the
estimated receipts and expenditures of
the city government for the year. for
which the tax levy must be fixed on or
before Tuesday next. The report was
referred, without reading, to the
committee on ways and means
and taxes, who will meet with the
comptroller tomorrow afternoon at 2:3O
to consider its recommendations. They
will report at special meeting of the
council Monday night, when the final
action necessary will be taken. Comp
troller ROche'S estimate is based upon
an assessed valuation of S120, ZOO. 600.
He sums up in general the tax require
mentS for city purposes as follows:

mate (balanee of COST. .25 10000
Total for city purposes..9. S1.194. 900
To the above estimate for city pur-
poses is added tax of 2.90 mills for
state purposes, mills for county pur-
poses, and $50 mills for the board of
education, making a total estimate of
1875 mills. The report contains Ger
tain recommendation by which the
comptroller would materially lower this
estimate. 1t is suggested that by re-
funding the per cent bonds due in 1890
the city rate could be reduced $40 of
q mill. 1t is also suggested that re-
ductiOn be made in the estimate by the
board of education for school buildings
contemplated in 1890, but for which no
contracts have been let, reducing the
levy for educational purposes half
mill. The adoption of Comptroller
Roche's suggestions would result in a
reduction of the estimate submitted to
the very low rate of but trifle over IS
mills. Owing to the fact that some assess
ment districts are exempt from taxation
for the city's existing. indebtedness at
the time of their annexation, the taxa
ton by districts will vary somewhat.
According to the figures submitted. the
levy for the old First, Second. Third,
Fourth and Fifth wards, which bear
the same assessment district numbers,
would be Is mills; for the Sixth ward,
or Sixth assessment district, the levy
would be 17.70 mills; for the Seventh
district, embracing Rose and Reserve
townships. 1850 mills; for the Eighth
district, embracing all of the terri
tory beyond Dale street annexed in
1872, Is mills; for the Ninth district,
embracing that part of Little Canada
and Mclean townships annexed in 1855,
1850 mills; for the Tenth district, en-
bTacing that portion of Mclean town

total expenditures of the city, provided

Lolita, the actress, has won her suit
against the st. Paul Opera House COM

Judge Nelson filed decision yesterday
which gives the YiyacIous little star
Judgment in the sum Of $1,000 against
the Davidson concern. 1t will be re-
membered, last fall Lolita proposed to
purchase the Grand and a contract for
the deed was drawn up between her
and the Opery house company. For the
company Z. Z. Davidson. treasurer, and
Andrew Delaney, secretary. signed the
contract and the little actress put up
5000 as earnest money. Subsequently
Lolita changed her mind as to buying
the house and asked the DavidSonS to
refund the $1,000. But this the David
sons refused to do, hencei the suit.
The court holds that Il. E. Day-
idSou I and Andrew Delaney had
neither the power or authority to
enter into or execute the contract. That
entirety and a satisfaction if the whole
was necessary to bind the parties there
to. That by the passage of the resolu-
ton of Sept. %, 1888, the St.Paul Grand
Opera House company repudiated the
contract of Sept. 10 and declined to
ratify the act of the treasurer Secre-
tary who executed it, and Lolita Nj.
Crabtree was thus released from all OBJ
legation to perform on her part, and she
withdrew from the same, as she had a
right to do. That the contract of Sept
10 being treated by the company as i'm
perfect and imperative and not bind
ing obligation, Lolita NJ. CraJtree could
recover the amount paid at the time the
contract was executed. That the reso-
luton of Oct 2, amending that of Sept.
%, if it is a ratification of the contract
of Sept. 10, came too late, and that the
minds of the parties never met so as to
form a nnrfpnf and nnRratiVa contract
