EAST BOUND FREIGHT RATES.

Whole Day discussing Them.

The Transcontinental Association Spends a
Whole Day Discussing Them.
New YORK, Aug. 24-The meeting Of the
Transcontinental Railroad association, re-
suis Of the general call sent out from St.
Louis headquarters by Chairman Vining
On Aug. 9, was called TO order this morn
ing. The principal object of the meeting
is to settle the question relative to the
matter of the division of the payment Of q
yearly subsidy to the Pacific Mail Steam
ship company. The general impression
seems TO be that the South Pacific com
psny will be asked to pay the entire
amount.
The question as to the reduction of the
east bound rates is also one of considerable
Importance Chairman Vining preEided at
the meeting at which were represented
nearly all the continental lines.
The association devoted the day to dis
GUESSING the reduction of east-bound
freight rates, and the Pacific Mail steam
ship subsidy question, adjusting over and
uDder charges and The establishment of q
uniform bill of lnding. George Odds Of
the Canadian Pacific failed to arrive how
ever, aud no firal action was taken in any
thing considered. as Mr.. Dodge's presence
was desired before doing so and the meet
morning.
The discussion was informal, that con-
corning the reduction Of east-bound
freight rates so that the roads of the asso-
citation could compete with American
Clipper ships sailing from San Francisco
to New York. taking up the most of the
afternoon.
The subject OF the adjustment Of under
and over charges was referred to the com
mittee TO formulate report.
1t is hoped by the association members
that some plan can be arrived at where
such under or over charges can be adjusted
at association headquarters instead of be-
ing done oy the present method, which in
wolves v0luminous and long drawn out
correspondence between the roads separ-
ately.
Regarding the uniform bill of lading, it
decided that nothing could be done, as the
many efforts in this matter heretofore
proved useless.

zrnNis pANK CASE


The following is the opinion OF the city
attorney on the question presented Tues
day night b. Zion's Servings Bank.
To the Honorable City Council sitting as a
board OF equalization of taxes for the city OF
Salt Lake.
GENTLEMEN--Your honorable board at your
last evenings meeting referred 10 me the claim
for a reduction OF taxes made by Zion's Savings
bank OF this city, which is now before me. ii
seems the bank claims that they have been
assessed at too high figure; that instead of
having on hands at the time of the assessment
the amount oil personal property for which it is
assessed there was only on hands $4,000 in
Cash and TO that extent. and that only. in addi.
tion to the real estate and improvements
should the bank be assessed.
section s0l1 OF the revenue law OF 1888 makes
shares OF stock OF national banks assessibe to
the shareholders.
Section 2J11. Shares OF stock in corpora.
lions other than national banks when the same
are taxable, money and taxable bonds shall be
listed, y etc
Subdivision Q, of Section 2O09, exempts
shares of stock in corporations when the
property OF the corporation Is taxable" 1t
seems the property of the corporation is tax
able and is IN TACT really taxed in this case and
such being the case, reading the two sections
together, the capital stock or shares of stock
representing the capital cannot be taxed.
1t Is further claimed that all the capital of
the corporation, incluoing the surplus, except
$4,000, ID loaned out and secured by mortgages
and deeds OF trust on property which is tax
able, and therefore the same is not taxable. II
this be true am OF the opinion that all such
capital stock or shares OF stock would be ex-
empt
If 1 am not mistaken the council for the bank
claimed that 1t was exempt from paying taxes
on money held by the bank which has been de-
posted by customers, on the ground that they
were indebted Tor the amount to the customers.
When money is deposited generally, the re-
lation OF debtor and creditor exist as between
the bank and customer; the money is the
money Of the bank, and fail to find any law
exempting any such money from taxation
while in the possession OF the bank.
Any personal property other than money,
such as bank furniture, ETC., Is certainly
assessable. E. D. HOGE. City Att orney

The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1892-08-25
In the following cases over-valuation
was claimed, and they were referred:

Judge Sutherland. aher the recorder had
read The petition OF the banks, published
IN THE HERALD several days ago, al
dressed the council in behalf of the banks
and claimed they had been discrimiuated
against in the assessment. He claimed
tue banks were entitled to reduction
He suggested that the board, or COM
mittee, give one day to the consideration oil
the question. He said tho city attorney
was in error in his opinion in reference te
banks being prohibited from loaniDe
money on real estate security.
Hardy moved that the banks be heard al
once, as they were all represen ted.
Loofbourow thought it was too late tc
begin at once and thought the better way
was to appoint a committee to hear the
question, and made motion to that effect.
The city attorney said 1t would take q
day or longer TO investigate the matter.
Rich moved that the board sit as q body
in hearing the complaints OF the banks.
This was voted down, and the committee
was appointed as follows: Horn, Want
land, Evans, Simondi, POLAND.
