STANDARD OILS POVERTY.
Asks Brooklyn's Assessors to Re-
duoe Its Taxes Nearly S500,000.
Says Its Property on Newtown Creek
Has Greatly DEPRECATED.

The enterprise OF the Standard Oil
Company in attempting to control the
earth was again demonstrated this
morning when W. Il. Emerson appeared
before the Brooklyn Board of Assessors
to protest against the assessments
levied on the property of the corpora
ton in the Seventeenth Ward. Mr..
Emerson requested reductions in the
asse ssments are said to be greater than
any made by other corporations in
years.
President Hardness and the Board
we're completely taken by surprise when
Mr.. Emerson presented his figures. Had
he asked to have the corporation ex-
empted from all taxation on the ground
that 1t was a charitable institution the
Board could not have looked more as
tonished.
Mr.. Emerson asked to have the Com
pany's assessment OF $3.50. $50 reduced to
Sl0G, $50. The assessment of $4,000 he
wanted recorded at $4,000, and the as
sessments of 81. 900 and $4,000 ne thought
should be Jumped under one bead at
81 600.
The excuse for such enormous cuts.
Mr.. Emerson said. was the depreciation
of the value of the Company's property:
Somebody suggested that property had
over Brooklyn. but Mr.. Emerson in
sisted that Seventeenth Ward property
had deprecated. The Company's prop
erty consists of oil works and tanks on
Newtown Creek.
Mr.. Emerson said the polluted water
of the creek injured the bottoms Of
vessels, and he thought the Company
might remove the plant to Bayonne,
The matter was referred to commit
tee for consideration.

Matinee Every Day.
From the Washington Post.

v
1t is really very dull day in the House
which does not see an interesting little
scrap between the speaker and Mr..
Reed, The one yesterday was short but
spicy.
In the middle of a roll call upon a reso-
luton granting the committee on agri-
culture a messenger Mr., Hatch asked per-
mission to make statement Mr.. Reed
was on his feet in an instant.
There is a roll call going on he said,
land after the severe treatment of the
other day it would look rather queer to
see it interrupted even by a request for
unanimous consent"
THE gentleman from Maine objects"
promptly remarked the speaker
1.-The gentleman from Maine did not OBJ
ject," replied Mr.. Reed, turning and
facing the speaker.
The gentleman can not assume the at
titude he does and then say he does not
object" said the speaker emphatically,
"for he did"
MY statement is in the Record, and
shows for ITSELF" retorted Mr. Reed
And so is the statement of the chair, i"
replied Mr.. Crisp.
1T is simply question of yeracity,"
persisted Mr.. Reed, and then both aenJle-
men, having reached the limit of parlia-
mentary language, let the matter drop.
