The Farmers and Merchants Bank Sue
tho CItY.

The Farmers and Merchants Bank Sues
tho CITY.
Quite an important suit was begun
yesterday against the city Of Los Ange-
les By the Farmers and Merchants
bank.
The questions involved have hereto
fore been in the courts, but the bank
has revived them again.
They have reference to the assessment
OF the bank last year, and the action is
brought to recover taxes paid under pro-
test.
1t is averred in the complaint that the
bank delivered a statement of all its
sssessable property to the city assessor
in May, 1898.
In July, 1898, the assessor included in
its assessable property United States
treasury certificates Issued by the sub
treasury OF San Francisco to the amount
of $4,000, bondn to the amount oil
SIC, 900 and solvent credits $38, $50.
In the bonds were included bonds of
the Spring Valley Water company OF
the face value of $4l, 900.
The bank applied for a reduction to
the city council, sitting as board OF
equalization, which was refused.
The contention OF the bank is that
the treasury certificates were exempt /;
that the Spring Valley bonds were Sc
cured by deed of trust on the prop
erty of the company, no part of it being
in Los Angeles, and that the assessment
was double taxation.
1t is also commended that the assess
ment OF solvent credits was unauthor-
lied and void because the plaintiff was
not possessed on the first Monday in
March, 1898. of any solvent credits over
and above the amount owed to the bona
fide residents of this state unsecured,
and deduction of it's debts from SOL
vent credits is a right vested in the
plaintiff and mandatory.
The plaintiffs paid taxes under the
items of assessment complained of
amounting to 1914 %, under protest to
Tax Collector Wade. They pray for
judgment for that amount.

A Deputy Fish Commissioner Begins a
Novel Case.
A novel charge was filed yesterday in
Justice Bartholomew court against
Robert Bell, fisherman Of Wilmington.
The complaint was made by A. O..
Fletcher, deputy in the employ OF the
ish commissioners.
He com plains OF Bell thsto February
18th he fshsd in the waters OF the state
OF California at Wilmington without a
license.
This ia the first case OF the kind ever
brought in the courts and the deputy is
evidently trying TO make test case of
it.
The sturdy fishermen OF San Pedro and
'long shore will not take kindly to this
attempt to make them pay license for
pulling out the tinny inhabitants of the
