ALBANY. Feb "a. - The dfeater New York
bill came up as a special order In the SEN
ate to-day. Senator Cantor moved to strike
out the provision for uniformity in taxa
ton. He said that he was in favor OF sub
hitting the question OF consolidation TO
vote OF the people. but he did not believe In
putting In n stipulation that the tax rate
should be uniform In ali the territory 10 be az
fected. II was unjust to the people OF New
York. who now have low tax rate and COM
paratively small bonded Indebtedness
Senator Reynolds OF Brooklyn said that he
regarded the equal taxation feature as one Of
the most important In the bill. New York city
should pay something to support Brooklyn. as
Brooklyn was already q part OF New York in q
business sense. and It's population made New
York's real estate valuable. The people OF
Brooklyn do not want the consolidation unless
there IL going to be uniformity in taxation.
New York needed Brooklyn. and Brooklyn
should get compensation for the union by an
equal tax rate with New York. II Brooklyn
was not going to get some hene1t out Of the
consolidation there was no reason for Brook
lyn's consentinR to IL.
Senator Cantor repeated that he saw no
reason for putting this stipulation in the bill.
The bill had passed the Assembly without
this amendment. and to insert the amend
ment In the Senate was to i'm peril the passage
OF the bill. II was Brooklyn that had every
thing 10 gain By the consolidation. and not
New York.
Senator Mcmahon said that he was opposed
to annexation because New York was already
the best governed city In the country. with q
low tax rate and Q comparatively small
bonded indebtedness The kind OF govern
ment Brooklyn has was shown by the Brook
Ign tax rate and the Brooklyn Indebtedness
Tho consolidation was q plan to make New
pal esSsrnmsnt. Senator McMsSon thought
that II the vote in New York city was adverse
Senator Guy said that, although no was op-
posed to consolidation he believed that the
people should vote on the question as they
pleased. A great deal could be said In favor OF
