PROBLEM OF TAXATION.

Single Tax Club Asks a Hearing Before
the Board of Trade.
The following letter, which explains
itself, has been addressed to Secretary
Wight, of the board of trade, by DR..
G Geddes, secretary of the Single Tax
Club of this city:
washington, Feb 81, 1895.
John B. Wight, esq, Secretary Board of
Trade, Washington, ID. c.:
Dear Sir-The Single Tax Club of
this city, believing that the organiza-
ton of which you are secretary, and
which in its personnel embodies represen-
tatives of so many branches of industry,
must be Interested in arriving at the Eolu-
ton of the problem of taxation, instructs
me to ask public hearing upon this
subject before the board of trade Cor Mr..
Henry e. Davis and Mr.. Robert 3. Lines,
of this city, both gentlemen being we'll
known lawyers and careful students OF
the question indicated. Owing to The fact
that Mr.. Lines must be absent from the
city until the first part of April, it IS sug
gested, if agreeable to you, that such
hearing take place about the middle Of
that month.
ut is believed by many that to destroy
the muddle and contradictions of our
present want of system in taxation, to
dissipate the paralyzing burdens imposed
upon all industry, the crushing weight of
which is now being fe:t throughout the
District as wen as over the country at
large, there must be some underlying
principle which, if unswervingly followed,
will bring content and prosperity. To
search for this principle is to follow a
course which prudence dictates. To lead
in the search would seem to be duty
especially incumbent upon such an organi-
Zatfon as the board of trade.
I'VE feel sure that the high reputation
of the gentlemen here specially referred
to will commend them to you as able to
instruct and enlighten upon subject
which is not in reality abstruse, but only
made to appear so by confusion of thought.
tAn early answer would be highly
appreciated by yours, very respectfully

TROUBLE FROM A TRADE.

Suit OF Mrs E. F. BeaIe and John II. Nc.
Lean A ainst John b. Larner.
John r. Mclean and Mrs. Mary E. Beale,
widow of tue late Admiral Edward F.
Beaie, yesterday sued John B. Larner to
have vacated an assignment of a pIomis-
sorry note on the ground that il was pro-
CURED by fraud and deceit. 1t is also
asked that mortgage by which the note
was secured be brought into court and
handed over TO Mrs. b. ale; t1.at Mr. Iarner
be required to give a quit claim deed 10 lU2
acres OF land in the District, and that he
be restrained fIom transferring or encum-
bering the property.
The action grows out of a trade made by
Admiral Ieale in 1854. on Nay 8 that
year he sold TO B. F. GHbtrt. Eizabeth's
Delight, tract of l02 acres in Prince
George county, Md, near Takoma Park,
for 81 GOO, OF winch $1,000 was cash,
the remainder in two sc 900 notes secured
by mortgage.
Gilbert defaulted in payment and Admiral
Beale was about 10 forecloSe when he man.
aged 10 pay Sl,GG0 and securLd an ex-
tension. Gilbert then sold a J ali interest
in his equity TO DR.. r. c. Flower, of Boston.
Both delaulted, but foreclosure proceed
ings were put of, ana Iinaily the inst note
was paid.
WhiIe time OF payment was being deferred
INT liOAtS NGIc NuIlicu tftI W OOun H. MI
Lean, Admiral Beales son-in-law. Finally
when foreclosure was about to be made
Gilbert and Flower got Admiral Beale aud
his attorney, r. b. Chew, 10 meet them and
Mr.. Ford Combs, DR.. Flowers attorney,
at the Columbia National Bank. There
they paid the last note. and Admiral Beale,
at their request, made an assignment of it
with the mortgage securing it to John B.
Larner.
Gilbert and Flower deraulted in their pay
ment TO Larner and Larner had the property
sold at Upper Marlboro last year and bought
it for $4,000. This left a balance of
81. 1866 due him on his note, and lc sued
Mr.. Mclean TO recoverit.
The bill asserts tlat Mr. McLean's name
appears on the note as an inadvertence and
has 10 business TO be there. Mr.. Mclean
received nothing for tie note. 1t is also
stated that Mt. Larner interlined the words
without recourse" over Admiral Beale's
name 20 as 10 free him from obligation
and hold Mr Mclean. Mrs. Beale, il is
stated, only asks TO he placed where her
husband was before tie transaction with
Laner, and she viii gladly repay to kim
all that lie has paid out on account of the
note held 10y ker husband.
This offer was made to Mr.. Larner
through Mr. TuxtCn Beale and Mr.. Larner
