day, in the case of the people ex rel. George J.
Gould ana another. executors, against Edward
=. Barker and another, Commissioners OF Taxes
OF the city of New York. affirmed, with costs,
the order appealed from. The only question
presented by the appeal was the validity OF an
assessment OF personal estate made by the de-
PENDANTS as Commissioners of Taxes upon the
relators executors and trustees under the
will OF the late Jay Gould. Tho assessment was
upon Sl0,oOo,oo0 personal property. The ex-
ecutors of Mr.. Gouid's estate applied to the de-
PENDANTS as Commissioners of Taxes for can
collation. of the assessment aud the application
was denied. They then procured n writ OF
the action Of the defendants which, on tho
hearing. was dismissed, and this decision was
affirmed at General Term.
The argument in the Court of Appeals was
confined to tue question Of the power in the de-
PENDANTS to make tho assessment on July o.
1893 Judge O'Brien. who writes the opinion.
in which all the Judges concur, says that tiie
executors resided. and were personally within
tho Jurisdiction OF the Conn issioners. and the
assessment in form was In compliance with all
the legal formalities requisite To constitute a
valid charge against the executors or trustees
for the personal estate in their possession or un-
